March 23, 2021 at 12:00 amHaving looked around a large number of nurseries, I can confidently say that none of the nursery settings in Haywards Heath come close to what Perfect Start Day Nursery – Haywards Heath can offer. The facilities are stylish, clean and functional with toys and equipment that is high quality, providing the perfect environment for children to learn and have fun in. What really makes the difference in this nursery is the staff. A special mention to one member of staff, who has been my sons key worker since he joined. His key worker is full of enthusiasm, professionalism and energy. Another member of staff takes a very genuine interest in the children and is always a pleasure to talk to on pick ups. I would recommend this nursery wholeheartedly, each morning my son can’t wait to spend the day with his friends and I am so grateful to the staff for all that they do.

March 31, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been at the nursery for nearly two years and she has always loved going.
She is currently in the toddlers room and gets excited, telling us the names of all the staff she is going to see and play with, as well as all her friends. The staff are really friendly and helpful and you can see that they love what they do, ensuring the children feel relaxed with them and enjoy their time there while still learning. We have signed our son up as well and we would not think to go anywhere else. The only thing I would recommend is having more variety for the meals and changing the plans more frequently.

April 23, 2021 at 12:00 amI was extremely anxious about sending my one year old to nursery but have found Perfect Start Day Nursery – Haywards Heath to be excellent. They certainly care for the happiness and well-being of the children and I feel confident that my child is being looked after properly when in their care. I couldn’t recommend them enough.

May 3, 2021 at 12:00 amOur son started at this nursery in February 2019 and always looks forward to going in. There are so many different and fun activities on offer everyday and he is always excited to tell me what he got up to.The staff are wonderful and really care for the children. They provide us with daily reports and I feel that they really invest time in getting to know each individual child. The food is great and my son often has second and third portions! Highly recommended.

May 3, 2021 at 12:00 amWe love Perfect Start Day Nursery – Haywards Heath, our daughter is so happy there! Her language has developed so much in such a short space of time and she has become so much more inquisitive since starting! She has made friends and is so happy. We are incredibly grateful to all the staff team who care for our little girl so well!

February 17, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has felt happy and settled since day one. His key worker and all the ladies in his room know everything about him and I love that he goes up to them for hugs when we arrive in the morning. What’s so lovely is everyone knows him so well even in the older rooms, it feels like one big happy family. There are always lots of different activities set up for the kids and I love getting pictures of all the fun things my son gets up to throughout the day. He absolutely loves the food, which is healthy and varied. Since starting he has learnt so much, he comes home singing and is saying lots of words, as well as using sign language, they clearly spend a lot of time engaging with him throughout the day, he comes home so happy!

March 16, 2022 at 12:00 amMy 11-month-old daughter has been going to the nursery for almost 4 months now and we absolutely love it. It’s wonderful seeing our daughter getting excited about going to the nursery and jumping to hug her carers in the morning.
The staff are always friendly and welcoming and they really make an effort to get to know each child. They have a multitude of activities ready for them every day and I love that they are allowed to get messy. The pictures posted on ParentZone are a plus and they always make my day. She’s learning so many new things that have a positive effect on her. She has become more confident and sociable and I have the staff to thank for that, for how supportive and encouraging they are.
The rooms are separated according to age but not isolated so that the staff can help each other out. I have only experienced the under two’s room and am happy it’s a stimulating and playful environment, a place where I can leave my little one and know she’s safe and well looked after.

March 16, 2022 at 12:00 amAbsolutely tremendous nursery, I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. We moved to the area, which meant a new start for our two toddlers and the team couldn’t have been friendlier to make our kids feel welcome. All of the team are so caring and patient with the children. The nursery has such a lovely feel and I’m particularly jealous of the food each time I pick the kids up.

March 16, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth of our children attend Perfect Start (in the baby room and older toddlers) and they absolutely love it. As soon as they each started they settled really quickly and built great bonds with all the staff, not just their key workers. Every member of staff seems to know their names and genuinely cares for them both.
They’re teaching our kids so much and really helping us as parents to make sure that they’re flourishing and doing their best. The management team is amazing, and always there when we need them. They’ve also been excellent at keeping us up to date with changes during the pandemic.
The food is always nutritious and creative and they enjoy the meals there.
Most importantly, they’re both extremely happy there and though they’re full time seem to always be smiling and laughing when we pick them up at the end of the day.
I can’t rate the entire team highly enough.

March 18, 2022 at 12:00 amI cannot recommend Perfect Start Haywards Heath enough! I have one child in Pre-School and one in Under 2s and I have been incredibly happy with the nursery since my eldest started 3 years ago. We moved 30 minutes away and still drive the boys to Perfect Start because we don’t think anywhere else could match the facilities and wonderful staff. The range of activities they plan for all ages is phenomenal – no two days at the nursery are ever the same and the children’s interests are always catered for. They are well cared for and happy and as parents, we appreciate the regular updates, Facebook posts and communication we receive. Thank you Perfect Start for all you do!

March 28, 2022 at 12:00 amI think this is a fantastic nursery. My daughter is currently in the younger toddlers room and it is a great place for her to make friends, learn and develop. I feel like all of the staff know the children really well, and they seem to genuinely enjoy looking after them. All of the activities they set up look great and my daughter always comes home chatting about them, or singing new songs that she has learned.
The sign language that is taught has also been great as it has helped my daughter learn to communicate much more effectively as she learns to talk. It has made a huge difference.
I think all of the staff, from management through to the team in the room, do a really good job and I really appreciate all of the effort that they put in.

March 28, 2022 at 12:00 amOur daughter has attended for about a year and absolutely loves it. It’s so nice to see her happily run off into her room each morning. She’s learned and developed a huge amount over the period and seems very well looked after.

April 15, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been coming here since she was 1 and is now in the younger toddler room. She absolutely loves it and always comes home very happy (and exhausted!)
The staff are all amazing and it’s lovely to see how my daughter interacts with everyone. What with Covid it’s done her the world of good and her speech etc has come on so much. She even learnt sign language early on so was able to communicate with us from an early age. The younger toddler room has increased her confidence in playing with others and learning how to share.
Can’t recommend the staff/nursery highly enough – they all know my daughter by name and I don’t feel guilty leaving her there as I know she’s in great hands and having lots of fun.
Thank you!

July 11, 2022 at 12:00 amIf you want your child prepared for school…choose somewhere else!
We had our son here from age 2.5 up to preschool. He has come out developmentally delayed by some stretch and is now having to repeat reception. Some of that may just be how he is, but some of the fault can certainly be put with Perfect Start. We found the preschool room is not strictly made up of children that were preschool ages, ie. 3-4 but younger and there were too many kids to assistant ratios so I’m not sure how much 1:1 time he got… if any, he was often left to his own devices to play all day. High turnover of staff, there were 4 different managers during our time there and countless different assistants, mostly young and inexperienced.
When it came to his time to leave Perfect Start, despite them marking him as passing all areas of the EYFS, he could not pick up or use a pencil! I’m not entirely sure what they are doing in preschool but it’s certainly not preparing them for school.
Would not recommend.

August 23, 2022 at 12:00 amFrom the first moment we walked into the nursery we knew this was the place for our son. The venue itself is well equipped and welcoming. The staff are always smiling and attentive and nothing is too much trouble. It’s such a relief to drop your child off for the day knowing he will have a great time always.

September 7, 2022 at 12:00 amAn all-round fantastic nursery with wonderful staff! My daughter has had some mobility issues due to a temporary condition and the staff could not do enough to help her and make her feel comfortable and involved! She always has a fantastic time and has learnt so much I am amazed every time we collect her. Food is wonderful and the equipment is second to none.
Very pleased that we chose Perfect Start Day Nursery and fully expect my daughter to be there for years to come!

December 21, 2022 at 12:00 amPerfect Start at Haywards Heath is wonderful. Our child loves it there. The staff are fantastic, and they are so good at keeping in touch with parents. The facilities are great. Would give it more stars if I could!

January 17, 2023 at 12:00 amPerfect Start is a really friendly and welcoming place to walk in to. The staff always say hello and my child has settled in really well. I have seen a massive improvement for the best in my child. My child didn’t like to leave me and my partner when she first started and now we can’t get her to leave to come home. Management and staff are always around to talk to for advice and will always give you 100%. We looked at a handful of nurseries and feel this nursery gave the best facilities and care for my child.

March 30, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has recently joined the baby room and I cannot praise his key worker and all of the incredible staff enough.
They take so much care to ensure he’s having the best day and are always updating me and my husband on his feeds and naps.
It’s such a special nursery, we feel very lucky to be a part of it.
