September 8, 2024 at 11:37 pmShe is so cheerful going in each day and has made so much development with the help of the fantastic team there. All the team are so compassionate and attentive and really get to know each kid and their families.
The facilities are just incredible especially the outside space and all the creative activities that they do. We get kept up to date daily with how she is doing and get to see lovely pictures of her enjoying her time at the childcare centre.
The childcare centre really do go above and beyond arranging extra days out of childcare centre hours such as pumpkin picking, family enjoyable days etc, parents evenings, which is a excellent chance to meet and speak with other parents and kids.
I really could not suggest this childcare centre enough! We are so grateful to the team here and will be really sad when our daughter leaves to start school. My daughter has been attending this childcare centre for the past 2 years and she has consistently loved it from day 1!

He has learnt so much since joining and has made lots of friends. His self‑assurance levels have gone through the roof, which is excellent to see. My little boy absolutely loves it here.

September 26, 2024 at 10:25 amThe women are incredible and welcoming and so catering. This childcare centre is incredible, my two little babies have grown and blossomed so much since starting with them, we have learned things we use in our everyday life that have made things so much easier at home.

October 6, 2024 at 5:14 amAll the team are welcoming and polite, you can be assured that they put so much effort in with the kids and you can see on their cheerful faces.
Would highly suggest to anything thinking of this setting. My daughter is consistently excited to go in the mornings and has formed a excellent bond with the team there.
She has progressed so well I am really proud and I thank the key workers for their dedication and hard work.

October 24, 2024 at 7:33 amThe team are lovely and welcoming. They also organise outdoor events for the kids and family. I’d definitely suggest! Two of my girls have attended Munchkins, from the baby room to the pre-school and both the girls adore the setting.

November 22, 2024 at 9:02 pmThe childcare centre setting is just lovely, and the team are so loving and attentive. I get an update on the app about everything she has done, and I adore seeing the videos and photos as to what she has been up to at childcare centre. The garden area is filled with lots of enjoyable things for the kids to do, such as mud kitchens, an incredible wooden climbing frame and a climbing tunnel. The team really cannot do enough for me and my little girl, and put me totally at ease when I first left her, now my daughter asks to go to childcare centre, even when it’s not her day to go! I viewed several nurseries before Munchkins, but I knew straight away this was the one for her! I cannot suggest it enough, thank you Munchkins. My little girl just loves Munchkins; she can’t wait to go in the morning.

November 25, 2024 at 6:04 amThe team are all so inviting to the kids and my son has built up the loveliest bonds. The team really take the time to get to know kids’s interests and set up exceptional activities for them around this. Bright and spotless facilities and a lovely garden where they spend lots of time.
The childcare centre is run well and management are consistently approachable. Highly suggest. My son has attended the childcare centre for a few years now and we’ve never had any problems.

December 3, 2024 at 3:37 pmI moved my daughter to Munchkins at Dunton Fields, primarily because of how current and adaptable the childcare centre is. I absolutely loved their whole wooden theme, their use of technology (parent app) and how the kids are placed at the centre of everything. The team are absolutely fantastic and updates is outstanding. My daughter has settled very well at the childcare centre. The team make a huge effort with creative activities and engaging the kids. I thoroughly delight in seeing my kid’s development through the parent app with detailed notes and photos. It is a fantastic childcare centre for any kid to thrive in! I am absolutely delighted with Munchkins Day Childcare centre.

December 13, 2024 at 9:54 amWe chose Munchkins as it was close to home and great hours for us as we both work in the city.
After a year of starting she has grown up so much and is now in the toddler room. She is so cheerful to go and has learnt to playtime nicely with kids (being born just before the pandemic limited her interaction with little ones. This was a worry for us).
Every day she comes home saying new words, singing new songs, dancing around the house and even trying new foods!
While I am at work I get daily updates on what she has been doing! This week she has loved pancake day!
Thank to all the team for keeping her cheerful and secure! As with most first time parents, you struggle between the thoughts of going back to work or staying at home.
We decided to send our daughter soon after she turned one.

December 17, 2024 at 4:52 amMy kids are cheerful here and the setting is so welcoming. Would highly suggest. Recently started my second kid here at the childcare centre and, after the incredible journey and incredible care they gave our son, I am so cheerful to say the same incredible care is still being given.

January 21, 2025 at 6:06 amThe team are absolutely incredible and send us lovely photos and updates throughout the day to reassure us they are having enjoyable.
At Munchkins, they are consistently very accommodating with social events and keeping parents involved and are consistently very welcoming.
My son and niece have so much enjoyable, making things, seeing animals, discovering, getting messy and they consistently come out smiling, they adore it at Munchkins and we wouldn’t send them anywhere else. My son and niece have been attending Munchkins Childcare centre Dunton Fields since it opened in October last year.
My sister and I were a bit nervous about leaving them all day as we are both first-time mums and have only ever left them with family, they took a few weeks to settle as they only attend 1 day a week at the moment, but it didn’t take long for them to willingly run in by themselves.

January 28, 2025 at 8:14 pmMy kid started back in May 2021 and the childcare centre identified within a couple of months that they had some sensory issues along with speech and language delay. They were very pro-active in implementing additional help for my kid. So I’m very cheerful with the setting and the team and management are lovely.
The only area I would say that could, on occasion, be improved is the updates. Although this is normally only at busy times.
Would definitely suggest Munchkins to other parents. My 2 year old really enjoys going to Munchkins.
Drew Randall
January 31, 2025 at 1:13 amTheir outdoor garden is absolutely lovely encouraging outdoor playtime with natural elements!
My daughter has become so confident in a matter of a few months. I adore how they use various methods to teach kids how to communicate which also involves using sign language. I sense a part of my daughter’s development in childcare centre, since I am given regular updates and I sense the management really do value parents’ concern about their kid which is why I have chosen them again for my son! I am so glad to choose this childcare centre.

February 14, 2025 at 4:46 amThey go above and beyond to ensure every kid is cheerful, achieving and secure. All team are inviting and welcoming and they take time to get to know the whole family when working with their kids. Their safety measures are exceptional and the kids’s needs are consistently their priority. My son runs through the door in the morning, looking forward to a enjoyable-packed day with his friends and the team. Their resources are exceptional and the kids all find them engaging, building their curiosity to learn more. Thank you so much Munchkins team, I can go to work with peace of mind that my son is in excellent care and developing so many important skills whilst having enjoyable with you all. The team at Munchkins are incredible.

February 26, 2025 at 11:04 pmShe is excited to get her coat on to go to childcare centre and consistently come home smiling.
The team are incredible and deserve so much credit, I receive regular updates and photos and they actually bond with the kids and get to know them.
The playtime area is excellent and has everything to entertain a small kid’s imagination.
The childcare centre also provides cooked food and encourage the kids to try different tastes.
I would highly suggest Munchkins to any parent. My daughter has attended Munchkins for just ever a year and I couldn’t be happier with the level of care she receives.

March 4, 2025 at 3:49 amThe care given is incredible, the ethos and team are incredible. It’s an all round outstanding childcare centre.
My son is due to start in a couple of weeks and I know he his going to grow and develop so much when he starts.
They work with you as a family to ensure the kids are developing all the skills they need.
I’d highly suggest the childcare centre. My daughter has attended the childcare centre since June 2020 and she absolutely loves it.
Justice Keane
April 21, 2025 at 12:00 pmThe team are lovely and have consistently made me sense at ease leaving my son there. He loves it there and is consistently cheerful coming out. He took a while to settle but the team have been incredible at comforting him and making him sense secure. I adore the discovering material at the childcare centre and how homely it feels. Also the meals the kids are given sound lovely with an in house chef and my son consistently eats well. Would definitely suggest this childcare centre to friends and family. My son has been attending Munchkins for just over a year now.
Phoenix Grant
May 9, 2025 at 3:49 pmShe has made great connections with the team members and also the team members have made us, the parents, sense very cheerful to be sending her there. She’s been there since she turned 2 and on days she’s not there asks when she’s going! Everything about the childcare centre, from the updates to the activities they do is incredible. Would definitely suggest this childcare centre to anyone. My daughter is absolutely thriving at this childcare centre.

May 14, 2025 at 12:06 pmThey genuinely care about how her day goes and she consistently comes home with a smile on her face. The childcare centre consistently have a mixture of activities, ranging from arts and crafts, to holding mini animal zoos at the farm. The team encourage independence whilst eating, socialising and toilet training and they consistently provide sound feedback of how the day has been. As parents, we have been very cheerful with our daughter’s development, and could not suggest the childcare centre enough. From the first time our daughter stepped into the childcare centre the team have been nothing but first class.

May 19, 2025 at 1:04 amAs a full-time working, first mum I was so worried about putting my little boy into the pre-school but he loves it. They do so many enjoyable things he doesn’t get to do at home like cooking their lunches over a fire, going on day trips with his friends, crafts, playing outside and so much more. I adore that they notice what your kid loves to do and then follow their lead by putting out different things every day that they may be interested in (no matter how messy)! They are even in the middle of building a new floor for the pre-schoolers as a cosy den.
My son adores his mentor and they have already made such a special bond that I am so grateful for. He is singing new songs every day, saying new words, eating so many different healthy nutritious foods and I am put at ease every day while I work with pics and updates.
Everyone is truly very compassionate and supportive and comforts my son like he was their own when he needs it. Incredible team! I cannot say enough great things about this childcare centre.
