Thanks Steve :) Also looking for people who have used: Bonnie Babies, Tiny Toes, Busy Bees & The Right Track as Grasshoppers do not offer half day sessions & this is something I am considering.

My daughter goes to Busy Bees. She seems happy & settled there. They have a good space indoors and out and seem to have a nice variety of activities. I looked at Tiny Toes but it's just two rooms with a very small outdoor space and I personally didn't feel happy to send her there. Purely personal preference, nothing wrong with the staff and the kids seemed happy.

Both my children went part time to Busy Bees and they were very happy there and hence we were very happy with it too. We still go back to say hello sometimes now! The environment and staff were great. We were personally very happy and would recommend it.

When I was looking at Nurseries a few years ago for my son only Tiny Toes were doing half days, which is what I wanted. He was very happy there (me too) & still talks about going back despite being at school full time. Good luck with your search.

Our 2 year old has attended The Right Track since February this year and we can highly recommend it. We looked at a few other nurseries, but Alexandra and her staff are so good with all of the children in their care. We have been so impressed with the progress that our little boy has made. The security is exceptional, which we also felt important. Give Alexandra a call on 01992 500455 to arrange a visit.

we were recommended Bonnie Babies when we first started looking a couple of years ago, although when I visited, I came away refusing to send my daughter there. All I could think of was that it reminded me of an Eastern European ophanage with the rows of wooden cots inthe baby room. It was probably very good childcare and it was the cheapest (think it was £38/day comparted the the £50+/day at Grasshoppers). Still, Grasshoppers won and we had no regrets at all. Everyone has different preferences, which I guess is why there are so many nurseries.
