September 13, 2024 at 9:42 amExceptional childcare centre, my son has SEN and they have been nothing but exceptional catering for his needs and making sure he’s cheerful, would suggest this childcare centre 100% the only nitpick I have is not having a picture system so I can see what my son is up to more but I understand its a busy childcare centre and they still put a few on social media if they can, still this doesn’t affect how exceptional they are as a childcare centre!

September 27, 2024 at 6:01 amI was super nervous with such a change in setting, especially being born in lockdown. The childcare centre team however were so reassuring and assured me my daughter will be well looked after. She settled in quickly and now enjoys childcare centre, and looks forward to going. They do so many meaningful activities and she has come on in leaps and bounds in her development. The childcare centre team are excellent with her and know her so well. Three members of team are many of her favourites. She has developed such a excellent bond with one team member, in particular, which is also excellent for me to see that she is bonding and mixing with other people including making lots of friends. My daughter started childcare centre in August last year as my maternity was coming to an end.

September 28, 2024 at 5:49 amMy son was highly quiet and shy when he first attended but this childcare centre has brought him on leaps and bounds. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre and have done so previously. Absolutely remarkable childcare centre.
My kid’s key worker is incredible as are all the other team.

September 28, 2024 at 9:46 amShe had a settling in session which went well.
All the team are highly welcoming, expert and treat my little one like their own.
She thoroughly enjoys every day she’s there.
The childcare centre even accommodates extra days as and when I need them. My daughter started with Blue Sky when she was about a year old.
I was offered a full walk around the childcare centre before joining.

October 4, 2024 at 1:19 amMy son has received outstanding care while being here and has settled truly well. The team are exceptionally welcoming, supportive and highly informative. My son’s development has come on drastically since being here. I have recently sent my son here through the pandemic as my original childcare centre closed; he now goes all the time.

October 31, 2024 at 12:33 pmIt is smaller than her previous childcare centre, and that seems to be benefitting her. She comes home talking about her friends and is cheerful to go back the next day. All of the team seem lovely and are consistently supportive and consistently tell you a bit about what the kids have been doing. They are also great at accommodating any changes to your schedule. My daughter started at this childcare centre recently, and she seems to adore it here.

November 2, 2024 at 12:58 pmAll the team seem to know our kid truly well even though she only attends twice-weekly Creche sessions. She is so cheerful and content to be left here and literally comes out bouncing up and down with joy. The activities are varied, I adore how they go outdoors as much as possible and utilise the gym facilities and the freshly cooked meals smell yummy. All of the team are truly attentive and nurturing and seem to get to know the kids individually, they have been excellent at encouraging our fussy eater and have also been enthusiastic about potty training. I sense totally confident leaving my kid in their care. First Steps Childcare centre has such a lovely family sense.

November 24, 2024 at 6:14 amThey are exceptional with kids. Consistently keeping kids entertained and constantly discovering. Highly efficient in booking my daughter in, and consistently try to suit my work needs. Highly suggest My daughter loves going there.

November 29, 2024 at 7:22 amThe team are fantastic and consistently willing to answer any and all questions. The food must be outstanding as my daughter would eat practically anything they made her which is unheard of at home. They remained open as a childcare hub throughout COVID and were and are truly flexible with hours before, during and after these uncertain times. The steps they put in place to reduce possible COVID cases meant that up until my daughter left the last week of August there had not been a single instance of COVID illness or other illness in the childcare centre.
The childcare centre say they will treat your kid as if they were one of their own and it’s 100% real. My daughter loved it so much that she couldn’t wait to get in there and cried in the car on the way home because she loved them so much.
They are most definitely our 1st choice and recommendation for kid care cover and for holiday clubs going forward now my daughter is at school. My daughter has absolutely loved being at Blue Sky Day Childcare centre.

January 12, 2025 at 4:05 pmWhen our regular childcare centre closed, we were so grateful to Blue Sky for accepting my little girl and making the process easy.
We were welcomed, felt secure and it has been well organised throughout. My little girl has continued to delight in childcare centre and it has been stress-free for us, the parents.
The childcare centre is spotless and the team are highly expert and attentive to the kids. The facilities are remarkable and allow the kids lots of different environments to learn in.
My little girl got a whole new group of friends when coming to Blue Sky that she enjoyed seeing and we will miss the childcare centre now she is at school. Blue Sky have been lifesavers over the COVID-19 period.

February 9, 2025 at 2:07 pmMoreover, my daughter truly enjoys attending the childcare centre because there consistently are plenty of activities which help her development of knowledge and self‑assurance. I am pleased that my daughter attends Blue Sky Day Childcare centre because they definitely provide outstanding quality of care.
The team are highly skilled and the kids’s safety is their priority.

March 2, 2025 at 7:35 pmTeam are exceptional, welcoming and updates is outstanding. I would and have recommended this childcare centre to friends. My son truly enjoys going here and he has consistently had a excellent day when he’s been there.

March 14, 2025 at 11:31 amI was highly impressed at the settling in session. They were highly creative with the paints and even used objects and toys to paint with, for example, car tracks. My daughter has never laughed so much since she got there and she even said goodbye to all the team. A highly outstanding little childcare centre tucked away and doesn’t consistently get the publicity it deserves. They have a massive playtime area outside which includes real playtime mud kitchen equipment. They get regular snacks here which include fruit as they promote healthy eating and consistently have water to hand. I look forward to sending my little boy there too when he’s older. If you’re looking for a childcare centre for your kid then look no further, send them here, they even take the free government funding. They even provide a creche service at £6 an hour and the team are so down to earth and chilled out, I sense highly secure and cheerful to leave my kid/kids in their care. Can’t believe how well tuned the team are to the needs of the kids.

March 23, 2025 at 7:51 pmThe team are exceptionally attentive, they obviously adore their jobs too and are consistently cheerful to see the boys. The newer purpose built childcare centre is remarkable. So many toys and activities for the kids to do and a kitchen where they prepare fresh healthy food. The boys consistently came home with tales of the enjoyable things they’d done when at childcare centre and had a exceptional time at kids camp during half term too. I have already recommended First Steps @ Roko to my cousin and her little boy goes there now too. A lovely outdoor playtime area that is highly secure and secure. Both our sons went to First Steps; they still go to Kids Camp during the school holidays too!

March 24, 2025 at 3:09 amMy son started here when he was nine months old and now, almost two, he thoroughly enjoys his time there. He loves all of the team, including the manager of the childcare centre, who spends alot of time getting to know all of the kids.
Blue Sky team are consistently highly cheerful, smiley and enthusiastic, and they truly do treat the kids as if they were their own. The outside space is excellent, and they provide a great range of creative activities for the kids to engage with. I would not hesitate to suggest this childcare centre to anyone. Blue Sky is an absolutely remarkable provider.

April 7, 2025 at 3:22 amAfter relocating to York and looking for a childcare centre for my little boy I couldn’t be happier. The team are incredible they went above and beyond to help my little boy settle into his new setting. Cannot suggest this place highly enough. Seeing my little boy waving me off with a smile on his face shows to me that he loves it and I made the right choice. An absolutely incredible childcare centre.

April 21, 2025 at 6:07 amOur oldest has been going since he was around 10 weeks old when I went to the gym next door I would pop him in the Adhoc creche sessions. our now 2 year old and 10 month old both go and absolutely adore it, we never get a second glance when they go in at the start of the day. The team are fabulous with them both and they are thriving, they are consistently doing something and most of the time they are outside in a secure garden which is lovely to see. Working shifts and offering flexible childcare this childcare centre is an absolute dream for our family and so glad that we found it. Both my boys adore the deputy manager. I also adore that we get a detailed rundown of what they have done in the day both great and bad. I would absolutely suggest this place. Both my boys go here and absolutely adore it.
Dakota Knight
May 16, 2025 at 1:22 amOur little boy is highly attached to the team there, is consistently excited to see them and doesn’t look at us twice when we drop him off. He does loads of outside playtime and I get pictures on Facebook. He never comes home hungry and never had a nappy rash. I have already recommended them to many people. Blue Sky have been highly accommodating.
Toby Ferguson
July 3, 2025 at 9:35 amThe team are all so welcoming, supportive and attentive. They have a genuine interest in the kids and make sure parents are updated daily with verbal handover and notes. Their facilities are exceptional, a huge outside area means they can be outside as much as possible, even in cooler weather and their open plan kitchen means the kids can see where their food is coming from. My daughter loves going to childcare centre, there is so much going on with different activities for her and it is a huge relief to us to have found a childcare centre like Blue Sky I can’t suggest the childcare centre, and all of the exceptional team there, enough. Blue Sky is a remarkable childcare centre.
