    They are compassionate patient and encouraging. He loves going in every day and comes home telling me what enjoyable they had, each week they learn something new and their recent activity of watching caterpillars turn into butterflies has been one of his favourites.
    Well done to the team and thank you for their continued assistance. All team at The Early Years Day Childcare centre are excellent with my son.

    Now we are all back to childcare centre again, my daughter is 3 years old. She can speak English and the team make her sense great there. In this childcare centre, kids sense they are at home. The childcare centre is small and makes the kids sense special. I would suggest this place in all aspects. My daughter started The Early Years Day Childcare centre when she was nine months old and the settling in was so quick and that is because the team were taking extra care over the small details of my kid.

    My son went here for 4 years and my daughter has been here for the last 2 years. A home from home feeling. My kids have been so cheerful here. The team are so welcoming and compassionate and the owner cannot do enough for you. A little gem of a childcare centre! We couldn’t have picked a better childcare centre!

    I cannot suggest this childcare centre highly enough. The team are incredible and absolute experts in all areas of childcare. They helped me to get my daughter to vary her diet, learn the necessary social skills and hit every development milestone. My daughter is going to school shortly and I will be so upset to say goodbye to the team, kids and the overall setting. The owner is phenomenal and really cares about all the kids and knows them all personally. She also knows all the parents. It is a secure setting with a perfect outdoor playtime area, due to the huge playing fields. Overall, I have absolutely loved this childcare centre and the team, parents and kids have all been so lovely and inviting. I wish them all the best of luck and would have no hesitance in recommending it to anyone with small kids. Thanks to everyone at the Early Years for your care and all your efforts. My daughter has been at the childcare centre since she was a few months old.

    My kid very much enjoys his time there. His speech has developed greatly since he started and his self‑assurance now is allowing him to learn and explore. Remarkable Childcare centre.

    We are thrilled with how much our son has developed since joining Early Years Day Childcare centre and has achieved many excellent milestones. The team are stellar and go above and beyond their job. Excellent outdoors, fresh and nutritious food but most of all it has the most welcoming sense. We are extremely cheerful with the all-round development of our son. He is growing to be an active, balanced and confident kid. We couldn’t have chosen a better childcare centre and highly suggest Early Years Day Childcare centre to any parent. The childcare centre is an outstanding centre for early discovering and provides an intellectually stimulating setting that is balanced with playtime-time activities.

    My son loved his educators. Everyone were very welcoming and creative, I was amazed about the things they have done at the time when my son was there. Now he is in reception year at school and he feels very confident when studying. He has very great behaviour, very great English (we speak a different language at home). He was very well prepared for the big school, this was very important for us. It is a small childcare centre, and it feels like home. The owner is exceptional and loves being with the kids and teaching them. The meals are cooked there and they can have as much as they want and it is consistently hot and fresh. They have a big playground and a huge field to explore.
    In brief, I loved everything about this childcare centre. I loved everything about this childcare centre.

    The team are like family. The kids interact with each other as a community. The open space outside feels like you are in the countryside, and the kids can take long walks exploring nature. The activities are very creative, and it is easy to engage with the educators as they are compassionate and open. The Early Year Day Childcare centre is a lovely setting for the kids.

    The educators and the directors, whom kids call Grandma and Grandpa are just the best at the job they are doing. For my kids and also for me, the carer for my little one is the greatest gift at the childcare centre. She taught and gave my daughter as much attention as she needed and cared about her and other kids as much as she could. My daughter loves her to bits and says only the best things about her. Now my second daughter attends the childcare centre too and she loves it as well. I cannot wait until my son will start the childcare centre as well next year. I am recommending the childcare centre to everyone that asks about it. Five stars plus more for the Early Years Day Childcare centre. I could not be happier with the decision I made 2.5 years ago when my daughter started the childcare centre.

    Both are keen to go and spend the time with the childcare centre team and friends, they are attentive and have the best interest for the kids. Though they are not a pre-school, they help prepare the kids for school: hand washing, toilet ready, dressing up on their own, reading and writing alphabet/numbers depending on the kid’s pace, reading and writing their name. We sense they have been really great with our eldest son and challenged him more than we anticipated in a positive way. What remains challenging is updates: wanting to know more about the kid’s development. We had to request a meeting instead of it being organised/proposed in advance. We have both our kids attending the childcare centre (aged 4 and 2 years) and we are generally very cheerful.

    He has attended for the past 3 and a half years since he was a baby. He has enjoyed going to the childcare centre and been really cheerful here. When we were potty trained him at home the childcare centre supported this when he was there and it was a excellent joint effort. He engaged in various activities to develop his skills and generally have enjoyable! He often came home with stories of what he had learnt as well as pieces of artwork he had produced. He really enjoyed the food and complimented the chef often at home. The team and managers are really welcoming and supportive and I felt confident leaving my son with them as they are compassionate and considerate towards kids. There are regular events and celebrations parents are invited to attend such as sports day and a Christmas party. My son made lots of friends. My husband and I highly suggest this childcare centre as does my son! My son left this childcare centre today as he starts school in September.

    It feels like home from home. The team are fantastic, most of them mothers themselves and our daughter has a lovely bond with them all. Although not a large childcare centre with one main room the childcare centre garden is set within a playing field and it feels as if you’ve escaped to the country. Meals are prepared on-site, which include a mix of variety and flavours. Our daughter will soon be moving out of the baby room and into the main pre-school room. We are so cheerful to have stumbled across such a fantastic childcare centre.

    The team are all really nice, take care of the kids well and form a bond with them. This was our first childcare centre and their efforts to help settle my daughter at a slightly older age than the norm were exceptional. She developed updates skills and also learnt to mix with her peers. I felt she flourished. Lovely childcare centre.
