My son loves attending this nursery, he always tells me he has so much fun. The setting is small so each child receives bundles of care and attention. The nursery is located in the centre of the park and the children make use of the park and explore nature which is a major plus that he gets to run around in the fresh air. The staff are very friendly and provide regular feedback on my sons progress, and it's lovely to see him developing under their care. I can't rate them highly enough.
