Clever Clogs Day Nursery (Bowburn)

from Charlotte S (Mother of Child) published on 20 March 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our daughter has been attending Clever Clogs since September 2024 and we can honestly say, she has loved every second! We feel confident in leaving her as she runs in on a morning with a smile on her face and rarely turns around to say goodbye. They have always gone above and beyond with their care,
daily activities and giving frequent updates throughout the day on the app. Our daughter has formed relationships with the staff members in her room as she comes home to tell us that they're her "best friends". When picking her up at the end of the day, the staff can't tell you enough about how her day has been, what she has eaten and any activities she has been doing. Our daughter's speech and confidence has come on leaps and bounds since starting at Clever Clogs and we can't thank the staff enough!

My little girl has been attending Clever Clogs since September 2022 and honestly we would not go to any other nursery. In all her time here we have never had any problems, she loves going to nursery and whenever we pick her up she always has the biggest smile on her face! The ladies that work here are

Little Ladybirds Day Nursery

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

We are so happy we chose little ladybirds for our little boy to attend when I went back to work. He is absolutely thriving and has come on so much since he started. The staff pay attention to his home routine and have always followed this. On drop offs and pick ups the staff are warm and welcoming,
and always give an update on how the days been. I love the app they use which keeps us updated in the days with things like food, drink, naps, and nappy changes as well as pictures and a write up of what he's been upto in the day, this really gives me peace of mind when I'm at work. I cannot recommend this nursery enough for little ones.

Little Ladybirds Day Nursery

from Caroline D (Mother of Child) published on 19 March 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Little ladybirds have been great since our little girl started nursery in October. I started taking her for taster sessions for a few hours and working up to full days which was good for her to get used to going. The app is great as the staff always update you how your child's doing and what they are
eating throughout the day and they provide a great variety of healthy meals for children.
They always answer any questions you have throughout the day while your child's there which I think is great. The staff are really friendly and I feel my little girl is very safe with them looking after her. my little girl really enjoys going to nursery there , I would highly recommend little ladybirds as a nursery to parents.

Reply from Claire Harrison-Jones, Manager at Little Ladybirds Day Nursery

This is such a lovely review to read, here at Little Ladybirds out partnership with our families is such a valuable thing and we pride ourselves in ensuring the whole family is happy within the setting.

The staff at little ladybirds have made the transition to my little one starting nursery the most supportive and positive experience it could possibly be. They are willing to accommodate for the individual needs of each child who starts and go above and beyond in terms of ensuring they are building
trusting relationships with the babies. Nothing is too much trouble.

The nursery as an overall is brilliant. The staff are friendly and efficient.

The nursery is always clean and the staff in the office are

My son really loves Clever clogs. He always goes in happily and is completely comfortable with all the staff who have made him feel very welcome. He follows a meat free diet and there's never been any issues and he is always catered for. The activities always look fun and he loves to get involved. The
staff always give us updates on his day but also his development. We are really happy leaving our child here with such a lovely group of people. Thank you x

The staff seem to genuinely care about your child and one of my favourite things is when I go to pick up my kid or drop them off - the staff that don't work with my kid on a daily basis also know them well and my child recognises them and I think that's really lovely. I do feel they are looking after
my kid like it is their own which is always such a relief as a parent.
They have strict rules in place for food allergens as well which must be really good for any parents sending kids in who have allergies.

Reply from Donna Green, Nursery Manager at Clever Clogs Day Nursery (Belmont)

Thank you so much for such a kind and heart felt review. All the staff go out of their way to ensure they know each and every child in the nursery, It's essential for us when it comes to the transitions too. I have passed you amazing feedback on to the team and they are so thankful for it. This means the world to everyone. Thankyou.

My little boy has been going to Clever Cloggs for coming up to a year and the way he has developed is incredible!
The staff are always so lovely during drop offs and pick up times!
My little boy is only 1.5years old and has made such a connection with the staff he knows their names and has become
so much more confident in talking to people.
I couldn't reccomend this place enough!
He has so much fun each week and is learning so much!

My son has been attending Clever Clogs since January after we moved houses and we're very impressed with the professionalism of the staff and how much our little one has developed in the last couple of months. We're very happy so far with them and very impressed with the way they help children learn.
Communication is also fantastic, we're always aware of what's happening with our little one.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

It is now six months that our two-year old joined Clever Clogs Day Nursery (Belmont), and I am very happy to say that the experience has been excellent, for us and for him. Our son is always happy to leave home in the morning, and just goes inside his room at the nursery without even looking back. When
I pick him up, he is all excited and says goodbye to everyone.
Staff are really caring, and our son has developed an excellent relationship with all of them. When I pick him up, they tell me about what he did during the day, and they provide a beautifully written report every month where they detail the progress that he has made. He engages in carefully planned activities and is provided with plenty of resources to develop himself and discover new experiences. It is very reassuring to see how much progress he has made in these six months.
Clever Clogs are also very strict in relation to safeguarding, which is very reassuring.
In summary, he loves them and they love him!

Reply from Donna Green, Nursery Manager at Clever Clogs Day Nursery (Belmont)

Thank you very much for such a delightful review. We adore every moment with the children. It is paramount they are provided with stimulation activities which help them in every way to learn and develop. We really couldn't ask for a better transition to be a part of, The bond your son has with staff is outstanding, it's bee a pleasure for us all.

Both my children attend Clever Clogs nursery. The staff have been amazing in all the rooms they have been in right from the baby room up to pre school. My children are thriving and have shown so much progression over the years.
It is easy to communicate with the nursery using the family app and they
reply straight away.
It is apparent that the staff love working with the children and take time to really get to know them. Both my children skip into nursery and it's lovely to see and reassuring for me.

Amazing nursery that provide excellent care and support for my child. My child has developed so much since starting nursery last year. Their confidence has grown so much and to have watched how they have developed has been a joy. The food is always amazing and there is plenty of variety so my child
gets to experience different foods and meals. The staff are always friendly and supportive, it always feels like one big family. My child is always very well cared for and loves going to nursery. The facilities are always clean and there is so much for my child to do. I love being able to see daily updates on the app and love seeing the pictures of my child during their day at nursery. I couldn't be happier with the nursery and my child has thrived so much since starting there. It is an amazing place and I am so grateful to all the staff for their work ethic and support.

My little boy has been attending Clever Clogs nursery for 6 months now. He was very anxious initially and we had a few tricky drop offs but the staff were all fantastic at easing him in, building those important bonds and making him feel comfortable. He now excitedly shouts 'yeah' when we ask if he's
going to nursery so we couldn't ask for more. All the staff are friendly, approachable, professional and it's evident they enjoy what they do. Attending clever clogs has been great for his development, his talking has come on fantastic and he definitely enjoys his nursery days.
