Just Imagine Colchester Day Nursery

Honestly can’t recommend this nursery enough. My little boy has autism and sensory needs and the nursery have been so supportive not just to my son but for me too. The girls are so lovely and so hardworking and so understanding, the nursery is clean, homely welcoming place with so much stuff for the children to do such a great nursery that I would recommend 100% all day every day! My little boy as come along way since starting this nursery and couldn’t thank the girls enough!

My child has been attending this nursery since she was crawling and is now two and a half. The staff are fantastic and always go the extra mile. The facilities are perfect in both the baby and older downstairs room with a variety of different engaging activities and areas set up. It is a small nursery with a real homely feel, and my daughter always eats extra food too!

Wonderful home to home nursery, staff are brilliant, kind and caring. Everyone makes you feel very welcome and part of the family.
My daughter really struggled after being born in lockdown but now walks into the building waving and saying hello to everyone. She is very settled and enjoys the activities put in place for her development.
All information is provided, and if in need, the manager will always get back with anything further we need. We are very happy with her care and would highly recommend it to other parents looking for a child-led, safe, caring and fun environment for their child too.
Thank you, Just Imagine, you make a huge difference to my daughter’s learning every day she attends and continues to provide excellent childcare!

Choosing a nursery amongst an active pandemic was not easy, especially as a first time Mum, but the staff at Just Imagine made me feel so comfortable and allowed me to take the time in asking all the questions I needed, so I knew from the early stages it was going to be the right nursery for us. It was one of the few nurseries local to us as well that offered a large unoverlooked outside garden, which the team take full advantage of in all reasonable weather, meaning the kids get plenty of fresh air and exercise through play. My daughter also suffers from a milk allergy, which the team have all been so alert with. The policies and procedures they have in place put my daughter’s safety first but also ensures she isn’t separated when eating and isn’t made to feel excluded. But best of all, my daughter loves to go; she talks about her friends and her teachers all the time and has never been upset when I’ve dropped her at the door and is always smiling when I collect her to go home!

My son has been at the nursery since he was 10-months-old (he’s now 3-years-old), and I have never had any problems with the nursery or staff. The staff are so happy and welcoming. I always feel my son is happy and safe with them. Having seen the new changes to the nursery design, I am very grateful that my son goes there; it feels very homely and there are lots to do. The garden is amazing, so much for little ones to explore and learn. The sensory room is fantastic; I can understand why my son enjoys being in there. I always know my son is well cared for, and I couldn’t wish for a better place for him to be looked after and start his journey in his early year’s education. The team are just fantastic!

Just Imagine is the best nursery that I’ve come across.
My son is 16-months old and absolutely loves going to the nursery; he is so excited when I tell him in the morning that he’s going to nursery.
The changes they have made just recently are amazing; the garden has a lovely sized outside area where they’ve done it up with a mud kitchen, musical instruments, sand and water play as welll as a construction site for the children to build and explore.
My recent experience with parent’s meeting was lovely; it was the first time of being able to go in and look around properly since Covid-19 happened.
It was lovely to meet my son’s key person and see how he’s getting on; he’s developed so much physically and verbally.
She is such a lovely lady, she explained everything to me in much more detail than I even knew.
I’m so happy with the nursery as a whole and the other children and staff members that work there looking after our children.
Thank you for making childcare a breeze.

We are happy with the overall nursery performance. I am glad to see the development in my child with respect to her socialising skills and learning skills. I am happy to send my child every day to nursery now.
