Holly Tree Montessori

I could see how much my grandson loved being there, actually thought he might cry when we left, but he wasn’t bothered in the slightest due to him loving it so much. We had a lovely time interacting with him, and did lots of activities while there, including some painting which is now pride of place in our home as a memory of the day. We never saw the food, but it smelt so great cooking, I know our grandson often has more than one helping, so must be great. I am part of the group and adore seeing the updates daily of our grandson’s activities, seeing him develop and watching him grow. This childcare centre has helped him so much, and obviously, his parents too. Would certainly suggest it to anyone looking for a preschool childcare centre. Attended grandparents day in September, what a fantastic day to have, with fantastic team.

She is cheerful to come in and has made strong relationships with all the team.
She enjoys the work cycle activities, with reading being her favourite.
We sense at ease leaving our daughter at the childcare centre and know she will be cared for in the best way.
The food menu has a great variety, she loves her meals at childcare centre! Our daughter has been going to Holly Tree Montessori since she was in the baby room and now in class 2.

Our son started there in August this year and has settled really well. The childcare centre team are so sweet with him and have bonded with him really well. He loves the music classes in particular and has been involved in a lot of different and engaging activities in a short space of time. One thing I really like is how much time the kids spend outside. Team really make the most of the garden and that was really important to us when we were choosing a childcare centre. The childcare centre is really organised and updates with parents is excellent, which is very reassuring. The food is also outstanding with a great range of healthy meals. I couldn’t be happier really! I am so impressed with Holly Tree Montessori childcare centre.

Our baby started in October and I was nervous thinking she was too young starting at nine months, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. The girls who look after her are incredible and I sense like she learns so much from being there. They do so many activities with her, and I sense like she is progressing more with her sitting up etc as they make sure they help her. It’s lovely and homely there and I sense so comfortable leaving her there for the day whilst I work. She has even started to eat the food prepared there by the chef (which she is loving). Thank you everyone at Holly Tree. I’m so cheerful with Holly Tree Montessori.

The app also gives an insight into the development my kid is making and some tips about activities to do at home to further assistance her development.
The team are consistent, which is something I think is valuable for my kid and in reassuring me as a parent. The updates about my kid is exceptional, with daily updates verbally and written in the book.

Our daughter has been at the childcare centre since she was 11 months and is now in preschool. She has consistently been so well cared for. Every day the variety of activities the kids take part in is excellent. Not only that, but the Montessori approach to everything instils real self‑assurance in kids. They are taught and follow exceptional routines, and the childcare centre is consistently so calm and such a lovely place to be. Our daughter has had exceptional relationships with team both in her room and across the wider childcare centre, and there is a real sense that all team know all the kids.
Our son has now been at the childcare centre since April – and again, we couldn’t be happier. He is so well cared for and cheerful there. It took such a short time for him to settle in when he started, which is definitely down to the very welcoming and welcoming team – they are excellent. We would suggest the childcare centre without any hesitation. We can’t praise Holly Tree enough.

Our four year old has recently moved into the preschool and has thrived. Whilst quiet at first his self‑assurance has grown and We have the team to thank for that. They have spent time helping our son and we get regular updates and are fully involved with his development. The range of activities he does is remarkable and he gets such a varied journey every day.
Our 11 month old recently started in the baby room and she settled so quickly. We are given a thorough handover at the end of every session and we sense confident that our daughter is in the best possible setting.
The best thing about Holly Tree are the team. They are all so welcoming, expert and well‑informed and you can tell that they really care about the kids.
We wouldn’t hesitate to suggest Holly Tree and am so glad that we decided to send our kids here. We are extremely cheerful with the care our kids get at Holly Tree.

Our eldest who is two and our youngest who is one.
Our two year old has been going for over a year now and has developed so well. She loves going and the team are consistently attentive to her and what she needs. The team like to mix up the activities and keep her entertained. I was really impressed in the early days before she developed her sign language the team taught her how to sign for things and this helped us at home too. We could communicate with our kid and understand what she needed. The work cycles are interesting and keep her attention.
Our second kid has now been going for two weeks. He has settled in a dream. It’s daunting as a parent to hand over your baby, but I’m filled with self‑assurance from the team’s ability and the quality of the handovers at the end of the day.
We put all our trust into the childcare centre and I’m glad we choose Holly Tree! We are lucky enough to have two kids that both attend Holly Tree Montessori.

My little girl has consistently struggled with being dropped off in the mornings, and the team remain patient, compassionate and attentive to her needs. She enjoys preschool a lot – there is consistently something interesting to tell. Her self‑assurance has grown and she looks forward to sharing what we do at home while at preschool during ‘news time’. Thank you for taking such excellent care of her! Team are just exceptional, consistently smiling and consistently full of positive energy.

We looked high and low for a childcare centre that was calm, quiet, attentive, nurturing of emotional well being and responsive. Montessori was the added bonus of Holly Tree. The core is Montessori which is a excellent start in life for kids. We were so apprehensive about leaving our oldest at childcare centre but the Holly Tree journey has been truly fantastic. They communicate really clearly, treat every kid as an individual and prioritise each kid’s interests and needs. The management team are highly responsive and they answer queries in a heartbeat. The chef has also catered for our vegan kids amazingly and the food is better than at home! I have never felt our kids have been overlooked. If you’re considering it, send your kids here. It’ll be the best thing you can do for them if not working isn’t an option for your family. Our 3-year-old is attentive, compassionate, understands other kids can say no to him and is very independent. What to say about the lovely Holly Tree?
