My son has been coming here since it opened last year. Our original nursery wasn't great and had regular staff changes so I switched to a childminder. This then proved difficult when they had annual leave as I had no childcare. It was a difficult decision moving him again but it was the best move we could have done. The staff have stayed the same with new faces being new staff due to expansion. I can have a chat to any staff member when I collect him and each know what he's been up to, as if it's been 1-1 all day. Can't rate them higher than a 5 so a 5 will have to do!

Horrible nursurey staff are bully’s, children are sat doing the same activities every day. When you say you have an issue with the way your child is being treated due to bite marks on my child almost every day they shrug it off.

Happy children, happy parents! The nursery provides a safe, secure, happy and relaxed environment for the children, with plenty of activities for curious little minds. The staff are second to none, providing outstanding care for the children and putting any nervous parents minds and worries at ease. My son has progressed in leaps and bounds since starting here in January, has forged relationships and friendships through the patience, values and support of all the staff here. The nursery itself is set in lovely surroundings with a fantastic outside play area and an abundance of toys and activities to please every child, educational aswell as fun. All pros and no cons for this nursery, I couldnt ask for a better setting to start my son on his journey

Our two little boys love going to Blossoms. The oldest has made so much progress there and his confidence has grown massively. the youngest has recently started and is already loving it. The staff are exceptional and friendly and it has a real family feel.

I don't know where to start... Blossoms is such a welcoming nursery every single staff member who works at this nursery is incredible and so welcoming to the children and parents. The nursery is so clean and such an imaginitive place for children to grow and learn new skills. Blossoms really do go the extra mile to accomodate my needs and are very understanding with some of the issues my family face and give my daughter loads of extra support when shes having a 'emotional day' nothing is ever too much trouble. The parents facebook page is a blessing it saves me calling them 24/7 for updates as everything the children do throughout the day gets uploaded on the childs parents page. I can't recommend blossoms enough its all about the children at this nursery. Thanks for looking after my little girl so well ❤
