We recently applied for our child to come to this nursery and our child had her settling sessions. In the lead up to these sessions we found the service and support for us as parents appalling we received no menus or information on what they would like her to arrive with. As time went on we were left silent with a start date. When we rung and tried to sort the situation out about our child going to the nursery we had been given poor customer service once again. Would not recommend plenty of politer nursery's in this area.
