Jigsaw truly was the missing piece for our family. Returning to work and leaving your child in someone else’s care is never easy, but from the moment we found Jigsaw I felt completely reassured. The staff are incredible - so warm, caring and welcoming at both drop-off and pick-up. My little boy now bounces in every morning with a huge smile and is just as happy when I collect him, which says everything about how safe and loved he feels there. The team always take the time to update me on his progress and it’s clear how much genuine care they have for each child. Knowing he is so happy and well looked after makes such a difference when I’m at work. Thank you to the whole team at Jigsaw for caring for my little boy so beautifully and for truly becoming an extension of our family

A great little nursery. I think the kids here benefit greatly from how small and friendly the setting is, as the staff really know them well. The staff are experienced, always available to chat to parents and there is not a high staff turnover. Our little one has always been very happy here and now at 3 years old she comes home with lots of lovely stories about all the fun she has with her friends and teachers! So pleased that Jigsaw has helped give her such a strong start in her early learning.

BEST NURSERY/PRE SCHOOL IN SOUTH LIVERPOOL!!!! Jigsaw is a hidden gem not to be overlooked in favour of bolder settings in the area. The care is second to none, a real home from home environment with a huge focus on learning. Having experienced other set ups this is like nothing else Pauline and all of the staff are amazing, nothing is too much trouble. All of the children are so happy and settled. More importantly they are all looked after like they are family not just a number. Communication is excellent, food is home cooked and nutritious and the staff are all long serving and committed. Small groups and lots of activities make this a real winner for us. Cannot recommend Jigsaw highly enough!
