After having over a year with just me looking after my daughter she found it a real shock going into nursery so I could go back to work. It took abit longer to settle her in than was planned for but they really reassured me that it will be fine and she will grow to love it there. Well after almost 6 months there she loves it! No tears,she comes home saying new words that she has learnt. All the staff know each child even if they are not in the same room. I am so happy we picked bubbles.
