Inclusion & environment
Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive exceptional support. The special educational needs coordinator is extremely knowledgeable and proactive in supporting children and their families. She supports staff in recognising when children may need extra support and how to implement effective strategies. This means that children with SEND make excellent progress.
Children freely explore the natural play environment, deeply engaged in the meaningful learning experiences on offer. The indoor and outdoor environments offer children exciting areas to explore and build on their physical skills and strength.
Best nursery and it’s team are in every way wonderful. Supportive, caring, very in tune with each child’s needs and puts so much focus and time into each activity the children do. We are well informed throughout the day through an easy to use app. My daughter has thrived at Best - it has been a joy sending her there knowing she is being so well looked after, is learning so many interesting things and that she is in such a lovely environment. I really cannot recommend this nursery or the team anymore. Thank you Best! You really go above and beyond.
Read on GoogleThis nursery is situated in a fantastic location for my family. It is close to Leeds City Centre and on a main travel route. The learning spaces are exceptional. The environment both inside and out are very engaging and allow my children to build their confidence. The staff at the nursery are very attentive to the children and tend to each child's indvidual needs. They build strong relationships with the children which allow the children to feel at home and confident in the nursery environment and with their key workers. The management team are absolutely fantastic. They are warm, friendly and very passionate about childcare. They know each child individually and are very open and approachable. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe, friendly and happy environment for their child or children.
Read on GoogleI can’t thank all the nurturers at Best enough for all the wonderful care and attention they give to my two boys - one is in the 2+ room and the other is in the baby room. You can tell they all care deeply about our sons’ development and have formed amazing bonds with them. The activities are varied (yoga, French, baby ballet and more) and the children are taken on regular outings. We are invited as parents to attend performances by the children and on a regular basis into the nursery to do crafts and other activities with them at pick up. One of my sons has a few extra needs and they have done so much to aid his development by making specialist plans and helpful routines for him. We feel very supported as parents and very lucky to have found the nursery.
Read on GoogleMy son has attended nursery for the past five months, I have been really impressed so far with the whole experience especially in light of Covid. Even though I am not allowed to enter the nursery because of Covid during drop offs and collections, there is nothing as a parent I feel I am missing out on due to the excellent online system that enables me to see activities throughout the day and provides in depth information about development and progress it’s so easy to use. The staff are so friendly and feedback at the end of each day is always personal to my child nothing is too much trouble for the team and most importantly they are all so smiley and welcoming
Read on GoogleUnfortunately I cannot give this nursery a good review at all because I had to take my very happily settled son out after less than six months because the owners decided that they no longer wanted to provide the sessions they originally agreed to when i registered my son there last year. We have been so let down by the nursery where I thought my son's best interests were important to them, clearly they were not important enough to the owners who decided to cause unnecessary distress to my child because I had to take him out and settle him elsewhere.
