About this day nursery

My Playroom Nursery, located in Leicester (LE4 5LQ), was registered in January 2025 and operates as a full day care “Childcare on non-domestic premises” setting. It provides funded early years education for children aged between nine months and four years old.

The nursery benefits from a dedicated team of four early years qualified staff members. Open year-round from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday, My Playroom Nursery focuses on children making good progress through an ambitious and well-sequenced curriculum.

This nursery has been the best choice for us. My son absolutely loves it. I can't believe how fast the last 7 months have gone, from when he first joined barely able to walk, and now seeing him grow into a super sturdy and confident little boy! Big shoutouts to the team there. From the first phone call, Shazia has been amazing. Always has time to listen to you. Jasmine as well hats off to her brilliant from day one. The set up Aliyah and Alisha do for the themed activities is soo good I feel like spending the day there myself! Will always be recommending it can't beat this nursery!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at this nursery. From the very beginning, it’s been clear how much care and attention goes into making everything feel truly personalised for each child. Those extra touches don’t go unnoticed—they make such a difference and really show how committed the team is to going above and beyond to be the very best. The staff are absolutely lovely—warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children’s happiness and development. It’s such a reassuring feeling knowing your little one is in such caring hands. The setting itself is very modern, and thoughtfully designed, creating a welcoming and stimulating environment. Choosing this nursery has been one of the best decisions for our little one, and we’re so grateful for the positive impact it’s had on them.

Both of my twins aged 4 have been coming since September to the My Playroom Nursery and we have had absolutely no problems, Shaz and the staff are so lovely and always willing to help as much as they can. They also helped the twins settle in so well. The twins both always look forward to going and doing the activities as they are always different. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone looking for one for their child, such a lovely place.

We absolutely love this nursery! My eldest first went to Shazia when she was a childminder and I trusted her so much. When my second came along, we didn’t even think twice about sending him to her as well. So when she told us she was opening a nursery, we were honestly so excited—we had already reserved a place for our youngest before he was even born! That just shows how much trust we have in her. The setting itself is beautiful—always clean, bright and really welcoming. It has a very modern feel with lots of fun, creative touches. There are themed areas like the playdough room, and even little details like the Spider-Man Lego display and Barbie displays in the hallway, which the kids love. You can tell a lot of thought has gone into it and everything is really well planned out to keep the children engaged and learning through play. The outdoor play area is also really good, with plenty for the children to enjoy and explore. There’s such a good mix of play and learning, and we’ve seen such a positive difference in our children, especially in their confidence and development. They often copy things they’ve learned at nursery when they’re playing at home, which shows how much they’re taking in and enjoying it. We always look forward to all the events she puts on throughout the year—they’re so thoughtful and really make things special for the children. Our kids absolutely adore her. Even my six-year-old, who’s now in school, still says he wants to go back to Shazia! We also get regular updates and beautiful pictures on the app, which we really enjoy—it gives us real peace of mind seeing how happy they are and what they’re getting up to during the day. All the staff are so friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they genuinely care about the children. Especially Jasmin- she always greets us with such a big smile and we genuinely look forward to seeing her just as much as the kids do. They’ve also been really supportive in helping where extra support is needed, which we really appreciate. Couldn’t recommend them enough! ❤️

The best nursery for my little one hands down! My mind couldn't be more at ease whilst he's there. The staff are so lovely and caring and the nursery environment is so beautiful. Adam has the best time and takes part in many mind enriching activities whilst he's there. Shaz has truly done an amazing job with the place. Couldn't recommend more!
