I have been lucky enough to have found this little patch of childhood paradise over 10 years ago! Both my daughter and most recently my son have attended here from a few months old to 4 years! Both have had the very best start possible, in regards to learning new skills, making friends and socialising, creating new skills, and preparing them for the jump into primary school. The facilities available are fantastic and always being upgraded and made bigger and better to benefit the children. The staff are wonderful! they treat the children as they were their own, the care and love they show to each child is second to non, years on my daughter still misses her time here and the staff she was with. My son has so much fun he never wants to leave, and is always excited to go to nursery and see all his friends and staff. I would recommend this nursery 100%. Love you All xx
