Since my daughter has started in the baby room in November she has already in a short few months come such a long way in her development. Her key worker is great with her and I know my daughter is in the best care with her as they have such a lovely bond. The other ladies are amazing too, they are always
there checking in and answering any questions when needed. It really shows how much the staff care about the children and parents.

Both my children have attended this nursery, and my oldest is now thriving in reception which I believe is due to the amazing staff at nursery preparing him so well for school. My youngest bounces in in the mornings, saying the staff are all her best friends. My children have always loved it here and
I couldn't be happier!

My son has been attending since 10 months old, he has thrived with the care and support of the staff within the nursery. I'm always filled in about how his day has been and they go above and beyond for my son, even down to meal times and meeting his needs/preferences.
My son loves being outside and
the fact they have such a big outdoor space is such a great feature that he benefits from every day.

My son has been attending from the term after his second birthday and we as a family have had a long wait for a referral due to speech delays etc and have had a diagnosis of duchenne muscular dystrophy in the mix as well! Although we are still waiting on the other referral, the staff have always been
so supportive not only to our son but to us as a family too and little one has come on leaps and bounds since he started attending. Great setting for any child regardless of needs! The garden is definitely my sons favourite place to be.

My twin sons have attended Shoreham Day Nursery since February 2022, and I can honestly say the staff have been incredible and so supportive of our boys every step of the way. One in particular has helped us navigate the world of SEND, and honestly, I don't know how we would have gotten through the
process of obtaining an EHCP without her. I would wholeheartedly recommend Shoreham Day Nursery to any parent due to the caring nature of the team, the effort they put in, and the lovely amount of outside space that the nursery has to offer, but particularly to parents of SEND children, as their knowledge and support has been invaluable.

Reply from Jess Robertson, Social Media Coordinator at Shoreham Day Nursery & Pre-school

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It means the world to us to hear how much our team has supported your boys on their journey. We are especially proud of our SEND provision and the dedication of our staff in ensuring every child thrives, so it's wonderful to know that their efforts have made such a positive impact on your family. We truly appreciate your recommendation and kind words about our nursery, team, and outdoor space. The staff will be thrilled to hear such lovely comments! Thank you for trusting us with your sons' early years! We like to make sure that our amazing practitioners are recognised for their hard work, so if there are any names you would like to mention specifically, please let us know.

The toddler room has been a fantastic space for my granddaughter's growth and development. I've noticed incredible improvements in her social, cognitive, and physical skills. The structured environment, filled with engaging activities, has helped her gain confidence in exploring new things and interacting
with other children. The staff take the time to understand my granddaughter's needs. They have made this such a positive experience for her, and I'm so grateful for their dedication. Two members of staff in particular have been absolutely amazing in making the settling-in process for my granddaughter smooth and reassuring for both her and us. From the very beginning, they've shown genuine warmth and care, creating a comforting environment that puts our minds at ease. Their constant communication and thoughtful updates helped us feel connected and confident that she was in the best hands. Their patience and understanding, especially during those early, emotional days, have made all the difference.

My niece has been attending Shoreham Day Nursery and Pre-school for some time now and I can't believe the developmental change in her. When starting she had very little language but now she is non-stop talking, the nursery support the family while the challenge of potty training occurred giving great
advice and tips! I can clearly see the positive relationships she has created at the nursery with staff and children. Mainly the manager and another staff member in particular she always looks forward to seeing. The staff are clearly dedicated to my niece's learning, always explaining what she has been doing for the day and giving ideas on how her learning can be incorporated at home too.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since Oct 2023. She is currently going through a CDC referral and I honestly couldn’t fault this nursery with supporting her needs. Everyone on the staff is very welcoming, and the manager of this nursery goes above and beyond to support the children. She
also takes a great time around pick-up time to discuss the day they have had, which I think is really important. The nursery itself has a wonderful garden and there is also lots of sensory play facilities inside and out which my daughter thoroughly enjoys.

Shoreham Day Nursery and pre-school have gone above and beyond supporting my son. He joined the nursery when he was 2 and will be leaving soon to go to school. I have truly never met such passionate individuals who want what is best for the children but are also there for us as parents with any advice
and support we may need. I am truly thankful that my son got to go to this nursery and had the best start for his future. He is also a typical boy and loves to be outside, the garden is amazing!

Our daughter joined Shoreham Day Nursery and Pre-school at 14 months. We viewed many nurseries, but received the warmest welcome on our first visit here from all the staff. Since then, our daughter enjoyed coming to nursery every single day. It has spacious play areas inside and a beautiful big garden
open to enjoy throughout the day. Food is always cooked fresh and delicious, as my daughter would say ‘more please’. Staff members are very friendly and professional, always offering their time to discuss our daughter’s day at pick-ups. They truly became nursery family who we will always be grateful for. You have been fabulous! Thank you for hours of fun and learning that our daughter enjoyed each day and for always being so supportive also to us parents. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

As a first-time Mum, Shoreham Day Nursery & Pre-school have made me feel really at ease. They have been so attentive from our very first visit and continue to be so, always asking if anything has changed in my son's routine and calling us if they ever have a query. All meals are cooked fresh, and so
far, my son hasn't turned anything down! They are committed to sustainability, using organic toys, minimal plastic and recycling where possible. I feel that they are very invested in the happiness and welfare of the children they look after. My son (and I!) have settled in very well. Many thanks, all.

My two-year-old son, who is a lockdown baby, started in January doing two half days a week; he was struggling with his speech, and he also doesn’t like crowds of other children. He has come out of his shell whilst being at Shoreham Day Nursery and Pre-school, and the staff and manager always keep me
up to date on his progress with his speech (which is coming along amazingly) and how he is finally making friends with other children and playing with them instead of sitting playing by himself. I and my partner are incredibly happy with the manager who went through the process of helping us with the registration process and the three-year funding. Thank you to both the manager and the staff for their outstanding care and support.

My son has been attending the nursery for two years now. He has additional needs and finds it hard to express himself and be in groups with others. The nursery staff have always gone above and beyond to make him feel safe, happy and secure to be able to express himself and find the courage to get involved
in group activities. The manager has always been so supportive towards his needs and always allowed whatever routine was needed for my son to be able to ease into his nursery day with zero fuss. They often have various different activities, which have helped my son's speech and language abilities when he’s not confident in trying to say new words and initiate conversations with others. I don’t think I could recommend this nursery or the staff enough!

Both my girls came to the nursery at a young age. My youngest is now in the toddler den/room; she loves the staff that work at the nursery and has made some lovely friends. The staff have really taken their time to know my daughter's likes/dislikes and interests and have supported her in meeting all
of her developmental needs. My daughter has formed loving relationships with the staff, and I feel at ease when I leave her there on morning drop-off. The nursery is very much child-focused and provides them with different learning activities/opportunities, inside and outside. Thanks to the girls for making my girls feel so comfortable and happy - you really have made a positive impact on both of our girls.

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 58 number of registered child places is 11.6, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
