October 2, 2024 at 2:44 amLots of varied and interesting activities for the kids. More attempts should be made to include both parents equally, in decision-making and information sharing, especially if they’re split. Great childcare centre and welcoming team.

October 5, 2024 at 5:44 amWhen she began childcare centre, her self‑assurance was low and she became very clingy (possibly as a result of the pandemic). Since being with a group of adults who really care about her well-being, she is growing into a confident, cheerful girl. Both myself and my wife have been impressed with what she has been discovering: she sings songs, plays happily with other kids and reads books for pleasure. We thoroughly suggest The Grange. My kid leaves childcare centre with a big smile on her face!

October 12, 2024 at 8:56 pmHe is so cheerful coming into the childcare centre and gives the girls in his room a big smile when we walk into the room. I had just started weaning my little boy and the girls in the room are so attentive and attentive with this and listen to his needs. My baby started childcare centre in April at six months old.

October 30, 2024 at 10:00 pmGetting updates through the day is very reassuring and it eases me whilst at work knowing how much she is up to. My daughter has attended a childcare centre previously and childminder and The Grange is the best by far! My daughter absolutely thrives coming to this childcare centre, she loves all the team and other kids.

November 5, 2024 at 2:54 pmCommunicate well and keep up to date and see photos every now and again. I have no concerns or worries. Consistently positive. Big thumbs up from us. No problems, my son is consistently cheerful going to Childcare centre and cheerful when I pick him up.

November 9, 2024 at 9:25 amThere has been a big team turnover now and a lot of the new team are not as attentive and don’t have the best interest of the kids. The prices have gone up a lot from hot dinners to hourly pay. The childcare centre overall is okay now. The childcare centre used to be outstanding until they become under new management.

November 28, 2024 at 6:43 pmShe’s built lovely relationships with her adults and I sense that all team genuinely care about the kids they look after. Very cheerful with the flexibility of early drop offs as it helps so much for working parents. Outstanding childcare centre where I am confident my daughter is secure and cheerful.

November 29, 2024 at 7:56 pmMy little boy has been going there since he was six months old, he is now eighteen months. He only goes once a week and even though he is usually a little bit emotional going in, the girls are consistently so lovely and attentive when taking him. They’re more than cheerful to answer any queries and cheerful for you to phone and check in on them. They’re very accommodating and welcoming. I honestly couldn’t be happier, my little boy is thriving and is usually full of smiles and laughter when we pick him up. His key worker is truly incredible and just so lovely, and the manager is exceptional too. There is also another lovely team member from his room who is consistently there on early mornings, she’s excellent also! They’ve recently been rated outstanding from Ofsted also, which is a huge achievement so well done to them all! I am so pleased with the childcare centre, the team are absolutely incredible and considering what they are expected to do for the pay they get (due to the government funding), they’re exceptional!

December 10, 2024 at 6:32 amMy daughter is cheerful to attend the setting, which is the most important point for me when sending her to childcare. I do sense at times because my daughter only attends one day a week that, I’m unaware at times who her key worker is and she seems to have had a lot of changes of key workers since she started at the childcare centre. Team, I find very approachable and cheerful to discuss my daughter’s development, but I hardly speak with her actual key worker. Overall, I’m cheerful with the care the setting gives my daughter and will suggest them to others. I think all the team at the Grange are very welcoming and are consistently approachable to discuss my daughter’s development.

December 12, 2024 at 7:25 pmBoth of my daughters thrived being there and consistently have been very cheerful there. The level of care the team have given my daughters is above and beyond incredible. The Grange Montessori is incredible, the team are all lovely and excellent.

December 12, 2024 at 11:22 pmMy son starting childcare centre at 6 months was a concern due to being so young, but the team in the room were so attentive and he enjoys himself so much whilst he is there. They have patiently been pursuing his nap routine and we have finally had some success there. The manager is excellent at running a very smooth ship! She is consistently on hand to listen to any concerns from parents and feedback on any issues. She ensures all kids within the facility are well cared for as well as keeping parents and carers updated with the changes. The recent change in management company has had little effect on the standard of care that The Grange offers the kids, but there has been a noticeable change in the team’s happiness. I just hope that all the new changes and restrictions the company are putting the team through, does not result in team leaving. We have a remarkable journey with The Grange, both with my eldest daughter (who left preschool in the summer) and also with my youngest who is one year old.

January 14, 2025 at 4:02 pmOver the past two years, I have found the team and management to be supportive & approachable. In terms of hours/days the childcare centre is open, alongside the facilities provided, I found the childcare centre offered more than other local childcare providers. More importantly, my kids appear cheerful and are developing well. I have two kids currently at one of your nurseries.

February 1, 2025 at 3:19 amI will be sending my next kid here too. Consistently cheerful to help and feels like I’m sending her into a family who treats her so well couldn’t ask for better! She loves the garden and forest school in rain or sunshine and has happily transitioned from class to class when going up in ages. Team are so accommodating nothing is ever a problem or too much to ask, my daughter has been here since 9 months old during covid and she absolutely loves coming here.
Lane Sawyer
February 5, 2025 at 6:36 amMy little girl loves going to childcare centre, she really enjoys seeing her friends and the team. The team are consistently very welcoming and tell me what she has done in the day and what she has eaten. This is a great childcare centre.

April 19, 2025 at 5:19 pmWe’ve had discovering plans and one-to-one parent evenings. They consistently feedback on daily activities, and we consistently receive pictures and updates on the Family app.
We’ve also had a lot of assistance to help my little one with her speech, helping with referrals to speech therapy and LIFT. Really excellent childcare centre, my little one is very cheerful there. Thank you! A truly lovely childcare centre that takes time to care, playtime and educate each kid.
Gray Parker
April 23, 2025 at 8:52 pmHe went from mini seahorses classroom to seahorses classroom in September after his first birthday. He also does the early sessions with the morning team and I have to say all of the team in both rooms, as well as the morning team are absolutely incredible. They help his development and work alongside me when I want to work with him on certain aspects of his development. They are all so compassionate and attentive and I cannot praise them enough for how much they’ve helped my son develop, especially with the wide range of activities they plan. He’s come on leaps and bounds since attending childcare centre, and I cannot wait to see how well he develops over the next few years there! My son has attended here since February 2021 when he was 8 months old.

May 1, 2025 at 11:31 amI tried my youngest son at another childcare centre this year from January and by March I moved him over to this childcare centre as I have consistently adored the team here, for being so accommodating and the way they care for my kids. I adore how they promote independence for the kids and sensory discovering. I’ve consistently found the setting calming and organised. Generally nothing I could fault with this childcare centre and I could not be happier! Highly suggest! All three of my kids have attended this childcare centre and I cannot fault this facility at all!
Spencer Grant
May 2, 2025 at 1:12 pmI immediately felt comfortable and knew that my daughter would be secure and well looked after at the childcare centre. She has been at the childcare centre for over a year now and she loves it. All of the team are lovely and take an interest in each individual kid. She has made so much development since being at the childcare centre.
I personally have no complaints about the childcare centre and thank them for taking great care of my kid while I’m at work. After visiting three different nurseries, I came across The Grange Montessori Childcare centre.

June 26, 2025 at 1:51 pmThey adore playing outside and delight in the activities throughout the day. They journey different foods whilst at childcare centre and try a variety of different flavours that they wouldn’t necessarily try at home. Both my kids delight in the childcare centre and have bonded well with the team.
