    My little boy loves Banana Moon nursery and literally runs in. Searching for a nursery during a pandemic was difficult but I felt comfortable sending him here and 6 months later can confirm it was a good choice. The staff have gone way beyond at times and I feel like they all really care about the child’s wellbeing and learning. He has tried some really good food and is learning so much. I love receiving the updates on the app and seeing that he is enjoying himself.

    We love it! Staff are amazing with my son and I love the Blossom app and that they all seem to care so much. I love the development stages and what they’re aiming for next as well as the activities they do. The only thing I could comment on for improvement is that there seems to be a high turnover of staff, it would be nice to have pictures and names of those who are in the baby room. Also if my son is sleeping during afternoon snack, he isn’t given the snack when he wakes up, why is this? We have a baby due in April and we will be putting her in Banana Moon when the time comes.

    Fantastic nursery with caring and very attentive staff. Good structure throughout the day for little ones. Lovely outside area for safe play and fun times!
    Never have a problem and my little one has been going since he was about 6 months and now he’s nearly three.

    My son has been attending since he was 4 months old. The Banana Moon app is fantastic and literally details his day for me to see. His key person updates the information and you can really see how well my son adores going to Banana Moon Day Nursery Billericay. He has loved it from day one of attending. It puts my mind at ease to be able to see how he is getting on each day via the app. I get detailed reports every term on how he is getting on.

    Both of my sons have attended Banana Moon and loved it. They love the staff, the activities and have made great friendships. My youngest is still there now and enjoys all the arts and crafts and outdoor play with his friends. I would highly recommend the nursery to others.

    Banana Moon Day Nursery Billericay is a wonderful nursery. The staff are beyond what any parent can wish for – caring, warm, friendly and so helpful – and the app with updates is brilliant. I have really valued the team on tough drop off days: they update the app within an hour of drop-off saying how my little one has settled and is now happily playing. I cannot sing the praises of the team enough. Thank you for all your hard work.

    Banana moon nursery has been remarkable for my son and I, the managers are caring and want the best for your children. They go to many lengths to give your child the best support, time and fun while at Banana Moon nursery they’re all lovely people who I’ve met.

    My son has only been at this nursery for 2 weeks so far, however, I’m so glad I picked this nursery. His key worker is amazing, she really eased my worries with her constant updates on the app while I was at work.
    I’m sure we will be at Banana Moon for many years.

    My daughter loves going to nursery she is always excited when we arrive. They do fantastic themed activities every week and the updates throughout the day on the app are lovely to see and check-in with. The staff are always friendly and polite and clearly engage my child well. She is always doing sensory play painting and outdoor play and there are always books available which is great as she loves to read.

    My little boy has been at Banana Moon since Sept this year and he has been having a fantastic experience ever since, he always comes out happy and smiling at the end of the day. Having the blossom app really helps as well, the girls are so good at updating it regularly so I am always in touch with what is happening as my little boy doesn’t talk. The girls here are fab I have only ever been greeted warmly by them and they all seem to have a lovely relationship with my boy. Banana Moon was recommended to us and it was the best recommendation. Thank you all.

    Banana Moon Day Nursery Billericay is a fantastic nursery. My child started in September 2022 and has settled in so well. The staff took a lot of time to get to know her and us as a family. She has developed so quickly since beginning nursery and each week I can see that she has developed a new skill or learnt something new. The staff are amazing. We couldn’t be happier with our experience so far!

    We have been so pleased with our experience of Banana Moon nursery. Our son settled in so quickly, within days of starting, and I truly believe that was down to the effort of the staff to make a connection with him and get to know him. His key worker is fantastic and knows him very well, which we can tell from the updates she gives us when we see her at pick-up time. He always looks forward to seeing her each day. He is now in the toddler room and coming on leaps and bounds. The nursery always puts on lots of different activities for the children which we love seeing on the nursery app each day.
    The food they provide is like a gastro pub! Lots of different meals on their menu for the children to enjoy. Our second son is due to start at Banana Moon next year, and we would (and have) recommend this nursery.

    Our experience of Banana Moon Billericay has been great from the beginning.
    My son started during the Covid year of 2020, and it has helped him so much. All the staff are super friendly, supportive and caring. My son has thrived at nursery, which has led to our daughter joining him in 2022.
    We cannot recommend Banana Moon more; it’s fantastic.

    A very good nursery, my son loves attending and the staff are all very helpful and lovely. The food is great and the children are offered extras if they want it. There is an outside area that the children really enjoy and get to explore more toys and activities. They have an app where you can see what they get up to through out the day, including how much food they eat, nappy changes, bottle feeds and activities along with pictures.

    The staff make this nursery exceptional. Super friendly and approachable and the nursery always is up to date with improvements for the parent experience. The app works well, seeing pictures and getting information throughout the day is reassuring. The food and outdoor space are what sold it for me initially and I’ve been impressed with the activities and feedback plans since joining last year. The new remote doorbell is a win-win too! My son runs in with a smile on his face – what more could a parent want?

    My husband and I are so happy we sent our little girl to Banana Moon. The staff are amazing – so warm, upbeat and caring. The activities are great, different every day. The food is amazing and we really like the updates and photos on the app. Banana Moon has done so much to help our little one make progress and she goes in with a smile every day!

    I have been really happy with all the staff at Banana Moon. I was a very nervous first-time mum putting my 11-month-old into childcare but the staff that have taken care of my son have been fantastic. He has clearly made some lovely bonds, talking about them at home has just filled me with all the reassurance and happiness I need.

    All the staff are lovely at the nursery. My child looks forward to seeing them and always gives a high five when I pick him up. My child enjoys his playtime and the food given. The app is fantastic, it’s good to know what he is doing on a daily basis.
