My wife and I are very happy with the care and education our daughter gets there. She spends more time there than anywhere else–even home it seems. She has met and exceeded her milestones. She has learned manners–everything is “please” “thank you”–this from a two year old!! She loves her teachers, she knows the parts of the body–and it is obvious the teachers love the kids. Our daughter is happy to see her parents, but she is also happy in the mornings to see her friends and teachers, calling them by name. No separation fits and anxiety. A child would not do that if they were asked to enter a bad environment. The teachers are great, from the stories, to teaching the kids crafts and social behavior–like how to line up and wait–we are very confident that our daughter will easily get into a good school after tutor time.

Our one year old son is thriving at Nottingham Child Care. We tried a day home, where he cried all day for a month, and after just a week here he was happy in the mornings and waving goodbye to me. The staffs are excellent, very attentive and affectionate, and communicate well with the parents. They provide breakfast and you send lunch and snacks, which was unlike most of the Centre’s I visited but has become an easy part of our routine and we know what he is eating. Excellent day care!

This is honestly the best daycare we could ever have picked for our daughter! Over the last 2 years we have always felt confident that our toddler is receiving quality care and much love. Management and Staff are always friendly, kind and very accommodating. We highly recommend this quality facility.

Our son has been in this daycare for almost 3 years now and we could not be happier at our choice to put him here. The staff is always smiling and very nice to talk too. The level of care and education the children get at this daycare is top notch. We are continually amazed watching our son grow as he learns so much every day. Looking back I am glad I was unable to work from home and had to put him in a daycare because he would not be at the level he is today if he were home with me every day. I am constantly being complimented on how advanced my son is for 3….most people are amazed when I say he is only 3!! I would recommend this daycare to anyone who is looking to put their child in an education based daycare. 😁😁

Thank you all so much for the warmest welcome and amazing care you have provided to this most important member of our family. You made the transition so much easier for us with the emails and updates. It meant so much to us seeing how much my child loves her teachers puts my mind and heart at ease; I know she is in good hands with you all.
