September 2, 2024 at 4:23 amThis is by far the best childcare centre ever. Kids do not just playtime, they are taught and encouraged to keep discovering, writing, and awarded for doing well. My son quickly learnt to write numbers from 1 – 10 at the age of three. It’s such a positive place and I would highly suggest this childcare centre. My son went to two nurseries before Sunnylands and the difference was incredible.

I’m a trained childcare centre nurse so I found it incredibly hard when looking around nurseries but I just fell in adore with Sunnylands and the team. It’s a 5-star childcare centre. Sunnylands have made a massive impact on my little boy.

September 18, 2024 at 11:55 amThe childcare centre is an outstanding example of great kid care. The team nurture and care for the kids while encouraging them to take the first steps of independence. They teach manners, great values and how to be compassionate to each other. It is the perfect stepping stone when entering reception. They go on to enter into school like confident, decent kids. I cannot suggest highly enough. This is our second kid to enter this childcare centre and we were excited for her to start.

September 24, 2024 at 1:18 amThe team are consistently more than cheerful to help.
I have made the team aware that my kid has a speech delay and they have set my daughter some pictures to learn the sounds that are associated, which my kid has now achieved.
The team have a scheme where stories and books can be exchanged every week. The letter books are highly useful and supporting my kid to learn new words.
My kid is discovering to potty train and the team are highly supportive whilst we are trying to achieve this. My son had previously been to this childcare centre and learnt a lot from his journey.
I was highly cheerful to place my second kid into this childcare centre. Sunnylands Childcare centre is outstanding.

September 28, 2024 at 2:00 pmMy daughter attends 5 days a week, since starting at Sunnylands childcare centre in September 2016 she has learnt so much. She loves coming home with stickers and certificates of achievements such as star of the day. The childcare centre team are highly attentive and consistently there to talk too. Lovely, positive childcare centre.

November 6, 2024 at 4:28 pmThe team nurture and care for the kids and show excellent assistance and dedication to all. They provide a highly high standard of education. However, they treated each kid as an individual and adapt their discovering depending on each kid’s need. My kid has developed both academically and socially, and we sense she is highly well prepared to start school in September. Most importantly, she skips in every day and consistently comes out smiling. Sunnylands Childcare centre is an outstanding childcare centre.

November 10, 2024 at 1:25 amShe has made outstanding development both academically and socially during her time here. She enjoys discovering through a variety of playtime-based activities and the extra opportunities that are offered to her. She is well-looked after, enjoys delicious home-cooked lunches and consistently comes home with a smile. We are highly pleased with her pre-school education and sense that she will be well prepared to start school in September. Our daughter loves attending childcare centre.

November 15, 2024 at 5:30 amShe has made such incredible development and has truly thrived with the assistance and dedication from the childcare centre team. She has been fully prepared for her start to Primary education. As parents, we are also delighted that the childcare centre has upheld our values to ensure she is polite, supportive and compassionate to others. We could not be happier with the care and attention our little girl has had since she started at Sunnylands Childcare centre.

December 26, 2024 at 7:48 amThe team are inviting, welcoming and highly efficient – I cannot speak highly enough of them. They foster great relationships with families and consistently have time to discuss the kids, which keeps parents well informed and involved. They instil self‑assurance, great manners and knowledge with excellent emphasis on ensuring each kid achieves a positive early year discovering journey. The kids are highly praised and rewarded for their achievements and encouraged to express their individuality. They are also well stimulated throughout the day with various enjoyable and educational activities tailored to the different needs and interests. Healthy eating is highly well promoted and with an incredible well equipped and secured outdoor space, the kids also delight in a wide range of physical activities.
My son has learned so much and absolutely loves being at childcare centre. Sunnylands is a remarkable childcare centre and offers a loving spotless setting with facilities which provides a wide range of activities for kids.

January 15, 2025 at 4:51 amThe team are like family, they are highly welcoming and attentive for my son.
My son is cheerful to leave me and get busy with his educators. Any questions or concerns I have had over my son they have dealt with straight away. My son recently joined Sunnylands Childcare centre and I can not praise the childcare centre enough for the excellent work they have done with him.
Phoenix Mayer
January 24, 2025 at 2:00 pmShe has matured so much. I have seen a massive change. The team members are incredible. They know and understand her so well. She definitely has received a balanced care from the team. I will definitely suggest this childcare centre. Sunnylands Childcare centre has made a fantastic impact on my daughter’s life.
Emerson Taylor
February 15, 2025 at 5:53 amFrom our initial visit, I knew it was the best place for her to learn and grow. The team are qualified and well equipped, they have a modern discovering approach but retain the old fashioned values which I sense is so important.
The childcare centre setting is secure, well equipped, stimulating and enjoyable, there is sound continuity between home and childcare centre and the team are highly approachable. There are lots of discovering opportunities offered, from French to music & movement, ICT, literacy and numeracy, they are truly preparing kids for school.
I would suggest Sunnylands Childcare centre to any parent who is looking for early years education for their kid. My daughter started at Sunnylands Childcare centre in September 2016.
Alex Griffin
April 11, 2025 at 12:28 pmI wanted him to develop his literacy and numeracy skills, whilst socialising and playing with other polite and well-behaved kids in a secure and attentive setting – Sunnylands delivered this exactly. The childcare centre team are remarkable. They got to know my son and tailored discovering and playtime to his interests. They cared about his emotional development and supported him when he was slightly unsettled by our house move. The team are knowledgable, approachable and expert – they’re a high-quality team. The childcare centre itself has lots of outdoor space which my son loved playing in. He also enjoyed the French lesson and music/dance time too. Yoga was a particular highlight! My son has left Sunnylands more than ready for school. He is confident of his abilities and his character within a class. He has developed a adore of discovering. I can’t praise the childcare centre enough. They have delivered everything I hoped they would and more. As a teacher myself, I wanted a specific setting for my son.
Drew Delaney
April 15, 2025 at 12:32 amIt’s an exceptional place. We originally looked around the setting for our son, who would start in the main school the following year.
We looked around the childcare centre on a return visit we had booked as we fell in adore with the setting.
We immediately transferred our son to Sunnylands in September 2022.
He had previously attended another setting but never settled and seemed unhappy there.
At Sunnylands, he settled instantly, as the team were so inviting and welcoming.
The main thing that stuck out was the consistency and familiarity with the team in the childcare centre and their breadth of knowledge regarding separation anxiety.
They sent home books, gave cuddles and communicated through a parent/teacher notebook.
They are a remarkable team and show our family such adore and kindness, which is hard to portray in a review.
The rooms are kitted out with every piece of equipment and discovering materials that you can imagine.
They learn French, cook weekly and follow the seasons through discovering and playtime.

May 10, 2025 at 9:10 pmMy little boy has been going for a year now and he has come on so much, his reading, counting, colours, manners and just in so many ways. All the educators are so nice and cannot do enough for any of the little ones or adults. As I say, I just do not have enough nice words for them and the setup.
Absolutely exceptional. Thank you. I cannot say enough great things about Sunnylands.

May 20, 2025 at 9:46 pmI have seen my daughter blossom since being at Sunnylands. I like the structure and predictable routine.
The assistance is excellent for the kids and my daughter is cheerful every single day. Outstanding provision.
Sidney Blair
May 22, 2025 at 9:28 amWhat a compassionate and loving setting for my kid to learn and prepare for school.
The team have such a wealth of knowledge.
We sense at ease leaving our second kid in their care.
My first kid came to Sunnylands and remembers the childcare centre with such warmth.
There is nowhere else I would send my kids.
Finley Ferguson
May 28, 2025 at 12:03 amHe is highly supportive, his vocabulary and speech have improved and he is generally cheerful to attend childcare centre. We are highly pleased with his development thus far and are looking forward to seeing more improvements as he continues to grow while attending this school. It has only been a month since my 3-year-old son started at Sunnylands Childcare centre and we have seen a dramatic improvement in his academic and social development.
Arden Mayer
June 5, 2025 at 2:32 amThe expansion of my son’s interests has also been incredible. The team are consistently welcoming and well‑informed and you cannot help but sense that your kid is in the best possible discovering setting. Consistently excited to go and consistently cheerful when leaving.
I could not be happier with our choice of childcare centre. Having come from a highly competent childminder into the childcare centre I was not expecting the significant level of improvement that we have witnessed.
Blake Reid
June 23, 2025 at 2:48 pmThe team are remarkable and the kids are discovering far more than they did at a previous childcare centre.
I would not hesitate to suggest the childcare centre to any parent considering sending their kids to it. The kids are highly highly cheerful at Sunnylands.
