December 1, 2020 at 12:00 amThis is a great nursery that my daughter attended from the age of 1. Staff are brilliant and attentive, my little girl absolutely loves going there, she settled very quickly and now run inside without looking back, she knows all the room stuff by their names. There are always fun activities to do and lots of things to bring home to show us. Their communication is great and they have been very accommodating in the past. I would recommend this nursery if you are looking for caring and supportive people to look after your little ones, knowing they are always in good hands.

December 2, 2020 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Magic Tree for just over a year and he has settled so well. The ladies in the baby room look after him so well and are happy to help in any situation. I can’t fault any of them. My son is happy to come to the nursery and always talks about staff or children at home. I have recommended Magic Tree to many of my friends and always will do.

December 2, 2020 at 12:00 amMagic tree is the best nursery by far. Staff have been amazing with my daughter. I cannot fault them. Her speech is coming on extremely well for an under two. Always comes home happy after a day here.

December 2, 2020 at 12:00 amMagic Tree day nursery is amazing and the staff are very friendly indeed. My son loves going to nursery and he is very happy here. He has learned so much and made friends which makes me feel comfortable leaving him here.

December 2, 2020 at 12:00 amLovely nursery. Very friendly staff. Made me feel at ease leaving my daughter with them. The outside is lovely and safe for the children. There is a lot of things for the children to play with inside and outside.

December 2, 2020 at 12:00 amI cannot thank Magic Tree enough for stimulating and teaching my daughter new things every day – I’m amazed. They’ve also been amazing accommodating her during my illness. She is so happy at nursery and gets excited to go every morning she goes.

December 3, 2020 at 12:00 amFrom day 1 back in summer 2019, all of the staff have done their best to cater for a few of my son’s extra needs. They genuinely care about the happiness of the child and clearly create a great bond with every one of the children.

December 4, 2020 at 12:00 amBoth of my children have attended this lovely nursery and I have complete faith in the staff there. My children have always been happy and formed good bonds with their key worker. There are lots of age-appropriate activities for the children to enjoy with a heavy focus on play-based learning. Highly recommended.

December 15, 2020 at 12:00 amAbsolutely fab nursery! I feel my baby is really safe there and so happy while attending! Plenty of activities and fun! Excellent staff looking after children really properly, great communication, my little one really enjoyed it.

December 21, 2020 at 12:00 amMy son attends Magic Tree nursery twice per week. He is always happy and has progressed developmentally since joining particularly with his speech and language. The staff are kind and care for the children to an outstanding level. As a full time working parent it is reassuring to be able to send my child to a setting where I know he is safe and secure. They set up a range of activities for the children to engage with and have access to learning outside. Myself and my
Husband and I thank the staff at Magic Tree from the bottom of our hearts for all they do for our son.

February 5, 2021 at 12:00 amI always enjoy picking my grandson up from nursery as he’s always so happy after his session. His key worker always gives me a full rundown on his day. In the car on the way home, he never stops chatting about what he and his friends did during the day and his favourite story too.

June 30, 2022 at 12:00 amWould think twice again before signing my son to this Nursery.
My son started to attend there from June and they’ve managed to close his room and cancel his session 5 times and I already know he is losing another afternoon next week. The first two sessions were his settling days, then when speaking with now ex-manager she has told me that was not her problem that they are short of staff. Clearly was more my problem as I had to postpone my work for another week without any notice. Then others are his normal days when I am supposed to be working. They seem to only close the afternoons which it’s not really fair as I believe if they move the staff around this would be fair for everyone to lose some sessions. Now I’ve just received the invoice where they only deducted two sessions instead of three. I had a few more issues but there is not enough room to write them down about. Nice staff but very poor management, impossible to go back to work stress-free.
I wish I knew that before.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amI always feel my daughter is safe, and for me that is the priority at that age.
Her dairy allergy is very well managed and the catering and meal options are nutritious and well-balanced.
We are always welcomed with a smile and welcomed in. We have a good handover and drop-off.
There are always new and exciting activities for the children to explore and options given to develop independence.
It is true there have been staff shortages, which at times can be a challenge. However, I have always felt the nursery has communicated this well and within good time. I also feel the room closures have been fair and rotated so that it is not the same children all of the time.
Thank you for all you have done in these difficult times.

April 27, 2023 at 12:00 amI recommend Magic Tree. The staff are friendly and my son looks forward to going to Preschool each week. He tries a variety of food there and there are lots of different activities and toys to keep them entertained. I’m happy I chose this nursery as my son seems to love it!

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter absolutely loves coming to Magic Tree Day Nursery Yate, the staff are amazing and my daughter’s key worker is incredible. The staff always communicate so well with updates, and when I pick my daughter up they always give me a really detailed rundown of her day. I have complete trust in all the staff at Magic Tree and I with the new management change recently it’s 100% improved the nursery. I would recommend Magic Tree to any parents and I’m really looking forward to my son starting in September. Thank you so much to all staff.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amWe registered our son at Magic Tree following their ‘outstanding’ rating with Ofsted (which has sadly been rescinded). I’ve been told staff and management had changed around significantly prior to us starting and has continued to. However, all the staff we’ve encountered are very pleasant and clearly care about the children. There is new management which I’m hoping supports staff with their development and qualifications, so there’s definite positive change on the horizon. We have had room closures in the past, but thankfully have dodged the recent bout of them.
Our main concern is with communication. At our other nursery they used an app which is really swish and easy with very quick responses, but the app Magic Tree use is so clunky and we’ve had very few updates since we started, and the main form of comms is email which can take a while. Investment in a new app would go a long way. We would also love regular development meetings but have only had one parents’ evening in the last year.

April 28, 2023 at 12:00 amI always feel listened to and that the staff are willing to do whatever they can to support the children. Nothing is too much trouble and they really take the time to get to know each child as an individual.

May 5, 2023 at 12:00 amHaving had the experience of a different nursery with my eldest child I am really disappointed with Magic Tree. My daughter has attended for nearly 2 years and has hardly any info/photos on the online learning book. I have never had any ‘review of development’. The staff are more interested in cleaning at the end of the day than speaking to parents about their child’s day. My daughter only comes home with dirty clothes from her nappy leaking rather than having fun! I was invited to one parents’ evening and raised my concerns and was told things would improve with the new manager. She’s long gone already! There’s such a high turnover of staff that nothing ever improves. Would not recommend and would move my daughter if anywhere else had a space.

May 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Magic Tree day nursery since February at 7 months old, and I have seen so many changes in him and quickly achieving milestones such as crawling standing and now trying to walk! I put this down to the great staff that absolutely love their job and spend the time with him which is needed at such a young age. I was initially worried about leaving my baby so young but the staff made this easy. At the end of every day, I get an in-depth review of my son’s day and how he has got on. The nursery has undergone quite a lot of staff and management changes in the last month or so but all changes appear to be for the better. I would definitely recommend this nursery.
