My daughter has been going here since the age of two and transitioned there so easily from being with a childminder. she has amazing bonds with staff who are always on top form when it come to the children’s needs and daily running of the nursery … both me and my daughter love this nursery and I love the fact that it’s not too big and my daughter can’t get lost in the crowd…. Staff are down to earth and can also have a laugh and a joke.
