Although I chose not to register with A Home to Grow, it was only due to the distance. We live about 12 miles away yet were tempted enough to visit anyway incase the journey was possible on a daily basis. Unfortunately, we found the traffic would be too much for the journey required, if we lived closer into London we would definitely register with this nursery.

It was the fantastic website which first drew us in. It is wonderfully animated and incredibly informative with examples of everything from catering menus to activities.

On our visit, the two childminders were professional and organized yet warm and approachable. No question was left unanswered or was too much. My wife who speaks little English was relieved with the patience and time she was offered for me to translate.

The nursery itself is a creative, inspiring playroom with a huge selection of toys and education materials. I was pleasantly surprised.

We were taken around the rest of the home which was cosy, clean and not at all cluttered as one would expect from a family home. There was many safety adaptions and my son seemed content to play with the building bricks given to him as we discussed the services available.

Both my wife and I agreed, it would be a lovely place to send our son to each morning but that the drive there and back would be too much each day.
If our situation changes we will be sure to let you guys know!
