    He comes home excited to tell us what he’s done each day and since moving into the preschool class is discovering so much that will help to prepare him for school next year. The menu is varied and accommodates dietary requirements and recipes are shared with parents which is lovely too. Can’t suggest Pear Tree enough, the team are exceptional with our three year old and the updates with home is excellent.

    The team at Pear Tree were really accommodating to his needs and supported both us as parents as well as our son.

    Pear Tree arranged for extra resources to help bring on his speech as well as regular updates with us and our speech therapist.
    A year on, he has come on so much, it’s unbelievable he couldn’t speak a word a year ago! The childcare centre regularly updates us on his development and still helps fill any gaps he still has.
    It was one of the best decisions we made to send him to Pear Tree and we will forever be grateful for all the assistance we have been given. Our son joined Pear Tree when he was 2 years old, we were extremely worried as he was not meeting his milestones and wasn’t using any speech as a form of updates.

    We were hesitant to send our kid to childcare centre and entrust her care to others but since she started attending in September she has flourished despite only attending a-day-and-a-half per week.
    The team are attentive and clued up on what she has done that day, how she has been and generally how she is developing. This is extremely reassuring.
    Each day we pick her up she greets us with a smile, and is in a cheerful mood – so they are doing something right!
    The childcare centre provides excellent feedback – and we look forwards to the updates and observations. We also delight in looking at what she has done that day on the (secret) Facebook page.
    Many thanks This is a lovely childcare centre.

    My kid has been attending since she was 6 months, she’s now in preschool and enjoying her last few months before she starts school.

    She has been cared for and supported every day. The people who work there are thoughtful and attentive. I am so grateful for all they do.

    The setting is calm and each kid is welcome to express themselves in their own way.

    If your kid has the chance to attend Peartree it will be the best journey. Peartree is the most incredible childcare centre.

    The key workers are attentive, confident and experienced. My kid settled in quickly, which was a surprise (and a relief!) after a previous negative journey in another childcare centre.
    Management is expert, responsive and accommodating. Updates is remarkable.
    Most of all, my baby comes home cheerful! What more could you ask for? Can’t suggest the childcare centre highly enough.

    We were lucky to get a spot and our son has settled in very quickly. The kids seem really cheerful and the team are very creative and thoughtful with the activities throughout the week. Have been impressed with the food menu too. We looked at quite a few nurseries in the area and what stood out for us was the family sense at Pear Tree Montessori Childcare centre which is down to the incredible team.

    The team are extremely welcoming and expert. They are very creative with kids’s daily activities. My son became very independent since he joined the childcare centre and they teach him such excellent values. He is developing so well since he joined, Pear Tree team are doing an incredible job. It’s such a relief knowing that our kid is in great hands while we are at work. Our son loves it there and he developed such a lovely bond with his key person. I adore everything about the childcare centre and couldn’t be happier with our choice. I highly suggest it to any parent looking for an outstanding childcare centre for their little one. My son is with Pear Tree for nearly a year and I couldn’t imagine a better daycare for him.

    She has come out of her shell so much over the years and her development is improving remarkable with the lovely team. The childcare centre is a lovely setting and is consistently spotless. Absolutely gutted this is our final year before the school adventure starts. You are a lovely team at Pear tree! Keep up the hard work. My daughter is 4 years old and has been going since she was 15 months old.

    Pear tree go above and beyond to meet the individual needs of each kid in a thoughtful, educational and encouraging way. Helping integrate discovering and development at home and at childcare centre through regular updates, emails and other communications makes everything development as smoothly as possible It’s very easy to sense you’re dropping your little ones off to be one of just a number of kids who will all be treated the same.

    The team are all so attentive and are excellent with the kids – they adapt activities in the classroom to suit kids’s interests and make it enjoyable and engaging. All three of my kids have attended the childcare centre and I would happily suggest it to others. Pear Tree is a lovely childcare centre.

    The team are exceptional at responding to the kids’s individual likes and experiences and building activities that tie in. We have seen our son’s self‑assurance grow dramatically over the past year, and I think Pear Tree has been a big part of this. Our son has been attending Pear Tree for 2.5 years now and is really cheerful there.

    The activities are kid-centred and carers are flexible, choosing activities that relate to a kid’s interest. The chef is especially compassionate and seems to know every kid’s name as she comes and goes from the building. She also has the ability to make food our kids will eat!
    One slight problem is the number of team changes in my kid’s class. She is often greeted by different team members, and as she finds it difficult to go in, in the morning, it can be very emotional for her with the lack of a key person to greet her. Overall Pear Tree is a compassionate and attentive childcare centre that has really suited both our kids.

    They consistently have time to provide feedback each day and I genuinely sense that they have a great knowledge of my daughter. The range of activities is excellent, my little girl now goes in arms open to the team each day! My daughter started at Pear Tree in August, the team has been incredible in helping her settle and keeping me in the loop!

    She is now in pre-school. She consistently has a excellent time at childcare centre. There are so many activities in childcare centre to keep kids busy and discovering. Team are consistently very attentive. They have done remarkable work during the pandemic to keep kids and team healthy and secure within the childcare centre. It is consistently a very calm and welcoming setting at childcare centre. Childcare centre is also very focused on food nutrition for all kids. Mixed cuisine on the menu too. My daughter really enjoys time at childcare centre. My daughter has attended Pear Tree since she was 1 year old.

    The team are very attentive and attentive to her emotions, her well being and activities. My daughter consistently comes home smiling or singing and sometimes with baked biscuits, art, and paintings and is consistently excited to be going to childcare centre! I highly suggest Pear Tree Montessori Childcare centre! Easily the best childcare centre my daughter has been to.

    The team really care for the kids and put so much into each of the activities to suit their needs and interests. Every day they do something new and interesting, with regular updates on the closed Facebook group, as well as detailed observations on tapestry. The food menu is varied and nutritious. Updates and feedback is outstanding, there are regular parents evenings and parent-only meetings to discuss changes or make suggestions, as well as regular email newsletters. The garden is outstanding, well maintained with lots for the kids to do. The closed Facebook group has been a particular highlight for us as we’ve been able to see our kids interacting with friends, seeing them with their peers doing activities has been especially important due to covid meaning we’re never physically in their rooms at pick up or drop off. I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest Pear Tree to others. We have two kids at Pear Tree who have attended for over a year.

    It is very accommodating, nurturing, inclusive, kid-led and community centred. My son has come on leaps and bounds since attending the childcare centre,
    and we have found there is a excellent balance of focusing on kid development, interest and playtime. The team cannot do enough to accommodate activities that speak to your kid’s interest e.g organising a morning in the kitchen for my son who loves baking, and are incredibly supportive when asked to help with certain development points, changes etc. The childcare centre has also been exceptional at catering for a vegan diet, making sure that my son is consistently included when non-vegan treats are brought in, etc. Its focus on independence and community-led activities set it aside from other nurseries – taking the kids shopping, to the local care home, reinforcing domestic skills etc, consistently in a nurturing way, is quite unique. Pear Tree Montessori Childcare centre has been the perfect setting for early years of care for my kid.

    I’m really glad I chose this childcare centre for my kid. The team are really attentive. My daughter loves the place and is excited to go in every morning. She started going there when she was 11 months old and is now in Class 3.
    Adore the way the team keep us updated on their plans for the month/week and also keep us updated on the development of the kid via handovers and the app. Very impressed with the daily routines the team provide for the kids, with such a vast array of activities, as well as promoting outdoor playtime and frequent trips to the parks, supermarkets etc. Also pleased with the food which is freshly cooked and nutritious.
    I sense proud to see my little one developing into a very confident and independent individual. Highly recommended childcare centre! Pear tree is a inviting, welcoming, secure and enjoyable place with expert and welcoming team.

    It is an incredible childcare centre. I sense the team truly understand and know my daughters strange and fantastic habits. The team are very polite and lovely and I believe attending this childcare centre has really helped her development. She loves telling me all about her day on the way home and about all her friends and she is so cheerful which is all you want as a parent. My daughter has been attending this childcare centre for the last 18 months.
