Children's entertainment in Sheffield

“Work meeting being done in chesterfield. Easy to find place but won't be going here very often now”

“Nice place. Very friendly staff. Always happy to help or give advice.”

“Excellent for smaller children.”

“Meet new friends from your kind of background back home I'm Jamaican”

“This is mainly for Dr Ayinippully. I have been through a lot with finding out what is wrong with me, and this woman is a SAINT. She is a huge credit to herself. I am a 16 year old girl and ever since I first step foot into the clinic, she has gone above and beyond to make sure every tiny little intricate detail goes checked. Let me have a massive cry in her office, was ridiculously kind and overall a pleasure. I have never met such a pleasant, lovely doctor. Your child will be under AMAZING care with her. Thank you so much for all you have done for me (and continue to do), I am gutted I am too old to be under your service now haha. Brilliant doctor!!!!”

“Always quick to be helpful and if it's not in stock I can get it delivered to my local click and collect Sainsbury's round the corner from my home. I usually order online which saves time and waiting.”

“This practice is friendly and polite. My previous experience at another private pratice was not good. The receptionists here are kind and understanding in person and on the phone. Jo , puts me at ease - as a very nervous client - and always explains clearly what I will need to have done. I appreciate being at such a good dental practice . Thank you”

“Great staffs! I always find that the staffs here are nice, but today was on a different level! My daughter wasn't feeling well today in the toilet. The cleaning lady noticed it and she got other helps, got her nice cold water and got a chair out for her. Other staffs also came and made sure she was ok. Thank you very much all who helped her, especially the cleaning lady!!”

“My child has had 2 surgeries here under the care of Mr Giles and ward 2. The care he receives is outstanding. I have been given a bed beside him and this time we were lucky enough to have a peaceful room instead of the noisy ward. The nurses and staff has made our visits much better than expected, nothing was too much trouble. Ward 2 has a family area where we can always get hot drinks cereal and I even saw a freezer where parents can get a meal and pay whatever they can afford. There is nothing more we could have asked for so a huge thankyou for helping my son through this difficult time. Bless all NHS staff who make a difference every single day & night.”

“I wanted to write a review as a parent, having had a child admitted here last year. I have to admit when I googled the place once I knew it's where my child would be going, the reviews scared me at a time I was already scared. At the time it gave a score of about 2.4/5. I could tell, looking through, that they mostly seemed to have been written by children, but that did nothing to ease my fears or worries. I didn't need to worry though. Right from the first time I pulled in to the car park, the staff were nothing but helpful, kind and considerate. My main experience is of Emerald Lodge. Unlike my experience of a long term stay with my child in a general hospital, it was clear that every member of staff I dealt with here was understanding and empathetic with appropriate awareness of mental illness, and the ability to separate the illness and the child. At their worst, I know my child would say horrible things to the staff, and lash out - entirely caused by the illness, or at least their fight/flight response triggered by it - but the staff continued to treat both my child, and I, with respect, concern and care. Again, this is sadly not the response I experienced after challenging behaviours on a general children's ward, so it was refreshing not to feel judged and like I was responsible for bringing up a disrespectful child. I had to deal with numerous staff over a 4 month period there, and whilst there are some names who will always stick out to me as having gone above and beyond, there is not one person I felt didn't do an amazing job. My experience of the staff at the school there too was also brilliant. Caring people who were happy to talk to me, show me their classrooms, tell me how they'd come up with activities and topics to spark more engagement and interest from my child. I knew I could contact any time, and get an update, even if I'd been there just a few hours before. I knew if it all became too overwhelming, and I ended up a sobbing mess sat on the floor of a corridor, I wouldn't be judged or ignored - someone would make time for me if I wanted it, whether it was to bring me a cuppa and a tissue and give me space, or give me a hug and sit with me. I'm hoping by writing this review I get to help put at least one parent's mind a little more at ease. I know for a fact if my child was the kind to write a review, it too would probably be negative like others on here - but they spent those months there as a child, with a severe illness, away from home, battling their thoughts and being made to follow a routine, including eating, which was something their illness didn't want them to do. Of course they won't say they loved it there. But as a mum, I saw the progress these people helped him make. I saw staff at all levels doing anything they could do engage with him and win his trust. Even now, a good 2 months after discharge, he still uses techniques he was exposed to there, because they helped. He will refer to how certain staff would help him in similar situations (e.g. "we could do what Nick helped me do"). He will randomly comment "I wonder what they're doing at Becton", or remember activities he did there. My child still has a long way to go before he's recovered, if that ever happens, but from the boy who entered Becton, to the boy he was when he left, I just never thought he'd come so far in such a relatively short amount if time. If you're a parent reading this, my heart goes out to you, as I wouldn't wish the illnesses that require going somewhere like here on anyone... but equally, I hope this review helps you feel a little less worried, and gives you some element of hope. I know I will forever be grateful to the people who looked after my son, helped him battle against his illness, and helped him be well enough to come home. I hope with all my heart I never have to go back, but I know if I do, and we receive the level of care we experienced on our first admission, that I can be confident my child is in a place that will help them.”

“I came here with my partner for an early gender scan, booking process was so easy, I made a mistake and they were fast to change it for me, upon arrival, the inside is beautifully decorated with lots of photo and previews of what’s to come and what they offer. They was instantly welcoming, asking if we’re excited, how my partner was feeling and what we were hoping for After a very short wait we went into a private room for the gender scan, it was surreal seeing how much the baby had grown. The sonographer was very nice and talked us through the process whilst showing us our baby in detail. They warned us to close our eyes so we didn’t see the gender too! Once they had discovered the gender we was able to see our baby for a little longer and even see our baby in 4D. After this we were able to sit through and take out time to select which photos we wanted to take back to our families. We even paid for a video of the whole scan! They were very helpful in showing us the differences of the gender reveal items. We went with two confetti cannons. 2 for £15 I believe. They were definitely worth it! So thank you very much for taking care of us and our beautiful baby boy!”

“As a big escape room fan since the days of the 2010's flash games, and having done nearly every escape room in Sheffield and plenty in other cities I can honestly say The Lockup is second to none. The rooms are extremely varied with creative puzzles and fun mechanics I've never seen anywhere else. Most rooms have a secondary objective in case you complete the first with time to spare. It's very clear that the rooms are built by someone who loves escape rooms/puzzles. Liam is a really lovely guy and Hovis (the dog) is an absolute delight also. Cannot recommend highly enough for escape room fans. Would especially recommend Mutiny.”

“Tristan was amazing! Really friendly and had both adults and children in stitches. We hired Tristan for my husbands surprise 40th birthday and had around 80 people there, kids included, and everyone loved the show!”

“Great experience. My wife loved driving the tractor. There are plenty more activities too so we will be back! Great communication on booking, and even reminders of the time and date sent by email and text. They seem a friendly team too. Definitely recommended.”
