I was nervous sending my little boy to nursery but at Play2Learn they put me at complete ease and were so understanding. My little boy loves it and can't wait to go each morning! The staff are all so friendly and you can tell they enjoy their job.

Play 2 learn is an amazing nursery and my son has been at play 2 learn for just over a year now and has loved it since the very beginning. The care for my son has been amazing, the girls here at play 2 learn do a brilliant job at making sure he gets all the care and attention he needs. My son has created good relationships with all the staff in the baby unit and has now created new relationships since moving into the bumblebee room. My son loves playing out in the new garden at play 2 learn and is always eager to go when arriving to nursery. The management team at play 2 learn are so friendly and approachable and will help you with any problems or issues that you may have. Thank you so much play 2 learn for making my child's journey so special !

My daughter has been attending Play 2 Learn since I returned to work in January 2024. The quality of care and learning she has received in the under 2 unit in this time has been outstanding and I have no faults, it's made my return to work so much easier. Staff go above and beyond to ensure I'm up to date with everything I need to know through the app and they will always message keeping partnerships with parents paramount. Even though she has only currently been in the under 2 unit, the rest of the team are always friendly, welcoming and approachable and all have fantastic knowledge to any questions asked. I'm looking forward to the rest of her nursery journey. So glad I chose Play 2 Learn for her and would recommend to anyone else looking for childcare for their littles.

I cannot speak highly enough of Play 2 Learn. They are truly one of a kind. My Nephew has been at Play 2 Learn for just over a year now and he has come on leaps and bounds. They are so understanding and always provide support and advice when needed. The manager is so approachable and the deputy manager and SENCO is super helpful. The ladies in his room and his key person are just amazing. I wouldn't consider any other nursery for our family.

We love this nursery, the staff are really passionate and can make a difference in the lives of our little ones. My daughter has gained so much confidence in herself (joined when she was 2) and made a lot of good friends. The level of care given to her was incredible, hugs when needed, advice and trust were always there. The activities they do with the children are so helpful in shaping their future. Thank you Play 2 Learn for this amazing journey!

The nursery has been great for my son, he joined shortly after his 3rd birthday and has loved every second he's been at Play 2 Learn. We are constantly updated via the app on what they have eaten in the day and pictures are posted regularly to see what our little ones have been up to in the day. We loved play 2 Learn so much my 2nd son will be joining in September.

I have used Play 2 Learn for both my children, one who is now 8 and one who is 4. The care for the girls is outstanding! Each had a dedicated key person, who really knew all about my child. From their little quirks and their learning journey and supported them to be all that they can be! Communication has been great and has become greater with the use of an app where they can message your key person, see activities they have been doing and receive messages during the day. The management are easy to speak to if you had any problems, nothing was too much trouble, same with the staff in the rooms. The nursery itself is clean and cosy, they even had nursery pets! The garden is lovely and the range of activities in and outside are great, they have different clubs included in the day such as a science club and for one experiment they made a volcano erupt! Thank you so much to the team for all the support, the girls will really miss seeing all the staff!

Play 2 Learn is an amazing nursery. The staff are great and very supportive of new parents. Their settling sessions are great and well thought out to ensure both parent and child are comfortable with the experience. As parents who do not support the cry-out method, Play 2 Learn have been fantastic at comforting our daughter and ensuring she has a tear-free settling experience, and keeping us informed via their app. Thank you to the manager and two particular members of staff for looking after our daughter!

Star nursery! Staff are so attentive, friendly and considerate. New activities are added regularly and you can follow the child's progress on the app which has all their info organized. Messaging system on the app also makes it a breeze to communicate directly with child's key person. Absolutely pleased and impressed with their care.

I honestly don’t have words for how amazing this nursery is. My daughter has been attending this nursery for nearly 2 years and I have been impressed with every aspect of her development since joining. I am quite particular in how I raise my child and very specific with her care needs and I have always been impressed with how well all staff caring for my daughter have taken my instructions. Since being at the nursery my child has formed amazing friendships and bonded with a variety of their staff and that’s a testament to the great environment that Play 2 Learn Nursery provides. They have an app that allows them to update you on a daily basis in regards to every aspect of your child’s care; when and what they eat, when they go to the toilet/nappy change, when they wash their hands, when they sleep! Honestly it's remarkable; I have nothing but positive things to say. If you’re a parent that’s anxious about your child starting a new nursery, rest assured, this nursery is the right choice.

I have positive feedback about this nursery. The attitude there is professional, parents have an app to follow their child’s eating, toilet visits and other activities. My child has improved all his skills since he started nursery at Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays. I have this feedback not just from them, but other play date parents too.
27 September 2023
My daughter has had the most amazing 2 years so far at this nursery! The staff have made us feel very relaxed and reassured that our child is in a safe environment. Over the last 2 years the development progress that has been made is remarkable. There isn’t a high turnover of staff which makes my daughter feel very settled and they all make an effort to know your child which gives it a family feel.

Right from when I came to check out the nursery I fell in love with it. All the staff are friendly and their professionalism is top notch. I never had any issues at all with the nursery or staff. They truly care about the children looking after them, teaching them things to develop their cognitive and physical development and not just after profit making. It is money well spent for me as a parent. I also love the fact that there are two gardens. The front garden where the kids have a well-equipped play area and the back garden where they can learn about gardening, nature, etc. It is also a chance to get some fresh air. My son loves the front garden so much and it helped settle him down in his first week. I would also say the nursery is tech savvy too as there is an app where they keep the parents updated on your child's activities, reviews, what they ate, what time they napped, etc. If you are reading this review do not hesitate to enroll your kids.

I can’t thank you enough for everything the team done for us. From the day we joined the nursery when our son was 14 months old until now he is almost 5, incredible team, management, education, support. The app was giving us the reassurance that he was fine, staff always updating with pictures and progress. Highly recommend.

Play 2 Learn Nursery is a very professional setting with caring staff who go above and beyond to help your little one be comfortable and feel welcomed. They will take my son off me crying in the mornings at drop off and settle him in the next few minutes. Communication is very quick and easy through the app. The app gives you access to your child’s activities and personal progress which is great.

My child started nursery in December 2022 and the nursery staff have been amazing. They welcomed him into the group and really helped him during his first few weeks settling in and helped his confidence grow so much since! The staff have always been great with communication and updates through the app but also face-to-face drop-ups/pickups and meetings, their care and passion for looking after all the children show every time we see them at nursery. All the activities that take place at nursery seem fun, and helpful towards learning and my child always has things to talk about that he enjoys doing each day and also teaching important lessons such as road safety, giving the children a chance to get out and about while learning. My child loves nursery and it’s a shame that he wasn’t able to start here earlier! We are extremely happy with the care he receives at Play 2 Learn.

Our daughter has been attending Play 2 Learn Day Nursery for over 3 years and we are immensely grateful and appreciative of the support, care and just a lovely little “home away from home” setting that all the members of staff have created. What I particularly like is that everyone is friendly, caring and very experienced and our little one really loves her nursery and looks forward to going in everyday.
05 September 2023
My son started nursery when he was 2 years and 2 months, in almost 3 years of Play to Learn, he became an independent child, social, careful and kind. He has been attached to all members of staff because they gave him the chance to express himself and his feelings. When he was upset, there was always someone to give him a cuddle, for that I am thankful and happy. He did find his second family where he was comfortable and loved. Highly recommend this nursery, worth every penny that we have invested in our son's future.

Play 2 Learn Day Nursery have been fantastic. Covid meant he had little social experience by the time he started there - they took the time to find a key person that he could really take to, one that recognised days I struggled and did crafts with my son to make me smile at the end of the day. They have helped support him while we moved home (I kept him there despite the hour-ish commute back and forth as he had built incredible relationships with the staff as well as friends) they took the lead in potty training, even discussing his toilet chart we have at home when we struggled keeping the nappy off at home. Everything they do is with care and development in mind- they are a fantastic team, all of which I have built a great relationship with too, they care about the parents aswell as the safety of the children - my little ones particularly enjoys the extra curriculum activities they provide that enriches the children’s time there further - well done Play 2 Learn.
