My two sons both attended Denbigh and really enjoyed their time there. It is a great start to nursery, and all the staff are very nurturing and caring. They have a great outside space which is used all summer. My younger son broke his leg quite badly (not at the nursery) and Liliana and the team took such great care of him and included him in all the activities even though he was in a huge body cast - i am sure many nurseries would not have allowed him to come in at all. I could not recommend Denbigh more.....
