Our Son has been attending Daisy Fay’s since he was 9 months old & all the staff have gone above and beyond to make sure Hudson is well looked after. It can be very Daunting leaving your child and returning to work but all the staff especially Jacqui & Ashlyn have been superb. Lindsay has always been so helpful when we have needed to add Hudson in for extra days or Hours last min. I would personally Highly Recommend Daisy Fays & wouldn’t want him to attended any other Nursery. Hudson has thrived & absolutely loves Nursety and it’s all thanks to the staff.

Daisy Fays Tresillian has been wonderful. Our little lad (9 months old when he started, now just over a year old) has really blossomed there. He's always smiling when we pick him up, and you can tell they really care. Jackie especially has been great

Maci loves coming to Nursery. The girls are so good with her and she's always telling me all the fun things she's got up too. It's so nice to feel comfortable leaving your child in a setting and no she's loving it and being looked after the same as I would!

Our daughter has been going to Daisy Fays for around a year and a half now and she absolutely loves it. The staff are fantastic and we have loved watching our daughter's bond grow with her key worker and the other staff members. We get regular updates on the app and at pick up on what she is up to and it’s lovely to hear about her day. Her confidence and skills have developed so much at Daisy Fays and she has made a great little group of friends there. The facilities are great, with lots of areas to explore. There is a big outdoor space which they are out in every day! The activities are varied and suited to age and the weeks are themed with different topics, which we like to get involved with and continue at home. I love that the food is cooked in house and my child gets a warm meal at lunchtime. The high level of care is just fantastic and as parents have no close family nearby, we are so grateful to Daisy Fay’s for everything they do! Thank you!

My daughter has been here from a baby and they’ve always gone above and beyond, couldn’t have wished for a better nursery or staff! Jacqui & Ashlyn always made sure she was looked after from the young age she started! Thank you so much, definitely recommend Daisy fays.
