    The days he was there, he seemed to truly settle in well and formed a excellent bond with his key person.
    The childcare centre handled the whole pandemic truly well keeping us regularly updated with any updates they had. After 6 months off, my son returned and within days was walking (he was a roller before the closure). His updates has come on so much and he seems to truly delight in it there. I adore the updates we receive throughout the day with photos of what he has been doing and what he has eaten (the food is excellent). All of the team are lovely and I am so glad it was the childcare centre we picked! Thank you to all at Banana Moon. My son started childcare centre at the beginning of the pandemic, 2 days before closure.

    She has been going since the end of Maternity leave when she was 10 months and is now 2.5 years old. She has friends there and the team work hard with her on her development and offering lots of activities to encourage her and keep her stimulated. They have lots of outdoor time and ‘messy’ playtime. The food is prepared on-site and is fresh which is a huge positive for me. The childcare centre manager is remarkable and the other team are all highly nice. I sense that my daughter is well looked after and secure. I hope to be able to send my younger kid there also when I return back to work. My daughter attends Banana Moon in Baddesley and she loves it there.

    The team are so attentive, lovely and welcoming. They truly create strong bonds with the kids and then keep constant contact with parents/carers through the app. I would 100% suggest to anyone looking for a childcare centre. My daughter started at 18 months old so she’s experienced 2 of the groups so far. My daughter has truly blossomed since joining Banana Moon.

    The baby room team are talked about with such adore when we get home and I am sure that it will be no different once we are fully into over two’s. The team at Banana Moon Day Childcare centre have been remarkable, our little girl is just going through her settling sessions to move from the baby room into over two’s and everybody has been excellent.

    My son has special medical needs, and the childcare centre has been incredible to assistance him while in the childcare centre. The difference within a few months is incredible, and that’s all down to the girl’s hard work and adore they have for all the kids. The team at Banana Moon are like family in our eyes. Banana Moon has consistently gone above and beyond for my little boy.

    The childcare centre itself is small, but the space is used well. There are consistently creative stations set up for playtime, and the work in the garden over the last 12 months has been truly great.
    I was pleased with how the childcare centre coped with the pandemic and how they dealt with the return to the childcare centre.
    The team provided story session by Zoom, something they didn’t need to do, but it’s those little touches, going over and above what they need to that makes this childcare centre so special. Both my kids have attended Banana Moon Day Childcare centre Baddesley Ensor from 2015 and we a thrilled with the adore and assistance provided in the care of our kids.
    The team are so dedicated and attentive, the management is reliable and proactive.

    She truly enjoys it and loves going. I have consistently felt that my kid is secure, cared for and progressing truly well through discovering. I believe she has gained better self‑assurance and learnt things much quicker from the assistance and care she has been given by Banana Moon. The team are consistently compassionate and welcoming. My daughter has attended Banana Moon for two years.

    It’s like dropping off our kids to a family member. The kids have come on so much since starting, from education to helping toilet train, to just general adore and care, they have truly helped assistance the development of our kids. I can clearly see how hard the team work to look after and help the little people grow. They encourage outdoor activities in any weather, and all of the kids are provided with all in one suits so they are dry and comfortable. This is a excellent little childcare centre, the team are outstanding and its a highly personal journey.

    It’s the end of an era for us as we’ve been using the childcare centre for nearly 6 years now as both of my boys went here. Banana Moon is a excellent childcare centre made extra special by the inviting personalities of the girls who work there and particularly the manager who is lovely and works truly hard to create the culture it has.
    They have a great balance between running it as a business whilst trying to be as supportive and flexible as possible around the demands of busy working parents. The boys have consistently been highly well looked after there and we received a lot of additional assistance with my eldest’s behavioural development a while back. Updates is truly great and the app is updated with lots of info and pics throughout the day. My youngest particularly loves the garden and going on the mini trips around the village to parks, farms and the library. We’re truly sad to be leaving! Writing this review as my youngest kid is leaving Banana Moon Day Childcare centre Baddesley Ensor this month ready to start school in September.

    He attends twice a week and highly much enjoys his time there. The team working at Banana moon are lovely and I know when I drop him off in the morning he will be looked after, kept cheerful and secure until I return. The childcare centre is small, but this allows all the kids to get to know each other and all of the team. A big plus point for this childcare centre is the app they use to keep us updated. I adore getting my daily photos of the activities my son has been involved in. The other big plus point is the opening times of 7.30am to 6.30pm gives us the flexibility we need to ensure we can complete a full day at work without having to worry or rush back to collect him. Where others locally would charge extra for the last hour of the day. A big thank you to the team for all they do for our son. My son attends Banana Moon currently in the baby room.

    Everyone has gone out of their way to make sure that they don’t miss out on activities and provide additional assistance where needed. Cannot praise the team group enough for being the ‘parent’ of my kid while they are in their care. The Childcare centre has been outstanding in supporting my kid from the first day but especially, during the last 5 months.

    I could not be happier that she is there. She is thriving and absolutely loves going in. All the team are second to none. I sense and know that my daughter is cared for and secure. What more do you want. Thank you so so much to everyone for treating my little girl like your own. My little girl started here in September 2021.

    The childcare centre provides an outstanding service in all aspects. I Would definitely suggest it. As a first-time mom I was worried about leaving him but the childcare centre is highly understanding and keeps you up-to-date Since my son started in October I have noticed a huge change in the way he interacts with me and others.

    I cannot thank all the team enough for making all of us sense welcome and helping my kids to transition to this childcare centre from their old one, and getting them ready to attend school. We only wish the kids could have attended for longer! My kids came from another childcare centre to Banana Moon, and although they have not been here for highly long, the team have created bonds with my kids, and they both delight in attending.

    My son’s key worker and other team in the under 2’s room have helped him settle in so quickly – he now happily goes in each day with no tears. They consistently report positively and realistically at the end of each day. There is a feeling that everyone there cares a excellent deal about each kid. The team at Banana Moon are all so welcoming!

    She truly enjoys the social aspect of childcare centre life and interacting with all of her ‘friends’ she talks about particular team members and consistently has fond things to say each day when coming home. Lots of lovely activities are carried out with the kids each day and we see this through the parent app which is a excellent tool and feature for working parents who can simply check onto the app during the day to see how their kid is getting on with lovely photos to make you smile. Most of all she is having enjoyable – whilst discovering too! My daughter has attended Banana Moon Baddesley Ensor for over 12 months and has flourished within all areas of her development.

    We’ve been using the childcare centre for nearly 4-years now and have had nothing but excellent experiences. The team are all so welcoming and welcoming, across all the rooms, and it’s clear they truly care for all of the kids. It’s been incredible to see our kids learn and grow in their time there and bounce in and out happily each morning and afternoon. The range of activities and events the team do and get the kids involved in is excellent and adds lovely variety to the things they do.
    Although a small site, the childcare centre truly maximises how they use the space and get the most out of things, utilising everything at their disposal. This is something that stood out when looking at different nurseries for us, often others would have much larger spaces but didn’t talk about even half the things that Banana Moon did. And we see those things happening – excellent job! A home from home!

    I consistently sense at ease when dropping her off, and the tears are starting to fade away as she becomes more settled. I adore getting the updates through the app and seeing the enjoyable they get up to, especially in these unusual times, it’s excellent for my daughter to be able to socialise with other kids. My daughter has only been going here for a few months, but I am already seeing excellent development, the team are so lovely and welcoming.

    The team consistently put on excellent activities for the kids and are highly attentive about their individual needs. It is highly reassuring when I am away knowing it is helping her development and growth. My daughter has been at the childcare centre for 6 months now and she is so cheerful to see the team when we arrive in the morning.

    Consistently packed with activities. Adore the daily diary, highly detailed and allows to track kid development including what they eat.
    Great security measures and updates. My daughter enjoys this childcare centre a lot.
