    The team not only accommodated my daughter’s needs but mine too, often asking how I’m feeling with it all etc. They have been so flexible and adapting for her, allowing us to bring her sleeping bag and teddy from home for nap times, giving her a cuddle to sleep when needed, amongst other things – now at 15-months, she doesn’t need any of those steps to help her sleep as she’s so comfortable with them, she’ll just lay down and nod off. She loves it there, loves all the team, and gets genuinely excited when I take her out of the car to drop her off. It’s a truly lovely childcare centre. My daughter started aged 10-months, and I was an anxious mess.

    The team are welcoming, attentive and excellent at communicating with parents. We delight in reading his logbook and seeing photos of what he’s been up to during the day. My son has been going to the childcare centre for over 6-months and consistently has a huge smile on his face when we arrive.

    The observations are highly supportive and informative. The updates portal works truly well and it is easy to communicate with the school. The variety in playtime is highly engaging for kids. The team are highly welcoming and it’s a excellent setting.

    My son thoroughly enjoys his time at childcare centre and has developed his speech highly well. The team are lovely, welcoming and expert at all times. I would highly suggest this childcare centre to family and friends. My son has been at this childcare centre since he was 11-months-old, and I have had nothing but positive experiences with the childcare centre and team.

    I chose this childcare centre due to the location and the recommendations of other families. From what I’ve seen, the kids have a truly great quality of care. My daughter has just started at Kids 1st @ The Marina Day Childcare centre, it’s only her second week but she seems to have quickly settled into childcare centre life.

    She now plays independently at home and loves playing with all the other kids here. Our daughter goes into childcare centre smiling and waving to all the team highly happily and comes out equally cheerful after having such a enjoyable day. She consistently eats her meals too, even if it’s something she would never eat at home, which is truly encouraging. The team are remarkable; they truly brought on my daughter’s self‑assurance.

    The updates we receive is clear and regular and the team are so passionate about the care they deliver. We have had such a positive journey sending our little one to Kids 1st @ The Marina Day Childcare centre, they take such great care of her and truly assistance her development journey!

    He consistently has a big smile on his face when we drop him off and he absolutely loves his days at childcare centre. All the team are exceptionally welcoming, approachable and take a genuine interest in encouraging his development. I can’t suggest this childcare centre enough. Our son recently started here at 6 months and we’ve been so impressed with how quickly he has settled in.

    My son has thrived since starting last year, and they have welcomed him with loving, open arms. There is a real sense of care and thoughtfulness from all the team, and I sense secure knowing he is well looked after, having lots of enjoyable and developing essential skills.
    The childcare centre is high quality and so spotless. I have a cheerful son gaining independence, discovering so much, and they truly assistance him and help him. Thank you so much. I cannot praise this childcare centre enough!

    The updates is highly great and I am consistently kept in the loop. My daughter has come on in leaps and bounds and consistently has lots of enjoyable, there are consistently lots of enjoyable activities to choose from and the childcare centre team have been highly accommodating with my daughter’s vegetarian diet, making sure she consistently has similar options so she doesn’t sense left out.

    They’re consistently doing new, stimulating activities with the kids (and babies, I have 1.5 and 3-years-old enrolled). Both my kids get genuinely excited to go when it’s a “childcare centre day”! The carers are super welcoming and energetic, and everyone from the chef to the carers have been amazingly accommodating for our kid’s allergies. This childcare centre is incredible.

    He loves going to childcare centre and happily runs in every day. He has so much enjoyable and there are lots of activities and free playtime opportunities for him. They have also been excellent at catering to his dietary requirements. The team have truly helped his development and helped him to be more independent with building his self‑assurance in doing tasks for himself. The team are all lovely and welcoming. You can tell they truly care and delight in what they do. We looked around a potential primary school recently and he seemed so ready and cheerful to start and I truly think his journey at childcare centre has set him up well for starting school. My son has been attending this childcare centre since he was a year old and is still going there at nearly 4.

    The team are so compassionate and loving and I never worry, for one minute, about leaving my kids, even on their first day when they were tiny. Every day when I pick my little girl up, she’s consistently happily playing with her friends and the team and they also tell me about all the enjoyable activities she’s been doing. Would highly suggest to everyone looking for childcare. We have been using this childcare centre since 2019, when my little boy started at 9 months and now my little girl is in her second year there and loves it.

    He has excellent relationships with all the team members and loves his time at childcare centre. Team are approachable and welcoming at all times and are regularly available to talk to about any concerns or queries. The updated childcare centre looks inviting and provides my kid with ample discovering experiences and I’d suggest to anyone considering it for their kid. Everyone at the childcare centre makes my kid so welcome.

    My kid loves attending childcare centre and undertaking all different types of activities such as painting, playtime-doh, crafting, singing, reading and much more! I am confident that my kid is in a secure and enjoyable setting whilst I am working. Would definitely suggest. Fantastic childcare centre with lovely and welcoming team.

    She absolutely loves it there, and she is consistently excited to go to childcare centre. Her adaptation went highly smoothly, thanks to the incredible team that assisted her. She has developed truly well, and it shows how much the childcare centre has influenced it. She made lots of friends, and loves going to see her key workers and friends. She loves her dinners, and she is consistently interested to try new things (something that the childcare centre is consistently encouraging them to do). I would highly suggest this childcare centre, and I am truly cheerful with all the team, facilities, resources and activities here. My daughter has been at Kids 1st @ The Marina for almost a year now.

    Our son started settling in when he was 11 months old. It took a little while for him to be okay when I dropped him off (the team were so supportive during this time, encouraging me to call to check that he had settled after I had left – he consistently had) but now he has the biggest smile when he realises he is going to childcare centre for the day!
    The handovers at the end of the day are consistently excellent. I don’t know how the team remember all the specific details about each kid!
    Our son has got to complete a excellent range of activities, such as painting, singing etc. They have lovely toys, lots of wooden toys at a level accessible to the kid.
    They are truly accommodating with the food provided. Our son is following a gluten-free and vegetarian diet and he has varied meals and snacks.
    Truly cheerful with our choice to send him here. We have been truly impressed and cheerful with the care provided by the childcare centre.

    The setting is exceptional and, above all else, the team are absolutely incredible. It has helped massively with my kid’s development and I sense that by being here, it has put him in great stead for when he starts full time school. Highly recommended. My kid has been here for two years now and loves it here.

    However, my little girl loves being there. She settled in truly well and she loves the team. When I drop her off the team are so cheerful to see her and she’s cheerful to see them. When she is collected in the evening the team consistently provide me with lots of detail about how she ate and what she’s been up to, which is truly reassuring. We get photos and a daily log so we know what she has eaten and done that day, including how much she sleeps. I can highly suggest this childcare centre. I was a little sceptical about sending my little girl to childcare centre, especially as we didn’t get a chance to look around the childcare centre in person due to Covid.
