September 18, 2024 at 10:30 pmMy daughter started just before the Covid pandemic when she was approximately 8 months old, she was born with a dairy allergy, and they were outstanding at supporting me with that and taking steps introducing dairy. As you can imagine it was a difficult time during the pandemic and took a while to settle when I reduced her hours to one day per week, but they all persevered with her and worked really hard to build that relationship with her in the Blossoms room. When her hours increased back up to three days, she really did start to settle, and it only took a week or so for this to happen. She grew too big for blossoms, so had to move up to caterpillars, she absolutely loves it, and she has made some very cute friends. All the girls that look after the kids are enjoyable, welcoming, attentive, patient, and the know their stuff. Couldn’t be happier with the care that my 18-month-old is receiving. When your kid gets physically excited upon entering the childcare centre car park, you know you are into a winner!

September 27, 2024 at 12:19 pmOur son has started to develop so quickly, his self‑assurance has soared and he’s hit milestones quicker than we expected. We do believe this is down to him attending The Orange Tree. The girls who look after him in blossoms are remarkable. So compassionate and loving towards the kids – he has built such a bond with them.
Our son has a milk allergy which has been fully catered for since he has attended.
We are kept informed all the time and truly do sense as though we can fully trust the team when we hand him over. We have never once worried or fretted about our decision to send him here and I think that is so important when you choose to place your kid in childcare centre. My son started attending The Orange Tree Day childcare centre just before he turned 1, doing a four day week.
We absolutely adore this childcare centre and the girls who work there are incredible.

October 15, 2024 at 8:08 pmThey are really attentive people and assistance you at their best. I wish it was more affordable though but this is not really the childcare centre’s decision, more or less it is the same range in the UK. It is a nice journey, my daughter loves it and to be fair this is the most important thing I think.

November 9, 2024 at 4:51 amThe team are the most supportive and incredible. They are very compassionate and that is reflected on my daughter’s relationship with her caregivers. She’s consistently cheerful to go to childcare centre and she has a excellent time there. She learns a lot as they do lots of educational and enjoyable activities. The childcare centre has shown excellent assistance and flexibility due to special health circumstances (mums) and they provided help when needed. I cannot thank them enough for making my daughter cheerful and looking after her during difficult times it really means a lot. As for my journey, I definitely suggest this childcare centre. This is one of the best nurseries in Derby.

November 12, 2024 at 3:22 amI really adore the way the rooms are set up and how attentive and passionate the carers are.
I also adore the food selection and the outdoor gardens, as my son loves exploring the outdoors. The Orange Tree Day childcare centre @Derby is remarkable.

December 10, 2024 at 7:55 pmShe is a year old. The team in the room are very inviting, and my daughter has responded really well to them, after being a lockdown baby with little exposure to others. The management is very responsive and supportive. They are very communicative and efficient in sending us information on our daughter’s day. They were very supportive and responsive when I asked for dietary changes. The childcare centre, itself, is very bright and well and newly decorated and has a homely sense. We would wholly suggest The Orange Tree to others in the area who are choosing a childcare centre. We have been very cheerful with how our daughter has got on in her first two months.

December 27, 2024 at 11:42 pmWe have loved the way she has been able to grow with the childcare centre. The team are incredible, consistently welcoming and supportive. They are outstanding at updates and provide varied discovering themes every day. We looked around a few nurseries before settling on the Orange Tree but haven’t regretted our decision at all. Most importantly; our daughter loves it and is excited to attend every day. My daughter has been at the childcare centre for nearly 2 years since she was 10 months old.

January 4, 2025 at 12:08 amMy little one started childcare centre when he was 10 months old and he’s just learnt so much from then to now. The team are all so welcoming, approachable and welcoming each time we drop and pick him up. I also adore the fact that we are kept up to date with his eating and discovering and development, with cute pictures of him throughout the week. If you’re looking for a childcare centre where your kid is so well looked after and will adore coming back each day, then look no further than the Orange Tree Day childcare centre. I really can’t suggest this childcare centre enough, they are exceptional with babies and kids.

February 22, 2025 at 9:36 amI have nothing but praise for the childcare centre, the team are fantastic and the childcare centre provides a enjoyable, attentive place for my daughter to learn. My daughter has been at Orange Tree from birth up to aged 4 when she leaves for school.

February 24, 2025 at 12:59 pmHe has been well supported at each stage of his development and now embraces the challenges of preschool. He has consistently been cheerful to attend childcare centre and the joy can be seen on his face in many pictures and videos sent through on the childcare centre app.
More recently he has faced a few milestones including becoming an older sibling and also potty training. His key worker during this time has supported him so well. She has consistently been super welcoming and enthusiastic whenever we have been in contact at drop-offs/pick-ups/parents evening etc, and she has kept us up to date with his development on the eylog too.
Our son looks forward to going to childcare centre and gets excited to see his keyworker. And we have felt very reassured and cheerful knowing how content he is at childcare centre. The admin team consistently respond swiftly and respectfully. We would definitely suggest this childcare centre to others. Our little boy is 3 and has attended The Orange Tree Day childcare centre since he was 11 months old.

March 6, 2025 at 7:43 amThe emphasis on the development of skills and behaviours is remarkable. The team are dedicated and compassionate and our kid has been able to build an outstanding rapport with each key worker. updates via the app or email is very great – we receive daily updates about what the class has been up to, meals and nap times. Roughly weekly we get a lovely individual report of something our kid has enjoyed with photos. There is also a regular parent’s evening to touch base or address concerns. I have also been reassured by the level of security and safeguarding at the childcare centre. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre to other parents. We have been very impressed with the level of care that our kid receives at The Orange Tree Day childcare centre @ Derby.

March 28, 2025 at 6:00 pmThey acted straight away to ensure my little one can be looked after by the lovely team per my extra requests. It has taken off a substantial amount of weight during a difficult time for the family. This is a perfect demonstration of a childcare centre that really cares, not just for your kid, but for the family as a whole. On top of this is the immaculate, enjoyable, bright rooms and facilities (we adore it at first visit), and a excellent team. I highly suggest The Orange Tree Day childcare centre to parents who are looking at options out there. Orange Tree’s team has been so expert and supportive when it comes to helping us out during a recent family emergency.

April 28, 2025 at 2:03 amThey work so hard to ensure that our son is cheerful and take extra precautions with his allergies and eczema. Can’t wait for him to move through the rooms and to learn more in preparation for school. We adore The Orange Tree Day childcare centre at Derby.

May 19, 2025 at 5:07 amOur little girl settled into her new childcare centre with ease and we watched her develop and blossom into the character she is today. We cannot rate The Orange Tree highly enough; welcoming, expert team, excellent flexibility, well maintained and spotless buildings and gardens, outstanding educators, not just playtime-workers, outdoor playtime in all weathers, forest school days, animal handling, baking, stories, dancing, singing, role playtime, water playtime, the list goes on! Covid-19 management was also well-executed. Our daughter left in July 2020 and has now started school. We honestly believe The Orange Tree have helped give her the best start and we would suggest this childcare centre to anyone who wants a secure, enjoyable, educational setting for their kid. Thank you to the whole team. We looked around two other nurseries in the immediate area and decided they weren’t for us so we were delighted when The Orange Tree opened in September 2018.

May 31, 2025 at 1:06 amMy son started here in September 2021 and I’ve consistently been impressed by what the childcare centre offers. It’s very spotless, the food is delicious (to the point where my son is often distinctly nonplussed by my offerings!) and the facilities are outstanding: lots of toys and activities and (best of all!) chickens and guinea pigs to fuss over! All of this is important but what makes this childcare centre is the team. attentive for very young kids isn’t easy, but the team do it with such warmth and adore and kindness that it really does shine through. I have never had the impression that attentive for my son is just a job for them. It feels very much as if I am dropping him off to his own family, such is the level of care he receives. I’m consistently impressed with their patience, their knowledge of individual kids and their adore. I warmly suggest this childcare centre to anyone looking for care for their kid. I really can’t praise this lovely childcare centre highly enough.

May 31, 2025 at 3:03 pmMy son is so cheerful coming here and moving up from caterpillars to butterflies has gone really well. It’s excellent for the social side and all the messy playtime. I can go to work cheerful knowing he’s having a excellent day. All the girls listen to my son’s needs and can tell me all about his day when I pick him up. I looked at several nurseries before knowing The Orange Tree was the one.
Alex Marsh
June 19, 2025 at 2:16 amEvery single member of team has welcomed him and me with open arms, whether that’s his care workers in his room, the team on reception or the cleaners, everyone has been so inviting and welcoming. When he first joined the childcare centre at the end of lockdown he found the transition quite hard but now happily goes to childcare centre and is excited to see his friends and the team. Thank you for helping to make this happen! My son has now been at childcare centre for just over a year and has moved from starting in the baby room to caterpillars and is now in butterflies.

June 22, 2025 at 1:58 pmHe goes in smiling and comes home smiling too. All of the team are fantastic! We are so cheerful that our youngest son attends The Orange Tree Day childcare centre, he adores the workers in his room!

July 9, 2025 at 5:29 pmThey have supported all areas of her development and have gone above and beyond in their care and assistance of her. The team are attentive, enjoyable & creative and provide a lovely atmosphere for her to learn and playtime in. She has loved every stage of her three years at this childcare centre and I would highly suggest The Orange Tree Day childcare centre to parents looking for a childcare centre they can sense confident in. The Orange Tree Day childcare centre has created an incredible home from home setting for my daughter.
