My daughter has been coming to the nursery since she was 10 months old and she loves s attending and has really settled in well. The staff are great very reassuring and so is the nursery manager. She is excellent with reassuring and talking you through things even if it is a few times. We are really

happy with this nursery.

Excellent nursery, my daughter has come on so much since being at this nursery. My daughter has been here since 18 month old and has had a great experience. I would highly recommend sending your child to Aunt Mary's Day Nursery.

Overall Experience

Our son absolutely loves going to nursery, the team at Aunt Mary’s are so kind, compassionate and brilliant with all the children. Our little boy has progressed so much since going to Aunt Mary's Day Nursery, in all areas of development. He started when he was 14 months old and as a first time mum I

was nervous about my baby starting nursery so young, but the team are brilliant and keep you updated through the day, which was a real comfort.

Aunt Mary's Day Nursery is such a lovely warm atmosphere, every morning everyone is so lovely, it feels like home from home. Our boy is progressing so well and we enjoy getting his regular progress reports. We love the focus on outdoor play and the children get the opportunity to explore outdoors. I feel the nursery work really well with parents in getting the best for the children. The use of flexible days is also brilliant for us as a family and this benefit is great to have, especially being on shift work, it works perfectly for us.

Overall Experience

Since my daughter has started nursery at St Mary’s she has really developed her confidence, language and her motor skills. The staff have been amazing and really welcomed her, making her comfortable at leaving me when I go to drop her off. We really do love it here and would highly recommend placing

your little ones here. The meals always sound delicious and I feel safe that my child is in their care. Also, it is based in such a beautiful area with plenty of nature around the nursery where they tend to go for walks and learn about nature.

Overall Experience

Aunt Mary’s Day Nursery is a fantastic nursery which I would recommend to anyone. The staff are accommodating and caring to each childrens needs. The progress in my child from the first day was amazing, and knowing that Aunt Mary’s Day Nursery has had a profound effect on the upbringing of my daughter

is so heartwarming. If I were to have another child, there is no doubt in my mind as to where I would be sending them. Thank you for everything the team have done over the past few years to nurture my daughter into being the cheeky and loving little girl she is today. She will definitely miss every single person in the nursery.
Value for money is definitely something you get at Aunt Mary's. From the range of food to the care and education they provide - top-notch in every department.

Reply from Siobhan Murphy, Manager at Aunt Mary's Day Nursery

Thank you for your kind review. We know that your cheeky little miss will do fantastically at school... and we will miss her too!

Overall Experience

During his time at Aunt Mary’s, our son has thrived and absolutely loves it, as do we. We particularly love that the nursery is in Healey Dell and that the children are encouraged to explore nature and the surrounding environment. If you want your child to come home looking pristine, this might not

be the place for you. But for us, the grass stains and muddy wellies are a sign of a day well spent. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this setting to prospective parents and will be sad when the time comes for our son to leave. Aunt Mary’s has definitely set him up for his next step into big school.

Overall Experience

My son absolutely loves his nursery. The children spend a lot of time walking and exploring the Dell. The policy of the nursery is to spend an hour (at least) outside every day come rain or shine, which I think is fabulous! The "Aunties" are all fabulous, every time I pick my son up they are singing,

dancing, playing with them or making artwork or playing in the garden. Send your little one in clothes you don't mind getting messy! Their help with potty training has been invaluable and I'm always kept up to date with what my son has been up to during the day. Couldn't recommend more!

Overall Experience

My child loves going to Nursery and enjoying both indoor and outdoor play. It is in a great setting and my child loves to explore the surrounding area. The staff encourage and praise the children when they have done something well but are also strict when it comes to behaviour which is not acceptable,

giving the children learning skills in understanding right from wrong and preparing them for reception. Also, my child loves the food prepared at the Nursery and eats better than at home!

Reply from Siobhan Murphy, Manager at Aunt Mary's Day Nursery

We definitely have high expectations of all our children, promoting behaviour and independence, and it is always evident. As for the food, we make sure that all the food is made fresh on site, from scratch, and include lots of fresh fruit and veggies and foods from other cultures. The children love the lunches and variety of desserts they have over our five weekly menu. It is one of the things they miss the most when starting school, and we always get requests for recipes from parents when their child is missing their favourite too much!

Overall Experience

This is a fantastic nursery, both my teenagers went here so when I had my son, there was no doubt he would be attending here. Extremely flexible with days and hours which is a godsend. They keep us up to date about everything with him. The best thing about this nursery is the location and all the outdoor

adventures the children get to go on. He absolutely loves going to nursery and all the staff.

Reply from Siobhan Murphy, Manager at Aunt Mary's Day Nursery

Being able to support a whole family is a wonderful part of the job and means we don't totally lose touch with the children we have cared for. Having staff who remember children's older brothers and sisters, cousins, grandparents, dogs, really helps with the family feel we strive for. We are so glad to have your littlest one here with us.

My son loves going to Aunt Mary's Day Nursery and absolutely loves the staff, he has loads of fun having adventures in the nature reserve and always come home and share the new things that he has learned about and the books they have read. All the staff are fab and I love the fact all of the meals and

snacks are cooked fresh and they have things like chickpea curry and chicken jambalaya. It makes me happy knowing he is getting the best care while I am at work.

Overall Experience

My 3-year-old started Aunt Mary’s in May, he has autism and when he started had very challenging behaviour and was nonverbal, in the short time he's attended he has made superb progress in all areas. He is socialising with other children, he is saying full sentences and the improvements in his general

behaviour is remarkable. He loves the nursery and I can not thank the staff enough for the amazing work and care they have given him. An outstanding team, the time, care, attention, and understanding of each child and their individual abilities is priceless.

Reply from Siobhan Murphy, Manager at Aunt Mary's Day Nursery

We are so glad that we were able to make even a small impact and, just as with every child, we just want the very best for them and will do whatever is necessary to ensure that they reach the highest of heights!

Overall Experience

Our son absolutely loves his nursery and his Aunties, they are fabulous with him. They support him with his education and emotional growth but also us with advice and support. I love how he can go on nature walks or have water days when it's hot, there is a great focus on nature and being part of it

which is one of the reasons we chose this nursery. The app allows me to know what his day has been like and what he has eaten so I can plan evening meals. We can also communicate with the staff or management so easily with the app. I would highly recommend Aunty Mary's, it lets children be children but also grow with independence.

Reply from Siobhan Murphy, Manager at Aunt Mary's Day Nursery

We are always there for our parents, it doesn't even end when your little one goes to school! We still have parents getting in touch way after that. Once you are a part of the Aunt Mary's family, you always are!

Overall Experience

My son attends this nursery 4 days a week and he absolutely loves it (sometimes would prefer to stay at nursery than come home haha which speaks for itself) the girls in pre-school have been fabulous with my son and do what they can to meet his needs. The nursery setting is in the heart of Healy dell

and a very homely environment that puts the children at ease. Staff go above and beyond with the children in their care. My son is due to leave here soon but my second son will be following as will my youngest very soon. Staff are very friendly, approachable, and welcoming. The managers run the place great and if any queries or issues they are spot on! I honestly couldn’t ask for a better nursery to send my son. Special thanks to members of staff in preschool for just being amazing with my son, he idolises you all!

The 7am start is a massive help and I do not know any other nurseries that offer this. The nursery is in a great setting and they’re always playing outdoors and going for walks into the Dell, which the children love. The menu is great and there is a wide variety of food available. They cater for children

with allergies, which has helped us.

My child has been attending this fabulous nursery since they were a small baby and it’s lovely to see the friendships blossom. The staff are very friendly, firm but fair and it’s plain to see they all care about each and every child. The location is amazing and all the children get to experience this

with nature walks, etc. Communication is good and the food sounds and smells amazing, with great variable menus, this has helped my child develop a wonderfully varied and nutritious diet. I know they are in safe hands here and I’ll be sad when it comes time for them to leave for school.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Aunt Mary’s since she was 6 months old. She loves her time here learning and playing with her friends. She talks about the brilliant Aunties often and it’s so reassuring as a parent to know she is in safe hands whilst I’m at work. If she is ever feeling emotional at a drop off

the Aunties are always on hand to give her a cuddle. I would, and have, recommended Aunt Mary’s nursery to my family and friends.
My son left Aunt Mary’s in August 2021, after being there for over 4.5 years. As a first-time mum, I was a little bit nervous when it came to looking for a nursery, as I had no experience of what to check for, but from the moment I walked past and enquired about a place the manager instantly put me at ease. He started when he was only about 6 months old and stayed all the way through until he started school. My son loved his time here! He still likes to hello to the staff members if he’s ever with me to collect his sibling. It’s lovely that they all remember who he is too, as it makes it feel more like a community rather than just a business. He also has friends from this nursery that are now in the same class as him at school. I asked him what he liked most about going to Aunt Mary’s and he said he “liked going outside in the yard and playing in the play shed.” If you are looking for a local nursery in a great outdoor location I would definitely recommend Aunt Mary’s.

My son can be very shy, especially around children and people he doesn't know, the aunts at nursery have always been so good with him, make him feel part of everything even when he would rather just hide under a rock! Can not thank them all enough for the love and support they have shown to him, and

me! Brilliant nursery and highly recommended.

Reply from Siobhan Murphy, Manager at Aunt Mary's Day Nursery

We have loved having the chance to see him blossom! It has been a pleasure to support him as he has done so, and to be able to see his little personality as his confidence has grown and grown!

I currently have my grandson at Aunt Mary's. He will be leaving this time to go to big school, and I will then bring my 2nd grandson to you guys, I can't thank you enough for how well you all are with not just my grandson but all of the other children at Aunt Mary's. The location is fantastic for all

the little ones. You do so much with them from potty training them to taking them on little adventures in the dell. I will recommend Aunt Mary's to everyone I know. Thank you to all of the staff at Aunt Mary's and to the person who prepares the meals for the children.

Overall Experience

Before I even had my little one, I had already had my heart set on her coming to Aunt Mary's, mainly due to the beautiful location and the fun adventures I knew the toddlers got to go on. It just seemed like such a unique and perfect setting for a child to go to. Fast forward to my little one turning

1 and she has now been at Aunt Mary's for a month and the difference I have seen already is amazing. She is becoming such a confident girl and can tell she loves her two days a week here. All the Aunties are wonderful and so caring, which is a great reassurance to a first-time Mummy. My girl gets to play outdoors and take part in messy play, which she loves. They update you throughout the day on their app, which is brilliant, as I feel that tiny bit more connected to her, when I'm missing her whilst I'm at work. Thank you for being so wonderful and I'm looking forward to watching her continue to grow in your amazing nursery.
