    The standard of care and learning that my son is receiving is excellent. He loves coming each day and we are noticing a high improvement in his level of development. He is now beginning to speak and repeat individual words and we also notice that he is recognising extra nursery rhymes and is fully aware of all the actions (head, shoulders, knees and toes for example). My only slight criticism would be the difficulty experienced on your monthly invoicing side before you switched to collecting payments by direct debit, but I am pleased that this is now resolved and only a temporary issue whilst the new ownership of the nursery adjusted and settled. Special thanks to three members of staff in particular who have all been amazing.

    Can’t praise the nursery enough!
    Amazing, caring and loving people! Definitely feel like I am leaving my baby in good hands. She is happy to come in and always has cuddles when not too keen on staying. Amazing activities and outdoor spaces. Very happy with the nursery.

    Our daughter is so happy at Head Start Day Nursery. She has additional needs which we are still in the process of having diagnosed. The support from the nursery has been outstanding. Our daughter is fully involved in daily activities and we feel she is so well cared for. The nursery works with us and outside agencies to make sure our daughter has the right support and remains a happy, healthy child. Thank you.

    So pleased to see such familiar faces from when my older daughter attended. They have made it such a family environment. All staff are so friendly and welcoming. Really love the new reporting system and the new layout inside and out. Well done team, you’re doing amazing.

    My daughter came here from another nursery and was immediately made welcome. She always speaks highly of the staff and seems to enjoy the activities. The menu is sufficiently varied and seconds are offered. Overall, I am happy with Potters Bar nursery and plan to send my baby here, when the time comes.

    Our daughter has been at Potters Bar for 2 years now and she has been so happy. The staff are all really lovely and friendly and give you lots of feedback on their day. We love getting pictures sent of our daughter having lots of fun.

    It has been a very nice experience getting our first child into such a lovely nursery. As new parents, it was a bit of a nerve-racking thought to leave a baby with new people. but everyone here is so lovely and has made it all very easy.

    My daughter is very happy at nursery. She goes in very happily and is always very excited to see her friends. She doesn’t talk much about what she’s been up to but comes home appropriately mucky and always seems really content when I see her playing in the garden.

    My son has settled in really quickly and has developed so quickly since starting and is walking himself into the nursery now. I love how happy he is when I pick him up. He really loves it here.
    Thank you to two members of staff, in particular.

    My youngest son started here at 2.5 years old. He took a while to settle, due to lockdown, but the nursery were so supportive and helpful during this process, that he is now so excited to go to nursery. He really is thriving here and has the best time. I have no regrets about having him here. Thank you to all the staff.

    I’m happy with how my child is settling in with you he seems to be enjoying his time and I’ve also noticed that he has learnt new skills since he has been at nursery. His gross motor skills have been improving and I can see from the moves that he has brought home that he’s having fun singing songs with actions! I’m confident that he’ll continue to thrive here. Thank you for all the updates on the app. I love looking at them.

    We have had an excellent experience sending both my daughter and son to this nursery. My son is learning so much and gaining so much confidence being a lockdown baby. They have improved and develop the nursery really well and made it a good comfortable place for kids.

    My son has been more independent and loves to go to the nursery every day. He loves to play with all his friends. His vocabulary has improved very well and he speaks in full sentences. He also expresses his feeling much more than before. Would highly recommend this nursery for any kid who is looking to start his/her journey.

    Children love coming to nursery and in the mornings they tell me they are “going to have a great day at nursery”. It is lovely to hear what they have learnt in the day. The app is great as you can see in real-time what they have had for lunch/nappies etc.

    Everyone at this establishment is so lovely. They genuinely care for all of the children and always ensure the correct support is provided to ensure they flourish. The food is also excellent as is the variety of activities the children do.
