September 13, 2024 at 9:01 amAll the team are absolutely lovely people, they are so welcoming, compassionate and welcoming. I am so cheerful that my twin boys attend here, they adapted well to childcare centre life and the team made it easier for my own worries ensuring me they were secure and well. My boys have come on so much since they started, they have learnt so much and their curriculum and guidance are outstanding. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the team. The manager is fantastic and should be so proud of her team and the fantastic work they do. They treat my kids like their own and it is lovely to see how much my boys adore going. The childcare centre is the perfect setting and has an outside area for the kids to run around whatever the weather conditions Hilltop is the best childcare centre in town, I 100% suggest it to anybody looking for a childcare centre for their kids.

September 20, 2024 at 12:27 pmIt is a home from home where the kids get loads of attention and adore. My son has been going since the childcare centre opened, he has come on leaps and bounds since then. The team are simply incredible, they are passionate about what they do and adore every single kid. They are consistently cheerful to see us and I sense I could not have put my trust in a better team to look after and teach my son. Parents are kept informed of everything our kids are doing and discovering and the team will help parents in any areas they are finding challenging. I could not have picked a better childcare centre, my son is so cheerful there and I look forward to my youngest starting soon too. This childcare centre is a fantastic place for all of the kids.

October 13, 2024 at 7:56 pmThe manager at Hilltops was welcoming and understanding of our concerns. She allowed our daughter to have settling in sessions to ensure that she knew the childcare centre and the team and felt comfortable with us leaving her there. The updates we get regarding the care of her help to ease my concerns and the photos of her settled. My daughter sees childcare centre as another home, she has settled in well, loves the manager and the team and never stops talking about them when at home. She loves going to childcare centre and it has been a joy to send her to Hilltops, I couldn’t have found a better place to send her. When our daughter started at Hilltop’s we were truly nervous, after being in lockdown for so long and only truly knowing mummy and daddy.

October 22, 2024 at 6:52 amWe tried other nurseries but our little girl just could not settle, I think it can be just too scary for them going from a home setting to a large setting. However, that is what is so incredible about Hilltop, it’s so homely and welcoming. It’s big enough that our little girl is discovering to interact with a group of kids and is preparing for school, but it’s small enough that it’s not too intimidating. It’s the perfect step up before school and the high team levels are just so reassuring.
Our little girl adores all the team and it’s so great to see how much she has grown and developed since she has been here. The team are all remarkable and spend so much time getting to know us as well as our little girl. They truly involve us in her education.
It’s just so clear that the childcare centre is not just a business, it’s one big family where everything is done in the best interests of the kids. I could not have wished for a better childcare centre! Hilltop Tots is simply the best childcare centre!

December 26, 2024 at 6:03 pmThank you so much for everything you have done. The memories made (not only with him but myself) I will never forget the day he was sick all over your entrance and myself but you just laughed it off like it was nothing or the day you ruined his hair with foam and I thought I would have to shave his head at a year old. I can laugh about it now, you have made such an impact on us all and we are forever grateful. From 9 months old until today, my son has spent his time at Hilltop Tots Day Childcare centre and I wouldn’t change it for the world!

Team are consistently so welcoming and consistently there to help!
Definitely suggest! Incredible!

January 1, 2025 at 1:41 pmMy son has been going to Hilltop Tots since he was two, so just over 12 months now. He has come on so much with his speech, playtime and social skills. He tells me about all the enjoyable he has had with his friends when he comes home and asks me every morning when he gets up every day if he is going to childcare centre today. All the team are incredible, compassionate and give so much care and attention to each kid, as well as providing assistance and help for me as a first-time mum. I’m so pleased to say they take the time to chat with how things have been throughout the day and celebrate with me all of my son’s achievements. Personally, I adore the fact that the owner and the manager get involved in the daily activities with the kids. It shows to me that the leadership values the education and welfare of the kids in their care, and they assistance the other team fully. Overall, I cannot suggest Hilltop Tots enough! Thank you. I just couldn’t imagine a better place for my son to playtime, learn and have enjoyable.

January 2, 2025 at 10:36 amIt was undoubtedly the best decision I made with my wife to pick Hilltop Tots. Highly expert team greeted us with a lot of positive energy. When you enter this place you see kids with smiles and their happiness. This is the best recommendation or rather proof that every parent wants to get. I see lots of passion of the team which are running this place highly well. What I am truly impressed with and is worth to mention, those people want to make this place better and better! Every single comment is considered with attention. As a recommendation, I can say that during the lockdown my son is missing you guys so much. In the morning when we’re having walks he passes my car and wants to get in and go to your place! MAX SCORE! My young lad has attended the childcare centre since mid Sep 2019.

January 4, 2025 at 12:49 pmPreviously he wouldn’t like leaving my side and would struggle with separation anxiety if I had to leave him even with family members. After 4 settling in sessions, he was cheerful to attend the childcare centre on his own which is a miracle. Sometimes he still gets a bit emotional at the door but all the childcare centre team are welcoming and willing to take their time welcoming him in on his off days. I’ve noticed his speech is developing quicker and he is even sleeping better in the evenings after all the adventures at childcare centre during the day! As soon as I pick him up he will be telling me lots of things that he has been up to in the day. His current favourite is messy playtime! Thank you to everyone at Hilltop Tots for taking the time to welcome him and for putting my mind at ease. My son has been attending the childcare centre for around 3 months now and I’m amazed at how far he has already come along.

January 5, 2025 at 5:54 pmFamily orientated with the individual needs of each kid met in a highly attentive setting. A high ratio of team to kids which gives each kid the care and attention they require. Home-cooked food which the kids delight in. Extra activities such
as music, dancing and Spanish are provided without extra cost. My granddaughter loves attending this childcare centre. An outstanding childcare centre.

January 14, 2025 at 10:39 amThey have supported them in all areas and made sure during this time all kids were given the best opportunity to continue to grow. Supporting them with their development and emotional needs and understanding and seeing each kid as an individual and not just a number has allowed Hilltop to become like a second family who truly does care about all their families. It has been a chaotic year, my son started childcare centre in January 2020 and even with all the out of control world issues Hilltop has gone above and beyond to not only keep themselves secure but also the kids in their care.

February 18, 2025 at 2:52 pmIt is highly welcoming with outstanding team who have created a kid-welcoming enjoyable and educational place. My granddaughter’s development has improved immensely since she started the childcare centre and she is cheerful and eager to attend daily. My grandchild attends this childcare centre.

March 5, 2025 at 8:10 pmTeam are so inviting, nurturing, patient, enjoyable and kid-centred. They go above and beyond to make kids sense secure, secure and valued leading to them thriving! Hilltop Tots Day Childcare centre has been the best possible childcare centre for my little one!
Blake Owens
March 13, 2025 at 7:41 amBoth of my kids have loved attending and talk about the kids and team with excellent fondness. The curriculum is varied and covers all of the EYFS areas and team go above and beyond to ensure the kids receive the best care and education. Remarkable childcare centre!

March 26, 2025 at 2:05 amThey didn’t just go that extra mile for us they ran the New York marathon for us, exceeded all expectations and then just kept ongoing. They didn’t go above and beyond they went stratospheric and I am blown away by the assistance, patience and guidance they have provided to us as a family.
It’s a long road and we are only at the beginning of it but I know when I leave my little boy, he is given the same adore, care and commitment that I myself would give. He has enjoyable, is challenged and educated, he’s even discovering a second language and he’s just turned 2!
So, would I suggest Hilltop Tots? One hundred million times yes, I would and with all of my heart. I would never take my son anywhere else! We are so incredibly proud to be a part of the Hilltop Tots family!! Due to issues at a previous childcare centre my son and I was not a black and white case and integration was a slow and painful one, we needed a small miracle and I was worried that Hilltop Tots might give up on us.

June 21, 2025 at 10:42 amThe team are incredible – highly loving, accommodating and understanding. The childcare centre itself is homely and we see for ourselves how cheerful the kids are to be heading in the door each morning. My son attends Hilltop and he has a smile on his face every day that we drop him off and when we pick him up.

June 28, 2025 at 7:25 pmI was exceptionally worried about sending my daughter to childcare centre but the manager was absolutely exceptional and understanding of my worries and put me at ease.
My daughter adores going to childcare centre and highly often doesn’t want to leave when I pick her up. She has the biggest smile on her face for whoever opens the door to her in the mornings.
I have no worries about taking her to childcare centre as I know she is in the care of lovely people who she loves.
I’m so glad I found this childcare centre and wouldn’t want her to go anywhere else. Would 100% suggest Hilltop Tots to everybody.

June 29, 2025 at 4:01 amThe team are honestly incredible, my little girl has come on leaps and bounds since going. She comes back every day excited to tell us about her day. Excellent childcare centre, my little girl loves it they are like a little incredible family there.
Spencer Keller
July 2, 2025 at 4:29 amThis homely childcare centre is a little gem. My daughter is highly cheerful at childcare centre. The activities and creativity of their discovering and development is excellent and my daughter has flourished whilst in their care. She knows all the kids and team members names and will ask for them. She often doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day.
The care and commitment of the team gives me self‑assurance that I chose the right place. I get plenty of updates on her activities and development and sense highly included in childcare centre. We adore Hilltop.
