Pathfield is an exceptional nursery. Every staff member is friendly and approachable and they know what your child has been doing that day. They are all well informed about any special achievements or concerns, so if your key person is not available you know that the information you are given is the correct information. Amika has been so happy since she started in August and her key person Martyna has been fantastic. All the staff is fantastic of course and I can recommend this nursery to anyone who would like a nice and personable nursery for their child.
