I found that the staff are very welcoming and made me and my daughter feel at ease as my daughter was new to nursery.
While my daughter and I were getting used to being part of the nursery, staff were very good at calling me for a few days as she eased in by letting me know how she was doing once
I dropped her off.
Also, when she is with cold and cough, they were understanding while my daughter got better at home.
So happy with nursery knowing my little girl is okay and in good hands as she learns and plays.

I cannot recommend Sunshine & Showers enough! Both of my children have attended this nursery and have both loved going; they are always happy when I collect them. They have both gained so much confidence. My children always come home with lovely artwork they have done while being at nursery. The staff
spend so much time making, learning fun and fitting so much into a day. My son loves every second of coming here. They have a wide range of activities both inside and out, and I also love that they spend a lot of time playing outside and always have a messy art option to get involved with! The nursery is very informative about all information necessary, and the app is amazing getting to see what my child has been up to during the day. All the staff are amazing at what they do, and the support they give to not only me as a parent but to my child is fantastic. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

Sunshine & Showers was the perfect nursery to send my shy child to. The staff were incredibly attentive to my daughter, including the manager, who went above and beyond to ensure I was always well informed and able to access information easily. I cannot fault this nursery; it was such a lovely place
for her to go. I felt she had so much 1:1 time with the different ladies; it truly will be a treasured memory of her being there!

Honestly, the best nursery around. The staff here go above and beyond. Being a young first-time mum, I had no idea what I was doing, and they helped me so much. They supported me through my son’s struggles with eating and with his ASD diagnosis. They were incredibly patient and were always willing to
adapt to whatever my son needed, no questions asked. Would recommend it to anyone 100%!

Since being back in the UK, of my currently nine children, I have sent four children through this nursery; I still have one there and will send my next two. I absolutely go that extra mile from this nursery. (I have a few nurseries a bit more local). The manager is lovely and takes the time to speak
about any concerns. The staff are fantastic, the nursery is a superb, clean, friendly, happy, loving environment. I couldn't ask for more for my children. They have loved their time there. 5-stars!

We are very happy with this nursery and with the staff. Our son went there, and he got all the help he needed to integrate, and we have always been informed with pictures about the activities that he is participating via the website. I give a max rating for this nursery and stuff, all my gratitude.

The staff here are amazing. They give each child a keeper who has helped our little boy leaps and bounds with his speech. Would thoroughly recommend it to any parent thinking of starting their little ones on their first learning journey.

I cannot recommend Sunshine & Sowers enough! Both of my children have attended since March 2021. My eldest ( now 5-years) has since gone on to reception class, and my youngest (3-years) still attends 3-days a week and will be increasing their time there in the near future. I feel that my eldest was
supported immensely by the staff with his transition to reception, and they worked wonders in ensuring he was both emotionally and intellectually ready to move on. Both of my children have developed tremendously in the short time that they have been going to this nursery. Their speech, emotional and social skills greatly improved, and both children were quickly and confidently using pens, scissors and creating amazing works of art. Their confidence has grown in all areas as a result of them going to this nursery. The staff are extremely supportive and very professional, friendly and approachable. They give thorough handovers daily at the school gate and via the app.

My daughter started going to Sunshine & Showers when she was 2 years old. Although she was a little nervous to begin with, the staff were amazing at helping her settle and as they use the Tapestry app, I could see straight away that she was happy there.
They continually kept me up to date with how
she is getting on with lunch, social behaviour and were amazing during the potty training period, my daughter loved the sticker chart they used and came home feeling like a big girl every day.
They have a wide range of activities and I love that they let them play outside so much. The nursery is very informative about all information necessary (illnesses, sun protection details, upcoming events etc). I have seen my daughter's skills improve tremendous amounts in the 2 years she has been there. Myself and my daughter will both very much miss everyone at the nursery in July when she leaves. I would recommend Sunshine & Showers and their staff to anyone looking to put their child into nursery.

It's a fantastic nursery. My daughter has gained so much confidence since coming here. They spend so much time making learning fun and fit so much into a day. My daughter loves every second of coming here and the staff are amazing. My daughter struggled with her speech to begin with and now they are
preparing her for the move to school this September. I would recommend this nursery to everybody.

All 3 of my children have attended Sunshine and Showers in Dymchurch. My youngest is currently there. She is 3. The staff are fantastic with her, she is very independent and loves to learn. The staff do so much with her and every day she has learnt something new. The nursery is always clean and the
staff are polite and professional at all times. My daughter has never become upset or distressed when I go. My daughter is currently fascinated by feathers and growing plants and the staff have used this to encourage her to grow a range of different plants and celebrated the homegrown fruits and vegetables she has shown them. She has collected feathers inside and outside nursery and staff have shown her different ways to use feathers for arts and crafts. I look forward to the next year my daughter has at nursery.
