Best nursery in the area - by far

Absolutely fantastic. My daughter has been attending this nursery for over a year now and it is by far the best nursery we have experienced. Here a child is an individual, the staff "know" the children and genuinely care, the children settle well due to the atmosphere and fantastic staff. The staff are incredibly good with children, they know what they need; e.g. if your child is tired they will involve them in a calmer activity - reading books for example. Opening hours are 7am-7pm and the nursery takes children afterschool/school holidays until the age of 8. This feels more like a community than a nursery and the children progress exceptionally well in all areas - reading, physical, maths, language, drawing, writing etc. The nursery does different "themes" so 'Chinese New Year' one week, healthy eating the next. My daughter loves learning about autumn and the change of seasons. The children of all ages get a chance to mix e.g. outside for meals, general play although they are apart for specific activities. My daughter really likes this as she finds the babies are "funny" :) I am guessing if you have siblings this is far nicer than having them separated into different rooms. The nursery is very outdoorsy, with all usual activities taking place outside if the weather permits. Children just love being outside, I feel they get on better when allowed to spend a lot of time outside. I have experienced three nurseries in the area and this one just blows away the competition - it is far, far better than the others.
