This nursery is amazing, we feel so lucky to send our daughter here! The staff work hard to create fabulous play opportunities and care so much for the children in the welcoming and warm nursery environment. Katie and Michelle (the owners) are clearly passionate about high quality childcare and go above and beyond to support families. As a parent I feel well informed about my child’s progress and completely at ease trusting them to care for my child! Greenview nursery really is 5* !
