November 2, 2015 at 12:00 amMy 16 month old son has been in the baby room for 2 months. He has settled really quickly and I have felt completely confident in the staff which has made my transition to work so much easier. The staff in the baby room are fantastic and already seem to know my son well. They have all worked there for a long time which is reassuring and staff turnover is very low. The baby room is small with a home from home feeling.
The staff arrange lots of activities like water play, arts and crafts, outdoor play and baking. They leave really sweet entries in his log book each week so I know what they’ve been up to. They communicate well with parents asking permission to go on outdoor trips and informing of any illness or accidents promptly.
I would definitely recommend to others and I’m sure I will send number 2 there eventually!

October 24, 2017 at 12:00 amBoth of our children have attended Platform One and were very happy (3 years and counting). The manager and her staff are brilliant and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Platform One to anyone.

October 24, 2017 at 12:00 amMy first born daughter attended this nursery and now my younger daughter has just started too. Lovely little nursery with good facilities and friendly staff. I feel more comfortable that it is not too big. Both my daughters love the nursery.

October 26, 2017 at 12:00 amPlatform One is a fantastic nursery. I have two children who attend (toddler and baby). The staff are incredibly caring, helpful, friendly, enthusiastic, energetic and the kids love them! There are two rooms, with a lovely outdoor play area for both age groups. The menu is impressive, with lots of variety. I really do recommend this nursery.

October 27, 2017 at 12:00 amI have had one or more children at Platform One since 2012 and have been consistently impressed with the love, nurture and care that the staff there have shown to my children. Being able to leave the children in an environment where they have felt safe, loved and happy has meant that I have been able to hop on the train to work without any hang-ups.
The management team are very responsive; I recently suggested that they consider a refresh of the ICT resources for the children and they quickly responded with new touchscreen tablets for use in supporting the children’s learning.
Highly recommended.

November 2, 2017 at 12:00 amMy son has been going to Platform One Nursery for a year now and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. The girls in the baby and toddler rooms are absolutely brilliant. They know and love my child and I can see that they respect his needs and likes and dislikes. Management and staff retention are excellent which means that the children do not see unfamiliar, agency staff every now and then. Children numbers are also relatively low which makes it a homey and warm environment for the little ones. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough!

November 9, 2017 at 12:00 amThe manager and her team have made the transition for my little ones first time in nursery, and my return to work, a great experience, and for that, I am very grateful. The nursery is like home from home and is always kept clean and tidy, with lots of bright visual displays and suitable toys for her to play with. You can see that her keyworkers really compliment each other and work very well together. They constantly keep my little one entertained with different educational activities throughout the day and keep me updated with what she has been up to. Overall we are both happy with our experience of the nursery so far. Thank you.

January 4, 2018 at 12:00 amWe highly recommend this nurturing, friendly and very welcoming nursery. My son has been going to Platform 1 for 2.5 years – from the age of 6 months – and has been looked after so well by the girls in the baby room and now the nursery room. He loves going in! All of the staff genuinely love the kids and make sure they have lots of interesting activities every day. We love receiving the Tapestry emails so we can see the pictures and videos from his days. The food is all freshly cooked on site and is varied, nutritious and encourages him to eat a varied diet. There is a very well-stocked and safe outside play area that is used as much as possible. He’s made some lovely friends, too. It’s great knowing your child is somewhere so lovely when you have to work.

October 8, 2018 at 12:00 amPlatform One is a nurturing, homely and friendly nursery. The staff are thorough and supportive of the children. My children enjoy attending and have developed strong trusting relationships with the staff.
The days seem well organised and structured, however, I would like to have seen a stronger focus on learning and milestones set for children depending on their capabilities, due to the small setting and focus on play children may outgrow it fairly quickly.

October 11, 2018 at 12:00 amPlatform One Nursery Ltd is a great environment for preschool children and babies. Both my sons attend Platform One Nursery Ltd and absolutely love their nursery. They often don’t want to go home which is a testament to the staff that work there. They are very well cared for and have developed so much since they started. I would definitely recommend Platform One Nursery Ltd to friends and family looking for a nursery.

October 15, 2018 at 12:00 amMy son went to this nursery full time from the age of 11 months until he started school this year. My daughter is 2 years old and has been attending full time from 10 months of age. All members of staff are genuinely kind and caring towards the children and ensure that children are made to feel safe and secure in a homely environment. Children are given nutritious meals every day which includes a hot meal at tea time as well as lunchtime. Parents are kept well informed of their child’s developments and daily sheets are handed to provide useful information e.g. how long a child has napped for, how much they ate, and a brief description of the activities they undertook. Emphasis is placed on teaching the children to be polite and caring towards others, encouraging them to be curious about the world. My son has benefitted enormously from this nursery and having spent 4 years at Platform One, he has thrived and settled easily into school life – all of this is down to Platform One!

February 10, 2021 at 12:00 amPlatform One is a wonderful nursery to send your little one to. My daughter has been there for 14-months now, and we love all aspects of it. The baby room is such a lovely place to start nursery life, with two brilliant staff members who are overly caring and loving and genuinely interested in all parts of the children’s wellbeing. My daughter has recently moved into the toddler room, and it’s equally a great place to have fun – a different environment (vs maximum six children in the baby room) but great exposure for little ones to develop. My daughter has a couple of allergies and dietary requirements, and the team have adapted the menus for her accordingly and changed the menu to accommodate our requests for a balanced diet. I couldn’t rate Platform One more highly, would strongly recommend to all.

February 26, 2021 at 12:00 amMy 2 year old son really enjoys his time at nursery. The whole team are extremely friendly and nurturing. They show endless dedication, care and support for my son’s wellbeing and development. The nursery has become an important integral part of my son’s life and he really looks forward to attending on the days he is in.

March 11, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter attended the nursery for one year and she absolutely loved it. The staff were a massive support when she started and we always felt she was happy and safe when she was there. When she left, her little brother started in the baby room and he also had a great start. He is very happy. The staff always provides a lot of information on the activities the children are engaged in and the reports they provide are very detailed. The staff are absolutely incredible and so caring. They are always polite and so positive. The nursery is super friendly and clean and even though it is not very big, it is very organised and they use all the space efficiently. I couldn’t recommend the nursery enough!

March 23, 2021 at 12:00 amPlatform One is a wonderful nursery. My daughter has attended since she was one and now she’s three. She looks forward to ‘nursery days’ and be with her friends. The staff are fantastic – so kind and genuinely supportive to the children. I also hear lots of food appraisals on the food provided! The response to COvid has been excellent – safe but without intimidating the children.

July 30, 2021 at 12:00 amPlatform One Nursery Ltd is a lovely nursery, my eldest daughter has attended since she was 1 (now 3) and my youngest started in February. The staff in both the baby and toddler room are brilliant and both girls settled really well and enjoy their time at nursery, which I think has a lot to do with the support and care of the staff. We are kept really well informed about what the children have been up to, in particular via their reports, which are so detailed and thoughtful. I would not hesitate to recommend the nursery to others!

August 9, 2021 at 12:00 amExcellent experience. The staff were excellent from the very start of our son’s journey. They always have developmental activities for the children and specific learning goals for each individual. There is regular contact with the parents through a mobile application as well as a daily update. My son has developed very quickly and is always so excited to go to nursery. I am so glad we decided to send him here.

May 20, 2022 at 12:00 amI We have sent both our children to this nursery and are so happy we did. The staff are attentive, warm, and friendly and spend time chatting with us to make us feel relaxed. Both of our children have been so happy and settled at this nursery and we love it.
