October 31, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son joined the nursery in September, aged 16 months, and was warmly welcomed into the Seedlings room. He settled in immediately and loves attending three days a week. I get regular updates, including pictures about his day, as well as essential information regarding nappy changes and feeding in a timely manner every day. The staff are friendly and welcoming and also give in-depth updates when I collect each day. The nursery offers a wide range of activities each day, including musical masters and playing out in the garden. They also have animals that the children can engage with. The food is varied, and judging from the amount he eats, very enjoyable for my son to eat! The nursery has gone above and beyond already, and I cannot thank them enough. It has been such a relief knowing he is in such capable hands and thriving in their care! Thank you all for everything you do!

October 31, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Blossoms since June 2022. I’ve never been happier than with this nursery and he has tried a couple of places prior. I’ve seen my child grow into a confident and sociable toddler and his learning skills have developed greatly. All the nursery nurses are lovely and always engage with you if you have any concerns or worries. They never make you feel like a burden on their time. The manager is delightful. She can’t do enough to help. Thank you for looking after our child so well for us.

October 31, 2022 at 12:00 amMy child started here in May and settled in so quickly! The staff are so lovely and welcoming and it is evident from the observations and posts that I have access to, that my little girl loves exploring with them. They are very approachable and I enjoy catching up with them of a morning. I spend all day waiting for that moment when I go to collect her and see her little face beam. The members of staff recall her day to me and she spends the whole time smiling and blowing them kisses. I beam with pride as they share this information with me. The staff made sure that they kept in contact with me and reassured me that she was ok when she was settling in. Not only do they provide a warm and stimulating environment for the children – but they also look after us parents and treat us too! We were treated to a week of breakfast and snacks for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, along with some lovely gifts from our daughter. Thank you for creating perfect first-time experiences for our baby!

November 2, 2022 at 12:00 amOur little girl started nursery at Blossoms on The Common Day Nursery back in August. She settled in quickly and despite a few expected tears during the first few sessions, staff quickly put our minds at rest and sent photos and updates to reassure us as to how quickly she settled (usually before I got in the car!).
The staff genuinely care, they understand my daughter’s extra needs and recognise her individual personality whilst still somehow being able to entertain lots of other children!
The food offering is great and adventurous, my little one loves it. The nursery is always clean.
She has had lots of new experiences at nursery and a sign of a good day is when she’s got messy enough to come home in different clothes than what she went in! There is lots of outdoor play which my little girl particularly enjoys. There are also lots of activities which I would not necessarily do with her at home.
The key worker system is great and I have genuine faith in the staff.

January 16, 2023 at 12:00 amBrilliant nursery. Me and my wife saw a few nurseries and then came to Blossoms on the Common and just knew this was the place for my son. Since he been here, he is coming on lovely and he loves going here and he always smiling and laughing. I would recommend anyone looking for a nursery to send their child there. This is the place for them. The staff are brilliant and it’s just a lovely place.

January 16, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son absolutely loves going to Blossoms on the Common! I was so worried about leaving him there, but he has come on leaps and bounds, and the staff were so reassuring, knowing how worried I was, and I am updated throughout the day via the online system. The staff are all incredible, and you can see that they genuinely enjoy their job! They have so many extra activities too, such as dance, rugby and visiting the care home, which is fab.
The best nursery around, without a doubt.

January 16, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little boy started at Blossoms when he was one, and from the very beginning, he settled in really well and took to being there like a duck to water.
The food has always been lovely, with regular menu changes and the day-to-day activities they do, along with celebrating milestones and things throughout the year.
Is fantastic.
He’s now in his last year in pre-school, and the progress in him and the things he learns every day show daily.
The staff are all so lovely, and my little boy had built up some great bonds with them.
Would not want my little boy to have gone anywhere else.

January 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little boy has been at Blossoms on the Common since April 2021. He has thrived under the care of the amazing staff. Now into his third room, we are extremely happy with the care he receives and the way he is being supported in his development. Our daughter is due to start in April and we are so excited for her time at Blossoms. There was never a doubt that she would be following her brother to Blossoms on the Common. Thank you so much!

January 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter’s been at Blossoms since she was a baby and it’s honestly such a lovely nursery. The staff are friendly and always inform you about your child’s day when you pick them up. The nursery app is great as there’s always information about upcoming activities, progress/development, meals and staff training. I always look forward to the regular photos posted too. as you get to see what your child’s been up to with their nursery friends. I travel nearly 30 minutes to the nursery, but it’s definitely worth it!

January 19, 2023 at 12:00 amBlossoms on the Common is a lovely setting. My daughter has been here since May 2022, settled in well and loves it. The staff are amazing, we get updates through the day along with photos, so we can see what she has been doing.

January 19, 2023 at 12:00 amI cannot recommend Blossoms On The Common enough! The nursery has a beautiful environment which is changed every week providing the children with an amazing range of learning, resources and experiences. The staff at the nursery are all amazing. My little boy started in seedlings and they have helped grow and nurture him into a confident little boy. The staff were great at reassuring me he had settled after dropping him off, by updating me on the app, they are more than happy to help with any queries! I love how they have outside agencies come in to provide the children with extra learning opportunities! The Manager is very approachable and always available to speak to if we had any issues! The whole staff team work incredibly hard and I cannot wait to see my little boy grow and develop over his time at Blossoms!

January 30, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has just started going to the nursery and is always happy going there. We have lots of updates and he is always tired when he leaves after having so much fun all day. We are updated with what he eats and nappy changes.

January 30, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter started here in July at 11 months old. All the staff have been fantastic from day one and my little one loves it here. I really worried about her only doing one day a week, but she has settled so well and gets excited about going. Having worked/managed nurseries in the past I thought I would really struggle to find a nursery I loved, however the moment we looked around back in March 2022, we knew this was the perfect place for her! I particularly loved the curiosity approach and it honestly felt like home from home. She has recently transitioned into the next room and she loves that just as much as the baby room, if not more. I can honestly say it was the best decision to send our little girl here. Nothing is ever too much to ask. Thank you, Blossoms!

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amI couldn’t recommend Blossoms on the Common Day Nursery enough. When we went to view it, we instantly loved the homely feeling the nursery had and I genuinely think this helped my son settle in as well as he did – a home away from home. We love how Seedlings (the baby room) feels like someone’s living room – just so welcoming but at the same time full of activities and objects for children to explore which are changed daily and targeted to your child’s individual interests.
The staff here absolutely need to be mentioned. A parent leaving their child somewhere new with strangers is obviously daunting but it really didn’t last long for us here. All staff are so welcoming, calm and enthusiastic – they make you feel like you’ve known them for ages! Daily updates on the app keep you in the loop, involved in children’s progress/interests and generally make you feel at ease. So glad we were lucky to get a place. We can’t wait to see how much our son continues to grow being here. Thank you to all staff!

March 8, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little girl started here last June and absolutely loves it! Her development has come on leaps and bounds since she has been here, she has confidence mixing with other children. I love the fact the nursery feels so homely so it is like home from home for my daughter. The app they use is good to see daily updates and what food she has. The meals provided are all nutritional and have a wide variety! All the staff are so friendly and informative. It is out of my way to bring my daughter here but is so worth it!

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending here since May 2022 and we have been so impressed ever since day one. The staff have been amazing with him – he has built such great relationships with them all (especially his key worker). My son seems to love the curiosity approach and has developed wonderful ways of playing with real-life items, lose parts and loves playing in the garden. The communication between nursery and home is great – I always know exactly what my son has eaten/slept and love to see the photos and videos from all of the activities! The food menu is so varied and has really helped my son like new flavours. I can’t thank Blossoms enough for making it so easy to leave my son and go to work, with no worries whatsoever. I would very highly recommend Blossoms to anyone looking for a nursery!

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Blossoms on the Common Day Nursery for almost 6 months now. She loves her class (seedlings) and can’t wait to see the girls on a Monday morning. She always comes home so happy and has developed so much since starting nursery. The staff are all wonderful at what they do and keep us updated regularly throughout the day when my daughter is there. We couldn’t wish for a better nursery!
