The best decision we ever made was transferring our 2 year old daughter to Daisy Fays Truro. After being let down by another nursery within Truro, who were dragging their feet on paperwork and our daughters start date, we decided to look elsewhere. Daisy Fays was highly recommend to us. So we decided to take a look at Daisy Fays Truro and we are so glad we did. The viewing of the nursery was amazing, the staff we met were lovely, kind and very friendly. We were sure from that point on that this was the perfect fit for our daughter. Our daughter is loving it here, she now wakes excited, and ready to go to nursery each morning. The staff here support our daughter in the areas she needs support in, ie delayed speech It is thanks to their outstanding training and knowledge that our daughter has been thriving since starting here and she has come so far in such a short time that it has surprised us immensely. Thank you so much Daisy Fays Truro, you truly are an amazing nursery with an amazing team behind you. You have gone far beyond our expectations of a perfect nursery for our daughter.

This is my second child to attend Daisy Fay’s Chiverton and both children have thrived here. The staff are child centred, the activities are so well thought out and they really know each individual child. The staff have been really supportive of me as a parent and always make me and my family feel welcome. They’ve done wonderful work to bring on my daughter’s speech in a short space of time and they work hard to find tools that work for her. Thank you Daisy Fay’s Chiverton

I wasn’t sure whether nursery was the right decision, but one year on at Daisy Fay’s, my son has blossomed! He adores the staff (as do I!) and he now shuts the door on me as he goes in for the day! I have been absolutely blown away with the care and love he is shown from all the staff across the whole setting, from Rachel the manager, chef, to new apprentices. Big shout out to Denise and Leanne in the baby room, who I am so thankful to for looking after my son with such care and attention. I am sure this will continue when he moves to toddlers! Thank you all and keep doing what you do!

My child started here at the beginning of November and since then I have only had positive experiences with the nursery and every member of staff there. My son is always happy and well look after in there care and the meals are freshly prepared to his requirements. It's also great having updates from the app so you know what they are up to and enjoying their day. 5 Star.
