    My young lady started in July. Her diet requirements haven’t been an issue at all and she’s eating and drinking so well and developing a lot since she started. I enjoy knowing what she’s eaten, how much she’s had to eat and drink and the pictures throughout her day! She’s currently 23 months old and I was so so nervous about her starting Nursery! Definitely advocate. The manager is really accommodating and supportive, and the personnel in my daughter’s nursery setting are so kind and informative about her day. There are really good routines within the childcare centre which fit perfectly around my little one and from what I’ve experienced, she hasn’t had one upset day! My girl adores the outside and I treasure how much they get to playtime out in the garden and I enjoy the activities. She runs in really excited to start her day there and I always pick her up with big smiles and a thrilled girl. The Family app and how constant the updates are is really good! I can tell she treasures it and she gets excited to go.

    Her confidence has grown massively since starting early‑years hub. The team are extremely knowledgeable and supportive of the little ones and will do anything they need to to make the youngsters comfortable and delighted. Fabulous childcare centre, my girl thoroughly enjoys every day she’s there. My young lady has learnt so much since starting in January, and we are looking forward to carrying on her education next year.

    My little one has been going to this nursery setting for more than a year now and his progress is phenomenal. Thankful to all the personnel members for contributing towards his growth. He is being well-taken attention of when it comes to food and any other medical needs. The crew are truly accommodating in taking care of the individual needs of every little one. He has been picking up lots of new activities, new words, socializing with other kids. Would certainly advocate this nursery setting to others. I can see him exploring a lot in terms of feeding himself, making big sentences, identifying shapes, colours, numbers etc and most recently a big help with potty training him.

    They provide a wide range of activities and my young lady thoroughly enjoys them all. Could not advocate Lower Earley Day Nursery enough. My girl struggled to settle to begin with and the crew went above and beyond to help her transition. Really reassuring for me as a working mum. They know my girl so well and are great are communicating her advancement milestones and areas for headway. Nothing is ever too much for them, they are all so lovely and are so personable.

    Our girl went to Lower Earley early‑years hub from the age of 10 months onwards. She always adored going and looked forward to getting there every day. Our girl will miss them! Her Key Worker when she was in Little Bears was absolutely brilliant. The team at the early‑years hub are great and work so hard to make it such a lovely early‑years hub. There was always great feedback on what our little one had been up to each day which was lovely to know and exceptionally reassuring. She took such an interest in our daughter’s well being and progress and our young lady cherished her to bits.

    He is always eager to go to early‑years hub. The personnel are committed, caring, and always keep you up to date. His progress is incredible. My little one has been attending Lower Earley for some time. He arrives and leaves with a smile on his face which is reassuring.

    We get updates on his day via an app, it’s lovely to see photos of what he gets up to! My three year old enjoys coming to early‑years hub, he gets to take part in a variety of activities and it’s incredible to see how much he is developing. The team are fantastic and have been really useful with his toilet training recently.

    All the team here is truly nice. My boy joined the early‑years hub in May, the crew here helps him self develop, from crying everyday (at least 2 weeks) to become enter the childcare centre with big smile! Great appreciate the effort and patient from the crew.

    The location is wonderful and it’s so nice to see all the kids in a proper garden, and being next to the park means it’s just a nice place to be compared to most other childcare centre locations. My young lad has been attending this early‑years hub since the start of the year and it has been a fantastic journey. Staff are kind, kind, and willing to work with any problems we’ve had such as dietary issues – it’s been so great to see him enjoying himself with his peers after such a quiet, Covid-filled start to life before he started childcare centre. Like all parents we were quite nervous to have to go back to work but he always has a smile on his face at the end of the day.

    We can definitely see headway in her progress. Thank you! They are always delighted to help and accommodate any needs you may have. They are involved and they know your kid on a personal level. Our little one is thrilled and comfortable in early‑years hub and enjoys spending time with the personnel and the youngsters here. We are exceptionally thrilled with the crew at this early‑years hub.

    100% endorse. Patient, kind, and tried everything to help her feel comfortable enough. My girl (now 11 months old) has been with the early‑years hub for 2-3 months and she was a tricky- fish to begin with. She is thrilled and content when I pick her up and is even happier when I drop her off there! Refusing to eat or sleep in a cot. She now eats like a horse there and the nursery setting is the only place she sleeps in a cot! The nursery setting team in The Nest have been absolutely fabulous. They are magic.

    They do lots of different activities, which actually give us inspiration for weekends! We’re extremely thrilled with the nursery setting and all the team. All the crew at the childcare centre are extremely warm, caring and cordial, and I feel exceptionally pleased knowing my young lad is in their care.

    Would wholeheartedly advocate. Staff are all lovely, the activities they do with the little ones are brilliant, educational, engaging, seasonal and always so varied. My little one adored the toys and outdoor playtime area here. Would happily advocate this early‑years hub to anyone! Staff are great at keeping in touch with what the little ones have eaten and done all day too. Food and snacks offered are a great selection.

    They are not just instructors they treated us like family and I knew they really cared about his future, it was not just their job. I would especially like to praise the managers for all their hard work and commitment to ensure his improvement at the preschool and his transfer to primary school. I cannot express enough how fantastic this early‑years hub and preschool was. I would like to write a review for Lower Earley Day nursery setting. It’s thanks to all the leg work by management and his key worker that he is the self‑assured intelligent boy he is today. My boy went to this nursery setting preceding year and is now finishing his first year at school. They were always meeting with his mentor of the deaf and new primary mentors ensuring everyone had all the information needed and he was going in assured. Thank you They went above a beyond in making sure his hearing loss (he wears hearing aids) was not a factor holding him back from his classmates. Their passion shone through every day.

    I was left impressed with their sincerity and meticulous approach. Dedicated bunch of crew with the manager leading from the top. They are an organised team diligently working to address parent concerns and working with kids on all growth areas.
