Nurture And Grow

Amazing nursery

Both my children (age 1 & 3) have been at the nursery since April, and we have always been very happy with the care and support provided. Both my children have formed strong bonds with the practitioners, and my 1 year old gets excited every time we arrive at nursery. My 3 year old has always struggled separating from me on arrival at nurseries, but the staff here are very comforting and supportive of this. They have also identified and acted quickly with regards to sensory issues my 3 year old has.

It’s a really lovely, small, home from home like nursery, and everyone is very welcoming and accommodating.

Would highly recommend the nursery.

Couldn't recommend more!

I absolutely LOVE this nursery!
As someone who works in the industry (with a different company) it was a big decision to not send my child to the company I work for and reap the employee benefits, however I'm so grateful I went with my gut and what I thought was best for my child.

N&G have seen my child through most of her first year of life now and have had such a huge positive impact. They're supportive to me and my partner as first time parents, guide my daughter in every area and are just overwhelmingly a lovely bunch of practitioners.

The immediate excitement on my daughters face when I drop her off to nursery says it all - basically leaping from my arms to start her day! The on site chef has been very understanding of our dietary needs and goes out of his way to prepare alternative dish options for my child made to suit her needs specifically! The practitioners have helped support us in areas of her sleep, eating and "kind hands".

They are so attentive as a whole, we get picture updates at a minimum twice a week with live updates of her day every day, the instant chat function to the nursery on their app means I can always check in, ask questions or advice.

Bottom line - incredible nursery, supportive to parents and children alike, would recommend to anyone looking for a nursery.

We’re so grateful for your recommendation and your continued trust in us – it’s a joy to be part of your little one’s journey.

Wonderful Nursery

We honestly couldn’t be happier with Nurture and Grow Childcare. Our little one has been here for two years, and it has been such a wonderful place for them to learn, grow, and feel supported every single day.

The environment is so warm and welcoming, it's of work was done earlier in the year to update the space and the garden and you can tell how much thought and care goes into making it a safe, happy space for the children. The food provided is fantastic too, healthy, varied, and something our child always looks forward to. Special mention to Cheff Charlie who does an amazing job!

What really makes the nursery so special are the relationships. Our child absolutely loves the practitioners and has built such lovely bonds with them. Helen feels like part of the family, she knows our child so well, and the support and care she gives is beyond anything we could have hoped for.

We’ve also seen how much our child has developed with their guidance. Their confidence, independence, and learning have all flourished thanks to the encouragement and dedication of the staff.

We are so grateful to the whole team at Nurture and Grow — it really is a place where children can thrive.

Just like home

My son went to the nursery for a full year. He enjoyed spending time with Carmon and Ellie from the nursery more than my wife and I. They looked after time just like their own child and identified his SLT requirements and helped us all the way through to his transition to school. He was very sad to graduate and i would 100% recommend this place.

Thank you so much for your kind words! 💛

We’re thrilled to hear that your son felt so happy and supported during his time with us. The team put so much care into helping each child feel valued and understood, and we’re delighted that their support, especially with his SLT needs and school transition, made such a positive difference.

It’s always a little bittersweet when children “graduate,” but knowing they leave with confidence and happy memories is exactly why we do what we do. Thank you for trusting us and for recommending Nurture and Grow - it means so much to our team!

AVOID AVOID AVOID

I would not recommend this nursery based on my personal experience. After raising a safeguarding concern, I felt that the matter was not handled appropriately, and the responsibility was redirected towards me as a parent rather than addressing the issue in my child’s best interests. My daughter was significantly affected by the incident, yet the directors appeared more focused on protecting the nursery’s position than on her wellbeing.

Additionally, there is a charge applied that, according to Ofsted, is not mandatory, which has made invoices higher than expected.
