We’ve had such a positive experience with this nursery already. My son had a great first day and settled in much better than we expected, which was incredibly reassuring. The staff kept us constantly updated throughout the day with messages is the app, which really put our minds at ease. Everyone was kind, attentive, and clearly cares about the children. We’re so happy with our choice and feel confident leaving our son in their care.

My daughter’s been at this nursery for about two months now, and we’re really happy with it! All the staff are so lovely and make us feel really comfortable leaving her there. The room is always clean and has loads of different toys and activities to keep her busy. I also love the app they use – it’s great getting little updates and pictures throughout the day. Couldn’t be happier with the nursery so far!

I couldn’t recommend banana moon enough! , I have never felt so at ease about leaving my daughter with others , All staff are kind supportive of both me and my daughter and on board with any change in my daughters care. I am thankful for her key worker zanj , she has made this experience wonderful for both me and my daughter, My daughter adores all the staff in the room and always has a smile on her face when i leave till when i pick her up. Ive never had to complain once about anything which is hard to find nowadays when nursery’s dont take the time to understand and get to know children one on one. Banana moon has catered for mine and my child’s needs in every way possible making me feel so at ease as a nervous mum. The best nursery around! Couldn’t ask for a better team to be there to help my child develop !

My little boy has been at the nursery for three months, and the care he receives is great. The staff are genuinely attentive, nurturing, and make him feel safe and supported. He’s grown in confidence and comes home happy every day. I’m really grateful for the wonderful team.

My boys have recently joined this brand new nursery and I couldn’t be happier. The staff are very caring and knowledgeable, they really take their time with my kids, who have settled in very quickly. The manager is also amazing, and she remembers all the little details about my boys which I think it’s quite amazing with all the kids they look after. It’s a really good nursery which I would recommend.
