Manor Hill is a great nursery, it was my son's first experience going to nursery and he has settled in great and really enjoys going. The staff are very helpful and friendly and the management is great. I would recommend this nursery to family and friends 100%.

I can't thank Manor Hill enough for making my little one feel so welcome. All members of staff are loving and welcoming and my daughter loves coming to nursery.
They offered lots of settling in sessions which really helped me and her.
I know that my daughter will grow and learn so much here and become
a confident, independent child.

Management and staff always make you feel welcome, seem genuinely interested in your child and take the time to give thorough feedback. My son is always happy to attend nursery and I am confident he is doing well there because of his willingness to go. The feedback we receive (both verbally and via
parent zone) and mostly from the noticeable progress he makes; for example, he could sing the alphabet and days of the week songs, both before he even turned 2! Showing that the nursery has high expectations and good practice of routines. Football and Zumba are super activities too. The menu always sounds yummy. Some concerns with lost property.

This was my child's first experience of being away from me and he settled in really well. Manor Hill slowly settled him in over a week and then the day he started he was fine.
All the staff are very friendly and my son has learned lots of things whilst attending.
He looked forward to going to nursery
and made lots of friends. The manager always helped you out with any problems that may have occurred and she was also very easy to talk to.
I would highly recommend Manor Hill Nursery. Both myself and my son have had an enjoyable experience.

Manor Hill Day Nursery for me and my children is a fantastic nursery. My boys have been there since they were 6 months old and couldn't be happier with it. The staff are all lovely and can't do enough for you. My first son, in particular, has really improved since been there. Definitely, recommend this
nursery.

We were recommended this nursery by a friend and went for a walk around a week or so ago, we were that impressed we enrolled our boy there and then. The staff were friendly and very focused on educational play and nutritional food. There was a fingerprint scanner to enter so nobody could just walk in
and CCTV everywhere the nursery was very accommodating and very focused on what we do as parents and how they deal with things. They also have an online page for parents to see pictures, activities, what the child has eaten and if they've had their nappy changed etc that the child does throughout the day.

Being a first-time mum and new to the area I was nervous about finding a nursery. I am so impressed with this nursery and all of the staff. The facilities are clean and a great size, the food served is very clean and full of variety and the staff are absolutely brilliant. There are always plenty of
events being held for the kids and the communication between parents and nursery is fantastic. Overall fantastic nursery.

Both my son and my daughter went to Manor Hill Day Nursery since they were 6 months old. My boy is at school now and my daughter will go next September. They have always been happy at nursery and I cannot thank all the staff enough for looking after them with dedication and love, and for making them
the two confident and happy children they are.

I would definitely recommend Manor Hill to everyone with children. It is by far the best nursery we've been to and we've gone to four different ones with our two boys. The activities they do with the children are fantastic, the hours offered are flexible and perfect and the staff are just beyond wonderful!
Very friendly and welcoming, with so much care for the well-being of the children.


I couldn't speak more highly of the nursery and the staff.

Really happy with the nursery, my son really enjoys his time there. A slight negative, I was a little disappointed with the price increase shortly, almost immediately after signing my son up, as I wasn't told a price increase was imminent when being shown around a few months before.
Parentzone is
a great tool, it's lovely to get pictures and videos showing what they've been up to. It's better than having bits of paper like before. The only suggestion I would say, it would be nice to also see on there, what they have done in the day i.e played in the garden, painting etc as the information is quite minimal currently. The meals are varied and nutritional. The staff are really lovely and friendly and do a great job, but sometimes they seem a little stretched, particularly at peak drop-off and collection times. Really happy with the learning and I enjoy seeing his development plans on the wall. Staff and Room Leaders clearly have a good knowledge of key development skills.

Reply from Manor Hill, Management at Busy Bees Stratford Court

Thank you very much for the wonderful feedback. Your suggestion has been taken onboard and we will ensure to implement it as soon as we can.

I looked at a number of local nurseries for my 13 month old son and was pretty disheartened. I then came across Manor Hill Day Nursery and was impressed from the moment I entered reception. The manager (Debbie) filled me with confidence and this was the only place to mention the curriculum! The place
was light, clean and very welcoming. I made my mind up straight away! Since starting 5 months ago my son has come along beautifully. He absolutely loves this place. The staff are wonderful, the food is great (my son often asks for 'more') and they have lovely activities eg a visit from the animal man where they get to see different animals. Knowing my son is happy and in good hands is such a relief. I can't recommend this place enough! Thank you Manor Hill!

Staff are always very friendly and helpful.


The nursery is very spacious with lots of interactive and developmental activities and has a good sized outside area.


Our son really loves going to nursery, has made lots of good friends and is developing really well.
