Wonderful nursery. Our son loves going and has built-in confidence in just a few weeks he’s been there. I’m always amazed by the exciting activities and I know he loves healthy and delicious food! The staff are also brilliant and you can tell very caring.

Overall Experience

My Granddaughter is now an Explorer at Naturally Learning Falmouth and it’s lovely to see how well her communication, movement and fine motor skills are all encouraged and developed at Nursery. She has always loved being outside and taken a great interest in trees and plants and this interest really

thrives with their focus on learning about nature, the seasons and practical skills and with the many opportunities for art and sensory play.
Regular daily pictures of activities, food and trips make us feel well connected even though we can’t easily visit. The imaginative menu and proper social dining environment have definitely helped our Granddaughter become more confident with new food experiences.
Feel so blessed that Naturally Learning Falmouth has a nursery with such a fantastic ethos and dedicated team!

Overall Experience

Naturally Learning Falmouth is amazing. My son loves it, and gets to learn through experience and nature. He can freely explore the world around him and I feel safe that the staff are well equipped and knowledgeable to help his development and keep him safe as he explores his boundaries. I love that

he spends so much time outside too. He's well and truly tired when he gets home but in a great way and always has some story to tell. I feel the staff are communicative and open and very supportive, and the food they provide the children is diverse and nutritious, catering for all sorts of dietary needs and choices - and delicious looking always! I wouldn't hesitate recommending them to others.

Overall Experience

I love Naturally Learning Falmouth. Our first child attended naturally learning and now our second child is as well. She absolutely loves going to nursery and I love picking her up and seeing how happy and confident she is. It’s honestly the very best start any parent could ask for their child. Just

today my daughter was taken out and about to learn about springtime flowers. I am always in awe of the playdough and sensory trays made up daily, there is so much thought that goes into every activity. The food is also superb, neither of my daughters are fussy eaters and both love veg and I believe it’s down to the variety that they are offered here.

The key workers and other staff are fantastic with my son and we also have above and beyond help from the SENCO staff too. We love that they promote independence and even help with his social side since we’ve had a new baby at home. Really happy with Naturally Learning Falmouth for our son!

My son is new to Naturally Learning Falmouth but in his short time at the nursery, he has been so happy. He is always excited to attend and has lots of positive reflections on his day when we pick him up. As a parent, the nursery has been incredibly supportive, available and welcoming.

Overall Experience

We love this nursery, our daughter settled in so well and has come on in leaps and bounds since starting when she was one. She is a happy, confident child who always runs happily into nursery at drop off, this is in no small part down to the wonderful staff at Naturally Learning Falmouth. The activities

each day are varied and really focus on developing each child, the staff have a real understanding of the individual child and how to best support them. The ethos really comes through in everything they do and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending this nursery for just under a year and he loves it. He isn’t used to being away from his mum and I worried a lot about this. At first we had a few tears but after a few days he settled right in and now he can’t wait to go! Lovely nursery in general. The lady that runs it is

great and the staff are so welcoming and friendly. My son loves his nursery workers and his friends at nursery. The indoor and outdoor grounds are great. Lots to play with and not much plastic. It is a little more price wise than a few other nurseries but it’s definitely worth it. I would recommend it to everyone and I spent a lot of time and consideration choosing my sons nursery.

Overall Experience

As a first time mum, I went to see a lot of nurseries when I started looking for childcare and as soon as I was shown around at Naturally Learning I knew I had found something special. From day one they have made us feel so welcome and I drop off my daughter every day in the knowledge she is having

a wonderful time and cared for by a fantastic team. They really listen and see each child for the individual they are. The beautiful and inviting way in which they present the daily activities, provide sensory and outdoor play has a way to capture the children's imagination in a truly unique way. I recognise a lot of my own Steiner/Waldorf school background and it means a lot my daughter is now experiencing it as well. I talk about where my daughter goes to nursery wherever I go and can't recommend or praise them highly enough!

Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Naturally Learning in Falmouth since the age of 10 months and we have been incredibly happy with the level of care and support he has received from all of the staff during his time there. He is currently in the Pre-School room and will be starting school in September, whilst

we are very sad to think that he will soon be leaving the Naturally Learning family we are extremely pleased to know that he will be as best prepared as possible for the transition due to the hard work provided by the team. We find the 'Famly' app to be incredibly useful for keeping up to date with what he's been doing throughout the day and having access to photographs is brilliant. We also find that the development tracking and observations that are made and listed within the app to be a great way of knowing where his development is at any given time. The bonds and friendships he's made are testament to the environment created within the nursery. We couldn't recommend it enough.

My boy is really happy at nursery. He absolutely loves his days there and comes back home tired, but happy. We feel the communication with the staff is excellent, both formal and informal, such as at pick up and drop off. I trust them completely with his care.

Overall Experience

Our daughter loves nursery! She is in the baby room and always reaches out for her carers eagerly when we drop her off in the morning and is full of smiles when we collect her. She eats much better since joining the nursery, probably largely because of their great varied menu. My daughter loves the

sensory trays, which have new textures to explore everyday. She also loves exploring the outside space, playing with the teapots, buckets and investigating the soil! We love that the toys are all made from natural materials not plastic and that the children are really encouraged to explore their environment. The staff are all lovely and caring, they make an effort to talk to you at the end of each day about what they’ve been up to and how your child is doing. The app is also really good. It’s useful to see what your child has eaten and we love getting photos each day. It’s great that Grandparents can see these too, especially as we’ve been unable to see them in person.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has been attending Naturally Learning Falmouth since January 2020 and we could not be happier with how it has gone. She comes home from her days at nursery chatting and singing away, which is a testament to how much she enjoys it. The staff are wonderful, showing real dedication, caring

and are the reason my daughter feels so happy in attending. The activities they put on are creative, varied and have enabled my daughter to grow in confidence and develop skills in lots of areas. There is great communication via the app with pictures and information about what the children have been doing which is uploaded throughout the day. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience

My little girl started at Naturally Learning Falmouth just before her first birthday. I was very impressed with how well she settled and the care taken over this. Since then she has been in the baby room but recently transitioning up to explorers toddlers. Again, this seems to have gone well and the

nursery have been very communicative about the process. The online system where you get photos of what they are up to each day has been absolutely fantastic during the pandemic year, when we have been unable to go into the rooms and it is lovely seeing what they are doing. There are a lot of wonderful, creative and craft activities! I have felt very confident in all the staff, they are very caring towards the children and my little girl loves them. Their outdoor space is pretty good and they definitely make the most of its potential. They have also gone out of their way to support early potty training when we started this at home and even though this isn't the norm, I have really appreciated this.

Overall Experience

I had some concerns about how my Granddaughter would cope with a nursery environment having been with both parents in a small flat, with minimal social contact for much of her thirteen month life before moving to Cornwall. Naturally Learning Falmouth have supported her to make the transition and she

reaches out eagerly to her nursery assistant on arrival.
While parents can’t visit during Covid-19, Naturally Learning Falmouth provide daily photo updates on the activities and themes for the day and a good range of photos of the babies and children immersed in their activities. We love the natural, plastic free environment.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to Naturally Learning in Falmouth since December 2020. She settled in really quickly, and absolutely loves going to nursery. Every morning she wriggles and shouts with excitement when we get to the door, and she always returns to me with a big smile and lots to say about her

day.
The staff are all great; patient, caring, friendly and really understand my daughter’s personality. The app is great, with just the right amount of information and photos on their day. My only slight issue would be the amount of notifications you can receive before you work out how to turn these off, and sometimes you can miss some important messages on the newsfeed. The new doorbell app also works really well!
The activities are varied and creative, with a strong emphasis on the children’s current interests and always using clever and creative ways of bringing nature into their play. Ideally, the outside space would be better, but it’s perfectly adequate. Thank you team!
