This is a beautiful nursery. The manager Nikita is very caring and passionate about seeing the children thrive, and thus this carries through across all of the staff who absolutely love the children and are so involved in listening to the kid’s interests and passions and this makes for such a positive and happy environment. You can see immediately how happy and celebrated the children are. The children are very relaxed and happy, spending lots of time learning and playing outside and exploring a really wide range of activities. I’m so happy we found Paper Moon Compton Acres and I am extremely grateful to Nikita and all of the wonderful staff 🌟

Our son attends Papermoon Nursery and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the care he receives. Michaela and Nikita have been absolutely wonderful with him — so attentive, kind, and genuinely caring. It’s such a comfort knowing he’s in a safe, nurturing environment where he’s not only looked after but also encouraged to learn and grow. We’ve seen such positive changes in him since starting, and it’s clear how much love and effort goes into everything they do. Huge thanks to the team, especially Michaela and Nikita, for making his nursery experience so special
