July 11, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter absolutely loves Clarecroft Day Nursery! After a flexible settling in period we very quickly felt at ease with her key person, all the staff, and how well we knew she would be cared for and this didn’t disappoint. The staff know her very well and are always informative about what she has been up to along with tales about her characteristics. The parent portal is also great. We love seeing photos of her busy during the day along with day to day info such as foods and sleeps. The termly reports and bulletins are also great and help us keep on track of what’s happening at the nursery. Nanny really loved the recent Jubilee picnic. We honestly can’t thank all the ladies enough and wouldn’t go anywhere else! X

July 12, 2022 at 12:00 amA fabulous nursery with the most caring staff. I could not have placed my children in better childcare, I have such peace of mind leaving them in the hands of the Clarecroft staff. The staff really go above and beyond to meet the needs of the children. The food is freshly cooked on-site and varied! My son often talks about how yummy his lunch was. The activities they do on a daily basis are varied and keep the children engrossed in sensory play. Both my children were extremely happy at Clarecroft and I would highly recommend it!

September 5, 2022 at 12:00 amClarecroft Day Nursery is and has been a great place for my daughter to attend. My daughter will be moving up to preschool this year and I cannot thank the staff enough for my daughter’s day to day development. I enjoy seeing the portal and what she has been up to all day. The communication with staff is very good.

September 5, 2022 at 12:00 amClarecroft Day Nursery is a lovely, welcoming nursery that my toddler has loved attending since she was a baby. The staff are friendly and caring, creating entertaining and educational age-appropriate activities to make each day fun. The parent portal provides a good level of detail about my daughters progress and what she’s been up to, and staff are efficient and helpful via phone and email too. The home cooked food offered is varied and has helped my little one explore new tastes. Our second baby will be attending Clarecroft too and we are happy she will be in knowledgeable and caring hands.

September 5, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth of my children have gone to Clarecroft Day Nursery. I feel the preschool helps children merge into the infant school with ease. The staff are so friendly and informative, they are happy to help at any opportunity they can. At the end of the day, we get a formal handover. Using the parent portal throughout the day keeps me up to date with my child’s progress also. I would recommend this nursery to anyone in the village, 100 times over.

September 12, 2022 at 12:00 amI cannot recommend Clarecroft Day Nursery enough! My daughter has been attending since February 2022 and absolutely loves her time there. The staff know her so well and she has a real connection with the ladies – so much so that she will often talk about them at home or include them in her role-play games! The nursery itself has great connections with the local community and supports children to transition to school smoothly. They show a great deal of love and care for all the children and give honest feedback on their behaviour and development. My youngest is due to start in November and I can’t wait for her to experience nursery with her big sister. I have absolutely no concerns over her being there as I know she will be cared for so well! Thank you for the fabulous job you all do Clarecroft ladies!

September 23, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth of our children have really flourished through their experiences of Clarecroft Day Nursery and we highly recommend the nursery. The staff are kind, caring, enthusiastic and know the children well. One of our children has additional needs and the nursery has been very accommodating and gone out of their way to ensure inclusivity. We are very grateful for everything they have done to ensure it’s possible for our child to attend nursery. We always get plenty of opportunities to speak to staff and receive feedback on the children’s development. I particularly like the daily photo so I can see what they’re up to!

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amAmazing nursery, both my girls have been going here for the past 4 years and the team at Clarecroft Day Nursery have been fantastic. They make the girls feel very happy, and relaxed and have made me leaving them much easier. Would 100% recommend it to anyone.

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amClarecroft Day Nursery has been brilliant for my four-year-old son. He’s been in there for very long days and I thought there would be whinging every morning about going. He bounces in and bounces out, absolutely loves it. They keep him engaged all day, you can tell the staff really care and pay attention to the children and best of all he gets fed (no more Tupperware boxes!) We are so lucky to have this nursery in the village.

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amMy children have been coming to Clarecroft Day Nursery over the last 5 years and they absolutely adore being there. The staff are amazing and are willing to help/support my children in any task. The staff are very knowledgeable and experienced in providing early years care. I recommend the nursery to anyone.

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth of our children currently attend Clarecroft Day Nursery and we all love it! We moved our daughter from another setting that she had been in for 2 years which was a daunting decision to make. The ladies did a fantastic job welcoming her into the preschool and she was fast to adjust to the new setting and routine. Since attending she has flourished and we are so grateful for all they do. Clarecroft feels like a home from home and the ladies really invest in the children’s development. Our son is in the baby room and knowing how caring the staff are made it an easy decision to leave him there from 8 months! The staff regularly update the portal which leaves you feeling like you really know what they have been up to that day. We cannot recommend Clarecroft enough!

February 6, 2023 at 12:00 amThis is a very lovely setting to bring your children.
All the staff are very good with communication and the teamwork is amazing.
I really love the app too!
They have three of my babies and I have never been worried about my children’s safety.

March 9, 2023 at 12:00 amLovely village nursery my son is doing amazingly well, he has a great relationship with all staff, daily updates with pictures are always nice to see how he’s getting on, great communication with social media and newsletter sent out weekly, we are really happy at Clarecroft.

June 13, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth of our children attend Clarecroft with one in Moons and the other in Suns.
We’ve always been really impressed with Clarecroft as a nursery and it influenced our decision to stay in the village when we moved.
The staff are really caring and always comforting the children, they’re always coming up with creative ideas for the kids and my children both love going there which I think says it all!
We really enjoy the open days they host throughout the year. We also really appreciate the photos they send, it gets me through my working day! They provide detailed reports on how your child is progressing too and they seem to know the children really well and have great relationships with them.
My daughter mentions nursery and her friends constantly when she isn’t there which gives me a lot of confidence that they are being well cared for. We would certainly recommend Clarecroft to other parents.

June 13, 2023 at 12:00 amOur daughter has attended Clarecroft Day Nursery since she was 13 months old, she is now 3yrs 3 months. She has always been so happy and content and has built great relationships with peers and staff. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the staff and if I have any questions then they are answered immediately. We have complete trust with the nursery and they really are the best. Thank you for all your hard work as always!

June 28, 2023 at 12:00 amOur son has been attending ClareCroft for nearly 1 year and he has loved it from day 1. Most days at drop off he is so eager to get involved that he usually does not look back or even say goodbye, as he is more interested in getting onto the next adventure in the nursery. The staff are fantastic and have really got to know and understand our son. They provide a wonderful play and learning environment for our son and I would highly recommend ClareCroft to any parent considering placing their child there. We are blessed to have such a fantastic nursery 2 minutes from home.

July 4, 2023 at 12:00 amThe nursery has been so supportive of my child’s needs and making sure the school is aware. It has been such a comfort to know that the staff care about her well-being and wants her to be happy. It is a lovely and welcoming place that will work with you to support your children. I would always put them forward for a recommendation.

July 4, 2023 at 12:00 amMy children have been coming to nursery for nearly two years and I can honestly say I wish they didn’t have to grow up and leave. The communication is excellent and I love that the staff keep you up to date on the app throughout the day. Especially good are the pictures of the children on a daily basis. It definitely puts a parent’s mind at rest. Everyone is friendly and welcomes you into the nursery. My children are really settled and are never sad leaving in the morning to go and play with their peers. Nothing is too much for the staff they will go above and beyond to meet your child’s needs.

July 6, 2023 at 12:00 amA brilliant nursery with staff that really care. Communication on what they’ve been up to that day in the nursery is great. Staff are always happy to talk about any concerns. Both my children have gone to this nursery and have loved it! They still talk to my oldest now like he’s part of their family and he loves it! I would highly recommend it.
