    My daughter started to go from ten months old, which despite my son already attending I was worried about due to her being under one year. The baby room is so nurturing and my daughter settled really well. All team form strong bonds with your kids and are really cared for. My son has made some excellent friendships and I have seen him come on leaps and bounds in his development at Butterfly. Butterfly has a remarkable outside space and kids have the opportunity to spend time outside discovering and exploring. Key workers have been so remarkable at developing my kids and supporting their discovering. Thank you all so much for what you do! Both my kids attend Butterfly Childcare centre.

    They have supported both my girls and the team are so welcoming and compassionate. A very cheerful mother indeed. Both my kids have gone to Butterfly Childcare centre and we have had the most positive incredible journey with them.

    Management are welcoming and approachable with quick response times to questions. I delight in receiving snapshot updates of my son’s time at childcare centre. My son loves being part of the Butterfly Childcare centre family, he talks fondly of the team and his friends there. I sense he is secure and very well cared for. The team at butterfly childcare centre are consistently smiley, inviting and supportive.

    I couldn’t suggest the childcare centre enough and I am sad to say goodbye. My daughter has left having made some lovely friends, is confident and has learnt so much and has enjoyed every moment. As a parent, it’s so hard going back to work, feeling guilty etc, but it’s helped how much she has loved the journey. Thank you all so much x My daughter started as a baby and has flourished in a lovely childcare centre with incredible team, that really care.

    Our little one has gone to Butterfly on several occasions from the age of four months onwards for drop and go sessions and we have consistently been very cheerful with the care provided. The team are welcoming and welcoming and consistently seem organised and efficient. Our kid has consistently seemed cheerful and well-cared-for, encouraged to eat and drink well and the team are excellent at sticking to the baby’s usual routine. He sleeps much better at childcare centre than at home. It has been a real life-line for us without any family living close by to help out and we would suggest it to anyone. Outstanding childcare centre.

    The team are welcoming and attentive. They engage the kids in a variety of interesting activities and encourage messy playtime. Both of my kids loved playing in the large outdoor space where they could help with planting, use scooters or practice their baking skills in the mud kitchen. I loved the inviting family atmosphere in the childcare centre and felt the team consistently had my kids’s best interests at heart. I highly suggest this childcare centre. Both of my daughters attended Butterfly Childcare centre and loved every minute of their time there.

    My kids absolutely adore attending this childcare centre and are consistently eager to spend the day at childcare centre. The childcare centre use a exceptional app to regularly send photos and updates, throughout the day. Thank you. Remarkable, attentive, informative team.

    Due to COVID-19 our boys had to move childcare centre (which is consistently an apprehensive time). However, they settled within a week which is all down to the team – they are inviting, nurturing and welcoming – everything you’d want for your kids. We have been so impressed. The boys are eager to go to childcare centre every day and come home with stories about their friends, educators and all the enjoyable they have. The boys eat well whilst they are there, with my youngest often eating two helpings. I have found the childcare centre excellent in terms of flexibility – when we needed to up our days, the manager accommodated us straight away. My eldest is due to start big school next month and I know that he’ll really miss Butterfly childcare centre. I can’t suggest Butterfly Childcare centre enough.

    They have nurtured and taught both my kids so much. My eldest has just left to start school and she transitioned so well into school, which is mostly down to how prepared she was by everyone at Butterfly Childcare centre. My son, who has another year at childcare centre, has developed so quickly with his speech and self‑assurance. A remarkable childcare centre and we are so glad we sent our kids there. My kids have been at this childcare centre for about eight months and as a family, we’ve all loved Butterfly Childcare centre.

    The team are all remarkable and I sense like they have really helped in getting him ready for school. He will be sad to leave at the end of August, thank you for everything. My son has been at Butterfly Childcare centre for a year and he’s flourished and grown so much.

    Then I visited Butterfly with her, and from the very first moment, we could see how different the atmosphere is there. Since then, my daughter is the first one to ask when she is going to Butterfly, full of enthusiasm. Also, I could see how quickly her development was as English isn’t our first language at home. I used to say that attending Butterfly Childcare centre was the best thing that happened to my daughter. When we moved into Hove, my daughter didn’t settle in the first childcare centre we tried.

    The team are remarkable, very supportive and welcoming. They keep you up to date on your kid’s development and there’s consistently enjoyable things going on that get the kids excited. One of my kids is a very anxious kid and they really helped her to sense secure and cheerful. Both finished very ready to start school, thanks to everyone at Butterflies! Both of my kids have attended Butterfly Childcare centre and have loved it!

    It’s incredible not having to worry about my kids when they are at childcare centre.
    I’ll suggest Butterfly Childcare centre over and over again. A big thank you to you all for the great work you are doing. Both my kids started going to this childcare centre when they were about 7 months old and now one has just started school.
    The team and facilities are outstanding, welcoming setting, very flexible team, I couldn’t have wished for a better childcare centre for my kids.
    My kids come home talking about the team all the time.

    My daughter was very cheerful there and I would suggest it to anyone. All the team are loving, attentive and expert. I never worried about my daughter’s safety. Butterfly Childcare centre is a fantastic place for kids to grow, learn and make friends.

    The team are super attentive and positive. My kid consistently goes in so cheerful and comes home bussing with all the things he’s done that day. Management are excellent too, consistently so supportive if I have any trouble with payment and being flexible with any extra days needed. I would highly suggest this childcare centre.

    She has loved every minute of her childcare centre journey. The team are exceptional and have helped her grow into a confident little girl. Throughout Covid, the team stayed in contact, keeping up to date with her development and staying open for those who needed to attend. The care my daughter received was top quality. She is going to miss childcare centre and everyone there when she starts school.
    Highly suggest this childcare centre. My daughter has been at Butterfly Childcare centre since September 2009.

    Both my kids have attended this childcare centre from the age of 6 months and sadly the youngest is now leaving to go to school. I cannot fault the team here, they will be sorely missed. They are so attentive and attentive towards the kids, who have loved going and I’ve felt so comfortable leaving them there. Updates has consistently been excellent, and they are consistently so accommodating with the days I’ve needed. I get frequent updates on what the kids have been doing throughout the day and it’s consistently nice to see pictures on the app they use. Excellent outdoor space and lots of outdoor playtime! Thank you all so much. I cannot suggest enough!

    They are flexible and baby-centred. The team are consistently welcoming and genuinely seem to care about the kids they work with. They let siblings be together if needed which enables a smoother transition for all. They are responsive and flexible offering drop-in sessions for ad-hoc childcare needs. Overall they offer everything you could want or need for your kid – a secure, attentive and nurturing setting and later an educative enjoyable space to prepare your kid for school Butterfly is a remarkable childcare centre.

    He consistently had a great time, made plenty of friends, and came home cheerful. Team have consistently been attentive and cheerful to help at all times. Butterfly Childcare centre has a great outside space with plenty of different activities and in the summer months kids spend a great amount of time outside running around. The childcare centre has reasonable rates, long opening hours and offers time term only care which was really supportive for us. I felt confident leaving my kid there knowing that he was secure and cheerful. The childcare centre didn’t offer day trips, forest school, art teacher, language classes etc, which was the one negative compared to other nurseries. Our son attended Butterfly Childcare centre for a year and a half before leaving to start school.

    She made many great friends and all the team were fantastic. They all treat the kids with such care and attention, and the affection between the team and the kids is palpable. Our daughter grew and learned hugely through the nurturing she received at Butterfly. The team were supportive and welcoming whenever we needed to speak to them or ask anything and consistently had our daughter’s best interests at heart, working hard, even when it inconvenienced them, to ensure she got the best care and assistance. Our daughter found Butterfly to be a fantastic journey.
