    Having just enrolled, myself and little one have been put at ease by staff and we’ve both had an enjoyable settling in period at nursery. Staff have been informative, welcoming and accommodating for myself and my child which is greatly received in these unprecedented times. I’m looking forward to seeing how my child develops throughout her time at Daisy Chain.

    Both my children have attended Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse for a combined total of 8 years, and both their cousins before them. We can’t recommend this nursery highly enough, from the safe location, to the warm, welcoming and caring staff. The care they have given to our children has been second to none, excellent clean and safe facilities, meals are an extremely high standard, and the extra activities throughout the year are more than most nurseries provide. We were sad to end this chapter before starting school. I have recommended this nursery to numerous friends and work colleagues.

    My daughter currently attends and has done so since the beginning of the year. The staff here are excellent and form a real connection with the children. My daughter loves going and is developing fantastically as a result. The daily updates are great and everyone I’ve ever spoken to have been only too happy to try and help. I’d have no doubts about recommending this nursery to other parents.

    All of the nursery staff are very friendly and helpful. They support and encourage my daughter in achieving her goals and I feel she is in very good and safe hands when she attends the nursery. My daughter thoroughly enjoys going to nursery.

    My child has been going to this nursery since he was 9 months old, and he’s now 3 and a half. Every room has been amazing with him and I don’t believe he would be as advanced as he is without the love and care provided here. I could not recommend it enough, I drop him off and I don’t have to worry about him all day and I can check on the app whether he’s eaten/slept etc during the day which really helps. Amazing staff in an amazing place, the team are so happy and my little one loves it.

    We have been very happy with all aspects of the nursery. Since he has been with Daisy Chain he has explored new tasks and activities that we couldn’t achieve at home. The daily meals that the children have are fantastic and very different from day to day cooking at home too.

    My daughter has been going to Daisy Chain since she was six months old and she is now two-and-a-half years old!
    I cant praise and recommend this nursery enough to other people.
    The staff are fantastic. Nothing you ask is too much for them to do to help your child. They will facilitate you whenever possible and will take any of your concerns for your child on board and help with them.
    My daughter has been in two of the rooms and about to move into the preschool room and each room she has been in has been amazing. I don’t think she would be as advanced in her learning and social skills without going here and all this is thanks to the team that work here.
    We love the relationship and bonds that have been built with our little girl and we have no issue when it comes to her attending nursery, in fact, she runs away into the building without looking back.
    We have just enrolled our new baby to start when they are six months old as we have no doubt that this is the place we want them to explore!

    My son started Lofthouse nursery at the start of January and since then he is thriving. In less than two months he has really come into himself. He is always happy when we drop him off and pick him up. The staff are really friendly and when I pick my son up they will always spend time to give me an update on his day. The online journal is updated everyday so I can see what he has eaten, drank and when he has been changed and put down to have a sleep. Occasionally it is also updated with photos which are lovely to see what he has been up to during the day. My son was poorly when he first started nursery and the staff were very supportive.

    Our son really enjoys going to the nursery and loves his key worker. The nursery does lots of activities such as painting and crafts. The food is nutritious and varied. I would recommend Daisy Chain to any parent.

    My little boy has been going here since he was around 10 months old and he’s starting school this September.
    He’s flourished so much during his time here, he adores the staff and has made lots of friends.
    The staff are amazing and have helped him to grow so much.

    My son absolutely loves Daisy Chain he doesn’t even look back when they open the door to let him in.

    We get daily updates on his activities which show his usual routine and we also get lovely updates on special activities he enjoys including lovely pictures!

    The staff are incredible and are very experienced they always have a lovely story about his day which they share when we pick him up. We couldn’t be happier!

    I am delighted with the standard of care my son has received while at Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse. He has specific dietary requirements that have been met with a varied menu and the staff in his room have taken the time to get to know him. His social skills have really developed in the time he has been there and his key worker has been brilliant.

    This nursery has been fantastic in helping my child’s development. He was delayed in his development, he had only been there about a month when I could see massive fantastic changes in his development. He has been there for over a year and he loves it. Great staff. I just hope my new area has a great nursery like this.

    I cannot recommend Daisy Chain Lofthouse enough! The staff are amazing and so friendly. Both my boys love going and they have learnt so much during their time there. My eldest leaves to go to school in September and the staff have helped make sure he is more than ready!

    Overall, we love Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse and our son seems to too.
    The staff are lovely and really friendly.
    One thing that would be great is more detail for each day and more regular updates on the online journal. We see food and nappies but it would be so good to know more about the activities completed each day and how our son is coming on with his development, what is the next stage etc.

    We have been so impressed with the level of love and care shown to our daughter at Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse and highly recommend the nursery. She started part-time in the baby room at 6 months old and is now 17 months and attending 5 days per week in the toddler room. Each day she comes home with a new skill or word and her confidence has grown massively. The staff arrange a wide variety of themed activities to encourage learning through play. We have also been really happy with the food served, it’s healthy and very varied which was really beneficial on her weaning journey.

    Since starting at Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse, my child has developed extremely well due to the attentive and nurturing care he receives. Each member of staff has been friendly and welcoming, which makes leaving my child that much easier.
    Highly recommended.

    Our daughter has attended Daisy Chain Lofthouse since age 2 and is just leaving to start school. We have never had any problems, all staff have been lovely and warm towards the children. Would particularly like to mention our daughter’s key worker, such a lovely girl towards all children, my little girl took a real shine to her since she met her and it’s continued. She always tells us lots about our daughter’s day and what she’s done well, what she’s eaten, who she’s played with etc. she’s a real credit to the team!
    Would recommend Daisy Chain Lofthouse to friends and look forward to my younger daughter attending.

    My son has attended this nursery for almost 4 years and has loved every moment! When first starting he wasn’t talking much but that soon changed!
    He has thrived in this setting and experimented with all kinds of foods and activities and has been encouraged to be himself throughout!
    A special mention to his key worker who has been absolutely outstanding and embraced his utter craziness!
    I cannot recommend this nursery enough!

    My 4-year-old daughter is just about to leave Daisy Chain after 4 years when she first attended when she was 6 months. The care, attention, love and commitment she has received has been nothing short of exceptional. She has thrived at Daisy Chain, she has made friends, gained her independence, been to parties and enjoyed her time. Due to such a positive experience, we enrolled our youngest daughter who is 1 and has been attending since she was 9 months old. It has been a joy to see her so enthusiastic to go to her key workers, that reassures me she is safe and having the best time.
    The staff members in particular who have made my girl’s experience so great is the lady in the Pixie room. She took care of both my daughters and they adore her. The lady in the Imps room has such a special bond with my youngest, she loves to see her. The lady in the Elves room has a fantastic relationship with my eldest daughter.
    I cannot thank them enough for their kindness, patience and care they have given my children.
