An amazing local nursery that truly cares about the education, care, welfare and development of the children who go there. My children have flourished in Nesham Nursery thanks to the amazing, loving, long term staff over the course of 9 years. I could not think of sending my children anywhere else and will be heartbroken when they have to leave because they’re all grown up. The activities both in the nursery and externally are enriching both for the children and the community. They get to explore, create and learn all within a loving safe environment. I have recommended many of my friends and family to Nesham and wouldn’t hesitate to continue to do this if you are looking for personalised loving care for your little ones. Thank you to all the amazing people at Nesham.

This nursery is like a wolf in sheep' clothing. Be careful when they ask for consent to refer your child/children to s peach and language for example, they do this to gain access into your private life. They work closely with children's services and will go against you.
