Our child has been at the nursery for almost 18 months and it is like a second home to her. She's so excited to go every day! The staff members are all warm, welcoming, loving individuals and every single one, from the housekeepers to the cook, are fantastic with the children. Day to day, the kids do loads of activities - arts, crafts and messy play - and the staff have started doing lots more learning activities recently. The nursery itself is very clean and a lot of effort has been put into sprucing the place up. The outside areas have been greatly improved recently as have the indoor displays and it's now a really welcoming environment. Some bits are still a little rough around the edges and need a kick of paint, but nothing major. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to friends and family!

My children enjoy coming to nursery, play different activities, learning new things.

All staff from baby room, toddler room, office to kitchen staff are very welcoming, always put on a happy face and are genuinely interested in you as a parent as well as the well-being of your child! It is such a comfort to have my only (very spoilt) little boy in this nursery as I know he is cared for and nurtured to the high standards I require. The facilities are ever changing, meals nutritious, outings regular and faces always smiling.

Our experience with Corner House The Grange baby room has been wonderful. From our first visit, we were impressed by the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff are exceptional-trained, professional, and incredibly caring. Our son has thrived under their care. Each caregiver takes the time to understand the needs and personalities of the babies. Their genuine affection and dedication are truly heartwarming. The well-balanced meals are thoughtfully planned to meet the babies' dietary needs. Our son always looks forward to mealtimes and has developed a healthy appetite. We always feel well-informed about his daily activities and progress. The regular updates and photos are reassuring, showing our son happy and engaged. Overall, the loving staff and nurturing environment have given our son a fantastic start. If you seek a place where your baby will be cherished, I highly recommend Corner House The Grange. Thank you to everyone for making our son's time with you so special.

Lovely nursery in a great location and with a car park. The staff are all very friendly, helpful, flexible and great with the children. Our daughter loves playing, learning and seeing her friends. In the warmer weather, they play outside a lot.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for coming up to two years now. Both our experiences has been faultless and she loves going to nursery each day, has a great relationship with all staff and has come on leaps and bounds since starting.

It’s the fantastic staff who make this place! They go the extra mile and really care about the children. New spaces for the younger children are looking fantastic too, keep up the amazing work guys!

My child has been with the nursery for two years and has enjoying his time there. I believe staff know my child well, and understand them and their needs, and in turn I believe my child to have a good connection with staff. I have also noticed the setting make an effort to provide the children with experience outside the setting, such as going for walks in the local area, or visiting the local library. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and personable, from the teachers in the rooms to staff connected with the day-to-day of the setting. A recent change in management has seen some welcome improvements in communication with parents, changes to the running of the nursery for the benefit of staff and children, and an effort to enhance the appearance of an older building and make it more presentable. The nursery has good sized outside garden spaces for the various age groups, not something that can be taken for granted in a city environment.
17 January 2024
The nursery is going through some changes which I hope to be good for the children attending, with new staff, room layouts and resources. The staff are understanding and caring towards the children's needs. The food prepared within the nursery is of good quality and a wide range of variety.

My toddler has been attending Corner House Nursery The Grange since November 2022 and we are delighted with his progress and the care he receives. All practitioners are knowledgeable, caring and know each child individually, therefore able to best cater to their needs. With the nurturing environment providing a 'home from home' environment, we, as parents, can tackle the day ahead knowing our child is extremely happy, is learning, well socialised and loved. I have already recommended the nursery to several friends who are eagerly awaiting places for their children. Thank you.

I highly recommend this nursery for its exceptional care of children with special needs, such as my son who has type 1 diabetes. The staff are highly trained, dedicated and provide exceptional care and education for all children. They go above and beyond to create a nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters growth and development for every child, including those with special needs. The attention to detail in the curriculum and care plan for my son's diabetes is truly remarkable. The outstanding facilities provide a safe and secure environment with a wide range of resources for children to explore, learn and play. I confidently recommend this nursery to any parent seeking exceptional care for their child. Thank you for all that you do.

My little girl loves the Corner House Nursery The Grange. She has such a lovely relationship with her key worker and it has such a lovely homely feel to it from the chef who knows all the children to the manager who is so approachable. The manager goes above and beyond when it comes to the children. I couldn’t ask for a better nursery setting for my child. They make me feel at ease when I am leaving my child in their hands.

Corner House is excellent. Our two daughters go there and they both love it (the staff, the different rooms, the outside space and the other kids). We've been so impressed by the love and care the staff provide to the children (they really do care), and the number of activities the staff do with the kids. It's really helped our 3-year-old develop and become more able to manage and articulate her feelings/emotions. I can't recommend this nursery highly enough!

Brilliant nursery with great staff. They made my son feel very comfortable considering he doesn't speak English yet. Thank you very much.

The care that my child got from the nursery staff was great. In terms of the settling-in period, the nursery provided enough sessions for my child to get settled. I could see a great amount of growth in my child in terms of doing things independently. The nursery has a good amount of outdoor space for the children to explore about, a fun way to keep them entertained with different play activities. The space is safe with multiple gates and fencing allocated to different age groups. Nursery staff takes initiative for celebrating different festivals, making children aware of multicultural events happening around them through various methods & activities. Good hygiene, safety, cleanliness & learning is provided. Taken good care of my child, comforting the child while sleeping (Cuddles) and providing a cosy space for the child to sleep. Overall an amazing experience!

The staff are great! My child moved from another nursery and the transition was great. My child settled in and is loving the nursery. The staff have been very caring. My child has made many new friends. The management team are great at communicating with parents. The outdoor spaces are great, especially for a city centre nursery. Meals, nappies, and wipes are provided.

Staff: Exceptional staff in both preschool and Ladybird rooms, can't praise them enough! From day one they fully supported our kids to onboard, considering their personal preferences and needs. There's a friendly atmosphere around, one can see immediately, and our experiences with staff and management are all positive. Nursery: The rooms are well equipped, there are plenty of activities throughout the day and kids are encouraged to join small group activities too that helps my son to build confidence and relationship with his peers. At the end of the day at pickup, we are always being briefed and also receive updates and pictures on the app. Overall: We are very satisfied with Corner House Nursery The Grange but, most importantly, my kids love being here, they can't wait to go back the next morning and I think this tells it all!

My son settled in very well in the baby room from 12 months old and the care he received from his 'key worker' was excellent. The bond he has with her is lovely to see and it was very reassuring to see that he was so happy in her care. His transition into the toddler room happened just after he turned 16 months and it went very smoothly. We took the key worker's advice that he was ready to move out of the baby room a bit sooner than we expected and her advice was correct. He is thriving with the activities and crafts that he is offered and again my husband and I are very happy with the care he receives. This is very reassuring when he attends the nursery for such long days, whilst my husband and I are at work. All the staff we have come into contact with over the past 6 months have been friendly, professional and we appreciate the great job that everyone at Strawberry Hill does. My only criticism is that the billing has been quite late a couple of times.

All of the staff are very friendly and extremely accommodating of any special requirements. My daughter really enjoys her days at Strawberry Hill and it is great to see all the updates online about what activities she has been doing. Spending time in this nurturing environment has been excellent for her skills and development.
