Testimonials
Our little boy was only at Southfield for four months but he had an absolutely brilliant time, mum and dad can’t recommend it highly enough. Southfield was our son’s first experience of being away from home and he made amazing progress from the first moment he stepped in the door. He really loved going to Nursery and on the days he wasn’t attending would wake up and ask if it was Nursery today. He made friends and all of the staff he met were amazing with him. We would like to thank everyone at Southfields for the hard work and care taken to keep children, staff and parents safe during Covid. Hope to see you all again soon.

My children have attended this nursery for a couple of years. I picked this nursery not only the early opening time that fits in with my shift pattern, but the homely family feeling that I got when we had our first visit. All the staff seem genuinely invested in the children and their well-being. They constantly change the learning experiences that are given to the children, so they are never bored. All their meals are home-cooked and have a great variety. My children are very much outdoor children regardless of the weather. The outdoor space this nursery has is great. They promote time outside and take the children on walks away from the nursery, which is always planned to have an educational link. I always feel very informed of my children’s development with the updates on the app linked to the early years foundations. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the nursery has adapted to the ‘new normal’ to ensure staff and children safe whilst maintaining a level of normality.

Our son is 21-months and absolutely loves going to nursery. All the staff are so friendly and welcoming, and my mind is at rest knowing he’s cared for so well. We are always kept up to date with what he’s been up to when he’s been there and get photos sent to us on the app where his development is also monitored, which is amazing! Couldn’t recommend Southfield Day Nursery more!

Southfield is a lovely nursery, the staff are excellent, and the facilities are perfect. My son has additional needs, and he is always cared for expertly, I trust Southfield completely. He loves going there and has developed a lot by being there.

After moving my son from a poor nursery to this nursery, the differences was phenomenal. The staff really care about the children. My son fitted in almost instantly and generally gets excited to go to nursery. His speech and general playing have come on great since he started here. As a child, who can be picky with food, he always eats all his meals and tells me about the nursery curry all the time.
Charlotte January 2021,
Would highly recommend Southfield. My son has been going since he was 7-months-old, he is now 14-months, and it has brought him on so much, especially being in lockdown most of his life. The staff are great and have a great bond with him. He loves playing outside, and they have great facilities

Excellent staff excellent facilities learning plans are really good you can see your child’s development weekly. Wish we had lived closer sooner so our child’s experiences with everyone at Southfield could have lasted longer.

Diane L – October 2019,
I would highly recommend Southfield Day Nursery. Both of my children have come on leaps and bounds since joining, both socially and academically. The days are structured and planned. The outdoor space is amazing. One of my children suffers from food allergies and the staff have been amazing at accommodating.
Nothing has ever been a problem when I’ve asked to swap days round etc. Emails are responded to quickly. I absolutely love the nursery and will be really sad when it’s time for my children to leave.
Hayley K – October 2019,
My daughter goes to this nursery, she loves it. Staff are amazing with the children. My child loves going on the adventure walks and beach trips.

Both my children have attended this nursery, my son from 4 months of age until starting school nursery and my daughter from 6 weeks old until the present. Both my kids have absolutely loved it, the staff make them feel so comfortable and they adore the staff too!
Both my children have come on so much in their speech since going downstairs into the 2-3 and 3-4 year rooms!
Victoria R – October 2019,
We spent so long trying to find a nice local nursery and were so lucky to have discovered Southfields. Both of us, as parents and our triplets, have been made to feel so welcome from the first visit and at every drop off and collection. We feel very confident and reassured leaving our babies here, nothing
is ever too much trouble. The staff are so knowledgeable, genuinely very caring and really are wonderful with all of the children, the environment is brilliant, the food is fab and the manager is so helpful and very hands-on with the children. All of the staff have gone above and beyond to help our children to have a smooth transition into nursery life and they have had such an evident positive impact on our babies already! Southfields is a hidden gem and a true home from home environment and we can’t wait to watch our children grow as they continue their journey over the next couple of years!
Emma R – October 2019,
Southfield Day Nursery is excellent. My daughter enjoys her time there very much. There is always an excellent range of well planned activities and her days are full of excitement. She has developed so much since going to Southfields and the staff are all enthusiastic and caring. Garden area is also
brilliant and the general feel of the nursery is like being home from home. I couldn’t recommend Southfields highly enough.
Gemma C – October 2019,
I think Southfield Day Nursery is excellent and have had no problems what so ever. I previously had my little girl in another nursery and I am so pleased I decided to move her to Southfield! I like the daily updates you get about what they have done/eaten/nappies and sleep time as well as the Tapestry app showing regular photos of the activities they have done. The outdoor garden area is so lovely and much bigger than other nurseries I have seen, it is also very secure for getting in and out.

My child enjoys going to nursery, the staff are friendly and always welcoming. I have no concerns over my child who has been attending since he was very small.
Hannah B, April 2019,
I am so happy that I chose Southfield for my little boy. We’ve been made to feel so welcome here and he absolutely loves the manager and her lovely team. He has learnt so much since starting nursery and I am so grateful for all of the love and kindness they have shown him over the last year.
The team that look after him in the baby room are amazing, he’s learnt so many valuable skills and I know he feels so happy and loved here. It’s a joy to see the Tapestry photos of the fantastic time he has. He has so much fun but is learning so much at the same time. I can’t thank you all enough for everything you do for us!
Lynsey H, April 2019,
Lovely friendly staff, homely environment and a great garden. My daughter has been going since she was 9 months old. She loves going to nursery and always comes out happy which is all I can ask for.
Kerry R, April 2019
Southfield Day Nursery provides fantastic care and learning for my child. It’s hard to take the step to choosing a nursery for your little one, but Southfield made the process so easy and I trusted them immediately.
I was recommended the nursery by a friend and I have recommended it to 2 other friends. We all have our children in the nursery now, some in separate rooms and I have never heard anything but positive comments about all aspects of the nursery. My child has come on leaps and bounds in the year and a half she has attended and she looks forward to attending!
The staff maintain great communication with parents and I am very grateful for every one of them!
Katy S, April 2019,
Well…. Tomorrow is Bella last day at Southfield Day Nursery! Was a bit emotional saying bye to all the girls.
They have been like an extended family as known most of them when my oldest went.
Big Thank You
Ashleigh Henderson, August 2018
My son has been at this nursery since he was 4 months old and is now nearly 4. I cannot fault this nursery as all of the staff are lovely and extremely helpful in every way. In my opinion, my son has taken part in a lot of lovely activities from which I have gained lots of keepsakes. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone as they really do care about each and every child.
E B, February 2018
I am extremely happy with the staff and care they provide. My son and I have only recently moved to the area and Southfield Day Nursery has been brilliant in making sure he settles well. He loves all the staff and it’s so good to see him so happy.
Thank you.
E I, February 2018
Both children have attended Southfield Day Nursery and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending to friends or other parents looking for a safe, home from home environment. The staff are extremely caring and professional and go out of their way to make sure that children are settled and happy in their care. As parents, we have been very happy with the care provided and working full-time. It has been a blessing to find such a lovely nursery with great staff who look after the children as if they were their own.

My little one has been very happy to come to nursery and by the looks of his tapestry which is always up to date, he loves his time here.

Sam Hayes, May 2017
Wonderful nursery with lovely staff whom care about the kids and just have a homely atmosphere where children are comfortable and a cuddle is never too far away. My son attended and he developed so much and just started first school full of confidence that he gained at the nursery. Couldn’t be more grateful. As a working parent I always felt so comfortable leaving my precious boy and know he will be looked after so very well. Plus food has always been great which helped my picky child. Highly recommend.
Victoria Wright, September 2016
I would give Southfield Day Nursery 10 stars if I could because they service they have provided us over the last 7 years has been absolutely outstanding. Both my children have attended the nursery and I can honestly say that I have never known such a lovely group of people. The staff are amazing, firm but fair and kind and I never once worried about my children’s welfare or happiness while they were there. Both children loved attending and they were well prepared for moving onto first school. The children are encouraged to do fun and educational activities, the surroundings are homely and clean and the meals always looked delicious. I also loved the fact that the outside space is so well equipped and the children were encouraged to play outside as often as weather permitted. This place is wonderful and we are so grateful to all of the staff for the exceptional care they have taken of our children. Thank you for everything Southfield Day Nursery xxx
