July 22, 2019 at 12:00 amMy daughter goes to St Thoma’s Day Nursery Monday to Friday 8-1pm. I cannot honestly fault this nursery! The care is exceptional! All staff members are so dedicated to making sure your child is safe in their care! My daughter has a smile on her face every single day and to know that she is happy and settled within the nursery makes me as a parent, feel at complete ease!

July 25, 2019 at 12:00 amMy daughter was quiet and not too happy at starting childcare when we first started here. Right from the beginning, the staff have been amazing, helping her to settle in and basing their activities on what the kids would like to do. When my daughter was learning to paint and draw, she loved decorating the walls with her pictures, so they let her fill a wall and from then on, she has loved it here. She has gone from shy to confident in no time at all, she can’t wait to go in the mornings and more than once has told me she is not coming home as she is having too much fun!
The staff are full of patience and definitely have a way with children that makes them feel at ease. To my daughter, they are extended family now, something that you just can’t find in the bigger chain nurseries. I cannot recommend this place enough!

May 24, 2021 at 12:00 amIf you are looking for a nursery for your little one, don’t look any further, as St Thomas’ Day Nursery is the perfect place for all children. My son was 3-years-Old when he started to go to the nursery. I was really worried as he had never been away from me and it was just after lockdown, so he wasn’t used to strangers. Yet, it only took a couple of weeks for him to settle in and it is down to the wonderful care and support he has been getting from the staff at this fantastic family run nursery. The nursery offers delicious and nutritious on-site cooked meals, which my son loves so much he usually has second helpings!
If you decide to go for this nursery, your child will be well cared for, enjoy going to nursery and will be engaged throughout the day with different activities where their carers are involved too. All the staff are lovely and provide great feedback on how your little one was and what they did that day. I feel my son is happy and safe here and highly recommend this nursery.

July 14, 2022 at 12:00 amAll the staff at St Thomas’s have been so fantastic with both of my children. They are really good at keeping you informed throughout the day and at pick-up time. The staff are very warm and caring and have always given lots of support to our family. The activities they do with the kids are fun and help them all to develop important skills. They are very flexible and accommodating to all the children and parents. We couldn’t ask for a better nursery!

July 14, 2022 at 12:00 amSt Thomas’s Day Nursery is a wonderful nursery who really cares, supports and knows their children and families. Communication with parents is fantastic. This made me feel confident right from the start. Information send home using the app is informative and lovely to have pictures too. The size of the nursery means that all the staff know all the children and my children have built up some lovely close bonds with not just their key workers but all the grown-ups there. I think this is the main reason St Thomas’s Day Nursery is such an amazing nursery because they obviously really look after their staff who in turn look after the children so well. The activities they do are really well planned and engaging and have developed my son so much since he started. His speech, eating and social skills have come on tenfold. The food must be delicious because my very picky son eats two portions most lunchtimes. Both my children run in excited in the morning and are so happy there, I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery!

August 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has been at St Thomas’ since he was 11 months old, and he loves it. He’s now 2, and loves his couple of days at nursery. The staff are all so friendly, and communication with parents is brilliant. We get to see lots of pictures on the app about his day and the variety of meals he gets to have. Lovely nursery, very welcoming and accommodating with our shifts.

August 8, 2022 at 12:00 amExcellent nursery, my child thrives here, the nursery staff all know the children so well and help them to develop from babies to well rounded pre-schoolers. The nursery is set in a lovely spot and being a smaller nursery it gives a more homely and family feeling compared to bigger national run nurseries.

August 8, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son goes to St Thomas’ Day Nursery and he absolutely loves it! The staff are incredible, the building and outdoor space are fantastic and the nursery has amazing resources and learning tools. Our son has come on absolutely fantastic from the time he started when he was 9 months old. Our son was born prematurely and the staff have always been amazing with him, making sure they all knew about his individual needs and supported him accordingly! He is now 3 and asks to go to ‘school’ even on the weekends! Wouldn’t want our son going to any other nursery and any children that we have in the future will attend St Thomas’ too! We can’t thank the staff enough.

August 10, 2022 at 12:00 amI am extremely pleased with St Thomas’s Day nursery. My child is always happy to go and really enjoys it whilst there. She learns lots and is very happy to talk about what she has done during her day. The day is structured with lots of opportunities for learning, and the staff are always very helpful, happy and flexible.
