My Daughter attended Charley's Angels from 7 months old all the way to 4 and a half years old. It is a fantastic establishment with staff who really care about your child. The staff build unforgettable bonds with the children which encourages and helps learning and development. I am so grateful for everything they have done as they have ensured my daughter is completely ready for primary school. I will miss each and every member of staff and wish them all the best for the future.

My daughter has been attending Charley’s Angels Day Nursery since she was 9 months old — she’s now 3 — and I can honestly say it’s been the most wonderful place for her to grow, learn, and thrive. The staff are absolutely fantastic: supportive, kind, and genuinely caring. They take a child-led approach to play and learning while following the EYFS guidance to ensure each child is developing at their own pace. It's clear how much they care — it really shows in everything they do. My child truly loves each and every one of them and is excited to see them all each day. We receive regular updates and plenty of photos, which is so reassuring and lovely to see. The food is another big highlight — it’s home-cooked on site by their brilliant chef and always nutritious and balanced. Charley, the manager, and Becky the deputy manager are truly hands-on and involved with the children, which adds to the warm and personal feel of the nursery. My daughter absolutely loves attending, and I know we’re both going to be so sad when the time comes for her to move on to school. I would recommend Charley’s Angels Day Nursery to any parent — it’s been an amazing experience for our family.

All staff are very friendly and helpful. My son has been with Charley's Angels for over 3 years and is very happy there! He loves the food cooked by chef Richard. Charley and the team supported my son with potty training and helped him to deal with some major changes within our family life. We are very grateful and couldn't recommend this nursery enough❤️

We have had a lovely experience with this nursery. They treat my little boy with such care, love and kindness it's so nice to see him happy in the mornings when we drop him off. The staff are all really lovely and are always happy to help and give advice. The pictures they send us weekly reassure us that he is having fun and learning lots of new skills. He has developed loads during his short time at Charley's Angels and I couldn't ask for anything more!
