Fantastic nursery. My child was there for around 4 years. We visited several nurseries in the area and this was the only one which ticked the boxes for us; friendly experienced staff, nice well laid out rooms and easy parking for drop offs/ pick ups. We loved our time at Peter Pan’s and truly miss it. We enjoyed the great events throughout the year involving parents such as sports day, mother/father days, graduations etc. Staff took great care of children with additional needs. Would happily pick this nursery all over again. Thanks Peter Pans ❤️
