I will highly recommend this day nursery any day, any time. My three children have been through the nursery. The standards and quality of care and education are second to non. The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable and always happy to help. The managers are so approachable and always available. The children are always happy and there are always staff in sufficient numbers to keep the babies busy and entertained. Thanks Teddy’s Garden for giving my children a good start in their early years education. Nya
