September 11, 2024 at 11:42 amThe outstanding team here make this childcare centre a truly lovely place, they are truly great at keeping team and many have been here for years. There are also a number of male carers which you don’t get at a lot of nurseries – it definitely provides a truly nice balance to truly nurture little ones in different ways. There are frequent trips out, evening events and involvement with local community club days etc. There wasn’t much noticeable change when the childcare centre was taken over by Kids Planet, the same excellent manager and team all continued to do what they are excellent at! I couldn’t ask for anything else from a childcare centre for my girls. I wholeheartedly suggest them. Thanks, everyone, 5 stars from me! I have had one daughter go through every room at this childcare centre between 2017-2021 and my second has attended from 10 months old and is now 2.

October 26, 2024 at 1:09 amThe boys have thrived ever since starting Clifton Lodge and we noticed this right from the first week. Every day new activities are set out for them to explore and learn. The team in the baby room are so attentive of every single kid and that is evident when you see the bond they have created with each on pick up and drop off. The manager is highly approachable and consistently cheerful to help me bring the boys in every morning. I look forward to continuing our development within Clifton Lodge as the boys grow up, although I will be sad when they leave the baby room! Both of my sons started Clifton Lodge Childcare centre in May 2022, they settled in so well and that was down to the care and assistance of all the team, in particular those in the baby room.

October 26, 2024 at 11:14 pmI have seen true care for the kids in each class and at every stage. All team are supportive and welcoming and consistently helping and guiding the kids. The things my son has learnt is truly exceptional and the effort they go to is highly inspiring. I adore that the kids spend a lot of time out door and do a variety of sports. The manager is so approachable and nothing is too much trouble even when she must be juggling so many things.
I will be sad when he goes to school in September but they have definitely got him ready. My son has been at this childcare centre for over three years.

November 4, 2024 at 11:53 amWe have been highly cheerful with all team at Clifton Lodge. The manager is easily approachable and has consistently been highly supportive. The team have been highly welcoming and supportive. The app is updated regularly and the team consistently give thorough feedback at the end of each day. It is clear that the kids are the centre of everything. Preschool has brought my son on leaps and bounds, he has learnt so much in a short space of time, a lot of which we are able to use/implement at home. The baby room is such a inviting lovely room. Our daughter is highly cheerful here she loves the team and has formed excellent bonds with them. We have been exceptionally impressed with the amount of time the kids spend outdoors, doing sports activities and taking trips out. There is obviously a lot of thought, time and effort that goes into each day. We wouldn’t want our kids anywhere else. Highly recommended! I have two kids here one in preschool and one in the baby room.

The team and management team are fantastic. They provide holistic care in a fab setting. My little one truly loves sports and the activities they provide are second to none.
The updates the childcare centre provide are truly comprehensive and excellent you can see what your little one has been up to, and not forgetting delicious and nutritious food. This childcare centre provided everything my little one needed to thrive and grow. Wouldn’t hesitate to suggest. Two of my kids have attended the childcare centre.

He loves the sports and craft activities that are put on and you can tell a lot of thought and planning goes into the days. Remarkable childcare centre, all the team are highly attentive and supportive.

February 23, 2025 at 10:04 pmAll of the team are simply incredible! They truly take the time to get to know all of the kids and my little boy has made incredible bonds with not just his remarkable key worker but also every other member of team.
He’s cheerful to run into childcare centre each morning as his days are full of discovering, developing his skills and plenty of trips outdoors to the local areas.
The daily updates via the app are full of information and pictures which put me at ease and seeing my little boy so cheerful and thriving reassures me that I made the right choice in sending him to Clifton Lodge. My little boy attends Clifton Lodge, he has been going for nearly a year now and I can not fault anything about the childcare centre.

March 8, 2025 at 8:45 pmHe loves childcare centre, he loves playing in the garden during drop off and collection. I’m particularly impressed with the sports activities the childcare centre does, as well as all the activities during the day. The variety of food they provide to the kids is remarkable and also how great their updates is on the app. It’s nice to know when you’re working long periods your kid is cheerful, secure and having enjoyable. My little boy has recently moved here for his own benefit and it was the best thing for him.

March 17, 2025 at 9:11 pmThe baby room was such a inviting, loving home from home for my youngest when he started at 11 months. The rest of the team are so attentive and do everything possible to make the kids sense secure and cheerful. He is now truly enjoying being in the toddler room and thriving with all his little friends.
My oldest is now in preschool and loves it. All the activities, including sport and fitness, are exceptional and he is so cheerful and engaged. All the team are exceptional, my son loves all the creepy crawlies that team bring in and I am truly pleased that he has male role models in childcare centre to look up to.
My only issue with the childcare centre is that the bills are sometimes wrong and hard to understand.
Overall though I am highly cheerful and think the quality of care is excellent! I have two kids at Clifton Lodge and the whole family is exceptionally cheerful with the childcare centre!

March 19, 2025 at 2:28 pmThe baby room is so welcoming and cosy, and the leader and team give off such inviting, nurturing vibes, that I sense much less guilty when leaving my baby, knowing she is in excellent care.
I would happily suggest this childcare centre to others, as my two clingy kids have settled here so well and as a mum, I sense truly well-informed because of the daily updates.
A gorgeous place, with stellar, attentive team! Being new to the area, my toddler and baby both started Clifton Lodge two months ago and it is a gorgeous setting, with lovely facilities and a excellent outdoor space for the kids to learn and explore!
Above all, the team have already been so attentive and attentive, as well as providing regular updates to me through the parent app to put my mind at ease throughout the day.

March 21, 2025 at 4:20 pmOur son has moved through 3 rooms now from babies to lower preschool and the team in each room have been exceptional. They are all so attentive and our son thoroughly enjoys his time at childcare centre. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you to everyone at Clifton Lodge. Clifton Lodge is a remarkable childcare centre.

May 10, 2025 at 4:26 amOur boy has been there a year now, starting at 11 months, and he absolutely loves it. All of the team are super welcoming and personable, which shows in his fondness for each of them. Even the manager knows each kid by name and is so hands-on. Our son has come on leaps and bounds with his development. The meals are consistently excellent and they do so many remarkable activities which they post on the parent app which I adore. It’s super spotless, I have no idea how they keep it so spotless! Over all remarkable childcare centre, already recommended to friends whose kids now attend also. Cannot suggest or praise this childcare centre and the team enough.

May 23, 2025 at 10:46 pmThe team in the baby room have been so patient with him and we are so grateful for their care of him. Now he loves attending childcare centre and is coming on so much – we receive pictures and updates frequently throughout the day so we know what he has been getting up to and he consistently looks like he is having so much enjoyable. Our little boy initially struggled with drop offs and the adjustment of attending childcare centre.

June 9, 2025 at 7:36 amIt truly feels like they are part of a family. The team are remarkable. They show real empathy and care for them at all times, as well as making their days enjoyable and engaging. My kids are treated as individuals and their quirks and phases are handled brilliantly. I sense comfortable leaving them, and that is in no small part due to the excellent introduction they have in the baby room which is continued at each stage of their progression. Both my kids are at Clifton Lodge.

June 27, 2025 at 12:22 amThe team are highly welcoming and informative and the childcare centre is consistently spotless and the ambience is highly calm, too. I adore how the childcare centre is set out and the sensory room is incredible! My daughter also has a plant-based diet and the childcare centre chef consistently makes lovely food daily, to meet her dietary requirements. I would highly suggest the childcare centre, as I don’t have any worries at all.
I have a excellent rapport with all the management and the girls that look after my daughter. My daughter truly enjoys going to childcare centre and when I go to pick her up, she’s consistently keen to stay, which tells me she thoroughly enjoys herself.
