My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since joining this nursery. Her confidence has grown tremendously. The staff are so friendly, considerate and on the ball. My daughter loves going to this nursery and gets so excited about attending and that's down to the staff making it a fantastic environment

for children.

Overall Experience

My firstborn joined when he was just 2 and a half years old, amidst all the pandemic drama, and he is now in year one at primary school. I was very nervous to send him, especially as we had just had another baby. The staff at YMCA Hurst Hill are literal diamonds! He absolutely flourished and I will

cherish all the love and care he had at this nursery. It was such an easy decision to then send his brother as he grew older. His brother, a lockdown baby, is the polar opposite and can be quite anxious however he has blossomed so much and has grown his cheeky character from strength to strength. Recently he has been diagnosed with coeliac disease and the nursery has been so accommodating to adapting their usual routines with him, and we are so grateful. He is due to start primary school in a few months but we won't be saying goodbye just yet as the boy's little sister is due to start soon when I return from maternity leave.
Couldn't rate them more. Like family to our family.

Overall Experience

I am delighted to share my positive experience with the nursery where my twin boys have been enrolled for almost two years. The nursery has played a crucial role in the development of my boys, as they have not only learned to identify colours and objects but can also read large words now. This remarkable

progress is a testament to the dedicated educators and the nurturing environment provided by the nursery.
I must also commend the manager of the nursery for her exceptional understanding and support during challenging times. When my family faced financial constraints and had to reduce the attendance of my boys at the nursery, the manager was incredibly empathetic and worked with us to find a solution that aligned with our needs.
Overall, I am immensely grateful to the nursery for their outstanding care, education, love and support for my boys. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent seeking a nurturing and supportive educational setting for their little ones.

My 10-month-old has come on leaps and bounds at the setting. The team is fantastic and the baby adores them all. It's hard dropping them off but the smile on their face makes me see how happy they are there.

Overall Experience

This is not the first time I have used this nursery, my older child was here when it was first opened and now my boy is a lockdown baby and he had social anxiety. I worried so much about getting him settled in. Within a few days, he was happy to wave me off, it was like he was at home with the girls.

One lady is absolutely fantastic, she became his best friend immediately. I am so relieved with how easily he fell in love with this setting and all the girls are amazing. I can not thank you enough for all the work you have put into my son.

Overall Experience

My son started at YMCA Nursery in the middle of September, 2023 after his previous nursery closed down, giving me a day's notice. My experience with this nursery has been absolutely brilliant. The staff in the baby room are brilliant, very prompt in dealing with any issues. Management and deputy are

also amazing. It's a well-led, caring environment, safe, and very responsive. As a mother, these are all qualities I look for. I would definitely recommend this YMCA Nursery to anyone. To all the staff, please continue to keep working hard, because it is very much appreciated, especially your dedication and commitment.

Overall Experience

My daughter really struggled with the settling in sessions, however the nursery accommodated further sessions to support her and have since been amazing with her. My daughter loves the nursery, they provide efficient handovers, answer any questions and the amazing quality of care is evident in the relationships

they have with the children.

Overall Experience

We love this nursery.
Our daughter's difficulty settling because she'd never been away from us, the lady who collects the kids at the door - took the tears and tantrums in her stride. Her two key workers have such a brilliant relationship with her, and now she absolutely loves going to nursery. She

is developing so quickly now, and they are unlocking her potential. She comes home singing songs, dancing and always happy.
The report cards are useful, and all members of staff are friendly and open.
The site is secure, and we feel safe in the knowledge that they are doing the best for our little girl, and our next daughter will be joining her here too.

Overall Experience

My daughter started this nursery 12 weeks ago, she absolutely loves it. The staff are incredible they have been understanding and helpful in certain situations that have happened in the short time she’s been there. She always comes out with the biggest smile and tells me she’s had the best day. She

also loves the commitment that the nursery has shown to her development by teaching her new things all the time. My daughter loves how she’s allowed to access all parts of play without restrictions. I wouldn’t have chosen another nursery for my little girls it’s absolutely amazing

The first time I was scared to leave my child under anyone’s care and return to work but YMCA @ Greets Green puts my mind to rest. Everyone is so warm, helpful, welcoming and very friendly. It’s been nearly 2 years since my child started the nursery and I've seen lots of improvement. Thank you and keep

it up.
