Child development activities in Northampton

“Would recommend Harpole Day nursery to anyone. Our little boy has been attending for around 5 months now and absolutley loves it. He's always so excited to see the lovely ladies that work there and you can see how much he's bonded with them in a short space of time. Love the homecooked and varied food and the amount of great activities they do with the children which we wouldn't do with him at home. Such a warm, friendly environment and the staff care so much about the children. The communicatuon is brilliant and we get lots of updates on the app everyday. Our sons development has come on leaps and bounds since he started and we are so glad we chose this nursery.”

“Could not have found a better nursery to take my son to if I tried! The staff here are amazing, they genuinely care. Highly recomend”

“Our little one has settled in so quickly and enjoys every session they go to. The staff are so lovely and caring. And they all go above and beyond to support and advise my little one’s development.”

“Our little boy has attended Puddleducks for the last 2 years and absolutely loves it! He is always so excited to go to nursery in the morning and comes home so happy and chatting away about all the fun things he has been up to! I was very anxious about sending our son to nursery, but the staff were absolutely amazing and made me feel so relaxed - I knew he was in safe hands! And it is lovely to receive photos every week to see what he has been up to throughout the day. Our little girl will be attending Puddleducks next year when I go back to work after maternity leave too - I wouldn’t want to send her anywhere else.”

“My son moved to this nursery a couple of months ago following a negative experience at this previous nursery. The transition to this nursery was made easy management always very helpful. My son also settled very quickly here with no tears at drop off. The staff are always very welcoming and my little one loves it here. Highly recommended :) my newborn will also be attending here when he is older. Thankyou”

“Have worked closely with both Jo and Mark for over a year now and find them both to be a pleasure to work with a fine eye to detail etc. If I lived in that area and required their services wouldn't hesitate to use them and from what i have seen of the nursery and what they do will happily recommend them. Keep up the good work!!!”

“The Best Nursery! Highly Recommended! As a first-time mom, finding the right nursery for my daughter was incredibly important to me. After a long search, I discovered Tudor Manor Nursery, and from the first visit, I knew this was the perfect place. The atmosphere felt welcoming and positive, with children happily engaged and the staff genuinely caring. I felt a great sense of reassurance that my daughter would be in safe hands. Now that she has started attending, I can see a positive transformation in her. She’s excited to go each day, and I notice her growing confidence and joy in learning. The team at Tudor Manor is outstanding – professional, friendly, and incredibly supportive. They always make time to chat with me at pick-up, sharing updates about my daughter’s day, which is so appreciated. Thank you to everyone at Tudor Manor for the wonderful care you provide. We are beyond grateful to have found such a nurturing environment. You truly are the best!”
