They are now almost 4 and almost 2. They thoroughly enjoy going to Seasons and have thrived there. There is a lovely balance of free play as well as learning. The staff are fantastic, very supportive, always listen and seem to really know and understand our children well. Bridget, the manager, is always happy to try and accommodate our needs wherever possible. We would definitely recommend this nursery to others because our children are so happy there. Thank you to all of the staff for their ongoing care and support towards our children.

They offer fantastic facilities and the staff have a great work ethic and understanding of the children they care for. They encourage the children to play outside whenever possible and create a very safe environment that allows the children to learn by doing different activities. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery!

I visited a lot of Nurseries and Childminders before I found Seasons. I was immediately impressed. The Manager and Staff are very caring, professional and knowledgeable. They will happily take time to answer any questions you may have. They take time supporting children to settle into their nursery and also during transition into each new room. I like their 'Respect is everywhere' policy. They treat the children with incredible care, respect and encourage independence as soon as possible. They allow children to choose their own keyworker. They provide an excellent range of activities and the facilities are lovely. They speak positively about children and provide daily updates on their time at Seasons. We are very impressed with the Nursery and would highly recommend it to other parents.

My little boy settled in so easily here with the fantastic settling sessions. All the staff are friendly, and always have time for you to talk about any concerns, or just to let you know what your little one ate that day! Lots of outdoor and messy play, come rain or shine, and the food is always of a very high standard! Excellent structure to the day in preparation for school, and a very calm atmosphere to the nursery, with their "everyone's welcome" play philosophy that my little boy always reminds me :-) My little boy couldn't be happier, he asks every morning when is it time for nursery, and is learning so much there. He waves and smiles as I leave, and is always wanting to share his daily experiences with me at pick up time!

My son started to attend the nursery when he was 9 months old, now he is 28 months old and LOVE IT!!!! Staff at nursery are more than helpfull, always happy to help and smiling:) Days at the nursery are full of fun development activities: streach and grow, dancing, singing, birthday circles (when children have the opportunity to help to bake a cake:) french lessons and many many more. My son talks about his friends from nursery during the weekends and can not wait Monday to see them again.
