August 11, 2020 at 12:00 amI cannot praise Big Discoveries enough. My two-year-old and four-year-old both attend and love it. All the ladies are incredible and are always so welcoming. Both my girls love them all. Every day is different and they do so many different fun activities. Lovely enclosed garden for the children to play. My girls cannot wait to get there and play in the mornings. Whilst my girls have a lot of fun playing, they have also come on so much in their development. Wonderful nursery.

August 25, 2020 at 12:00 amMy youngest boy is one of the 2020 school leavers this year and after 3 years he will be very sad to say goodbye. Both of my boys have been with Big Discoveries from the beginning and my eldest left to go to Infant school over 2 years ago but still wants to return and visit the staff at Big Discoveries! They have enjoyed it so much and have came on in leaps and bounds with their development and learning due to the care and consideration of the staff. Big Discoveries have shown such care, consideration, flexibility and understanding over the past 3 years and I cannot recommend them enough. The free flow ethos is evident daily from engaging creative activities inside to the creative learning outside where the children can scooter/cycle, explore nature, play in the mud kitchen or play in a tent! The choice is always on offer!

September 15, 2020 at 12:00 amMy son loves going to Big Discoveries. He has great fun with friends. The staff were quick to discover a budding friendship between my son and a child with a similar temperament. They have since become inseparable which has been wonderful to see. My son loves playing outside (great, spacious and safe outside area) and enjoys planned fun activities learning new things. The nursery is safe and clean, the staff are fantastic and the most important thing is my son is happy.

October 20, 2022 at 12:00 amAmazing ladies, feel so at ease knowing my little girl is left in the care of such friendly kind staff, love seeing what she has been up to on the app. Always seem to be doing new and different activities, all the children always look busy and enjoying themselves and love the space in the garden.

October 28, 2022 at 12:00 amWe moved my daughter from a bigger nursery to here in August 2022 and we are so pleased we did. She was screaming and crying every time she went to nursery and would worry about it on a Sunday night and now she is excited, goes in happy and she loves it. We have seen such a difference in her in the last couple of months, in her happiness and learning she is coming on leaps and bounds since moving, we just wish we had moved her sooner. It’s a lovely nursery and the staff are lovely, the setting is lovely. I would recommend 100% for any child.

October 28, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son currently attends Big Discoveries Nursery and has been here just over a year now. He absolutely loves going to play. He has lots of fun playing in the garden on the bikes, making play dough, reading books, singing, dancing, crafting and lots more. The staff are amazing and really caring. They work really hard to give each child the best experience every day and my son always comes out with a great big smile on his face. They have helped encourage with healthy eating and trying new foods (my son is fussy). The staff have also been great with supporting my son with potty training which has been amazing and together we have mastered it. My son has come a long way in the year he has attended with his learning and thats all thanks to the staff.
The nursery is a safe and clean environment for the children. I highly recommend Big Discoveries – 10/10!

October 28, 2022 at 12:00 amI’d highly recommend Big Discoveries Nursery, both my children attended here. My boy settled quickly after a bad experience elsewhere and my daughter loved every minute she spent there. My daughter still tells me how the teachers are her best friends as they were so fun! My children were both ready when it came to them starting school.

October 31, 2022 at 12:00 amAll the staff at the nursery are loving and supportive. My daughter has been with them for two years now and we’ve never had an issue. My daughter loves her key worker and they have a very special bond. It’s a lovely, safe place for my daughter to grow and learn.

November 11, 2022 at 12:00 amWe opted to transfer our daughter to Big Discoveries Nursery due to location and because we felt her previous care provision wasn’t a great fit for her character. We felt a more open plan child-led environment would be beneficial to her. In our 3 months’ experience, we have been thoroughly impressed. By the staff, their interaction and engagement with the children, and the range of activities. It’s reassuring that our daughter is so keen to attend and is her exuberant self when I pick her up.
We’ve found the communication to be excellent both in-person and via the online journal. We would not hesitate to recommend it.

November 18, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son very much enjoys attending nursery as there are always fun things for them to do. We have found from different activities provided he is always learning something new. The staff are all very welcoming, lovely and very trustworthy. I love that they always put out different snacks for the kids so they are always trying new fruit and veg.

July 25, 2023 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been at Big Discoveries Nursery for just over 3 years now and she has sadly left for primary school in September. In those 3 years, she has enjoyed the most wonderful time, with the most amazing staff! Staff that really take the time to get to know the children as individuals. They were always kind, caring and supportive, not only to our daughter but to us as parents. She has enjoyed the many activities, crafts and unlimited structured and unstructured play that they have offered. Especially enjoying her time spent in the garden and outside space, tending to fruits and vegetables and playing in the mud kitchen. She would always have a fun story to share with us when she came home. I have and will continue to 100% recommend Big Discoveries Nursery to anyone looking for a nursery or preschool.

July 25, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son is so happy at this nursery and has come on leaps and bounds during his time here. I am so pleased with his progress and the ladies that work there are amazing.
I love the outside space for the children and really love getting updates on the app.

July 25, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter is set to leave this term and I cannot express how amazing Big Discoveries Nursery have been with her development. She loves every minute of being there and I know she will truly miss it when she leaves. As a parent all you want is the best for your child- to know they are cared for and that you trust the people looking after them. I truly feel that at Big Discoveries. For the last few years it’s been a pleasure to be part of what they are and stand for. I know they have played a massive part in her readiness for school. Her personality has been encouraged and she really has flourished. So a massive thank you from us!

August 2, 2023 at 12:00 amAs a mother of two children who have attended Big Discoveries one who still attends and a third due to start I can honestly say there is nowhere else I would consider sending my babies. Big Discoveries is such a lovely environment, I chose this nursery as I loved the open setting where the younger and older children can all interact with safe spaces available for babies. The open garden was also a huge plus in our decision-making, all my children love the outdoors so this meant a lot to us that our children would have the opportunity to play outside every day rain or shine. Finally the staff who work at big discoveries are incredible, to say the least! I couldn’t imagine trusting anyone with my 2nd daughter at just 10 months when she started but I could instantly feel the love and care they had for her. The relationships that they have built with my children is amazing – my eldest still loves to pop in for a chat and of course a cuddle or two.
Thank you for being amazing!

August 2, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has attended Big Discoveries Nursery for nearly a year. He has lots of fun playing especially in the garden (the outside space is amazing). The staff are great and come up with such a range of imaginative activities. My son has developed a lot in the year and that’s all thanks to the incredible staff. I would 100% recommend!

August 4, 2023 at 12:00 amWhat a wonderful nursery with fantastic and caring staff! Our son has been through a lot, and we were extremely anxious about him starting nursery, but there is nowhere else we would send him! They are caring, compassionate and, above all, a huge support for our son and us as a family! Both my children have attended Big Discoveries and have seen us through many milestones! They are part of our family, and we are forever grateful for their unconditional love and care for our little ones! Our son has made huge progress, and that is thanks to their continued efforts and commitment! The staff go above and beyond.

August 4, 2023 at 12:00 amI could not recommend Big Discoveries enough. The staff are amazing; they take the time to really get to know and understand your child, and because of this, my children have really flourished. Both my children love going to nursery, and the range of learning opportunities they get is fantastic.
