    I think it is an extraordinary nursery. My daughter goes there and she enjoyed it thought it was amazing.

    We have been using Good Manors for the past 4 years since our 1st child and we really got lucky with this nursery. They all are wonderful and could not be more caring. We had some speech delay issues with our 2nd child and they made big efforts to assist providing 1 to 1 time. Our children have always come home happy and given the opportunity to try a huge range of fruit and vegetables. We have recommended already to two of our friends who have sent two more children each and all love the nursery.

    We started nursery in June 2020 and it’s been a wonderful experience. Our daughter absolutely loves it, which makes us parents very happy and relieved.
    Nursery app is a great tool for how we can follow our baby’s daily activities, routine and see what she’s up to really helps in this busy world.
    Staff is very friendly, caring and professional. Communication is always honest and we feel we always can be open to discuss if anything we like could be done differently which would benefit our child. To find a very good nursery is so important for every parent and we feel like we found one.

    My two boys started at the nursery in October last year and have loved going ever since. They settled in really quickly and look forward to going. They’re always exhausted when they get home after a busy day getting involved with all the different activities on offer. They have both come on so much in their learning and development since attending and I just wish they started at the nursery sooner. The staff are amazing and always keep you updated. I would definitely recommend the nursery to friends and family.

    My son only attends nursery one day a week and didn’t start attending until he was 21 months old. He found it very difficult to settle and was emotional most of the day for the first few weeks. The staff were so patient and kind to him, and encouraged me to keep sending him even though I had my doubts he would settle. Over the weeks the tears at drop off became less and now he goes in without even a backwards glance. He is developing well in all areas and is growing in confidence. I am sure this is due to all he learns at nursery. Thank you!

    Good Manors at Miller Drive are a fantastic nursery! We cannot speak highly enough of this nursery and would recommend to anyone. Both our children have attended this nursery and both have had a brilliant experience.

    My daughter has always loved going to nursery. She has learnt so much from going there as well as becoming a very confident social child. All of the staff are great with her, they really go out of their way to relay any achievements or concerns with us. I am confident when my son starts at Good Manors he will thrive as much as my daughter has.

    Great nursery. There is always a busy schedule of activities whether it be messy play, baking or crafts. The meals are great and varied. The staff are friendly. My daughter comes home having learnt something new most days.

    One amazing nursery and playschool, both my son at present and my older daughter came to this playschool and wow they are fantastic, the keyworkers and management are excellent. They do everything in their power to help, excel our children and you always know they are there if you need anything answered. The confidence my children have I do beleive comes down to the playschool, I will always recommend them. You feel safe when you have to leave the children there and feel so comfortable with them all.

    My daughter has been at Good Manors Day Nursery Miller Drive for two years. She has excelled in their care and has been fully supported in all her individual needs. I cannot fault them at all and fully trust them to care for my daughter and continue to support her in every aspect of her development. They have gone above and beyond for my daughter.
    My youngest will be starting when she is old enough, I had no doubts at all about booking her in. The staff are all wonderful and so caring.

    My children have been going here since 2019, they have recently been bought so changed hands/name. It’s still new to know if this change is good or bad for the individual nursery.
    Time will tell! The manager has been fab running the nursery. Staff are always friendly and knowledgeable.

    I love the feel of our nursery – all the staff are really friendly and the additional care taken of the children is fantastic. For example, a special Mother’s Day afternoon tea was organised with homemade biscuits and cakes. This was a really lovely thought for parents to enjoy (and the cakes were absolutely amazing thank you to the chef!) I really value the updates on the app and so would really like these to continue and be as detailed as possible.

    Great nursery and amazing staff. Always helpful and supportive. Great activities, especially the Mother’s Day afternoon tea. The nursery app is not great but besides this, it is a great nursery and our daughter is really happy.

    The nursery has a great reputation in the area. The staff are fantastic and it’s such a shame that key people are leaving as they have really given that personal touch which is needed with families. The learning, activities and reports on the app are great. It is a shame that there are less social media photos and updates, specifically for the nursery now that it’s under a larger company. The management team at the nursery are quick to respond to any questions. I’ve never had any safeguarding concerns. The main issue we have is that the menu, which has been in place for the last few months, has food on offer which is less suitable for the average 3/4-year-old. Our son eats a variety of food and is a good eater outside of nursery but has recently eaten barely any of his main meals. Whilst I understand that fees have to go up with the cost of living, the change to holiday reduction has been disappointing as it means that’s a significant amount of money lost if you wish to spend any time away.

    Our son started at Good Manners in October 2022. We have been very pleased with everything and the app works really well, although I wish it was updated before/on pick-up as sometimes it isn’t updated until later in the evening, although I understand this is difficult with so many children! We have also noticed how much he drinks when getting home and I’m not sure what the process is or how often a drink is offered but it’s just something we have picked up on.
    Overall we have been very happy and everyone is very friendly!

    I love this nursery. We moved from London and the nursery we were at was exceptional but this is even better. The staff are wonderful and very supportive and responsive and both my children have excelled. I could not be happier

    Our first son attended Miller Drive over ten years ago. When we had our second son we knew that was where we wanted him to go. It’s a very clean, caring, loving environment and he has the best fun! I love the mixture of a couple of days at home and three at nursery, I feel it gives him a good balance to interact with other adults and children and be able to do different activities and develop and develop the confidence away from home. He waves to every staff member when leaving. The food is very good and balanced. Highly recommend.

    My baby boy always cries in entry to nursery but he has been going since 9 months old and has now almost been there a year. The nursery has been so accommodating in ensuring he settled quickly with no tears. They update us with memories and pictures on their app which we find reassuring while both me and his other mum are at work. They are thoughtful when it comes to Mother’s Day they created two mum cards and for Father’s Day he did it for his grandad. All the staff are kind and caring and always go above and beyond. They have helped with all of his skills and even his sleep pattern has improved because of them. They do plenty of activities and have a lovely outside space which our son absolutely loves. He loves all the staff there. I would recommend this nursery to everyone. We can’t wait for our son to develop with them over the next few years.

    The staff are lovely and so good with the kids. They have a variety of activities, the food seems good. They are flexible and have early drop-offs and half days. My son leaves happy every day. I can’t ask for more.

    Ok nursery, not as good as it was before their ‘take over’. Large staff turnover recently and lots of small changes. My child enjoys her time there and the new staff are nice but the place doesn’t have the same cheerful vibe any more. Prices have increased three or four times over the time we’ve been there (just over a year).
