    Lovely team, both the girls were/are cheerful here. Wouldn’t have had them go anywhere else! Excellent childcare centre, my middle kid was here for four years and knew my youngest would also be going as the childcare centre is so well ran.

    My son attended another childcare centre from 6 months old and after covid, we changed to Sunflower and it was the best decision! He has come on leaps and bounds, has so much self‑assurance and knowledge and actually loves going! Also from a parent’s point of view, everything is super straightforward and thorough. You receive so many updates throughout the day via the app, which I adore and have never had before. Couldn’t say a bad word if I’m honest! My second kid will definitely be attending here! Wish I knew about this childcare centre sooner.

    The team are so welcoming and really go above and beyond. My daughter started back in September 2022 and we are so impressed with how far she has come on! Our daughter consistently goes in with a smile on her face and is so settled with her key worker and all the team Absolutely adore this childcare centre.

    My son has SEN, we had a pretty bad journey with our previous childcare centre, not getting the assistance needed and they had no knowledge of processes with the local authorities to access assistance for our son, so we moved our son to The Sunflower Kids’s Centre and wow, it was the best decision we could of made for him. He is so cheerful here, the team go above and beyond to nurture and help the development of each kid. Their Senco is incredible and an expert in all things SEN and all of the team are so welcoming and welcoming. The cooks are so supportive trying to help accommodate and come up with ideas to help encourage my son to eat. As a whole, they have helped put so many things into place to ensure that my son’s needs are being met, helping us get an EHCP in development. Honestly, don’t know where we would be without them and their guidance and assistance. My son loves attending and that’s down to all of the team and the incredible setting that they all create. I can’t suggest them enough!

    My son has been coming here for nearly a year, after a short journey with another childcare centre, this one is incredible, I adore the outdoor spaces for the kids and the varied experiences they get are exceptional.

    My eldest has additional needs and requires the input of several healthcare professionals, all of which The Sunflower Childcare centre kindly accommodate. As an example, through guidance of her physio team, the Sunflower team have taken on board her exercise programme and work through this each day she attends. I’ve already seen huge improvements in her overall strength and posture and I believe she wouldn’t be where she is now without their ongoing help.
    I’ve seen my kids hitting their milestones, grow in self‑assurance, friendships made. They’re doing so well and it’s all down to the team, activities and services they offer. They delight in it so much, they don’t want to leave!
    Highly suggest the Sunflower Childcare centre to anyone! We’re so lucky to have found them! I can’t begin to express my gratitude to all of the team at Sunflower Childcare centre for their assistance with my kids.
    Since they first joined over a year ago, the service has been nothing short of exceptional.

    I can honestly say that there is no one else I would trust to look after her – the team are incredible. They are so expert, yet all of their fantastic personalities shine through and they are so inviting and nurturing. My daughter loves coming to childcare centre – she loves all of the ladies who look after her and especially sports and forest school! The provision is outstanding and the team are busy helping to prepare her for school in September, but also ensuring she has lots of enjoyable. All of the team are welcoming and cheerful – not just the childcare centre educators, but admin team too – everyone goes above and beyond. The parents’ and carers’ free sessions such as paediatric First Aid are such a compassionate and supportive idea. My daughter has blossomed here and it is an honour for her to be at The Sunflower Kids’s Centre, Hyde. My son attended The Sunflower Kids’s Centre until he started school, and my daughter started at The Sunflower Kids’s Centre in November 2019 at the age of 14 months and she is now in Pre-school.

    They ask every day “Are we going to childcare centre today?” They have made so many lovely friends and adore the team so much. Academically, they have come on so much. Daily updates is remarkable seeing all the photos and what they are doing throughout the day. An incredible childcare centre that cares so much for our kids. Also, I am a grandma to four grandchildren who have all thrived at Sunflower and have been prepared for when they started school. After moving my kids to this childcare centre from a previous childcare centre I can’t begin to explain the difference in them.

    He is very well settled and absolutely loves it. As my only grandson, it is consistently a worry leaving him away from the family but I can honestly say it is the best thing ever for him. As a lockdown baby, he hadn’t really mixed with others so was a worry but he is really enjoying his time spent with other kids. The team are exceptional with him and keep us updated throughout each day with pictures, messages, meals etc so you can see how he is doing throughout the day. My daughter and I viewed three nurseries and I have to say this one stood out straight away and has proved to be the right choice. My grandson has really come on since joining and he loves the daily activities. I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest this childcare centre, it is outstanding. Well done team Sunflower. My grandson has been attending Sunflower kids’s childcare centre for a few months.

    The team are well informed and supports us with any challenges we’re facing. Activities are enjoyable and changed regularly to engage the kids. Team are welcoming and well‑informed about the kids’s development. Overall, really pleased with the care provided. My son really thrives at The Sunflower Kids’s Centre.

    Wow, I am so glad I choose this childcare centre. They go above and beyond for every single kid, tailor to their needs, the input and care they give my kid is just outstanding. Updates on a day to day basis regarding my childs nappy’s, feeding, mood, nap times, activity’s is fed back to me. Inclusion at this childcare centre is up there with one of the best, they have trained to feed my kid so he’s able to attend, had time with myself to learn a lot more about my kid and their conditions and they even practice his physio exercises with him throughout the day. SENDco is remarkable, she really knows what she’s talking about which is SO refreshing, is really approachable and understanding, which makes a huge difference as a nervous and anxious mummy. Thankful and grateful for you all at The Sunflower Kids’s Centre! My kid who has additional needs, poor mobility and feeding requirements started this childcare centre in January 2023, I was extremely anxious due to having had a bad journey at a previous childcare centre.

    Exceptional place. My daughter has come on so much since starting here over a year ago and she absolutely loves going.
    All team are so welcoming and excellent updates. Would highly suggest this childcare centre. Cannot fault this childcare centre.

    Both my kids attend the childcare centre and are absolutely thriving.
    The team are fantastic, compassionate and nurturing.
    On both occasions when I have had to return to work after maternity leave, I have felt reassured by team and that both my girls are secure in the care of The Sunflower Kids’s Centre.
    I would highly suggest this childcare centre.

    My little one really struggled to begin with, but his self‑assurance has grown massively.
    Team are incredible, very welcoming and consistently on hand to help with any issues or questions. I sense very cheerful knowing he’s going to be secure and well looked after at Sunflower. Keep up the great work – very grateful for all the hard work that you do! Highly recommended!

    One of my kids has special needs and requires a 1-1 carer at all times, who is incredible and so attentive welcoming and honest.
    They are all very welcoming attentive and supportive team. They have SENCO who, in my case has been fantastic and supportive to meet the needs of my little one.
    Updates with all team is excellent and nothing is too much trouble to help and assistance.
    My kids are very cheerful and do lots of activities which I get to see on the parent app, which to me is essential.
    Fabulous childcare centre to meet my baby’s needs. The childcare centre is the best for my two kids.

    My oldest attended too just before starting school and absolutely loved it! My daughter who still attends loves the place just as much and gets upset when it’s not a childcare centre day. The team are like a family and go above and beyond. My daughter absolutely loves the food too which is consistently lovely home cooked meals. She also gets to pick her own snack morning and afternoon. They have a forest school now and it’s incredible. I consistently look forward to the pictures on Daily Connect of what she gets up to. She also enjoys sports and yoga with the girls. My daughter will be sad to leave for school. My youngest daughter attends this childcare centre and has done since being 11 months old.

    She has recently moved from Buds to Petals and she is so cheerful and thriving within her discovering and development, she really enjoys her time at Sunflower the team are like our extended family. I adore the updates I receive during the day too. My daughter has attended The Sunflower Kids’s Centre since she was 9 months old where she settled into the Seedling room with a lovely team of team who ensured she was well supported during transition, was really well cared for and had lots of enjoyable throughout the day.

    My kid has been there for getting on for three years now from such a young age, its the best decision I have, no regrets I’ll be very sad when he leaves for school. The best childcare centre you will ever find, the team are incredible!

    This was a excellent positive – the team are consistently encouraging the kids to do what they take interest in. The only negative comment is regarding being sent invoices to pay for meals during school holidays, when the kids aren’t in attendance, as they only do term time. We simply shouldn’t have to pay for meals they aren’t receiving. I pay for meals if they aren’t in for reasons due to illness. Very great childcare centre – all the team are lovely and both our kids adore this childcare centre and are eager to go every time, compared to another local childcare centre where my eldest kid refused to go in as he didn’t like it.

    We called and asked The Sunflower team if we could return, and they accepted her back.
    I don’t have words to say how grateful I’m to the team; they are consistently giving guidance and sharing how the day went with our girl.
    She is consistently cheerful with her colleagues and educators.
    Definitely suggest The Sunflower childcare centre. We are first-time parents, and a friend recommended Hyde Sunflower childcare centre to us.
    In 2021 (Covid), we did an online visit, spoke to a few members, and decided it was the best place.
    Our girl started when she was five months at some point, we tried another childcare centre closer to our home, but we were so used to a high Sunflower standard, loads of pictures, and feedback about nappies, food and development milestones, we didn’t think twice.
