Absolutely love this nursery, changed nurseries as wasn't happy with previous one and It was the best thing I ever did. What a difference. All the staff here are so hands on, caring and kind, and so informative. The app is a great idea, my daughter loves it here and is always so happy going in and after being picked up, they keep the children active all day :-)

One word *OUTSTANDING* myself and my daughter absolutely love premier lodge, they have the best most friendliest staff, they are so kind and loving towards your child, they do so much fun activities for the children, they are very professional, very supportive, and also you have the app that keeps you updated through the day what your child has eaten etc. I’m going to be so sad for my daughter when she leaves nursery next year as she will start reception in a school but I totally recommend this nursery it’s just amazing and I feel so safe leaving my child under there care. :) x
