    The personnel are really warm and supportive, the environment appears to us to be exceptionally secure and nurturing and the little one often surprises us with the loveliest things that we can only assume were learnt there. We could stay there all day long watching, honestly. We make up for it by spying through the window at dropoff and pickup times. We are extremely pleased with The Mulberry Bush and how well our kid is doing there. If anything, we miss an opportunity to see the baby in action there, perhaps with visits, photos, or similar. We would suggest this childcare centre to any parents.

    Our young lady leaves every day with a smile on her face and her reaching of life milestones is clear to see. Our girl started at 5 months old and right from the first day we were put at ease around the attention and attention she got, despite being the youngest there by a matter of months. All the girls are great, delighted, hard working and genuinely invested in the kids. Great nursery setting and thoroughly recommended.

    Room for improvement on making sure those kids not in for the full week benefit from celebrations on special days, we found this was exceptionally much centred on days our youngster was not there which was unfair. My little one has been at the childcare centre for nearly 2.5 years and overall the time has been positive. Their team are truly caring and kind to the kids as a whole.

    All the personnel have been excellent, and we would definitely endorse this childcare centre to anyone. Our two daughters go to The Mulberry Bush, and both treasure it, and both settled in extremely quickly.

    The personnel are great and the activities they do are fun, wide ranging and developmental. My little one and young lady both really enjoy their time at The Mulberry Bush. I couldn’t be happier.

    All three of our little ones have joined the Mulberry Bush and have absolutely enjoyed it. We would enthusiastically suggest the Mulberry Bush to anyone (and have done so many times!). We will be exceptionally unhappy to say goodbye when our youngest leaves later this year. The level of attention and attention is fantastic, the personnel could not be more lovely and we felt that our youngsters were in a truly safe and nurturing space.

    The personnel are welcoming and enthusiastic and take a real interest in our daughter’s progress. The Halloween party that the early‑years hub organised, was truly thoughtful. Our little one is always exceptionally thrilled going into the nursery setting. My husband and I would suggest The Mulberry Bush early‑years hub to any parent/guardian.

    He enjoys his meals in early‑years hub and his eating and contact have enhanced significantly. He adores going in now and is exceptionally thrilled when we collect him. From the start of our boy joining the childcare centre, crew have been truly patient, accommodating and helpful in helping him settle. We have already recommended The Mulberry Bush to our friends. He always participates in a diverse range of activities from sensory games, arts and crafts, baking, messy activities and outdoor activities.

    I would enthusiastically suggest this childcare centre. The crew are always warm and welcoming, they provide a variety of activities for the kids every day and a varied diet. My young lad is content attending on his designated days.

    We as parents would wholeheartedly suggest The Mulberry Bush nursery setting. The Mulberry Bush early‑years hub provide a fantastic service, they are attentive, caring and truly supportive. We particularly like the small groups, we are self‑assured our little one is looked after truly well.

    The vast majority of the personnel have been at the nursery setting for years and this journey is really important for us. They are all exceptionally welcoming and approachable, including the management team and owner, which is a great comfort.

    My kids are definitely part of the Mulberry Bush family. I would enthusiastically suggest it to any family out there. The crew are always welcoming and accommodating and there is a lovely homely feel about the childcare centre. My youngsters are always delighted going to early‑years hub and miss it at the weekends and holidays! An all round great place and as a mother, I have peace of mind that my kids are pleased, content and protected. The food served is delicious (so I’m told) and healthy too.

    She really enjoys going and talks about all the things she has done that day in the nursery setting and about friends she has made. My young lady has been at the early‑years hub since October 2020. The youngsters are so well cared for and I have no worries at all when my young lady is there. The team are brilliant and always so kind to talk to and my young lady always has a big smile and a wave for them when she sees them waiting at the door! The meals they provide too, my girl really enjoys and she is usually so fussy with food at home! She has thrived since starting there, especially over covid it has been brilliant that they have worked so hard over the pandemic ensuring safety for themselves and the little ones. I wholeheartedly advocate the Mulberry Bush to anyone.

    Our young lad has had a great period at The Mulberry Bush. He has developed really well within the time he has been there. A great family-run nursery setting.

    It is a caring space with welcoming and accommodating crew. My two daughters enrol at and have always adored it. Lots of resources and outside space for all ages.

    The team are all exceptionally caring and thrilled to spend time talking to us at the end of each day to let us know how he is getting on. Our little one has been at The Mulberry Bush for over a year now after settling in extremely quickly. We are truly pleased with our choice. I asked my friend for a childcare centre advocacy and am exceptionally glad she recommended The Mulberry Bush to us.

    It is clear to see from the start that the Mulberry Bush are a group of caring people, who take an interest in your kids and their wellbeing. Our kids settled in extremely quickly and the Mulberry Bush’s routine and activities have added to their growth and progress. When collecting them, you can see that they are having fun and really enjoying their time there. I would endorse it wholeheartedly to anyone in the area, a great journey for your kids and peace of mind for parents.

    My youngster has settled in so well at Mulberry Bush – she enjoys it. No electronic way to check on your kid during the day (with iPad’s etc) but otherwise, extremely pleased and would enthusiastically advocate it. All the personnel are kind and supportive. She’s there four days a week and now waves me off at the door.

    They’ve helped make me feel relaxed in such a challenging year. Very approachable. Staff are so great with my little one. He puts his arms out for them everyday and with COVID19 that isn’t common. Great daycare.

    I would wholeheartedly suggest this childcare centre site to any parent. The personnel are excellent and they have a wide range of activities for the kids. We are sending both our daughters there now and they are having great fun every day.
