Redhill Day Nursery is surely the BEST nursery in Bournemouth. It has exceeded our expectations in many ways and the team truly care about every child. We are delighted to see our son receive such a personal level of care and attention from each of the staff. The love, kindness and gentleness shown by every staff member is second to none. Our son runs in with glee virtually every morning and waves and smiles to the staff and children when leaving in evenings and that is testament to how he has grown in confidence since being there. His speech, fine motor skills and sharing has really developed in his 6 months to date and lots of this is thanks to Becky and her fantastic team. We love the daily photo email diaries and enjoy sharing his progress with family. The level of communication by Becky and her team is also exemplary. There is no messing around if we need to switch the odd day or go on holiday and we established a strong level of trust after just a few weeks of our son being enrolled. We are busy parents working 5 and 4 days a week and the team really support us here. We highly recommend Redhill Day Nursery to any parent in the local area and we are excited about our son’s development over the next 6 months as he enters his pre-school year! We would give it 6 stars if we could.

My son has just finished 2 years at Redhill Nursery and it’s been fantastic! My son runs into nursery every morning with a massive smile, then can’t stop talking about his friends and teachers the whole way home. I want to thank every member of staff for the development he has made over the last couple years. His speech and social skills will give him the best start in life.

Love this nursery! They do a great job educating and bringing great experiences to both my children's lives! They work with me and support me with raising my children. They are a good reasonable price and always have the children first. I would strongly recommend anyone having their children hear.

Lovely nursery, with nice light and airy rooms. They have an excellent garden for outdoor learning, and so far our daughter loves it.
