About this early years setting

Millie's House Nursery and Pre-School is a well-established childcare provider offering high-quality care and education to children from their earliest days. With multiple locations, the nursery focuses on creating a home-from-home environment where children feel secure, happy, and comfortable.

Their approach is rooted in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, encouraging independence, resilience, and social skills through a balanced curriculum of child-led play and adult-guided experiences. The nurseries are thoughtfully designed, and children are supported by experienced early years educators who understand effective learning through play and discovery.

Millie's House actively promotes outdoor learning as a core part of its curriculum and provides nutritious, home-cooked meals daily. The nursery also emphasises strong parent partnerships, fostering a supportive community.

Since its establishment in 2012, Millie's House has been dedicated to providing children with an excellent start in life, helping them develop into confident and curious learners ready for their next educational steps.

Both of our children have attended Millie's House Nursery and Pre-School and we could not be more pleased with the level of care and education they have received while there. All staff go over and beyond to meet all of the children's needs, with positive relationships at the very core of all child-staff and child-child interactions. As a teacher myself, I am astounded at the level of support and patience shown to both of my children daily. They are consistently greeted with warm welcomes and no task is ever too big of an ask for any of the educators or management. The play-based learning opportunities they provide for the children are exceptional and their parent community-building events have been a fabulous way to bring the nursery parents and community together. As we transition our eldest into reception this autumn, we are thoroughly confident that she will flourish due to the nurturing support provided to her by Millie's House. She leaves the nursery nothing short of confident, kind and capable. Thank you, Millie's House, for looking after our next generation so beautifully and for such a wonderful early education experience for our children. We are forever grateful for the amazing work you do. Would absolutely recommend this centre to anyone wanting a small, caring learning environment for their young ones.

Our son absolutely loved going to Millie's House. The staff were super attentive, and every single day our boy would tell us he had such a good time and tell us the things he did that he enjoyed that day. Would not consider having a third child, but if you're in the age range, this is an exceptional nursery.

This is a lovely nursery in which we felt our daughter flourished from very early on. She was very attached when she started nursery for the first time at Millie’s House but the way Millie’s House handled the settling in, meant it was very easy for her to settle in well and start enjoying her 5 full days at nursery from the very first few weeks without any tears during drop-off. The teachers are all so warm, caring and welcoming and our daughter enjoys giving her teachers a big cuddle first thing when she arrives in the morning. Also, the food (cooked fresh at the nursery every day) is very lovingly made and balanced. All around I feel assured when I drop my daughter off that she is in very good hands.

My daughter started at this nursery 3 months ago and she absolutely loves it! She has created bonds with her key worker/ staff who are all so nurturing and put so much energy into caring for her and supporting her development. I am so appreciative of them and how thorough they are!

I cannot recommend Millie’s House Parson Green highly enough! I was nervous about leaving my Child in someone else's care, but the staff at Millie’s House made me feel completely at ease. They are warm, welcoming, and truly dedicated to the children in their care. My child has attended Millie’s House Parson Green for several months now, and I have seen so much growth and development in that time. The activities and learning opportunities provided by the nursery are engaging and age-appropriate, and I love how they incorporate outdoor play and exploration into their daily routine. The facilities at Millie’s House are also top-notch. The classrooms are bright and spacious, with plenty of toys and equipment for the children to explore. The outdoor play area is large and well-maintained, with lots of opportunities for imaginative play. But what really sets Millie’s House nursery apart, in my opinion, is the staff. They are knowledgeable, caring, and always available to answer questions or provide updates on my child's progress. I feel like they truly care about my child's well-being and development, and that has made all the difference. If you're looking for a nursery that will provide a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for your child, I highly recommend Millie’s House. I am so grateful to have found them!
