I have three children who have all attended or are currently attending Shapes Nursery, and I cannot fault this nursery. They have been wonderful in every way, providing support at every step of the journey. I fall in love with the teachers every time; it's so comforting to know you're leaving your children with such caring and nurturing individuals. I can't recommend Shapes enough.

It’s a really hard decision to make when looking for someone else to look after your most precious gifts in the world. Shapes Day Nursery made the whole process of going back to work so much easier for me. They helped put my mind and feeling of guilt at ease. The staff are so lovely and all the children love them so much. I love the way all staff know all the children’s names and likewise. I felt it was like one big family, which helped me make up my mind in choosing them, along with the lovely home cooked food menu, and great garden I have never looked back since, all the love care and compassion is shown every day. My baby has been going now since September 2021, and she was only 6 months old when she started. They have all helped her grow and achieve her milestones along the way. They have no problems in taking time to listen to your worries, achievements or even your babbles after a sleepless night! They are so caring. I am so glad I chose Shapes Day Nursery and would highly recommend to anyone.

I am highly recommending Shapes Nursery in Reigate. My son started in May and I can see good changes in his personality, he's become more independent, more sociable with other children and his appetite improved. I am extremely happy with the care that the staff are providing for my son.

My children have loved attending Shapes Day Nursery, Reigate, all staff members have been really friendly and we feel really sad to say goodbye, we would highly recommend Shapes to any of our friends and family.

We can’t recommend this nursery enough. Our eldest went there, and our other son and now our baby is there, and they have all absolutely loved every second. The staff are all lovely, and we can see that through our baby too, always a smile on to go to nursery. I have no doubts and have never had any concerns. A cut above the rest!

I've had three children go to Shapes (the eldest is now 13 years old!), and there is absolutely nothing I can fault the nursey on. The service and team are as good today as they were 11 years ago. All my children have been so happy there and can't wait to get there. Thank you all so much.

My daughter has attended Shapes Day Nursery in Reigate for six months now, and I cannot rate them highly enough. They were so lovely, kind and reassuring in the beginning when I was so apprehensive about leaving her, as she had never been with anyone other than myself or her father before. She now waves me goodbye at drop-off as she is so excited to start her day there. I love how the staff have a little story to tell you at pick-up about what your child has done that day. You can really tell they care.

From the moment I stepped inside Shapes Reigate, I knew this was the place for our daughter. It was bright, exciting, and most importantly, it felt safe. I could see children playing freely with all the different toys/activities set up on the tables, and the staff fully engaged with the children. My daughter was invited in to play, and the children were so kind and gentle; this I fully believe comes from having nurturing staff that creates a friendly and inclusive environment. My little one loves the outdoor playground, and it’s always a good day when they have visited the soft play area! We used to have tears at drop-off at a previous setting, but now I have to work hard to get her to come home! I have full faith and trust in the staff to not only look after but to nurture my child whilst she is with them, and I have seen this in person when catching a sneak peek at pick-up. We are so happy that she will have a few more years here! Highly recommend!

Fantastic nursery! Shapes have been looking after our nearly 2-year-old boy for nearly a year now, and we've already signed up our second child for next year. All staff are always extremely friendly, genuine and always go above and beyond!

There aren't enough positive descriptive words in the dictionary that can help me describe Shapes. Shapes are the most incredible nursery you could choose for your child. Shapes not only help your child to develop in all areas physically, mentally and emotionally, but they care for your child as if your child was their own. You will never have to worry or fear about your child's safety or happiness here, and the staff always go above and beyond to care for not just the child, but for you as well. My children have been attending Shapes since 2018, and I'm going to be sad the day my son leaves. I can't recommend Shapes highly enough; you will not be disappointed in this nursery. The facilities, the food, the staff and the enjoyment that this nursery offers are impeccable. The nursery is clean. It's bright. It's fun, it's loving, and it's always full of smiles. By far this is the best decision I ever made for my children to send them here, and I cannot thank Shapes enough.

Both of our children have attended Shapes over the last four years, and we have been delighted with it. Our kids settled so well, and the staff have always been so supportive and caring towards the children and us. Both children have learnt so much and been prepared for starting reception perfectly. We have recommended Shapes to friends whose children now also attended and have loved the experience as much as we have. Cannot fault it at all and will be sad to say our final goodbyes in September. Thanks to all the amazing staff!

I have sent two children to Shapes and cannot praise them enough. Both of my kids have thrived there, being supported in using baby signs before they had verbal language and then developing quickly under their care. I knew as soon as I visited Shapes that it was the right nursery for us - the staff are welcoming and engaged, the kids are happy and always involved in a range of activities, and as they get older, they experience dance and language lessons that are included in the fees. The site is colourful, full of the kids' gorgeous artwork and doesn't have the corporate vibe that some nurseries do. The outside space is also well imagined and provides lots of fun activities for children to take part in. Shapes are pragmatic when it comes to child illness, did incredibly well through Covid and have honestly felt like an extension of our family. I would encourage you to take a look and see for yourselves; you'll know quickly if Shapes resonates with you in the way that it did for us.

Really pleased with Shapes Day Nursery, Reigate. My little boy has been going there since he was 10 months old. The staff members in the baby room genuinely care about the children and they get such a lot of close attention and care. My little boy is hard work but it's wonderful being able to go to work knowing that he is being so well looked after.

Shapes is a friendly, happy, relaxed nursery. Both my girls love going there. The staff genuinely care about the children and nothing is too much trouble. I highly recommend Shapes Nursery.

Our daughter has been attending for the past year and a half. The building in Reigate used to be a church and the open space for the older toddlers and the separate rooms for very young and baby children are just perfect. Our daughter enjoys her three days a week and has friends who she sees at weekends too. The staff are friendly, everyone always says hello in the morning and goodbye in the evening. The food is good and the menu is varied. They have helped us with potty training and the like. They are good at teaching table manners and please and thank-you. There are nature tables and a good outdoor area where the children go whenever it is dry. Our daughter has made good progress with social skills, her alphabet and counting. The leadership is stable and the nursery seems well led. They have expanded from one to two and now a third site is opening. Nursery assistants from the main branch have gone to be managers at the new sites so culture and processes are the same, we imagine.

Shapes is a very professionally run, yet friendly bespoke and caring nursery. The building, facilities, environment and staff are all first class, from day one we felt at ease leaving our children in extremely capable hands. The fact that Shapes is not a chain and instead more of a labour of love makes it so unique and special. The children have a wonderful experience each and every day thanks to the wonderful staff who aid their enjoyment, growth and development. It's really fantastic. Many thanks.
