Up & Away Day Nursery Speke

We are very happy with all aspects of the nursery. The staff are excellent and the facilities are brilliant. We know that the children’s needs are being met every day and that their nutrition and diet are a high priority, along with the safeguarding standards.

Simply put, my daughter just loves going to Up and Away Day Nursery and Pre-School. As a parent, I want my child to be safe and happy. I therefore can’t ask for more than seeing a smiling face when I drop her off and pick-up of an evening. The staff are very caring and take the time to get to know the families, as much as the children. The flexibility that the extended opening hours offer to working parents, together with the comprehensive fee, which includes meals, nappies and sunscreen were added benefits; not to mention ease of location. But, above all, at Up and Away you feel part of a community. I’ve seen my daughter come on leaps and bounds since attending the nursery in terms of her confidence, speech and other motor skills which, being the product of a ‘lockdown baby’, coupled with the fact she is an only child, was of great importance to us to see that positive development.

Exceptional. I can’t recommend this nursery enough. My daughter wasn’t used to being around children before attending and she wasn’t used to other people mainly because she was a lockdown baby and I’m a single parent. She was also used to a different language. The staff have been very supportive from the very start and she is now thriving, she can’t wait to go to nursery every morning. Exceptional support, understanding and patience with a concerned mother, guiding me through all that is happening in my daughter’s daily activities. I must mention that she has been attending nursery for two months now, starting full-time on the exact day I started work and she couldn’t be happier. A happy, confident almost 2 years old baby.

My daughter has attended for over a year following the recommendation of a friend. Since enrolling my daughter, two of my relatives have now enrolled their children here. All of the staff are lovely and brilliant with my daughter and she comes home each night happy and exhausted from playing and learning with her friends. Couldn’t recommend it enough!

I love picking up my granddaughter from nursery and finding out about all the amazing things she has done. Sometimes she doesn’t want to come home because she is having so much fun. Staff are always kind and helpful and obviously care about all the children that they look after, as they seem to know them so well. Would definitely recommend Up & Away to anyone in the area looking for childcare.

Genuinely cannot praise this nursery enough, my little boy has been going since January and absolutely loves it. He has come on so much and actually tries new foods in nursery! All of the staff in blue skies are amazing with him especially one who I genuinely feel treats him and the other babies as though he was her own and I cannot thank her enough for this. I was nervous putting him in the nursery so young at first but I will forever be grateful I did now. Would recommend Up & Away Day Nursery Speke to anyone.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since September 2022 and she loves it so much. We got a good feeling when we viewed the nursery due to the facilities and warm welcome from the staff and it hasn’t disappointed. My only niggle is that I wish they used a better app for me to view photos of activities but that’s only a minor thing. I would highly recommend Up & Away Day Nursery Speke, my little girl is happy so I am happy.

My daughter has attended Up and Away for the past three years and has loved her time there. She is due to start primary school in September, and I know she will miss all the friends she has made and the staff in the preschool room. The staff are friendly and approachable and take the time to get to know the children individually. My 22-month-old son also attends the nursery and has settled in well. He has some additional needs, which the nursery has accommodated really well. I would recommend this nursery to people living in the local area or who work on the Estuary Business Park.

Since my child has started in the nursery, I have seen her progress in a very beneficial way, we still experience some upset when I initially leave her, but once I’ve gone she is absolutely fine and loves nursery and being with her friends and the staff. My daughter has grown special bonds with a few members of staff that I know go over and above to ensure her happiness and comfort. The activities she participates in during her nursery days are interesting and really engaging for my girl. I can’t thank them enough for the reassurance they offer to both myself and my child

My son has been here since December due to his previous nursery closing with no notice. I highly recommend this nursery he has come on leaps and bounds and he loves going into the girls. All the staff are super friendly and helpful. The nursery is very well equipped with loads of space.
Love this nursery, will be gutted when my son eventually has to leave.
