We couldn’t be happier with Naturally Curious Day Nursery. It’s such a safe, nurturing, and happy environment for our baby boy. The team have taken the time to really understand his routine, which has helped him settle in so well and feel completely at ease. Charlie has enjoyed so many new experiences and is learning every day in such a thoughtful and engaging environment—it’s been wonderful to watch his development and confidence grow. As a new mum, the support has meant so much—especially with breastfeeding. The team are incredibly understanding and have been so comforting and reassuring on the days he needs that extra bit of care. A special thank you to Francesca and the whole team. They are caring, attentive, and truly dedicated. We feel incredibly lucky to have found a nursery we trust so completely with our little boy.

My daughter recently started at Naturally Curious and we are absolutely delighted with our experience with them so far. The nursery is extremely well kept, beautifully decorated, and has a wide range of Montessori-style toys, sensory opportunities and hands-on activities for the children. I also love that outdoor time is widely encouraged, with lots of garden time and almost-daily trips to the park. My little girl loves being outside and the fresh air really is so good for them! One thing in particular that we are extremely grateful to the nursery for (and which has secured our decision that this is absolutely the right place to send our daughter), is that they have been extremely acknowledging, supportive, and encouraging of important developmental progress we've made with our daughter prior to starting nursery. The first being potty training, the second being sign language communication. My daughter was 15 months when she started and had been making great potty training progress which we really wanted to keep going when she started nursery too. The staff have all been very accommodating of this, and gladly put her in potty training pants throughout the day with regular toilet stops. We've been doing sign language with our daughter since she was born and at the time of starting nursery she was communicating very clearly with us using 50+ BSL signs. We were delighted to discover that the manager already knew sign language due to doing it with her own children, and the other wonderful staff all eagerly learnt the important signs that allowed them to communicate with her with ease before she even officially started attending, which we were extremely impressed by! The staff are all brilliant, very friendly and very informative. It feels like leaving your child in a home-from-home with the company of friends, which is a lovely, reassuring feeling. We highly recommend Naturally Curious Day Nursery and are so glad with our decision to enroll our daughter here.
