We have been so happy with our daughter's experience at Pilrig Children's nursery. It's such a warm and welcoming environment, and all the staff are really friendly and knowledgeable. We can always stay up-to-date with our child's activities throughout the day, and feel completely confident she's being looked after really well.

I am very happy with all aspects of the nursery and feel confident leaving my daughter in your care. The only drawback is the lack of one-on-one activities with specific learning goals. Specifically, I would have liked seeing what she's learning with pictures in the journal and receiving themed crafts she has made, even if it's only scribbles. This helps me further develop the theme at home in other languages. So far, I am unaware of any learning themes. Not counting Christmas/Chinese New Year as these don't account forthe majority of her time spent with you.

We really enjoy Pilrig Children's Nursery. Our son is enjoying his meals there which is a big deal for us because he's always been on the smaller side. He has really bonded with the care staff and they take really good care of him as he has separation anxiety in the mornings. They're also very good at implementing changes in his care plan. I like that they include parents in special celebrations and that we know a bit about his day via the app.

My son is very happy at Pilrig Children's Nursery. He is currently in the toddler room. I feel the level of care is satisfactory as the staff turnover is quite high and this can be unsettling at times. Other than this I feel the children are happy and are presented with age-appropriate activities.

Brilliant nursery, both my children have been really happy here. The staff are all warm and caring. The facilities are great, especially the garden which is large, enclosed and has lots of resources. The food options are healthy and varied, the chef is a real asset.

Pilrig is a wonderful nursery where my daughter is very happy. The staff are lovely doing a wide range of activities with the children from singing to crafts to trips to the park and fire station museum. The home-cooked food is also really great and I love to know my daughter eats a healthy variety.

This is our second child to attend Pilrig Nursery, the staff truly make this an amazing place! The children have fun-packed days with the social and educational skills to start school with confidence!

Both my children have attended Pilrig and the level of care they receive is excellent. They've both loved all their teachers, and the staff seem to genuinely show an interest in them and nurturing them and letting their characters shine. We always get a great rundown of their day, and even occasionally get to try the delicious homemade food prepared for the children! The outside area is brilliant and the kids are usually running around in the garden which is great for tiring them out! Cannot fault Pilrig, we'll be sad when my youngest has to leave for school.

My daughter attended from age 3 to 5 and has just finished up to start school. Pilrig Children's Nursery has provided such a safe, calm, nurturing environment for her, and the social skills and self-assurance she has gained from that experience are wonderful to see. The (pre-Covid) free-flow between the rooms so that kids of all ages could play together was really beneficial for all, and will hopefully return. The nursery's outdoor space is fantastic. I have recommended this nursery to friends already, and I thank the team there for helping to provide my daughter with the skills and confidence she needs now for starting school.

This was a great nursery. Our little one has just left to go to big school and they were great at preparing him for the move. His first nursery shut down during Covid and so the staff was great at handling the transition and integrating him with the room. We really saw his confidence grow through this nursery.

Pilrig Children's Nursery is a lovely nursery. My son had been going for over 3 years and has loved his time there. The nursery has a nice feel with lots of natural light and a great outdoor space. The children spend a lot of time outside even if the weather isn’t great. For the older children, there seems to be a good mix of structured activities/educational discussion and free flow play. Staff are friendly and give a good handover at the end of the day.
