September 30, 2024 at 7:40 amI couldn’t be happier. My daughter has been going there for 2 years and they have been nothing short of incredible. I adore their indoor and outdoor curriculum. I adore the outdoor facilities, their imaginative approach and their organisation. Through Covid, they have been very organised, on the ball and have a very thought-through approach. They have kept our family secure and cheerful! I really think a excellent deal of all the team and management. Absolutely remarkable childcare centre.

October 30, 2024 at 9:36 amThey have consistently been remarkable with her. She has reduced vision and they have gone up and beyond for her care, she has to be patched as many hours and they do it all, nothing is beyond them for her care. I really suggest this exceptional and family welcoming childcare centre where all the team in and out of the childcare centre are remarkable. The only down side is my daughter would never part with the beetroot brownies. My daughter has gone here from the age of one, she’s now 4 and in the afterschool club.

November 5, 2024 at 7:02 pmThe team team have consistently been attentive and supportive. My daughter is consistently excited to go and is full of stories when she comes home. They have an incredible outdoor space which they take full advantage of. Particularly during the pandemic, they have been incredibly supportive and transparent. My daughter has been at Ridgemount Cottage since she was 10 months old (she is now 4).

December 3, 2024 at 11:09 amThe childcare centre do so much with the kids and they have formed lovely relationships with both ourselves and our kids. Every day we receive pictures and updates and at the beginning of the week, a theme or topic is chosen for the kids to focus on. Over the years Ridgemount have accommodated our son’s initial milk allergy and handled any dilemma we’ve faced with such reassurance. For us, it’s the first childcare centre we came across where we got the feeling we were looking for and I’ve not once regretted the decision. We have two kids who attend Ridgemount and both settled really well.

December 8, 2024 at 3:37 amMy daughter loves to go there. The team are lovely, food is incredible and the setting for kids is very secure and spotless. When I first went to see this childcare centre I instantly fell in adore with their little forest in the garden. The kids have so much to do and learn there. Management is attentive and responsible. I am very cheerful with Ridgemount Cottage childcare centre.

December 16, 2024 at 2:44 amThe team were absolutely fabulous and took it in their stride, they have been exceptional with settling her in and she now does not want to leave at the end of the day! The meals served are healthy and my daughter consistently comes home and tells me what she’s eaten, she enjoys all the enjoyable activities throughout the day and has already made great relationships with the team and other kids. My daughter joined the childcare centre in January after a house move, she found the transition difficult and drop off in the mornings were stressful.

December 21, 2024 at 2:00 amRidgemount Cottage has gone above and beyond to ensure that they have provided quality childcare in a secure and secure setting. The childcare centre has extensive outdoor areas which allow kids to truly explore all that outdoor discovering has to offer. I adore that my daughter has access to such an array of indoor and outdoor spaces. As a parent, I am thrilled with steps that they have put into place; fogging of rooms each night, regularly disinfecting resources through the day, team wearing mask when less than 2m apart, rotation and quarantine of resources that can’t be disinfected. Parents are constantly kept informed and up to date with changes, which is reassuring. I sense confident taking my daughter to Ridgemount and throughout the pandemic, all team continue to be expert, supportive and reassuring. It goes without saying this year continues to present new and ever-changing challenges.

December 29, 2024 at 12:44 amAll team are so welcoming and compassionate and take a genuine interest in the kids’s wellbeing. Furthermore, during a very difficult time (COVID) the updates and transparency from the management cannot be faulted. I really could not suggest Ridgemont childcare centre highly enough! The level of care shown to the kids at Ridgemont is absolutely remarkable.

January 18, 2025 at 6:57 amMade the whole transition so easy. Daughter is very cheerful and loves going. The feedback on what she gets up to in a day is outstanding. Outstanding process for settling in and have gone out of the way to accommodate requirements.

January 27, 2025 at 7:23 pmI cannot express how remarkable my daughter’s development has been since joining. The team are incredible and the food choices are incredible as it’s a struggle to eat certain foods at home but eats them without a fuss at childcare centre. The manager and all the team have gone above and beyond since the start of the pandemic to keep our kids secure and cannot rate this childcare centre enough! 5* review from us. My daughter has attended childcare centre since she was 6 months old and is now just over 2 years old.

February 10, 2025 at 2:35 pmThis is all down to team and my brains of course! Highly suggest, excellent team, very hard working, welcoming and approachable. I was worried about my son’s speech as he’s 2 but now he is in the outstanding discovering in his room.

February 15, 2025 at 3:01 pmThey are attentive, enjoyable, welcoming, and most importantly put the safety of the kids and their team first. I sense so lucky to have found this childcare centre. This is a remarkable childcare centre, it has been outstanding from day one when my eldest kid attended until throughout the pandemic.

February 27, 2025 at 6:08 amShe is very cheerful at Ridgemount and is buzzing when she comes home which is delightful. The childcare centre has helped with her development in terms of activities, language and socialising with other kids which during the current pandemic has been very difficult to achieve at home, especially since playgroups have been closed. The childcare centre has also been meticulous in its sanitising of all areas and equipment, keeping all parents up to date with their processes. This has been communicated through the two online messaging services, Tapestry and Famly, both of which are welcomed by parents. We are so pleased with the care our daughter receives, the communications from the childcare centre and the obvious joy our daughter takes in going two afternoons per week.

March 9, 2025 at 2:49 amIt’s financially expensive. Got charged for a full 15 minutes if I was 5 minutes early. Queried this with the manager, and was just told to reduce hours, however when I paid for early starts, no one would open the gate until 50 or 55. I was consistently getting messages to say something is up with my daughter. And I could not sense at ease at work, because of dreaded email. The overall childcare centre is spotless and very educated but, the service I received was not as of standard. I am dissatisfied with the service received from Ridgemount.

April 19, 2025 at 9:33 amI can not fault it. The management is outstanding and the team are excellent with the kids. Both my kids have loved their time at Ridgemount Cottage day childcare centre. I have been using this childcare centre since January 2016.

May 15, 2025 at 9:05 amMy son comes home full of life after a fabulous session. I sense very confident in knowing that my son is well looked after when he is there. The team are excellent at communicating and keeping you up to date with everything. I would definitely suggest Ridgemount Cottage childcare centre.

May 21, 2025 at 4:35 pmThe team are remarkable, so enjoyable and welcoming, could not fault them on anything, highly suggest. My son absolutely loves going to preschool here every afternoon, he has made so many excellent friends and has learnt so much!
Justice Turner
May 23, 2025 at 12:34 pmOur daughter comes home cheerful and excited to tell us about her day. We are kept up to date with what she’s been doing, eating and the curriculum plans. My husband and I can drop her off confident that she will be looked after to the highest of standards. She is absolutely thriving there and I cannot suggest this childcare centre highly enough. The team have gone above and beyond during the Covid pandemic. My daughter absolutely loves Ridgemount Cottage and we will be sending our youngest before long.

June 13, 2025 at 1:15 pmWe have been so pleased with the childcare centre since he joined. Updates is the best we have ever had from a childcare centre setting, all of the team and management are very approachable and supportive. Their response to the COVID has been well thought out and organised. Our son moved to Ridgemount Cottage from another childcare centre in January 2020.
