It's the first time I've had to use childcare in the holidays for my two children aged 8 and 10, I was a bit apprehensive knowing how easily board my 2 get. However, I didn't need to worry they have both had a blast in the holiday club and did not want to leave. They have even made me pinky promise
that they can go in the next school holidays lol. I can not recommend Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre highly enough my kids think they are amazing which is good enough for me lol

Reply from Nicola Knight, Operations Director at Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre

Thank you for your lovely review.
We always try to ensure that we have a range of activities that will keep everyone entertained. When children don't want to leave at the end of the day we know that we've done a good job!

Our daughter has been coming to Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre for a little under a year now. The staff are fantastic and such a wide range of activities are provided. Zizu's are flexible and keeps us informed. I would quite happily recommend.

My daughter is having the best time. I am satisfied with the cooperation of the staff and the facilities.
I would definitely recommend that this is the best place, where I even dropped my six-week-old baby also and I am satisfied that my baby is in safe hands and will have the best time, while mama
goes to her university.

Our son joined Zizu's in April 2020 when he was 3 years and 4 months old. He was at another nursery that was very close to our home but we are so pleased that he changed to Zizu's even Zizu's is 12 miles away. He had a wonderful time in the last 18 months with all his friends and the brilliant staff
team there. He came home with excitement and a smile every day. I find that all staff in Zizu's are very friendly and helpful. I can feel that they really look after the kids and love to be together with them, not just treating it as a job. It is easy to have some nice staff in a nursery but with everyone being nice, it is exceptional. Zizu's is also very considerate in all aspects. They never send kids home for just a couple of loose nappies. We were actually surprised and very grateful that Zizu's refunded all the fees during the nursery closure during the pandemic, even though it is not their fault at all! Thank you very much to the manager and the team! Highly recommended indeed!

Thank you so much for your review. We are extremely proud of our staff members and always strive to provide the absolute best possible care for all children. Your son was a delight to have and we wish him all the very best for 'big school.'

Zizu's Children’s Day Care Centre had the most positive impact on my son. The manager and all the staff are professional, kind and supportive. The facilities and resources are wonderful, everything is bright and cheerful and fun. The activities are all creative and engaging. My son had such a happy
time there, he really did thrive. I honestly can’t recommend it highly enough.

I cannot thank all the staff at Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre enough for the top quality childcare they provide. My children settled in nicely and enjoyed being there. They regularly organise stimulating activities for the children, including outdoor events and arts and crafts. The children love
every bit of their time there and are always looking forward to attending again. The children also enjoyed their meals. What is more for the parents, is that they are flexible about dates, drop off and pick up times and have been a saviour on a few occasions where we didn't plan ahead for the school holidays and had to call in the morning to attend the same day.

I've had three of my children attend Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre and I would recommend their services in a heartbeat. My children love going. The staff are always happy, helpful and are really flexible to work around your needs for your children. Although it's not the closest nursery to me, I
wouldn't have my children placed anywhere else. They are an absolute gem in the childcare profession.

Reply from Sarah Fletcher, Manager at Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre

Thank you so much, It's lovely to hear how happy you are with Zizus. We're all delighted to have been a part of your children's lives as they grow up and look forward to many more happy years ahead.

Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre is an amazing setting with fantastic staff and management. My daughter has come on amazingly. I will be sad when she leaves and goes to full time school, as I am sure she will be, also. She has been going to Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre since being around eighteen
months and has always loved going and settled really well.

Reply from Sarah Fletcher, Manager at Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It has been a delight to watch your daughter grow and develop so much during her time at Zizus. She will be sadly missed when she leaves for school, although, we know she will love it there too.

Both my children have been coming to Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre since 2017. Starting in preschool, wrap around breakfast, after school and now every holiday. The holiday club Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre provides is tailored around the children. Daily outdoor activities and trips away, where
they have visited so many new places. They always come back full of excitement and lots of stories to tell. The kids skip into Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre in the morning and I am under strict instructions not to collect them too early because they want to spend as much time at Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre as they can. They have made so many friends who they see outside of Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre as well because of the shared connection they have. I couldn't recommend Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre enough. Staff are brilliant, really accommodating and flexible.

Thank you for your lovely review. It's great to know that your children continue to enjoy their time at Zizus as they grow older. We absolutely love having them in Crazy Crocs Holiday Club.

My grandsons attended the holiday club after spending successful preschool years here. The staff are all pleasant and helpful and really care for the children. The holiday club has a good variety of days to choose from and as they enjoyed it so much, they are booked again for this holiday.

Reply from Maaz Rahman, Owner at Zizu's Children's Day Care Centre

Thanks for the lovely review! We are delighted to hear that they enjoy our Crazy Crocs Holiday Club and it is a pleasure to have them as part of the Zizus club.

We have a 2-year-old who does three full days at Zizu's and my 6-year-old uses the pickup and drop off service for school. They both love Zizu's. Running in on a morning and hard to get them to want to leave. They do a variety of tasks and provide a variety of experiences for my 2-year-old. The staff
are wonderful, help with any and all problems. Do their utmost to care for the children in their care. They are also very flexible and help whenever we need to change any of our arrangements.

My boys love Zizu they are always joyful to go and enjoy their day. The Staff are always welcoming with a smile and hugs filled with love. We love everything about Zizu.
Every morning after dropping them off I go to Uni with no worries about them throughout the day because I knowing they are in good
hands. We get their daily activity sheets and also pictures on tapestry witch shows that they don't just go to play but to learn and explore things.

My daughter loves attending Zizus Children's Daycare Centre. She has come on leaps and bounds since starting a few years ago. I am really impressed with the staff and facilities made available. I really like the mobile app which is regularly updated by staff showing what she has been doing during the
day.


I would certainly recommend Zizus Children's Daycare Centre.

My daughter has been attending Zizus for a number of years. Zizus has played a huge part in developing her communication skills and she looks forward to going to nursery everyday. She has made a lot of friends and is always telling us about the fun she has had. She has bonded really well with staff.
They are very welcoming and continuously provide feedback on her development.
I would highly recommend Zizus to anyone who is looking for a fun, educational and healthy environment for their little ones.

Food is also served to the children. Which makes it a lot easier for me and my wife with our work schedule.

I first went to have a look round Zizu’s when it was still a building site. I could tell that this nursery was going to be something a bit different from other nurseries. Since then it has been lovely to see how they have changed and adapted the nursery to suit the needs of the children.
The staff
are lovely, I always feel welcome as soon as we walk in. The staff are always happy and always pleased to see my son. They have a lovely outdoor area for the children to play in. My son loves to be outside and there is so much variety of outdoor toys for them to play with.
Each day the children are made fresh homemade meals that are healthy. They also have snack time with plenty of fruit and water to drink.
Zizu’s use an app for parents to show what the children have been up to during the day, which I love and use myself to show what he has been up to on his days at home.
The location is also brilliant. I work in the town centre so I'm close to the nursery.

We decided to move our daughter to Zizu's after reading the reviews and her not having such a good time at her previous nursery. We were a little anxious but it was the best decision we ever made! Firstly the staff and manager are absolutely fantastic, accommodating, all approachable, warm and friendly.
We have experienced no issues with regards to flexibility on days and times needed, as this was also a concern of ours since working in the NHS.
We have seen a big difference in our daughter's mood and attitude with respect to attending nursery. She is more keen to attend, and at the end of the day appears happy at having had a fun and productive day. Her learning has improved as well as her communication. Selection of healthy meals and snacks is good, and she seems to enjoy them. I have been particularly impressed by the teaching of the benefit of eating healthily and how to make good food choices and why! Activities are excellent and very creative. She loves her baking!

My son is in preschool at Zizu’s at present and the staff are so lovely. Even though there are other children in the room I often feel as though my son is getting one to one attention. The activities are varied and there is a wonderful outside space for him to burn some energy off. It is very reassuring
that I get sent pictures about what he’s done during the day and I also like that these are shared on the Facebook page.
I also like that there is a cook on site making home cooked meals and these are nutritious and healthy.

My child has settled in so well in the nursery. He absolutely loves the staff and screams with delight when he sees them. He waves bye when we drop him off and is always happy when we pick him up. It is such a lovely touch when he brings home cards for various celebrations throughout the year. On
Valentine's Day he brought home a bunch of paper flowers and a lovely card for his mummy and daddy. These are such lovely keepsakes. The meals prepared are very healthy and he is encouraged to try different foods and feed himself. The communication throughout the day is exceptional and his parents are sent photos of him which is very reassuring. We feel that he is very safe and secure in a friendly, fun environment while learning. Sending him to nursery has been one of the best decisions we have made as he will develop social skills and independence. If you are unsure of where to send your baby/child please visit Zizu. You won't be disappointed.
