Overall Experience

Children 1st @ Sheffield has been absolutely fantastic for both our kids. The staff are great and the outside and inside spaces are really well designed and equipped. There are too many specifics to pick out all of them, however, for example, it was really helpful that the meals at nursery kept our

child's diet more varied during a picky phase. Also, the transition to school went really well and I think part of this was the impact of Children 1st, educationally, socially and in terms of supporting the transition. Thank you so much!

Overall Experience

Our son attended Children 1st from November 2021 to now. He was a lockdown baby, and I had concerns about his social development in these crucial young years. He started his time at Children 1st when he was 18 months old, and he absolutely loved it. The staff and the setting were fantastic. He has now

blossomed into this very happy, social little boy, and we are very grateful to the team at Children 1st.

Overall Experience

Children 1st is a great nursery. My son enjoyed himself and had so much fun there. He told me that all of the food served is delicious and that his teachers were so kind to him. He is usually a picky eater, but he has slowly become open to trying new foods ever since he started going to nursery. He

even asked his mom to cook the same recipes at home. He always looks forward to going to nursery every day. From my point of view, the place and the facilities are the best. We, as parents, always feel so secure every time we drop him off.

Overall Experience

Children 1st is one of the best nurseries I ever had for my kids. The staff and the manager are amazing. My daughter had the best time at the nursery enjoying every day and explaining what they have been done. All because of the outstanding teachers and management. Even I love to go there chatting with

beautiful teachers at drop on and off my daughter. I can't thank Children 1st enough for all the lovely hard work they done to make beautiful memories and put my child in the right way for the next stage of her life. Thank you so much for everything.
And a massive thank you to all the teachers for the hard work they have done.

Reply from Emma Goodall, Director of Quality Assurance at Children 1st @ Sheffield

Thank you so much for your kind words. It has been an honour to care for your daughter and we hope she enjoys her next stage of learning! Your memories are also our memories and we will remember your little one fondly.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has attended this nursery for 2.5 years and it's been a wonderful place for her. Staff are very professional, caring and supportive, and they have helped her develop in so many ways, always taking into account her individual needs. All of her key workers have been amazing and have done

a great job (our daughter loved being with all of them). We are very grateful for their dedicated hard work and for creating such a lovely and nurturing environment for the children. Our daughter has enjoyed all of the rooms she has been to and the outdoors space is great. We cannot recommend this nursery enough.

Our daughter started at Childrens 1st in January, and we’ve been so impressed with how caring the staff are with settling our little girl into the nursery setting. The staff have been brilliant and really accommodating. We would highly recommend Children's 1st from our experience so far.

Reply from Lisa Wills, Director of Operations at Children 1st @ Sheffield

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review, and we are pleased to hear that your daughter has settled into the nursery.

Overall Experience

My son has been going to this nursery since he was 9 months old, and this is his final year before going off to school. Children 1st are such an amazing group of staff, who take the time to work with each child individually on not only your basic skills but also working out emotions and giving them

the best head start to life. Our key worker is a credit to herself and really goes above and beyond for everyone. I couldn't recommend this place any more to anyone with young children.

Overall Experience

Such a wonderful place for our little boy to learn and strive. We especially love how child-centred every aspect of the facility and staff engagement is. He's been going for almost a year now and just transitioned into the 3-4 age group upstairs - a few months ahead of actually turning 3, because the

staff gauged that he was ready and would benefit from doing the transition together with some other classmates. He's quite shy and reserved, and doesn't usually respond well to changes of routine, but settled in absolutely beautifully without any problems and, in fact, with much excitement. Instances like these demonstrate how much the children are individually observed and considered and give us such great confidence, knowing he's in the best hands every day we drop him off.
We also absolutely love all the messy play/creative learning activities that are constantly provided.
Would definitely highly recommend this nursery facility!

Overall Experience

Our son joined Children 1st Sheffield last August and we couldn't be happier with the choice we made. He's made a great connection with his key workers, as well as the other workers and children in his room. Since starting we can clearly see how much he has progressed and come on in his physical, personal,

social and language development and we know a lot of this is down to his time at Children 1st. The staff are all so personable and professional and we have always felt he's in very safe hands. Couldn't recommend this nursery more and we're excited to see what this year holds for him!

Absolutely adore this nursery! The staff's warmth and attentiveness are unparalleled. It's heartwarming to see how they remember our family, even after a break. My son's face lights up every time we mention going to nursery. It's evident he's not just cared for but truly cherished here. Grateful for

such a nurturing environment. Additionally, the food provided here is simply fantastic! It's such a relief knowing my child is not only having a great time but also enjoying delicious and nutritious meals. The smiles on the children's faces during meal times say it all. Kudos to the kitchen team for their efforts in keeping little tummies happy and healthy.

I am really pleased that I made the choice of sending my son here! In just 4 weeks of being part of this nursery, I have seen my son grow in so many ways. He eats much more and is less fussy, he explores so much more and is very attentive to things around him. The staff are great, they are kind, always

ready to update you on your child's day and the attention to care is great.
My son has eczema and they have been very accommodating of the extra requests we have regarding skin care.
Highly recommend this nursery!

The nursery has been a treasure for us. Our child is having the best experience in there, learning new stuff, becoming a social person and of course, loves the teachers. There hasn't been a time that she said she doesn't love to go there. Although the amount we pay is high, due to a full week attendance,

it is the best money ever spent.
