September 27, 2024 at 9:16 pmThe team are all incredible and remarkable at what they do. My little boy started here when he was 8 months old, he was born 3 months premature and so was still tiny and wary of new people. This couldn’t be further away from what he’s like now after being at Hydra Tots a few months already, he has completely come out of his shell being at childcare centre and development wise, I couldn’t have wished for any better, he is doing absolutely incredible. There is constant enjoyable and discovering keeping all the kids constantly entertained with different themes every month. I’ll definitely miss them when he goes to school in a few years as I know he will too! I cannot suggest this childcare centre enough.

October 14, 2024 at 3:57 amShe’s so nervous and a fussy eater. Three weeks in and no tears on arrival and also trying new foods. Her educators are so thoughtful and have worked hard with magic tips and tricks that have got her socialising and eating! They are also a huge assistance to me as a parent. I truly value their advice. Management are so supportive and the kitchen/cleaning team are also lovely. Everyone has been invested in this plan to get her to eat. They take the time to get to know our kids and it’s such a lovely discovering setting. An incredible team. Thank you. The best setting I could have wished for.

October 17, 2024 at 2:30 pmIt’s one of the best nurseries around, my little girl absolutely loves going, all the team are absolutely incredible. I know all the girls and they know my daughter’s name, even though she’s in a different class to some of them. There is fresh cooked food on site every day and it changes week by week which is exceptional because we have problems at home with eating but I know she’s had a great solid healthy meal and snacks with all her friends, when she attends. Can’t thank the girls here enough for all their assistance and hard work they put in day by day to make sure all the kids are cheerful and looked after. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. You all do a exceptional job. My little girl has been coming to Hydra Tots Private Day Childcare centre for a great few years now.

November 12, 2024 at 1:21 pmGo above and beyond for the kids. So nice that I have no issues at drop off, my daughter is so cheerful to toddle into childcare centre with no issues. She consistently comes out cheerful and smiley after a excellent day at childcare centre. Remarkable childcare centre and team.

November 21, 2024 at 1:34 amExpert, highly well‑informed and did a thorough walk around the whole childcare centre and showed what each room consists of and what each kid can expect to do, day to day. We weren’t rushed at all and were made to sense highly comfortable and welcome. The rooms will make you smile and the middle area with the soft playtime is an incredible add on which definitely is an added bonus knowing you can send your kid to childcare centre and they will not only learn, but they will be highly cheerful playing too. I sense exceptionally confident when I leave my kid here that he’s in the best and safest hands! We looked round a lot of nurseries in the area and nothing compared to this one!

November 30, 2024 at 4:35 amWe have been so impressed with the attentive nature of the team, their relationships with the kids and the updates at the end of the day. The rooms are bright and inviting, activities are varied and both our girls have made great friends. They go in with a smile on their face and come out full of chatter about what they have done! It’s truly brought them on socially and helped to prepare my eldest well for school. Would definitely suggest to anyone. Both of our daughters started doing 3 days a week at Hydra Tots when they were about a year old and are now 18 months and 4.5 years.

December 25, 2024 at 12:48 amI would so suggest this childcare centre to anyone, they are supportive, compassionate and my son has come on leaps and bounds. The girls that look after my son are incredible. My second born will be going this September and I’m more than confident he will adore it as much as my older boy. Thank you for everything you do for us. My little boy has been going since he was ten months old, he’s now three nearly four and absolutely loves it.

January 4, 2025 at 2:48 amAfter having bad experiences with a childcare centre and childminder I was exceptionally nervous about leaving my kid again with a stranger. From the moment I enquired it has been nothing short of perfect! Updates is fantastic. I can’t explain how incredible the team are. Their level of professionalism is exceptionally high! You can tell they adore their job and practice high levels of care. My little boy loves going to Hydra Tots and is upset when he leaves at the end of the day. The childcare centre is highly spotless and they have an array of exciting discovering apparatus. Nothing is too much trouble for each and every one of the team. They all take part in attentive for the kids. I have observed other educators from the other departments treating kids just as equally as if they were part of their classroom. They go above and beyond to ensure my kid doesn’t miss out on opportunities due to his dairy intolerance. There is consistently hugs and smiles available. Thank god for Hydra Tots. I can’t thank Hydra Tots enough!

January 23, 2025 at 4:11 pmThe team are truly remarkable, truly expert but highly attentive. The facilities are second to none and the kids are kept busy all day. Her mum was nervous about ‘letting go’ but she hasn’t looked back since. My little granddaughter has been so cheerful here.

March 13, 2025 at 10:35 pmThe rooms are brilliantly organised and decorated, making a lovely educational setting. It is reassuring to know that kids who attend journey a range of positive experiences, provided by a team of dedicated team. I know my God daughter loves it and has learnt a excellent deal, physically, emotionally and socially since starting here. I can highly suggest this childcare centre. I can honestly say that this is an incredible and remarkable family run childcare centre.

April 1, 2025 at 9:02 pmThey’re well‑informed, supportive, welcoming and most importantly, exceptionally attentive and understanding of each kid and their individual needs. My daughter has never been more settled at a childcare centre and is absolutely thriving in her discovering every day. I have complete peace of mind that she is in secure hands.
Five-star childcare centre! All the team are incredible!

April 5, 2025 at 5:42 pmThe childcare centre team are fantastic attentive individuals who have incredible relationships with the kids, the way they learn new things in the setting is also fantastic. I would never suggest any other childcare centre this is just 100% the best childcare centre in the area. I just wanted to say how exceptional this childcare centre is, my daughter has attended for two years now and my son is just about to start.
Indigo Randall
April 20, 2025 at 6:08 amMy son loves going and is excited to see the team and his classmates, the team have created such a lovely attentive setting and you can see how much all the kids delight in being there! It can be hard being a parent going back to work, worrying about your little one, but I never worry knowing that my kid is in the best care and having an incredible day. It is not just about the kid either – because the childcare centre is family run, there is care and assistance for the parents too. They go out of their way to answer questions and provide advice, I sense truly involved which makes a massive difference. I would suggest this childcare centre to absolutely anyone! This is an absolutely remarkable childcare centre!

May 20, 2025 at 11:17 pmI told the childcare centre at the point my little boy joined that he was been assessed for autism. And that he has major updates difficulties and is nonverbal. I wasn’t sure if they’d be able to meet his needs but I made sure from the beginning I explained all this, they have gone above and beyond for him! They’ve adapted his hours to suit his needs with later drop-offs/early pick-ups. Adapted his playtime to things that interest him as well as various other things. The main thing being that they have helped me massively with filling out Disability Living Allowance forms and his Education, Health and Care Plan process which is in development currently. The Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator is an absolute godsend and I cannot sing her praises enough! I consistently looked on reviews at nurseries to see if they were any other parents with Special Educational Needs kids to see how the childcare centre would manage with that and although every kid is different they go above and beyond! This childcare centre has 5 star everywhere for a reason, fabulous! What a remarkable childcare centre.

June 6, 2025 at 2:12 pmWhen my son started, he was highly anxious and completely non-verbal. The change in him now is incredible. Both the educators and management have been exceptionally supportive of us as a family and have worked with us in helping to build our little boy’s self‑assurance. This childcare centre is absolutely remarkable and I would suggest it to everyone.
Parker Taylor
June 18, 2025 at 11:40 pmThe team are all outstanding and updates between the educators and parents is consistently excellent. We get feedback on the day whenever I pick my daughter up. If there are any problems with how she settles, they are consistently excellent to give recommendations on how we at home can help with this. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since attending. Thank you Hydra Tots Private Day Childcare centre for all the outstanding care you provide to the kids! My daughter has attended Hydra Tots Private Day Childcare centre since October last year and she absolutely loves it as do I.

June 30, 2025 at 9:08 amI was so nervous in the beginning of letting go and I was crying when dropping off, meanwhile, my son was off having the best time of his life! Going back to work has been challenging for me but I never have to worry about him because I know he’s having the best day with his friends and is in the best care. As the childcare centre is family run, they truly understand different circumstances and situations and the assistance they’ve provided to not just my son but myself also has been incredible, the team are all absolute angels and I sincerely can’t thank them enough! They’ve gone out of their way to provide assistance and advice to me and it’s made such a huge difference. The rooms and activities are all exciting and encouraging and my son has come on leaps and bounds since he started. I especially adore the pictures and paintings he comes home with. Thank you so much for everything you’ll never know how much it means to us! I cannot suggest the team and childcare centre enough!

July 8, 2025 at 4:11 amOur daughter started in the baby room when she was twelve months old. She’s currently twenty eight months and in the two to three year room and loving it! She is developing brilliantly and I’m sure that the incredible care and attention of the team at the childcare centre has played a huge part in this. The childcare centre team are exceptional, highly welcoming and attentive. There are exceptional indoor and outdoor facilities, the indoor soft playtime is fabulous. There are consistently new themes that the kids learn about and plenty of opportunity for creativity and crafts. Can’t suggest this childcare centre highly enough.
