We would absolutely recommend this nursery to anyone! All of my children have attended during their early years and we have received the most caring treatment throughout their time here. The staff are attentive, caring and professional at all times. The owner is super helpful and has gone out of his way to accommodate for any allergies or other requirements. Both the indoor and outdoor environments are filled with stimulating resources to keep children occupied. Thank you for taking care of our little ones, we have made many beautiful memories here!

Family run Nursery with the loveliest of staff. My two youngest children have attended here. The Owner and his wife are truly wonderful people along with the Manager and all the staff. Great welcoming atmosphere, staff are enthusiastic and genuinely care about the children. It’s like an extension of home. Good facilities, effective communication and I know my children are safe and cared for in their capable hands. Trust is very important for parents when looking for childcare provisions and I feel the fact that this is family run makes a real difference. Keep doing what you’re doing. The preschool graduation ceremony was beautifully done. You’ve created some very happy memories for my children! Xx♥️

Coming out of Covid with minimal exposure to the outside world my twin daughters needed something that felt like home. And Butterfly Nursery game them just that. A warm, friendly and homely environment for my daughters. We chose them over another nursery nearby as we found Butterfly much cleaner, better organised with well maintained facilities. They have a diverse, caring and understanding staff who can cater to varying needs of children in their early years and knowledge of multiple languages was a bonus. A good range of stimulating toys and activities with healthy meal options. They gave my twins a great start in preparation for nursery. Would certainly recommend. Thank you for being so awesome.
