"Staff are very kind, friendly and approachable, the management team are always in the office and available for a chat if needed. The nursery is very clean and has a great atmosphere when you walk in which is why we chose it for our daughter. Our daughter loves coming to nursery, she walks in on a morning happy and we get good updates and photo’s on the app throughout the day. "
