Babies like playing in the garden. They enjoy the fresh soothing air, the push-along toys and the bicycles. They delight in pushing them forwards and backward, along with trying to climb on and get off them. This supports their core strength, large-muscle and physical skills.
What a lovely nursery. My daughter has just graduated preschool and has had a beautiful send off. The staff have always been supportive, friendly and polite. I have always felt that my child is being left in good hands. I will be sending my other child here in September. I would definitely recommend x
Read on GoogleA truly wonderful nursery! Setting is like no other; brand new, spotlessly clean rooms with a perfect garden for the children. The staff and management team are experts in their field and bring out the very best in the children. Their communication, flexibility and bonds with the children are so special. Our son loves coming to nursery and he is making such progress because the team are so dedicated, loving and warm. An absolutely fantastic nursery- recommend to all.

Read on GoogleGreat nursery! Our son joined during covid and despite no parent child settling in sessions he has loved it since day one. All of the staff are welcoming and friendly and clearly have a passion for children. It is great to see how much our son has developed since joining a year ago.
Read on GoogleHighly recommended nursery. The staff are fantastic, friendly and child focussed. They have helped my little girl settle very quickly from a previous bad nursery experience. Both I and she couldn’t be happier!
