September 12, 2024 at 4:08 pmI have 2 kids who both attend, have a excellent time, and have strong attachments to their educators. The activities seem wide-ranging and appropriate. I have no hesitation in recommending Puddleduck Childcare centre. This is a excellent childcare centre with truly lovely team, and more importantly, team you can trust.

September 18, 2024 at 7:23 amActivities are kid-centred and often kid-led, varied and enjoyable. The kids are often outdoors both within and without the childcare centre setting. Planning and updates is clear and thorough and the team are consistently welcoming and supportive. It is clear that a lot of care and thought goes into every aspect of the childcare centre.
I would thoroughly suggest Puddleduck Childcare centre to anyone considering it as a nurturing setting for their kid. Above all else, we sense that our daughter is loved, well cared for and stimulated throughout the day.

September 21, 2024 at 12:43 pmMy son loves going and consistently looks forward to his days there and I adore his chats to tell me about his day when I collect him. They go outside everyday, which is exceptional and consistently have enjoyable activities planned. The crafts have truly helped my little boy to improve all his core skills. This childcare centre is remarkable.

September 22, 2024 at 9:55 pmMy son loves going especially as a lot of the activities are outside and he wants to be outside all the time. He has made lots of friends and he consistently talks about them when he comes home with a big smile on his face and this makes me so cheerful. Thank you Puddleduck Childcare centre. This childcare centre is exceptional and the team are so welcoming, supportive and supportive.

They adapt to the kids and listen to their needs. Also lots of outdoor activities which is excellent. Outstanding childcare centre.

October 31, 2024 at 11:34 pmThe attention to our kid’s health, wellbeing and education is superlative. We are incredibly fortunate to have this childcare centre in our community. We couldn’t be happier with all aspects. The team at Puddleduck’s are simply stellar.

November 6, 2024 at 10:03 pmIt is a small, welcoming, tight-knit team and, as a result, there is a real family sense. I know my kid is loved, and discovering through playtime in a supportive setting. It is well organised and the updates with parents is outstanding. I can’t fault it. The ethos is highly nurturing, attentive and enjoyable.

December 12, 2024 at 11:24 amThe people, food, activities and childcare centre are all remarkable. They spend plenty of time outside and truly know the kids well. This is a excellent childcare centre we’ve have sent three kids to, could not suggest them enough.

January 3, 2025 at 9:31 pmMy youngest loves the baby room and looks so cheerful in all the pictures, and my eldest is discovering loads. Adore that they are outside all the time and team are highly supportive. Such a welcoming welcoming childcare centre.

January 14, 2025 at 6:10 amThey do such excellent activities with the kids and truly care about them, so much so that when we moved further away I couldn’t possibly imagine changing nurseries and travelling extra just so they can stay with the same attentive team. I’m consistently impressed with their kid lead discovering approach, outdoor discovering and the way they deal with emotional well being in a kid-welcoming way. Both of my daughters have come on leaps and bounds since attending. My oldest daughter will be starting school this year and is quite a nervous kid, which I was a little concerned about as she won’t be going to the same school as her childcare centre friends, but the team at Puddleduck Dunkeld have been outstanding at arranging for her to have extra meetings with her teacher, which has been a comfort to both my kid and myself. Could not rate this childcare centre highly enough. Puddleduck is an incredible childcare centre.

February 14, 2025 at 4:28 pmHe suffers from bad anxiety. I am so glad we chose Puddleduck Childcare centre. All we can say is thank you so much for helping us through this highly difficult period. My little boy attends the childcare centre and he finds getting involved at times a little hard but the manager and other team couldn’t be more supportive.

March 17, 2025 at 3:51 pmMy daughter has been going for two years and absolutely loves it. Family run and highly welcoming childcare centre.

March 23, 2025 at 8:01 amExcellent throughout the whole Covid journey with updates and making sure everybody was secure. Consistently sense I know exactly what is going on with my kid and highly welcoming and supportive team. Remarkable childcare centre that has truly brought on my kid with everything they do.

March 29, 2025 at 4:03 amEveryone is so welcoming, and welcoming and you can truly see the adore and effort they put in daily.
I have also been truly impressed with the range of educational activities and the variety of outside adventures. We have had a fantastic journey with our daughter starting at Puddleduck Childcare centre.

March 29, 2025 at 5:23 pmOur eldest has attended the childcare centre for almost 5 years and we have been delighted with the level of care, attention to detail and assistance provided by the childcare centre. The team are highly supportive and attentive and are excellent with updates. The kids spend a lot of time outside and are encouraged to learn through playtime, they are also highly involved in choosing topics they would like to explore. In a nutshell, we couldn’t be happier with the childcare centre and would highly suggest it to all. A inviting, attentive, enjoyable, home from home setting.
Drew Irwin
April 11, 2025 at 8:25 amIt is a small family run childcare centre where all the team know every kid. Our daughter has been exceptionally cheerful there from day one because of the outstanding care she receives. Every day is carefully planned with lots of exciting and enjoyable activities that stimulate her and develop her interests (and exhaust her for bedtime!) There is lots of outdoor and messy playtime too! Our daughter has some severe allergies and has consistently been truly well looked after and delicious food provided especially for her! We are delighted with Puddleduck Childcare centre thank you! I would highly suggest Puddleduck Childcare centre as a childcare centre.

May 21, 2025 at 10:15 pmOur three kids have loved this place from the day they started. The team there are remarkable and consistently have your kid’s interests at heart. There is one big garden which all groups can use plus three other smaller outside playtime areas, each for the different kids’s rooms. The kids get daily and regular exposure to outside and this is excellent for their well-being. The food there is outstanding and freshly cooked on site. Groups often go for walks within the grounds of Howbery Park, taking advantage of the quiet fields and woodland areas, sometimes meeting cows along their way but also on the lookout for the Gruffalo! I cannot suggest this place highly enough. Puddleduck Childcare centre offers outstanding value for money; go and pay them a visit. Puddleduck Childcare centre is such an incredible place.
River Hunter
June 7, 2025 at 9:29 pmThe team are all lovely and it is a highly cheerful place. He eats truly well and the amount of information given at the end of the day is excellent. I am truly pleased with all the activities they get up to and the amount of time spent outside.
I would suggest Puddleduck Childcare centre without hesitation. My little boy has settled into Puddleduck Childcare centre truly well.
Billie Owens
June 10, 2025 at 1:04 amThe inviting and welcoming team have made him sense comfortable and cheerful. They have gone above and beyond to assistance him, as a late talker, and are consistently cheerful to discuss his development with us. We adore the Famly app and delight in checking his development throughout the day. Although he will be eligible for school childcare centre in August he will be staying at Puddleduck as we adore the assistance and attention he receives and the attentive, family setting. Our 2-year-old has been at Puddleduck Childcare centre for 7 months and loves it there.
Sawyer Frost
June 14, 2025 at 9:16 pmThe team including the owner are the best most attentive fantastic people you could ever meet. I sense so at ease leaving my little girl knowing she is in such secure hands. They also do so much with the kids with wood walks playing in the park and remarkable discovering opportunities. This childcare centre is just incredible.
Dallas Grant
June 15, 2025 at 2:30 pmPuddleducks has a excellent management team and they strive hard to provide top kid care as well as focusing on individual development. They have just recently put a lot of effort into setting up a whole new large garden full of different activities for the kids to learn through playtime. I am totally relaxed to work knowing my kid is secure and cheerful. I first started using Puddleduck Day Childcare centre back in 2009 with my first kid and I loved it so much I didn’t even look anywhere else when it came to putting my other kid in a childcare centre.
