My eldest goes to this preschool/nursery and it was the best decision we made. We have never questioned anything. The people, care, encouragement, facilities and the location is perfect. We have always felt so confident in our choice to send our daughter there and excited for our youngest to start soon. They are just fantastic!

Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Astwick is a great nursery. My little one loves going there and enjoys their time there each day. The staff are friendly, caring, attentive and enthusiastic, which are great qualities to have, especially looking after such young children. The activities which are done daily are all aimed at helping the child to develop and explore and I have seen a great improvement in the development of my child, which is heartwarming to see. Great location too.

Monkey Puzzle Astwick is a wonderful setting and we've had nothing but good experiences sending our child here. The staff are caring, attentive, fabulous people. Our little one is always excited to go in to see her friends and tells us all about the adventures she's had. They've been excellent in supporting development in all areas and are willing to work with you if there's anything specific your child needs help with. Highly recommended.

Both my daughters have been through Monkey Puzzle. The manager and her team are professional, caring and supportive of all the children. I have always felt at ease leaving my children in their safe hands. Both my girls have loved attending this setting. We particularly love the farm location and the children spend a lot of time out of doors enjoying the fresh air and exploring!

My 1-year-old started at Monkey Puzzle just over a month ago and I’ve been really happy with the nursery - the staff are caring, responsive and communication has been great. Although my son took a bit of time to settle, he’s really enjoying nursery and comes home really happy after each day, babbling away and full of smiles. I love the setting and the effort the staff put into lovely-themed tuff trays and activities for the children each day. I’m only a month in as a first-time mum, but I’d really recommend Monkey Puzzle Astwick from my experience to date.

I couldn’t be happier having chosen Monkey Puzzle Astwick for my son. He has grown in confidence and ability with each day and formed really strong bonds with all the staff he interacts with. So much so, that he is the one rushing us out the door each morning, he is just that excited to go each day. The communication from the nursery team has always been fantastic, and the app makes it so easy to stay up to date with his activities each day. Getting the snapshot report at the end of each day, seeing what he did and seeing him interacting with others has become the highlight of our day and it wouldn’t be possible without the great work at Monkey Puzzle Astwick each and every day.

Our daughter loves coming into nursery three days a week. The children experience such a wide range of activities, and she especially loves their signing classes and going for walks! Communication is excellent and it's lovely to have updates each day with photos.

Brilliant nursery and staff. My daughter has settled very well and has developed so much since starting age 1 a few months ago! The staff are all lovely and share regular updates on what my daughter is up to and how she is progressing. Would highly recommend it!

Our daughter has been at Monkey Puzzle for over a month. We cannot fault the care that she has been given by the staff. They have helped her to settle in and have been excellent in responding to any questions we have had. She is always happy when we drop her off and pick her up. The staff have been superb in catering to her dietary needs. We have always felt confident that she is being given the very best care and is in an enriching environment.

I’ve been lucky enough to have both of my children be part of Monkey Puzzle. They are very professional, caring and nurturing. They provide my children with varied opportunities to learn that are fun and inclusive.

Absolutely hands down the best choice we made for our daughter. She started at 10 months old and has thrived at Monkey Puzzle. The staff are amazing and really take the time to ensure they meet your child's individual needs. The updates throughout the day, milestones they've met and new experiences are without a doubt the best. They are a family and I couldn't ask for a safer place for our daughter.

Our little boy has been attending Monkey Puzzle Astwick since he was 8 months old and he is now 3. We could not have found a better setting for him. He settled straight away and loves attending his 4 days per week. The girls make every day exciting and our child has progressed so much, they make learning fun and engaging and we have seen him come on leaps and bounds. He loves to play games and go for their daily walks to see the animals in the field close by and he has just started French and PE lessons as part of pre-school. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff at Monkey Puzzle Astwick they are so accommodating and passionate about their work. We are so pleased with this setting that we have already pre-booked a space for our unborn baby. I highly recommend Monkey Puzzle Astwick to anyone looking for a nursery setting it is such an amazing place.

Our eldest son has been at Monkey Puzzle for a year now and our youngest is just starting there. We’re so happy with the nursery. The setting is perfect and allows for lots of walks and outdoor activities in the fields nearby. The staff and brilliant, has great communication both face-to-face and through the app and are really supportive of things like potty training. There is always a variety of activities each day for the children and we’ve really enjoyed seeing our little boy's confidence and independence grow. We have no doubt our youngest will settle in just as well with the help of the amazing staff.

Our son has settled in so quickly to the nursery, the staff have been really kind and nurturing towards him. The location of the nursery is perfect on a farm, we couldn’t be more happy. The communication between the staff and parents is great and we feel so reassured he is cared for brilliantly.

This nursery is just wonderful. They provide such an amazing environment where my daughter is thriving. She has settled in like she has always been there and comes out smiling. My son went to this nursery from 2 until school age and they set him up perfectly for school life and confidence in life. The staff here and friendly, efficient and child-focused.

Monkey Puzzle Astwick has been amazing for my almost 4-year-old son (who started at 9 months). He really struggled to settle being left but the staff were amazing, they were very patient with him but also communicated well with us to discuss what we could do to help. He now loves going to nursery and runs to the gate each morning. He loves the long walks and fun games around the farm, enjoys playing in the garden with the cars, scooters etc, and has great fun with all the indoor organised activities. He has become so independent and amazes us daily with the things he is learning. My 11-month-old started 2 months ago and absolutely loves it. In all the photo updates we receive she is grinning away and loving getting messy in the tuff tray activities. We are so happy with Monkey Puzzle Astwick, from the setting to the lovely staff and fabulous communication from management. We would highly recommend it.

Watching our daughter's confidence grow as she explores her surroundings after attending Monkey Puzzle has been amazing. The ladies are so friendly and hands-on with the kids, we're so lucky to have found a nursery that has been so attentive to our little one.

My daughter loves it at this nursery, she is always raring to go in. She's been attending since she was 1 and she's now 2.5 and still loves it. She talks about the staff as if they are friends and has a good social experience with the other children. The staff are always friendly, it must be an incredibly tough job but they are always enthusiastic about the kids. They use a great app to keep us all up to date with what's going on and how the children are doing, with daily photo updates and focus weeks for your child. They regularly do forest walks and spend time with the animals on the farm. The setting is lovely and the staff are amazing.

We are so pleased we chose Monkey Puzzle Astwick for our son. I went back to work when he was ten months old, and he hadn’t really spent very much time away from me, so I was obviously apprehensive about how he would settle. However, right from his very first settling sessions, he responded so well to the staff, which is a testament to the warmth and positivity that they project. He had a few wobbles during his first few weeks, as expected, but the staff kept us up to date at all times and offered comfort and support as needed. It’s now been two months, and he is so excited every morning when we get his bag ready, and he practically jumps out of our arms when we arrive in the morning. All of the activities are so stimulating for him, and I love seeing the photos posted every day to see what he’s been up to. He eats such a wide variety of nourishing and healthy foods every day, and it’s really made him more adventurous with food at home as well. I would recommend this nursery to anyone!

Monkey Puzzle Astwick is a wonderful environment with happy and friendly staff who I'm happy for my son to spend 5 days a week with. I'm happy they're encouraging to develop, learn and behave in the right way while ensuring a fun environment.
