Cheeky Chums Nursery has been amazing for our twin boys over the past two years. Both have special educational needs, and the staff have shown incredible patience, understanding, and care every single day. They created a safe, inclusive, and happy environment where our boys could grow in confidence and develop at their own pace. We’re so grateful for the support, communication, and genuine love they’ve shown — we couldn’t have asked for a better start to their journey. Many thanks to the team!

Terrible nursery I wish I never sent my daughter here, staff were terrible and unprofessional self diagnosing her as being on the spectrum when she isn’t! Every time we picked her up from nursery we were told she ate some of her lunch and only after we left the nursery it came to light she never used to eat her lunch apart from 1 bite and as a result struggles with eating certain things now. Do not send your children here!

As a parent of a 2 year old, I can't say enough positive things about Cheeky Chums Nursery. From the moment we enrolled our child, we felt welcomed and valued. The staff is exceptionally caring, nurturing, and professional, creating a warm environment where children can thrive. The curriculum is well-structured and age-appropriate, focusing on both educational and social development. Our child has shown remarkable growth in their skills and confidence since starting. The activities are engaging and foster creativity, from arts and crafts to outdoor play. Communication with parents is top-notch; we receive regular updates on our child's progress and daily activities. The facility itself is clean, safe, and thoughtfully designed to encourage exploration and learning. Overall, we highly recommend Cheeky Chums to any parent looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child. It has truly been a wonderful experience for our family!

Cheeky Chums Team is like our extended family. As a mother I feel truly blessed, that my 3 year old has been in their care for over 2.5 years. A big thank you to all the lovely key workers who work tirelessly in a very cheerful way, to provide fantastic care and great teachings, transforming our little ones into little people. My little one loves going to the nursery and comes back home with a bundle of new learnings, cheer and joy. That is what makes it all count! As they say time goes quickly, but with Cheeky Chums in this journey, it has made it truly magical. Thank you, Cheeky Chums Team, you have been absolutely brilliant. Big cheer and our humble gratitude for the team Cheeky Chums. Xxx
