My daughter loves this nursery,so do I. Great team and management, always flexible, always happy to help. My daughter was non english speaking child when she started nursery,the team done everything to help her with english language. I will not count how many trips she is had from the nursery including colchester zoo, stick man trail etc. She can not wait to start her forest school. She loves phonics lessons and jo jingles weekly visits. Children spend lots of time outside which she loves. There is no better place to start your child journey then yumbo.
My little boy has been at Yumbo's for 6 months, since he turned 2. He has really grown in confidence since starting and loves all the Yumbo ladies. They're all so kind, thoughtful and caring and I really feel like they genuinely enjoy looking after my son. He has been on loads of trips including the zoo, walks to the park, Tiptree Jam Factory and more, and they send lots of pictures of him doing all sorts of activities in the nursery. They also spend a lot of time in the garden. They celebrate a huge range of holidays with fun and imaginative activities and I've received some lovely homemade gifts. They've also been helping him to work towards his milestones and have been honest about what he needs more support with at home. So they might not have a big shiny building, brand new toys or gourmet catering but children don't need that - they need care, support and fun - which this nursery has oodles of! And it's great value for money too!
We moved back from London and I needed to find a nursery for my little girl, I come across Yumbo and my little girl joined in from the start! She has progressed so quick, all thanks to the caring, understanding and reassuring staff. I'm so pleased I found these guys. My little girl is definitely very happy there too! ☺️
From our first play and stay session where I had to carry my son out over my shoulder, My boy loves being here every session he walks in and dose not look back. it’s a small Nursary with a big heart all the Teachers are fantastic and have done an amazing job over the Pandemic keeping the place COVID-19 Secure and keeping our little ones safe. If your looking for a comfortable environment for your little ones to grow and learn through play and encouragement this really is the place.
Great nursery, easy to talk to staff.
Kids have came so far since starting here!
Highly recommend..
