I have been sending my daughter to the babyroom since she was 11 months old and I am so happy with our experience in Sunnyhill Nursery. The staff in the babyroom are amazing human beings. They take excellent care of my baby. All of them have lot of compassion, kindness, and sincerity of love for children. My daughter learned a lot after going to the babyroom. She comes back home learning new words, rhymes and etiquette. Sunnyhill was the best option and decision we took for her.

We started our little one in nursery not long ago and choosing Sunnyhill Day Nursery was the best choice we made! Everyone has been so welcoming and kind. We're always kept updated with what our baby is doing and we know that they are in the best hands.

I am thrilled to share my experience with the nursery my daughter attends. As a parent, finding a nurturing environment for my child has always been a top priority, and this nursery has exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment we walked in, it was clear that professionalism is a core value here. The staff is not only well-trained but also incredibly friendly and approachable, creating a welcoming atmosphere that immediately put my daughter at ease. Their high-quality standards are evident in every aspect of the nursery, from the educational activities to the safety measures they have in place. The cleanliness and tidiness of the facility are truly commendable. It's reassuring to know that my child is in a hygienic space where every toy and surface is regularly sanitized. This attention to detail reflects their commitment to the health and well-being of the children. Overall, I recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, educational, and loving environment.

Staff are so accommodating, and very professional with their jobs. There are nursery's within our place of work but me and my husband let our child stay with them because we witnessed good changes with our son. And we are happy with safety of the facility for kids too. Please keep up the good work.

My son has been attending Sunnyhill since he turned 2, he will be 3 in February 2025 and so far we have had no problems. He absolutely loves going every week, and the staff are all wonderful with the children, I can leave my son and be comforted knowing he's in the best care.

Sunnyhill Nursery has been so brilliant! My youngest daughter had a hip operation and has been in a spica cast for the last 10 weeks. As a mother, this journey has been so hard but the nursery has been so supportive and really helped me through this. They have gone over and beyond to make sure she is settled. I am pleased to say she is doing great in her confidence and physical development, after such a major operation. It just shows how adaptive the nursery has been and she has made some fabulous relationships with the staff. I would like to thank them all, especially two members of staff in particular!

My little one (now 17 months) has been attending Sunnyhill Day Nursery since May. I put off starting her at nursery because like any mum I was worried I was leaving her too soon, but it's really been the best thing for her. Since starting at Sunnyhill her confidence and speech have come on in leaps and bounds. She's excited to go in the morning and names members of staff she's excited to see. The nursery has an app that updates me with what she's eaten, slept, nappy changes and photos and comments of activities she's taken part in. The nursery does focus weeks where anything my little one is interested in or starting to learn, they will focus on these areas. The way she has been interacting with other children and developing week by week is just amazing to see. A lot of it is down to the input from the nursery for sure.

I'm really pleased with Sunnyhill Day Nursery. The staff are warm, attentive, and truly care about each child's development. My child loves the engaging, educational activities, from crafts to outdoor play. The environment is bright, clean, and stimulating, creating a space where my child feels safe and eager to explore. The transition from baby space to a more toddler-friendly environment has also been handled very well with plenty of things to do when my child needs more exciting and interactive things that he is a bit older. I would highly recommend Sunnyhill for its nurturing atmosphere and lovely staff!

This is a great nursery, they are always attending to the needs of each child and are very passionate about their development. Always looking at new ways to create fun learning activities for the children. I would recommend this nursery to all, they have great staff who are very approachable and helpful.

My son has settled in really well at nursery. He started in April and was shy and clingy towards me at drop-off only. His confidence has really come along and shows with his extensive vocabulary. The staff and management have done a really good job and I can see a big difference in his learning over the last few months. He loves going in and runs in. Also, he has made lots of friends with the other children and staff as well. The key worker and other staff make sure I am up to date with his progress and the focus weeks on my son are a hit as the staff get to know his likes etc and ask for pictures. Then they plan activities according to his interests. I like the fact that the nursery sends regular updates with pictures of my son playing. My son eats well at nursery and has learnt how to eat by himself which he did not do before he started. The app the nursery staff use is good as I can see what my child has eaten, application of sun cream, nappy change etc. The nursery is fab.

Before starting nursery my son had difficulty communicating. Since being at nursery he has come a long way, he is talking and communicating with more and more words every day, he even has friends that he plays along with. The staff are amazing and have helped us along the way. We personally couldn't recommend Sunnyhill Day Nursery enough. The meals are brilliant such a healthy choice. So once again great job to the team.

So, we were looking for a nursery for our son to go to as my husband just started full time employment from being self-employed and I am currently off work and undergoing a series of surgeries. We initially were directed to the branch closest to our home address but they had no availability but luckily for us Sunnyhill Day Nursery did. From day one all staff were so welcoming to my husband as I was in hospital at the time and he had to arrange for our son to start and settled in without my help; again the staff were all on hand to make sure our son (who has extra needs) was well cared for. When we first started they asked what was one of the things we would most want to see our son achieve by the end of this year; as he is nonverbal we said, we would like him to be able to talk. Not a chatter box but just say words and I can proudly say thanks to the amazing staff here he can now speak. I wish I could name them in my review as they all deserve that recognition. Thank you so much.

My girl settled in this nursery very fast. The teachers looked after my child very well. They do a variety of activities and my daughter always talks about that, and she is happy to come to nursery now. The teachers are approachable, caring and welcoming. Thank you so much for taking care of her.

Brilliant nursery! Our son joined in January. Although anxious at first, we are so pleased with how well he has settled in here. The management team have been very supportive throughout the process. We are impressed by the passion and commitment the staff demonstrate, they care about supporting our child's individual needs and his development, which has helped build his confidence and bond. The staff communicate with us about our child's progress daily, giving us the confidence to know he is well cared for and is safe. The variety of activities available keeps our child focused and engaged. We are delighted to be a part of the Sunnyhill Day Nursery family and would recommend it.

My child started at Sunnyhill Day Nursery this year and has settled straight away we were very anxious as to how he would settle but the staff have been fantastic. They share all things with us and they communicate all the things they will be doing via the app they use. We can’t thank the nursery team enough and are so grateful we found such a nice caring environment for our child to go to.

Excellent nursery! The staff are wonderful and very attentive and go above and beyond for my son, my son has dietary requirements that the nursery has met without questions and even purchased things specifically for him. The staff do a wonderful job and really are committed to offering the best service and care.

The whole process from the first phone call, show round, settling in sessions and subsequent sessions have been outstanding. The manager, deputy manager and key workers are all so helpful and accommodating and nothing is too much trouble. They have explained the nursery set-up and procedures really well and put me and my child at ease instantly. I was able to take my child to the first settling-in session and I was able to meet his key worker and we filled in a sheet with information all about my child and things they like and dislike. Whilst this was happening my child was able to play and interact with the other children and key workers and thoroughly enjoyed it. The nursery uses an App which is new to us but is absolutely brilliant. We have had updates about what has been eaten for breakfast/snack/dinner and how much has been eaten. They have written out detailed observations and added photos showing what my child has been doing during the day. This has opened up lots of discussion. Thank you.
