February 5, 2021 at 12:00 amI can not recommend Mini Monkeys enough. Staff are always happy and welcoming. My son has been attending for the last 7 months and loves coming to nursery every day. He always leaves smiling and happy!

February 15, 2021 at 12:00 amThere is a nice large nursery with very friendly young staff. I totally recommend it.
The only problem is that they are not yet in partnership with the council and probably I’ll have to move my daughter to another nursery because I can’t afford the fees. But sincerely, I will be sorry for this situation because my daughter is enjoying this nursery very much.

April 13, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter started at Mini Monkeys in January 2021 aged 1. I was apprehensive about how she would be starting nursery and being separated from me as she hadn’t had much chance to socialise with others due to lockdown restrictions. We had a rough start but thanks to the friendliness and support from all the nursery staff she is now turning into a confident little girl who has bonded well with everyone.
All the nursery staff are excellent and friendly. I am confident that I am leaving my daughter in good hands and she always comes home smiling. The nursery are very attentive to her needs and the report of her daily activities, what she has had to eat, sleep and any problems is great along with photographs. I couldn’t be happier at the nursery I’ve chosen to care for her.

May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amMy little girl loves attending Mini Monkeys nursery she has been there since the very first day it opened. She skips in with a smile on her face and comes out with a smile on her face this makes me a very happy mummy!
All the staff have always made me feel very welcome and comfortable, I know my child is safe at nursery.
I cannot fault the staff or the nursery and I would highly recommend it to everyone.
There is Mini Monkey connect, learning journals and also the handover each night which gives you an insight into what activities your child has done, what they have been learning and what they have eaten, which I find helps me build a picture of her day.
She has grown into a bright, friendly, polite little girl and its thanks to all at mini monkeys.
Thank you.

March 3, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son has started at Mini Monkeys over a month ago aged 3. We were worried that he was going to have a difficult time going through this transition as he has never been to a nursery before, but he has built a relationship with the staff and his peers very quick and settled very well into nursery.
I would highly recommend this nursery as the staff are very friendly and very supportive. The nursery has a nice outdoor space and involves children in different physical and creative activities including messy play. Parents are given a daily report and have access to a learning journal where they can see pictures and videos of the child and see their progress and development.
Within a short period of time at Mini Monkeys our son improved his social skills, become more engaging, confident and much happier within himself.

March 7, 2022 at 12:00 amThe staff have been so brilliant with my little girl, she is coming home much more confident, and we get to see just what she has been up to with her days, ie messy play, ball pit, painting, etc
Been there for the last 8 months and couldn’t recommend it higher.

March 7, 2022 at 12:00 amVery friendly and approachable staff, very supportive also, would be better if the nursery had government funding so my son can stay there until he is 5 as he is settled and very comfortable there would. Highly recommend this nursery

March 7, 2022 at 12:00 amMini Monkeys has been a great place for my son, he was made very welcome and settled so well after we moved cities and had to change his nursery at 20 months old, he’s now been here almost a year and loves going. They are provided with fresh food and healthy snacks and get lots of opportunities for messy play and outdoor play which he loves too. There are lots of varied activities and things for the kids to do.

I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone.
Keep up the great work.

March 21, 2022 at 12:00 amThanks to the manager and staff for taking the time out to ensure all the kids met “Mrs Claus” and have great fun in the festive activities. Notwithstanding the fact that my grandson has dietary requirements, you all made sure he didn’t miss out on any foodstuff that the other kids had to eat, many thanks. I look forward to my grandson’s visits when he gets so excited telling me all about his days at nursery.
Keep up the good work. xx

April 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended the nursery for almost a year now and loves going. They have plenty of messy and outdoor play for the kids which my daughter loves. They offer a good range of fresh and health food option and carter to our vegan life style.

March 1, 2023 at 12:00 amMy child has attended Mini Monkeys for almost eight months and all of the staff have excelled in making my child feel welcome, loved and supported during his experience so far. He attends 5 days a week and has the best time, every day going in full of excitement and coming home with a huge smile on his face. The facilities are great, the staff put on a great variation of messy play and different toys/themed weeks, and the outdoor area is full of so many fun things to play with and climb on. He is so confident and full of words which I can only put down to the amazing way the staff communicate with the children. Thanks very much and keep up the good work!

March 2, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending the nursery for almost a year now. He settled in very quickly and he really enjoys taking part in the messy activities they organise. He has the chance to learn, explore and socialise in a healthy and safe environment, with professional and friendly staff that understand his needs. I really recommend it!

March 2, 2023 at 12:00 amAll the staff are great with the kids. My daughter is happy going in every day and enjoys all the activities that they do on a daily basis. The meals appear to have a great variety for her learning new foods and overall very happy with their services.

March 3, 2023 at 12:00 amAll three of my sons attend mini monkeys. They are all well looked after and have built positive relationships with the staff who look after them!
All three have a variety of activities and learning opportunities each day which we hear all about at handover times when collecting. They are always happy when dropping off and excited to go to nursery to see their friends!

March 13, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth my children have been attending Mini Monkeys from the 0-2 room, and my eldest is soon to go to school. My little girl will be going to school having a wide variety of skills and knowledge, developed whilst at Mini Monkeys. My little boy who is not two yet can recognise colours and shapes and can speak sentences clearly. The girls in the nurseries have a great bond with my children and know them well, I feel at ease every day knowing my children are well looked after and happy in their nursery environment. The girls are attentive to all their needs and have extensive knowledge when it comes to childcare. At the end of every day I am given a sheet which provides me with details about what they’ve eaten, nappies/toileting, sleep and an in-depth handover about which activities/trips they have participated in. I am also updated regularly via learning journals about their individual learning it’s lovely to see how happy they are. I am also looking forward to having a stay-and-play day soon.

March 13, 2023 at 12:00 amMy first child has attended this nursery for the last four years where they have thrived. Their speech has come along amazingly well and they are growing in confidence. This nursery really complements the curriculum set by the school and helps prepare children for moving on.
My second child also attends where the staff have developed a positive bond with them. The team for both my children have taken the time to get to know them and develop an understanding of their personalities and needs.

April 3, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been at Mini Monkeys for two years, he has come on in his development and all the staff are lovely and show a real interest in every child in their rooms. The owner is one of the most lovely, kind and caring women I’ve ever met and I’m so happy that she and all of the staff at Mini Monkeys are such a massive part of my child’s life.

April 4, 2023 at 12:00 amI’m a first-time young mum, and initially, I was unsure about leaving my little one, but both I and my wee boy have never felt more welcomed! From the very initial meeting, all staff have been incredibly welcoming, and my wee boy is loving it! Always leaves and comes back with a smile. I cannot wait to see how much he progresses and engages further!
