This is the first nursery my son has attended, and I couldn't be happier with our experience. The staff are warm, caring, and attentive, and my son seems comfortable with most, if not all, of his favorite teachers. Although it is a new nursery, the environment is well-equipped, clean, and nurturing, which gives me peace of mind. I am especially pleased that they cater to halal dietary requirements, ensuring my son's nutritional needs are met without any concerns. Communication is excellent-regular updates are provided, and the staff also share feedback verbally during pick-up, which I really appreciate. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the care and attention my child receives and would highly recommend this nursery to other parents.

My son has been attending Learn and Grow day nursery since Jan 2025 when he first started he would not settle at all crying non stop from when being dropped off to pick up, really bad tantrums, refusing to take his jacket off while screaming "MINE". The nursery set aside a key worker to help settle him in and he started making improvements daily you could see the difference a week in he no longer started to cry at drop off's, in the second week there was an improvements on the tantrums, listening and behaviour. Finally in the third week he took off his jacket as soon as he walked in no screaming or yelling this time lol. The settling in process is such a worry for parents so I just want to thank all the staff at Learn and Grow Day Nursery for the wonderful job they have done. Making the process so smooth always keeping us informed while helping him adapt to nursery life. All the staff are very caring and kind. I can't thank the team enough and really recommend this nursery.

My baby started at Learn and Grow in September 2024. She was so emotional at first to be somewhere new and had terrible separation anxiety, which of course made me feel like an emotional wreck as well! The manager and her team were amazing at comforting her and helping her to settle in, building her confidence (and mine!) whilst she got used to nursery life. The team are very kind and caring, and would take on board any suggestions I had to help her settle in. She now has a brilliant time there, loves playing with the other children and enjoys the meals provided as she usually eats well there. They often display the arts and crafts activities that the children have been working on in the reception area, which is always lovely to see! They use an app to provide updates on the children throughout the day (eg. what they have eaten, milk consumption, nappy changes etc). The updates have become more frequent recently, which is really helpful as it helps plan ahead for the evening.
