At home one of us can't even go to the shop without a meltdown!\n\nIf you have a special needs child i would 110% recommend this little sanctuary, it's everything you've been looking for and more ❤️",

There are no words to even come close to explaining how much these girls & this nursery mean to me and my 2 girls !! I’ve had 2 children attend here who have since left the last one being this term 2024 and I can honestly say they wouldn’t be anywhere near where they are today without Essential’s from non verbal to now singing nursery rhymes by themselves and the eldest now thriving in her primary school I have nothing but praise and appreciation for each and everyone of these girls and I’ll always be thankful for there part played in my girls future because without the constant support off Essentials Early Years i honestly would not of coped myself these last 4 years !! You’s really are amazing 👏🏽👏🏽

By far the best nursery around! Can't fault them in anyway at all! Brilliant staff, everyone genuinely cares about the children in their care. When my daughter started 10 months ago she was non verbal and stuff to me and her dad, this is the only place where she is happy to leave us, she has come on leaps and bounds and even started saying a few words. Everytime we park up outside the nursery she has a smile on her face and runs in so happy. At home one of us can't even go to the shop without a meltdown! If you have a special needs child i would 110% recommend this little sanctuary, it's everything you've been looking for and more ❤️

My child has started going to Essential at the beginning of September and he already is coming out of his shell, the staff is absolutely amazing, they care so much and my baby loves them all, I couldn’t ask for a better place where to send my little ones. Thank you so much for all of your hard work

Started my kids at this nursery and I only have positive things to say about everyone working at essentials. They are kind and caring. They always have a planned day of activities , we feel very comfortable leaving our children here and wish we could have had our children here sooner.
