I cannot praise this Nursery enough! I'm so glad I moved my little girl to this Nursery! As she was in another. After working in nurseries for years, I've never settled with any 3 of my kids in any of the nurseries, but this nursery feels like I've been there forever! The staff are like friends or family that I'm just dropping my kids off to! The nursery is about the kids and not the money! (As most nurseries are about the money!) The activities they do for the children are amazing, the love care and attention is brilliant nearly every staff knows of my children even when she hasn't even been in their room. The staff atmosphere is brilliant and warming, nothing worse leaving your children with staff that look like they are all at war with eachother or not pleased to be there. But it's not the end ....... As one leaves, one starts. Can't wait for my littlest's journey here! Starting September 🩷

TreeTops Nursery in Bootle, Liverpool has been an absolute blessing for our family. From the moment we enrolled our daughter, we knew we had made the right choice. The staff at TreeTops are not only highly trained professionals, but they also exhibit a genuine love and care for each child. The facilities at TreeTops are exceptional. The nursery is beautifully designed, providing a warm and welcoming environment that stimulates learning and creativity. The classrooms are well-equipped with age-appropriate toys, books, and educational materials, ensuring that the children have access to a wide range of resources. What sets TreeTops apart is their commitment to individualized attention. They take the time to understand each child's unique needs, strengths, and interests, tailoring their approach to maximize each child's development. Our daughter has thrived under their guidance, and we've seen remarkable progress in her social, cognitive, and emotional growth. Communication with the nursery staff is effortless. They maintain open lines of communication, keeping parents informed about their child's activities, milestones, and any concerns that may arise. It's truly comforting to know that our daughter is in such capable hands. Additionally, TreeTops offers a well-rounded curriculum that fosters not only academic development but also encourages physical activity, imaginative play, and social interaction. Our daughter eagerly shares stories of the fun-filled activities, engaging projects, and exciting outings she experiences at TreeTops. We cannot recommend TreeTops Nursery enough. It has been a nurturing and enriching environment for our daughter, and we're grateful for the positive impact it has had on her early years. Thank you, TreeTops, for your dedication and for providing a loving and stimulating place for our child to learn and grow.

My daughter loves it here. Everyday she tells us all about her day & how much fun she has had. I'm always amazed when I read & see all the photo updates of the wonderful learning activities she has done. The staff & owners are just brilliant. So friendly & knowledgeable. I would 100% recommend Treetops Nursery. My child's happiness & her smile at the end of each nursery day says it all really...

I would highly recommend Treetops, from the moment I had my first walk around tour I felt like it would be the perfect place for my daughter and they have not disappointed. Each week my daughter is still slightly upset going in but all the staff welcome her and she goes off to play with them straight away. I love the regular updates, with photos I get that show me what she is doing and how she has been. I would recommend anyone to Treetops who are looking for a local family run nursery!
