Whilst my child does enjoy coming here (Epsom branch) there is one girl in particular that seems to have no manners whatsoever. I have been unable to catch her name as she seems to avoid me but she has her dark hair in bun usually and two nose piercings and her attitude stinks inside the nursery and out in public when I've seen her.

My little brother goes here and he loves it. It's an amazing nursery with lovely dinners and lovely staff. They do lots of fun activities and even have a garden. They do lots of art and craft and have a class bear and even have a party on Halloween. This was Lyra Hamilton reporting shapes Day Nursery.

My son goes here. Sure it’s expensive (frankly the cost of childcare these days is utterly criminal), the staff are truly brilliant. Caring, personable, genuinely knowledgable and very responsible. It’s clean, the food is good, breakfasts are clearly popular with the kids and you can drop off from 07:30 which helps parents who need to commute. Car parking is a right pain but that’s not the nurseries fault. Overall I’m mega impressed and if I have another, he/she will be going to shapes. I just wish it was cheaper ha! Bravo Sue and Faye.
