    Our son has been going here since he was 1 and we have always had a wonderful experience with My First Friends. The staff are lovely and attentive. He has been very happy there and we will be sad for him to leave!

    My First Friends has been amazing. I have two boys, one attended many years ago he is now 14 and my youngest is two. Both went from 6 months old and the nursery staff have been accommodating, welcoming and reassuring with the care of my children. They even remember my eldest son.
    They have adapted to change particularly well and have managed parents through this process with very little if any impact to the children. This is their recent joining of a wider nursery group. My only worry is the individuality of the nursery remains. Having had the removal of their own social media page and presence is a concern. However, the collaboration can only support the needs of the children.
    Staff can not do enough for you and more importantly for your child.

    No bad words at all against what they do and support my child’s progress. My baby started in March with no English at all, they were so patient and gave me feedback on what to do step by step. Actually, my elder daughter was there in 2017 as well and I was so pleased with the support and friendly staff there and that’s why I have no doubt of choosing them again when my second daughter is reaching the age. Highly recommended them, I have told so many of my friends already about how good they are.

    I preferred it when we got updates throughout the day on the app, it gave me some comfort that I knew what was happening.
    I loved the photo and activity updates but these are now less frequent.
    I love how friendly all the staff are, they feel like family when we pick up our child. They always listen when we have additional needs.

    This was my son’s first month at full-time nursery and away from me and Dad. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and have helped my little boy settle in very quickly. He seems so much more happier and confident within himself. The staff are extremely friendly to everyone and make it less daunting to leave your child, especially as a first-time Mum.

    Many thanks from the heart for all your hard work, love, dedication and patience to the children, and for keeping personal belongings in order (toys, clothes), helping with potty training, caring when they were not feeling well, making everyday a fun environment to go to which was also very important.
    My First Friend Nursery and all the lovely staff were part of both my son’s development and first stages in life and helped prepare them for school through creative and educational activities.
    They also learnt the months of the year, the days of the week, the numbers, etc, through play and songs that were easy to memorise.
    A big thank you to all the team.

    Since my child has gone back to this nursery, she’s so much happier in herself. She is progressing better with her communication and has made friends.
    The staff are great and listen to your concerns and really put your mind at ease. Nothing is too much bother.

    Positive experiences with this nursery.
    Management is easily accessible and has provided flexibility and assisted in booking additional sessions which is greatly appreciated.
    The app is good, staff provide continuity and regular updates. Staff always make time to communicate at the end of the day.

    Couldn’t have asked for anything more. All the staff are lovely and so caring to all the kids. My daughters absolutely love going there and feel so comfortable. It means so much to see your children happy and comfortable and I feel so at ease leaving them to play with all their friends.

    My daughter has been in nursery since October 2022 and I am extremely pleased with how well her development has come along. At first, I was quite nervous leaving my child with strangers but I was always rest assured by the app that she was ok with regular updates and when collecting her on an evening time.
    I want to give a special thanks to all the key workers who have started this journey with her as they have been fantastic! She loves going to nursery and she has come such a long way, I’m excited to see more of her character coming out in the next few months/years. The regular parents’ evening updates are also great for both me and her father to sit there and see how well she is doing. Thank you My First Friends, Rubery! – if I could rate higher, I would.

    The nursery staffs are excellent and very caring for my child. I would rate 5 stars for them. On the downside, the finance team is awful, money-minded and charges for all the bank holidays even if the child comes only 2 days a week. They are not helpful in citing terms and conditions. It is not the best value for money.

    I could not rate this Nursery any higher! Since my child has started here he has come on leaps and bounds in terms of his development, the communication from the nursery is excellent, the staff are amazing and you can tell how much they truly care about the children.
    The facilities are excellent with lots of open space and activities, especially the outdoor space which my child particularly loves.
    I could not recommend this nursery enough to anyone who is looking for a childcare provider for their little ones!

    This nursery is outstanding by all measures, my child’s progress is so visible in speech, social skills and confidence especially! The staff is superb and always helpful, my girl loves that place! I would recommend this place to anyone with peace of mind!

    The nursery does go above and beyond for me and my son, he’s been going through lots of tests at the hospital and as a single mum, the nursery have been nothing but supportive. I will never stop telling people to send their children here.

    My son has had lots of improvement until now. He has just started to go to the nursery since April 2023. He has improved in language and development. Thanks a lot to the staff, who are perfect and supportive. Excellent!

    Friendly staff, pleased with all of the activities and learning activities for both daughter and son of different ages. The sorting of bags and personal items could be a bit more organised, as this is a task for parents and staff most evenings on pick up.

    Our son has been going to My First Friends in Rubery for the last 3 years.
    Over this time the staff here have been so wonderful. The ladies have been so attentive with the children and teaching our son and the children a wide range of skills. My son has come out of his shell so much. The management staff have been fantastic. The manager has been an amazing manager, whenever I pass the office she is always extremely hard at working away ensuring the best practices are applied within the nursery, however, both of the ladies have been very amazing and fantastic in the running of the nursery and always master everything with very high standards and at the same time, despite how busy they are, always have time for the mom’s and dad’s of the children whether for a general chat or advice when needed. Lovely nursery/ excellent staff and amazing management make My First Friends a joy for our son to be part of.

    My 4-year-old daughter joined this beautiful nursery in January 2023. She loves going to the nursery. Her skills developed more, she can draw and write some of the numbers and the alphabet. She loves all her teachers. She’s well looked after. Would love to thank them for all their help and for getting back to me without delay. Glad to have my daughter in this beautiful and well-organised nursery.
