Our little boy started at Buttercups when he was 9 months old. As first-time parents, leaving our only baby in other hands after being with him 24/7 was naturally a big adjustment, and building that trust was so important. This was quickly built through regular joyful updates, transparent communicati…

Our 13-month-old started nursery in January, and we had quite a turbulent start as he’d never really been away from me and struggled to settle. The team completely changed that experience. They were so patient and understanding, allowing as many settling-in sessions as we needed and letting me stay u…

Ever since my one year-old has attended Cherubs since September 2025, she has loved her time there and some of the connections she has made with the staff has been beautiful to see.

My daughter has been at Sunny Days for 7 months and we couldn’t wish for better caregivers to look after her each day. The way the nursery keep you informed of their day and activities they get up to is really good and it’s nice to see an insight into your child when they are away from you. All t…

Our 2 year old son is so happy here and absolutely loves his friends and the staff at Little Manor. Which as his parents is all we can ask for.

My son went to this nursery for three years. The nursery was selected due to locality, and recommendation. My son loved his time there. The staff were excellent and he always came home happy. They treated him well and made him feel special. I would highly reccomend it.
