“As a healthcare professional who visits the nursery regularly, I just want to mention how pleased I have been on my visits. Lovely staff with a genuine enjoyment of working with young children. Staff are well trained on how to support children. I have seen good examples of staff implementing strategies to help support development. The nursery has a good learning environment and the staff always have creative activities set up. It is amazing to see the care, kindness and compassion they demonstrate every single day. Friendly atmosphere that is welcoming, approachable and a pleasant place to visit.”

“My son attended Bright Futures for almost 3 and a half years up until starting school. He absolutely loved the nursery and I cannot fault them. He received not only amazing care but his confidence and skills flourished. Hayley, Angela and Lauren really care about the children and this is reflected through the whole nursery. He left confident and ready for primary school and they’ve certainly helped with that!”

“What can I say about The Dawg House, such a fantastic place for our Cockapoo Henry. He gets so excited when you just say ‘ the dawg house’ & can hardly sit down when we are going. The staff are so professional & you can tell how much they love the dogs. To us it’s better than we could wish for. Well worth the money & the things they do are just so fantastic, from photos to videos to cards at holiday times (Christmas, Easter etc). A BIG Thank you to Sophie & the brilliant staff for looking after our Henry x”

“My little boy attends Playdays and we are very happy with the care that he receives. This is a fantastic nursery with excellent facilities. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly.

“Very friendly staff and good place for kids.”

“it is the best school that I have ever been to in England .THE BEST!!!!!!!”

“Great facilities, wonderful and caring staff.”

“We absolutely love Grosvenor Nursery! As parents from Hong Kong raising our son here in the UK, it means a lot to find a place where he is not only safe, but truly cared for. The teachers here are warm, patient, and genuinely care about each child’s well-being. One lovely surprise was when they gave my son a bilingual book in Cantonese and English — such a thoughtful gift that really touched our hearts. It shows how inclusive and considerate the staff are, making sure every child feels seen and supported. If you’re looking for a nursery where your child will be cared for like family, this is the place. Highly recommended to all parents!”

“As a parent of a child who attended this nursery for two years. I cannot praise and thank the staff enough. My childs progress has been phenomenal. He even knows some sign language and is barely 3 years old. We only had to move him due to work commitments, however the staff did try to make some accommodations for us to allow him to remain, unfortunately this wasn't possible for us. Every review should be 5*, however it wouldn't do the work you do justice. Keep it up Broad Oaks.”

“As the longest serving member of this fabulous team, I'd just like to say Bowness is still the best place to be!”

“My daughter went her for a short time fab place friendly staff”

“Joanna us a fantastic childminder! My son has additional needs and Joanna caters for him extremely well. I would highly recommend Joanna to anyone wanting childcare.”

“My daughter has been lucky enough to be at Kool Kids since joining her school. As a parent finding an breakfast and afternoon childcare option is a big deal and we checked various options. From first meeting Yvonne and Ste I knew that this is where I wanted my daughter to go. The staff are not just staff members but they are amazing mentors to my daughter and helping her develope through school. Special shouts to Tess, Tegan,Sarah and Tammy for their amazing work.”

“It's a great place that's always been helpful and handy to have nearby. After a small period of closure, it is soon to reopen again...”

“Very friendly people, excellent place to take your dog if you are planning to go away for a few days on your own, 5 star service.”

“Danny has done a great job of maintaining the lawn, drive and patio, keeping on top of weeds and has lots of handy tips and advice on horticulture. Does a thorough job and is reliable. Thank you!”

“Our little one has been at the swinton setting for 3 and a half years and I couldn’t fault anything! The staff who work here are just amazing and really work with the child and the child’s capabilities which was a big stand out for us! I couldn’t have wished for better! The management team are great, Clare, Lynn & JoJo! Kate, Hannah, Flavia & Danielle in particular are outstanding members of staff and has been wonderful to have them as almost extended family for so long! Will miss these guys and this setting A LOT! HIGHLY RECOMMEND”

“Had two move two of my children from another school in Kearsley as it was doing nothing but holding them back. My children have now been at Spindle point for just over a year and I have nothing but sheer admiration of the staff here. They have done nothing but help my children and this has shown in there work as they have come on in leaps and bounds. I have one child with disabilities who was discrimated against due to this at his previous school, but Spindle Point have been so understanding of his needs and have done nothing but encourage and help him in every way shape and form.”

“Very happy we chose this nursery. The staff are knowledgeable and seem to really care about the children. It's much easier to leave him there knowing that he's well looked after. Inside is nice and clean.”

“My little was very shy and not very confident before starting at tiny tots. It only took a week or 2 and she had come out of her shell so much and over a year later still continues to thrive at this nursery! Thanks to every one at tiny tots!”

“Really Good Nursery In A Beautiful Area Would Recommend To Anybody.”

“My Son is due to start reception in September. He has already done a year in preprep here and I can not recommend the school enough! The school has done wonders for Ronnie already. The children take part in a huge variety of activities. One of his favourites is the weekly forest school .”
