September 8, 2024 at 2:36 pmHe has come so far in such a short space of time we are really cheerful with his development. Excellent team and part of our family! Thanks to all the team at Gelston! Our little boy absolutely loves every day at Gelston Manor!

September 19, 2024 at 10:27 amThe girls who care for him are incredible, taking time to get to know him, develop him from a tiny baby to a full of energy toddler! The setting of Gelston is lovely, with so much space for all of the kids to playtime and learn. We are very proud to be part of the family. Our kid has attended Gelston for nearly three years now, and we couldn’t be happier with how he has thrived during his time.

September 30, 2024 at 11:10 amWe could not be happier with her development at this childcare centre. She spends lots of time outside, her key worker and room leader are consistently working hard to make sure they take her interests into consideration when setting up activities for the day and she now speaks more French than either me or her dad! My daughter has been attending Gelston Manor Day Childcare centre since she was 9 months old and has recently transitioned into the pre-school room.

September 30, 2024 at 1:49 pmOur son has been going since he was 6 months and is now just over 18 months, he barely gives us a second look at drop-off now, he is so excited to get in! The development he has made is incredible and they really ensure they align what they are teaching him at childcare centre with what his interests are and what we are teaching him at home. They keep us well informed about what he gets up to every day on the app and also at pick-up. He loves all the team there and they all work so hard. The food is all homemade by the incredible chef there which was one of the big factors in sending him there as we adore trying new food as a family so wanted to ensure he was getting a excellent variety on the days he attends childcare centre. They have an incredible outside area too and they get out most days too no matter the weather. Overall I would not hesitate to suggest Gelston Manor! We couldn’t be happier with Gelston Manor Day Childcare centre.

October 17, 2024 at 5:42 pmThe team are consistently coming up with new creative ways of teaching and use the outside space a lot to ensure the kids get fresh air and exercise whilst discovering. Kids with health or regular hospital appointments are guided and supported by team to help them cope. I would highly suggest this childcare centre to everyone, all the team are excellent and the setting is secure and enjoyable. A remarkable childcare centre that provides an incredible setting for kids to learn and flourish.

November 7, 2024 at 2:54 pmWe are delighted with the childcare centre and have recommended it to a number of other families locally. The team are fantastic and create such a lovely family setting for kids to thrive. The outdoor space is remarkable, especially in summer, when the kids delight in all sorts of enjoyable and adventures on the back lawn. Exceptional surroundings for kids to playtime and for preschool aged kids to thrive. We definitely suggest Gelston Manor Day Childcare centre. Thank you for everything you do! We currently have one son at Gelston Manor Day Childcare centre and his older brother also went before he transitioned to primary school last year.

December 8, 2024 at 10:44 amFrom the incredible team to the outside space letting the kids run in the fresh air, we couldn’t ask for anything more. We would suggest Gelston to any of our friends and family. Thank you for all you do. Gelston Manor is such a lovely childcare centre and our little boy loves it!

December 19, 2024 at 9:12 pmThe team are well‑informed, compassionate and expert. We viewed several nurseries before our daughter was born and the passion and commitment of the team at Gelston Manor Day Childcare centre outshone the rest! Our daughter has a dairy and egg allergy and this is taken into consideration every day when meals are prepared by the chef and is highlighted in the app for further reassurance. From the first day our daughter started at the childcare centre we have felt thoroughly reassured that the team in her baby room are committed to getting to know her, help her learn, provide enjoyable new experiences and work in partnership with us as her parents.

January 5, 2025 at 11:39 pmFrom the childcare centre grounds, the team, and the chef we can honestly say we are amazed consistently. Our son has come on in leaps and bounds and we know he will continually do so due to the team at Gelston Manor and we can’t thank them enough. The best decision we have ever made.

January 20, 2025 at 5:58 amFrom the outside space, the team and the chef. Our little boy has come on so much since starting at Gelston. His key worker and the other ladies in his room are remarkable. They really take the time to develop a excellent relationship, not only with our son but with myself and my partner also. They are all extremely expert and should be proud of themselves and the work they do, cannot thank them enough! I would highly suggest this childcare centre to everyone. Adore everything about Gelston Manor!

January 27, 2025 at 6:18 pmThe team are so attentive and consistently thinking of new ways to keep the kids engaged and excited. The grounds of the childcare centre are absolutely perfect too providing lots of time for outdoor playtime, whatever the weather! Would definitely suggest the childcare centre. My 2 boys go to Gelston Manor and absolutely adore it.

February 16, 2025 at 9:16 pmFacilities are incredible, we never saw anything like it at any other childcare centre. The huge gardens and outdoor space for the kids is unrivalled and the care from all team is incredible. The whole place gives lovely, homely vibes and we’ve been so cheerful and reassured sending our son here. The manager was excellent with our induction and welcoming us to the childcare centre. Special shout out to the team in the bunnies room who have looked after our baby so amazingly well. Thank you so much. I cannot rave about this childcare centre enough.

March 29, 2025 at 1:59 amAs a first-time mum, it was lovely to sense reassured by the team here that she was enjoying her days here. The app is excellent for having an insight into her day, recording her meals, sleep and photos too. (The quality of pictures could be better). The quality of care is second to none and the outdoor space is a huge advertising point. Yes, she gets messy but I adore that she has experiences and opportunities that I wouldn’t necessarily provide at home. The team in her room are compassionate and attentive and ensure she gets the most out of her days there. My daughter has been attending Gelston Manor since March 2022.

April 8, 2025 at 3:30 amAfter meeting with the childcare centre team for an initial viewing it became clear how accommodating and dedicated they are, treating each kid as an individual and doing everything possible to make the adjustment to childcare centre life easy and fluid. As a first-time mother, it has really put my mind at ease knowing how experienced and attentive the team at Gelston are, and our son absolutely adores his key worker. He has made so much development since attending thanks to the fantastic team. Would highly suggest it. Gelston Manor is like no other childcare centre we viewed, we were originally sold on the stunning grounds and beautifully decorated baby room, which looks nothing like a childcare centre but rather a family home.

June 7, 2025 at 10:01 amMy firstborn attended throughout the pandemic and the assistance we were given as parents throughout that challenging time was above and beyond and we are so thankful. My son started Gelston in January 2022 and I have nothing but praise and admiration for all the team in that building. Such a lovely childcare centre. Thank you. Both my kids have attended Gelston Manor.

June 12, 2025 at 2:23 amOur son has attended since November 2021 and our daughter will start next year. From the welcome we received when viewing the childcare centre, to now helping us navigate potty training, we couldn’t ask for a better childcare setting. We get excellent updates on what our son has been up to, and the team are remarkable. He has had exceptional key workers as well as room leaders and all other team he is supported by and we communicate with (too many to mention, but you are all so lovely and excellent at what you do!). Our son has developed so much with help from Gelston and his self‑assurance knows no limits! We absolutely adore how much time is promoted outdoors and the outdoor setting is incredible. We cannot fault you, thank you. We couldn’t be happier with Gelston Manor Day Childcare centre.

June 13, 2025 at 7:14 pmSeeing how cheerful my son is each day at drop off and collection is all any parent wants to see, then add this to the incredible development made each week alongside the outstanding updates and care from his key workers/team in the room – I would highly suggest them to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you for your hard work and passion, consistently. We couldn’t be happier with Gelston Manor childcare centre.
