Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with Ruddington Day Nursery. Our son absolutely loves it here. Since day one when he was only 10 months old. I was so nervous dropping him off at nursery for the first time but any worries I had quickly disappeared. His face lights up when he sees his key people, they are so good

with him and he has so much fun. We get regular updates on everything he eats, how many times he has a nappy change, updates on his naps etc. The nursery has a huge garden as well and he regularly plays outside which he loves. He's come on so much since being at nursery, he's learnt to walk, and sit at the table to eat, his speech is also coming on and I know it's down to the care and attention he gets from his key people. I'd recommend Ruddington Day Nursery to anyone.

Reply from Robyn Hattingh, Marketing Team Lead at Ruddington Day Nursery

Thank you for your review of Ruddington Day Nursery. We are so happy that your worries have disappeared since seeing how much he enjoys nursery and is developing. Our amazing team knows how stressful the transition to nursery can be and does their best to support both you and your baby during this period. We love being a part of their development and giving them every opportunity possible to thrive.

Review of
Ryan House Day Nursery
from Madeleine H (Mother of Child) published on 15 October 2024

Overall Experience

My daughter has attended since June just before her first birthday. Her development since starting has been unbelievable. The staff in her room set goals for her to walk which she achieved quickly as they set up activities that encouraged her to start taking steps.
Her general confidence has increased

and she has become very interactive. She absolutely loves the staff, even the staff from different rooms or departments.
The nursery is very good at getting the babies outside playing and also different types of messy play. My daughter is always clean when I pick her up despite the messy activities.
There also seems to be a very good variety of food. My daughter can be quite selective but is definitely trying more foods now.

Reply from Robyn Hattingh, Marketing Team Lead at Ryan House Day Nursery

Thank you for your lovely review of Ryan House Day Nursery. We are so glad your daughter is enjoying our nursery school so much! We do everything we can to provide excellent care and education to each child, in unique ways that are best for them. We really appreciate your feedback and we're so glad that it has been (and will continue to be) a positive experience!

Overall Experience

All three of our children attend Ryan House. We are exceedingly happy with the nursery, the staff and the care and learning opportunities offered. The facilities are excellent and the space available is used well. In the past year, many rooms and displays have been revamped, spaces like the climbing

frame room and access to the open field by the cricket club at the rear give our oldest, in particular, the space for lots of exercise and fun physical activities. The sports day this summer was fantastic, with so much planning and preparation put in.
I would specifically praise the staff, who have all shown so much warmth and kindness to our kids. There seems to be far less staff turnover than other nurseries. The core of each team works so well together and communicates clearly with parents. Staff from the other rooms know our kids by name too, so there is a really welcoming atmosphere where everyone knows everyone and there's a feeling of happiness. Our kids love it!

Reply from Laura Wiltshire, Marketing Executive at Ryan House Day Nursery

Hi there, thank you so much for such a glowing review of our Ryan House Day Nursery and Preschool in Nottingham. We are so pleased to hear that you love everything, from the education activities to the staff team at the nursery. We are also so glad to hear that you have been happy with the renovation that has taken place and can see a massive difference that this makes to the space and the education and care we can offer. We always do our best to hire passionate, hardworking and knowledgeable staff that is also the best fit for the team. Again, we are so happy that you're enjoying your nursery and preschool experience!

Overall Experience

Our little boy has been attending Radcliffe-on-Trent Day Nursery for around 18 months now and he thoroughly enjoys his time there. Each target he's been set has been built upon and it is evident that he's being guided and taught the skills to achieve these, rather than him just meeting them in a developmental

manner. He has good relationships with staff and children alike - even ones not in his room, which gives it a lovely family feel. He enjoys a wide range of food (much of which he wouldn't even consider touching at home!). We're beyond happy with our experience and the staff - we couldn't be more thankful for our little boy being loved by those caring for him throughout the day.

Reply from Charlotte Whyatt, Marketing and Communications Executive at Radcliffe-on-Trent Day Nursery

Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's great to hear that your little one is enjoying his time here! Children are nurtured and supported in their development and enjoy plenty of stimulating opportunities for learning through activities, which are informed by our bespoke education programmes.

Overall Experience

My 3-year-old (pre-school) and 1-year-old (tigers room) both enjoy going to Ryan House. In pre-school there have been lots of 'school leavers' activities including phonics, writing their name and trying on the school uniform. They run a forest school although my 3-year-old wasn't very keen on going.

In the tigers room we get a few photos on the app every day and see what activities are planned for that day. The climbing room is great and the outdoor space has recently been improved. They also have access to the cricket field. In the last few years there have been a lot of changes with the nursery being taken over by Grandir but everything has settled down now. Sometimes the menu seems a bit too adventurous for 1-year-olds!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Ryan House for the last year and I've been so impressed with the love, care and attention they've shown her. We receive an update each day with the activities the children will be doing and the staff take the time to put out activities they know the children have a particular

interest in; it's great seeing how child-centred they are. The majority of days we will also receive photos of what our daughter has been up to which is lovely. They frequently update the app throughout the day so it's great to have the ongoing reassurance around food, naps and nappies. Ryan House have actively taken on board feedback from parents and regularly communicate the changes they're making and what events are planned in the future. I couldn't recommend this wonderful nursery more. Thank you Ryan House team!

My first child attended Ryan House from age 10 months to 4 years (she's now in school), and now my second child attends the nursery. We only have positive things to say about Ryan House. The staff are brilliant and so attentive. Both children have always had the best time every day with so many activities

to keep them busy. Their confidence has grown too, especially with my first child. The staff at Ryan House really helped her confidence grow ready for starting primary school.

Overall Experience

Ryan House is a phenomenal nursery. Every day, activities are laid out for the children and they get such a variety. Our daughter loves it there and the key people always tell us what she's been up to and where we can support her or just celebrate in her learning. They subtly help the children to learn

how to look after themselves and prepare for school/life, all in a really fun way and a relaxed environment. We came from a much more expensive nursery but our experience of Ryan House is exceptional in comparison - the processes and management all just work and it's a really happy, supportive atmosphere. The staff turnover is low which says it all really - they treat the staff well and help them progress in their careers - these happy staff go the extra mile for the children. I absolutely love it and I'm only sorry we didn't find it earlier for my other children!

Overall Experience

We moved our son to Ryan House after a bad experience with a local nursery. We were immediately greeted with warmth from the staff and an impressive playroom with lots of different imaginative props and costumes as well as a fantastic climbing room. Alongside this, our son has issues with his speech

and the staff went above and beyond to help him with this alongside allowing his speech therapist to visit and show staff what to do with him. In addition, the frequent trips to a local care home to engage with the residents and trips to town on the bus to a Chinese restaurant we are so happy we made the change to this nursery.

Overall Experience

Would be nice to see regular photos of the children during their time at nursery they seem to be very few these days. Can get confusing at times with specific event dates as informed of one date then changes to another needs to improve so that parents can plan. Since moving into preschool it would be

nice to know future dates of when they will be assigned to the external activities - care home visits did not have any update on when or if they’re going.
Forest school dates when your child is assigned to these so that you have plenty of notice to get the relevant clothing etc.
I did overhear that the minibus was out of use but we should be being notified about this. Items of clothing going missing having to chase for them to be returned have actually given up as I shouldn’t be having to do this.
I would however like to say that the lady in preschool is always so welcoming, smiles and always provides great feedback on collections she truly is an asset to the nursery and the kids love her.

We’ve been really happy with Ryan House since our daughter started there in January. We had been nervous about it but all the lovely team have been so kind and supportive to our daughter (and us!) throughout. From the settling-in process, right through to today we’ve felt really happy and supported.

They provide regular updates throughout the day. We love how they start the day by sharing what they have planned for the kids and how this helps development. The activities always look so engaging, imaginative, fun and we love that they also tie in themed play too - it’s been especially sweet seeing activities for World Book Day, World Down Syndrome Day and Easter recently. They also share photos which is reassuring to see our daughter having fun and settling in. They are great at updating us on her interests and development too and make suggestions of what we can do at home. The food made by the lovely chef always sounds healthy and delicious too. Thank you Ryan House!
