After switching our daughter from another nursery twice it very quickly became clear that Big Discoveries wasn’t like the others! They really do care about your children like you do and really engage with teaching your children life skills and everything you want them to learn before school. We quickly could see that our little girl finally felt comfortable and wasn’t crying at drop off anymore, she was happy and loved going into nursery! She comes home messy most days which to me is a sign she has had a good busy day 😊 All the staff are friendly and very helpful, they have handled Covid perfectly and I honestly can’t fault them, I would recommend them to anyone looking for a childcare provider in the area
