I think we looked at almost every option of childcare in the local area, and with Peaches & Pears it just clicked straightaway. Our son has now been attending for the last 2.5 years and he loves it. He’s made good friends and it’s become a home-from-home for him. You can tell its family run, so much care goes into every aspect of the setting which makes it comfortable and welcoming which is so important for little ones’ development. We’ve had lovely moments where he surprises us with things he’s learnt, be it counting on his own or making an omelette without any shell in! Peaches & Pears have been very supportive of every developmental stage; whether the emotional phases, or practical parts like potty training, they’re always on side and happy to help. They are also very flexible which is hugely important to us, especially during lockdowns where we felt it important that our child had as much normality as possible. We feel very fortunate that they’ve been such an important part of our son’s growing up and recommend them very highly.

My son has been at P&P since he was 14 months old. The settling in process was tailored to him and sensitive to his needs as well as the parents. I've always felt happy dropping him off, knowing he was safe and well cared for. The family care deeply for all the children and foster strong caring values and manners in the children. The menu is varied and I am relived knowing he is eating healthily while he is there and I don't feel so guilty when he has less good food at home!
I'm really glad we chose P&P for our son and would recommend it to anyone.

My partner and I are so grateful to have found Peaches and Pears. Our son has been there for 2 years so far. He loves it there. He settled in very quickly and has formed close bonds with all P&P carers as well as the other children. He is excited to go in the mornings and comes home happy and tired (in a good way!) from a great day.
Peaches and Pears is a well-run family business. They follow a ‘Curiosity Approach,’ providing open-ended objects and toys and letting children's’ imaginations decide how to interact with them. They supplement this with stimulating and varied activities for the children, keeping things fresh and mixing indoor and outdoor play, as well as trips outside the grounds to local playgrounds, walks, stay and plays etc.
The team are warm and caring, and their enthusiasm for their work shines through everyday. They have created a homely and social environment for the children, and each carer gets to know every child as an individual, adjusting their approach to each little person’s needs. They are helpful and supportive to us as parents. They are parent-led, while offering great advice, inspiration and ideas when needed – always respectfully and never out of turn.
As a business, they handled the COVID-19 situation very well, adjusting routines as necessary. They took advantage of lockdown to revamp the covered back yard and garden, creating an amazing play space. Our son particularly loves the mud kitchen!
All in all, we highly recommend Peaches and Pears to local families looking for a safe, caring and stimulating environment for their children to thrive in.

Our daughter attended Peaches and Pears for just over a year and I cannot fault the care she received. The environment is like a home from home, and she loved attending. She settled in quickly, she spoke about her friends, she learnt things, she was happy. All of the team are kind and caring, and we are extremely grateful for the love they showed to our whole family.

Our daughter has been attending P&P since she was 10months old. She has loved the 2 year experience bonding quickly with the whole family, to the point that we were unsure who her key worker was initially as she was reciting all their names at home!
The environment was perfect for her transitioning into care from being at home with just myself on maternity leave. The family run a thoughtful and interesting schedule of activities for the children, often taking them for external activities both locally and afar.
The communication is particularly good with an online diary sent to parents and also a log book when the children are younger. This was perfect for us so we could see and keep up with all her development.
She really has had the best time and we have loved seeing her grown during her time at P&P.
