Millies Nursery is highly recommended. I used the nursery through out summer holidays as back up care. My children enjoyed their time there and the staff were really lovely and informative about children's day. The manager Natasha is warm and welcoming and I will be using millies nursery in the future.

My son attended Millie’s for two years and since the very beginning I knew Millie’s was the perfect place. Natasha is easily reachable and personable, always putting us at ease. The staff are incredibly caring and diligent and very supportive of when I started potty training my son. The quarterly meet ups are well organised and incredibly valuable for parents. My son has grown into a confident little man in partnership with Millie’s care and I couldn’t recommend them enough. Thank you team.
