Amazing nursery. Our daughter has always enjoyed going. She has built strong relationships with all of her key workers and really enjoys seeing them at nursery. The activities/ lessons that she participates in each day are always fun and educational. I really believe that the nursery puts the child
first in everything they do! All the staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Currently my daughter attends the nursery but my son also attended from baby to school. Fantastic nursery, cannot fault a thing! Brilliant outdoor space and equipment, the staff are all very competent and friendly and well trained for learning development. The play equipment is great for learning and
fun. Food is homemade, nutritional and varied.
Building is well maintained and clean. The management and staff are always happy to help.
Both my children love/loved attending the nursery and have made very happy memories here.

My daughter has been at this wonderful nursery for 3 years and my son starts soon. I do not hesitate to recommend it to friends. It has fantastic staff, a great outside space and all my queries are always answered helpfully. My daughter has brilliant care and is enthusiastic about play and learning.
She has made great friends and enjoys going to nursery. She missed it so much during lockdown, and on reopening had significant procedures on place to protect children. My daughter always speaks positively about her day and we get great daily feedback and photos through the Tapestry App of how her day has been. The nursery has a wonderful friendly, family style feel about it and all the staff know you and your child. They are accommodating of any changes such as dietary needs or medications and nothing is a bother to them. Highly recommend!

My eldest daughter attended from 9 months until school. She loved it so much she’d return if they admitted 8-year-olds. My youngest is currently in the toddler room having recently moved from the baby unit.
I can’t recommend this nursery and the wonderful staff enough. The nursery workers are so loving
and caring with all the kids. Nothing is too much trouble. My daughter had a fantastic relationship with her key worker in the baby unit and is now establishing a real fondness for her current key worker. It’s comforting to know she’s so well looked after.
I get a full report on my child’s day when I pick her up- she’s always had great fun Crafting, singing, playing etc. She particularly loves the nursery garden: a train, sandpit, mud kitchen, slide, swings, playhouse, tricycles- honestly, it’s a kids’ dream.
I am confident that my child is safe, well cared for, stimulated and encouraged to explore at nursery. We are so grateful as it allows us to work without having to worry!

Our Daughter and Ethan attend McMillan Nursery and absolutely love it, they are greeted so warmly and made to feel very special. Our daughter had previously attended another nursery while being on McMillan's waiting list and never wanted to go inside and cried a lot but now she has a smile on her face
and is always very enthusiastic about her day.


The staff are second to none they go above and beyond to make the children feel happy and content each day, we always receive very positive feedback each day from our children and the staff alike, and feel very comfortable leaving our children in their care.


Two members of staff really stand out for us and they are whom have aided our Daughter greatly in her happiness and development. We are always well informed with emails and the Tapestry.


Overall our children have a great time, they feel safe and well fed and we have total confidence in the wonderful staff at McMillan.

I have two grandchildren attending Margaret Macmillan Nursery School. I have nothing but praise for the standard of care given to each of them. All the staff are very attentive, and professional in their approach to our family.
Our three-year old's learning and independence are developing extremely
well primarily due to the wonderful guidance of the staff.
