My son is happy to go there everyday. First day he came home and he called the teacher auntie (in my own language so sure they didn’t tell him to say that) which he never never never did before to someone - stranger. He improved there his speech so much. I love the trays they prepare there for the children everyday (you can easily check it on their instagram account). They provide you with their journal app as well where they are adding photos and notes about your child behaviour and skills. They always inform me what he was doing there that day when I am coming to pick him up. Even though they share the school calendar with me, they send messages reminding me about school holidays or days off so I am really grateful for. The staff is the best i could have dreamed of and the room itself is really clean and well organized. It was the best choice I could have made transferring him there from his previous nursery. The teachers take great care of the children. From September I will also enroll my one-year-old daughter there. Absolutely recommend everybody!
