Overall, great nursery with some very lovely members of staff. The service is wonderful too and my child always comes back happy. The only gripe I have is that the fees are always increasing at the most inconvenient time. With parents finally benefitting from free hours, by the time you then factor in the consumable prices and increase you don't actually save much. It's already hard on parents but I feel that the moment we get any relief it's taken away. I don't know how much influence the nursery has on these things but it's obviously something that is disheartening. Even if we could send our children with a packed lunch this would help massively but that's not even an option so £6 a day for consumables and the price increase hurts the pockets.

Staff are fantastic! Always professional with a positive attitude. Little one has come on leaps and bounds since being in the mini moons room. Our child looks forward to going to nursery and is always full of stories about what they've done. The menu is refreshed regularly and has a wide range of options for children. So glad we chose this nursery.

Great nursery! Staff will always put your mind at ease and follow a child-first policy. As a first-time parent, Banana Moon Day Nursery staff have always responded well to any concerns and worked with me to ensure that my child gets the best out of nursery.

My son has been at Banana Moon Day Nursery Ashmore for nearly three years and I have been so pleased with the care given and his progress throughout his time there. He has formed great relationships with the other children and the staff and regularly tells us how much he enjoys his time there. I am very pleased with the activities he does and the way learning is embedded within those activities. The staff and management are great and have made us and my son feel very welcome from day one.

My daughter has been with Banana Moon Day Nursery since she was 4 months old, the staff have always been so lovely and welcoming, I've never had a problem with my daughter going in which shows how comfortable she feels there. I can put my full trust in all the staff and my daughter thoroughly enjoys her time there, I couldn't recommend the nursery enough!

I cannot express how grateful I am to have found this nursery for my child! From the moment we stepped through the doors, it felt like a warm and welcoming environment. The staff are incredibly caring, professional and attentive, making it clear that they genuinely love working with children.

Just brilliant. The staff are very Kind, caring and supportive who go above and beyond. Both of my children have loved/love it there. My son is currently there and goes in smiling and comes out smiling. He loves his time at nursery.

All staff are friendly and observant to the children needs and development. They are very supportive and create a very welcoming and playful atmosphere for the children. Overall, I will recommend Banana Moon Day Nursery Ashmore for friends and family.

I have my 1 year old here. So far, our experience has been really good. Staff have given medications as requested and they give useful handovers at the end of each day. Also, at parents' meeting, we were given important updates and developmental aspects that are being worked on.

Amazing staff. Welcoming, friendly. They know exactly how to look after my 11 month old and they always treat him with such love and care. So much so, a few months into his nursery time and he has built strong and secure connections with every single member of staff. Every staff member puts their efforts into him, even if he is not in their group. My child absolutely adores coming to nursery. His play and development opportunities are unique and endless. The staff are always thinking outside the box for new opportunities for the children in their care. We haven't had one single issue since he started. Right from our first walk around to daily handovers, the nursery staff are stupendously professional and I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

Staff are always very caring and attentive. Both my child are always happy to go in and happy when I collect them. Seeing how all the children are greeted at the door fills me with confidence seeing that the staff are so thoughtful and try their best to connect with them all. The staff know both my children's personalities and are always very talkative when it comes to interaction with myself, makes me feel comfortable when talking about any small issues.

Our daughter has attended for over a year. We enrolled her earlier than planned as we were concerned with her development; particularly socially. This has been the best decision we have ever made. The staff have all been absolutely amazing in supporting her (and us) throughout and the positive change in her is unbelievable. They were also very supportive throughout her transition between rooms. She comes home so excited to tell us all about the wonderful things she has done during the day. We love getting detailed updates and pictures through the app. The staff have always been so helpful and you can see that they genuinely care about our daughter and all of the children. This is our second child that has attended and we can't wait for our little boy to join when he is old enough. I have and will always recommend this nursery and can not thank them enough for the positive impact they have had on both of our daughters lives and development.

As a family we want to give our daughter the best life and this would not be possible without Banana Moon Ashmore allowing us to both work full time. It feels like they all, especially four members of staff in particular, have become our extended family. The way they look after our daughter, keep her safe, teach her new things and generally show her love is a testament to you all and what amazing people you are. Two members of staff are constantly spoken about in our house, in the morning our daughter gets excited when I say 'you're going to play with them' today and you can see how much she loves you them both. We appreciate everything they do for our daughter and teaching her new things, she surprises us everyday and that's down to people at Banana Moon Ashmore and the support they give us, as parents, is incredible. We don't have much family support so all those advice, the chats of a morning and pick ups are always appreciated and it's lovely they all do it with such smiles on your faces. They are amazing!

The transition from toddlers to preschool for my daughter was amazing. The settling-in sessions into pre-school helped a lot but the excitement at the end of the day said it all. I was apprehensive with dropping nap time but the staff were confident and gave my daughter the choice of whether she wants to nap or not, as well as closely monitoring her. The transition to pre-school has gone so well that my daughter comes home looking forward to the next day. The nursery is diverse and celebrates it by talking about different cultural festivities. The days of dressing up and wearing the same colours to represent the day make it exciting. The staff show interest in what children are into and go the extra mile, i.e. having a butterfly kit. Watching the butterflies evolve from eggs is a great way of learning than just reading books and watching videos. The lifecycle of a butterfly is fun education to early years.

It was a big step for me to put my babies into a nursery so young and I have had a lot of worries with my babies being premature and so small and vulnerable to infections. My babies have come such a long way since joining Banana Moon Day Nursery in January. It’s lovely to see that the twins are not mixed up and treated as individuals, not as one. They both have their own key workers which I feel is good however all the nursery staff know them both well. I would like to say a massive thank you to the mini moons room leader for dealing with all my queries and finding resolutions and a big thank you to the manager who I feel has helped massively. I struggle with anxiety and knowing that the manager is there does put my mind at ease as she was there also when my oldest child went six years ago. Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic nursery, my little boy has come on leaps and bounds since joining in January 2023. He has additional learning needs and all the girls see to his needs so well. I can’t thank them enough.
03 May 2024
Great staff and great relationships with children. Would recommend. My daughter loves it there, been there since she was 6 months old and is now 2 1/2. Wouldn’t want her anywhere else. My son will be attending in October too!

Absolutely delighted with the service we have been receiving since joining in 2022. Lovely multicultural environment, with great staff and amazing healthy meals. My daughter is very well looked after and has formed amazing bonds with staff and other children.

Overall the nursery experience has been very good for our kids. One graduated and now in Year One still speaks highly of his time at Banana Moon. Our youngest is still at the nursery and whilst he isn't the biggest morning person around he always comes out with a smile on his face. Speech and understanding has been enhancing very well, and areas we wouldn't expect him to communicate on they have both done it quickly. The only negative we've experienced in recent times is the collection process. There have been occasions were you can be waiting 5-10 minutes to have your child get ready or have them appear. It does feel like this process needs to be revisited and streamlined to allow a swifter collection process. Appreciate the old route of fingerprinting and coming in may not be viable anymore but often we collect and there are long queues in a dark area with little shelter from the weather. Not great in the winter months. The flipside, the drop-off is always very quick and easy. Thanks, everyone!
