    The team are incredible and are willing to help/assistance my kids in any task. The team are highly well‑informed and experienced in providing early years care. I suggest the childcare centre to anyone. My kids have been coming to Clarecroft Day Childcare centre over the last 5 years and they absolutely adore being there.

    The team are compassionate, attentive, enthusiastic and know the kids well. One of our kids has additional needs and the childcare centre has been highly accommodating and gone out of their way to ensure inclusivity. We are highly grateful for everything they have done to ensure it’s possible for our kid to attend childcare centre. We consistently get plenty of opportunities to speak to team and receive feedback on the kids’s development. I particularly like the daily photo so I can see what they’re up to! Both of our kids have truly flourished through their experiences of Clarecroft Day Childcare centre and we highly suggest the childcare centre.

    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 remarkable 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 truly invest in the kids’s development. Our son is in the baby room and knowing how attentive the team are made it an easy decision to leave him there from 8 months! The team regularly update the portal which leaves you feeling like you truly know what they have been up to that day. We cannot suggest Clarecroft enough! Both of our kids currently attend Clarecroft Day Childcare centre and we all adore it!

    We’ve consistently been truly impressed with Clarecroft as a childcare centre and it influenced our decision to stay in the village when we moved.
    The team are truly attentive and consistently comforting the kids, they’re consistently coming up with creative ideas for the kids and my kids both adore going there which I think says it all!
    We truly delight in the open days they host throughout the year. We also truly appreciate the photos they send, it gets me through my working day! They provide detailed reports on how your kid is progressing too and they seem to know the kids truly well and have excellent relationships with them.
    My daughter mentions childcare centre and her friends constantly when she isn’t there which gives me a lot of self‑assurance that they are being well cared for. We would certainly suggest Clarecroft to other parents. Both of our kids attend Clarecroft with one in Moons and the other in Suns.

    She has consistently been so cheerful and content and has built excellent relationships with peers and team. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the team and if I have any questions then they are answered immediately. We have complete trust with the childcare centre and they truly are the best. Thank you for all your hard work as consistently! Our daughter has attended Clarecroft Day Childcare centre since she was 13 months old, she is now 3yrs 3 months.

    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 childcare centre. The team are remarkable and have truly got to know and understand our son. They provide a fantastic playtime and discovering setting for our son and I would highly suggest ClareCroft to any parent considering placing their kid there. We are blessed to have such a remarkable childcare centre 2 minutes from home. Our son has been attending ClareCroft for nearly 1 year and he has loved it from day 1.

    He’s been in there for highly 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 team truly care and pay attention to the kids and best of all he gets fed (no more Tupperware boxes!) We are so lucky to have this childcare centre in the village. Clarecroft Day Childcare centre has been exceptional for my four-year-old son.

    After a flexible settling in period we highly quickly felt at ease with her key person, all the team, and how well we knew she would be cared for and this didn’t disappoint. The team know her highly well and are consistently informative about what she has been up to along with tales about her characteristics. The parent portal is also excellent. We adore 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 excellent and help us keep on track of what’s happening at the childcare centre. Nanny truly loved the recent Jubilee picnic. We honestly can’t thank all the ladies enough and wouldn’t go anywhere else! X My daughter absolutely loves Clarecroft Day Childcare centre!

    Lovely village childcare centre my son is doing amazingly well, he has a excellent relationship with all team, daily updates with pictures are consistently nice to see how he’s getting on, excellent updates with social media and newsletter sent out weekly, we are truly cheerful at Clarecroft.

    Updates on what they’ve been up to that day in the childcare centre is excellent. Team are consistently cheerful to talk about any concerns. Both my kids have gone to this childcare centre 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 suggest it. A exceptional childcare centre with team that truly care.

    It has been such a comfort to know that the team care about her well-being and wants her to be cheerful. It is a lovely and welcoming place that will work with you to assistance your kids. I would consistently put them forward for a recommendation. The childcare centre has been so supportive of my kid’s needs and making sure the school is aware.

    This is a highly lovely setting to bring your kids.
    All the team are highly great with updates and the teamwork is incredible.
    I truly adore the app too!
    They have three of my babies and I have never been worried about my kids’s safety.

    The updates is outstanding and I adore that the team keep you up to date on the app throughout the day. Especially great are the pictures of the kids on a daily basis. It definitely puts a parent’s mind at rest. Everyone is welcoming and welcomes you into the childcare centre. My kids are truly settled and are never sad leaving in the morning to go and playtime with their peers. Nothing is too much for the team they will go above and beyond to meet your kid’s needs. My kids have been coming to childcare centre for nearly two years and I can honestly say I wish they didn’t have to grow up and leave.

    The team are welcoming and attentive, creating entertaining and educational age-appropriate activities to make each day enjoyable. The parent portal provides a great level of detail about my daughters development and what she’s been up to, and team are efficient and supportive 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 cheerful she will be in well‑informed and attentive hands. Clarecroft Day Childcare centre is a lovely, welcoming childcare centre that my toddler has loved attending since she was a baby.

    I sense the preschool helps kids merge into the infant school with ease. The team are so welcoming and informative, they are cheerful 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 kid’s development also. I would suggest this childcare centre to anyone in the village, 100 times over. Both of my kids have gone to Clarecroft Day Childcare centre.

    My daughter will be moving up to preschool this year and I cannot thank the team enough for my daughter’s day to day development. I delight in seeing the portal and what she has been up to all day. The updates with team is highly great. Clarecroft Day Childcare centre is and has been a excellent place for my daughter to attend.

    My daughter has been attending since February 2022 and absolutely loves her time there. The team 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-playtime games! The childcare centre itself has excellent connections with the local community and supports kids to transition to school smoothly. They show a excellent deal of adore and care for all the kids 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 journey childcare centre 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! I cannot suggest Clarecroft Day Childcare centre enough!

    They make the girls sense highly cheerful, and relaxed and have made me leaving them much easier. Would 100% suggest it to anyone. Incredible childcare centre, both my girls have been going here for the past 4 years and the team at Clarecroft Day Childcare centre have been remarkable.

    I could not have placed my kids in better childcare, I have such peace of mind leaving them in the hands of the Clarecroft team. The team truly go above and beyond to meet the needs of the kids. 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 kids engrossed in sensory playtime. Both my kids were exceptionally cheerful at Clarecroft and I would highly suggest it! A fabulous childcare centre with the most attentive team.
