Read on GoogleI couldn’t be happier with the nursery Bella attended. From the very beginning, the staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. It was clear every day that Bella was in a safe, nurturing environment where she was encouraged to learn, play, and grow with confidence. The team always took the time to communicate with me, sharing updates about Bella’s day and celebrating her progress, which meant a lot as parents. The atmosphere was friendly, positive, and well-structured, and Bella absolutely loved going in each morning. I am so grateful for the care, patience, and kindness shown to Bella, and i would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a supportive and loving place for their child.
Read on GoogleMy one year absolutely loves this nursery. She always goes in smiling & comes out happy. The staff are great & very caring. The Family App is great as it gets updated throughout the day so you can see what your little one has eaten etc & also the staff upload pictures & videos which is always lovely to see. Would recommend this nursery 100%.
Read on GoogleI have had my son at another nursery but once I saw this met with the director and staffing I knew it was the perfect place for my family. My son has been here from 9months old and his confidence in speaking, and showing amazing skills in his understanding shows me that the staff talk to him and explain things. They use a app called family and my daily updates are beautiful to see how much he’s ate, what he’s been doing and also to message through to the girls to ensure my son is okay through his day is a privilege and puts my mind at ease. I’m so happy and thankful for all the teams hard work and it’s lovely to see it’s such a happy environment where all members of staff know my son even if they are not in his age range they still show a great interest in him and his interests. Thank you everyone at foresters xxx
