Smarties Testimonials

Over the past 8 years coming to Smarties with our two children, we have been consistently filled with awe and wonder at the work that you and the team do...... inspirational does not even come close!
The range of activities the children are exposed to day in day out is phenomenal. Matilda adores attending Forest School, taking her learning outdoors and observing nature. There have been so many WOW moments in her learning that it as almost impossible to particularise.

I am very grateful that my child is part of a nursery that supports his individual needs but also allows him the space and freedom to explore and develop his interests in a fun, kind and stimulating environment. I firmly believe that Smarties are giving Harry the best foundations for his educational and social journey.

I want to say how privileged my daughter has been to attend Smaties Nursery. You have provided her with a varied, interesting and stimulating experience and we have watched her go from strength to strength.
The 'ladies' are always very knowledgeable, professional and caring. Her phonics are excellent, her word recognition and writing skills are beyond our expectations, and I am sure she wouldn't have done as well in any other setting.

I just wanted to put into words how exemplary we have find the care provided for our two children Arthur aged 3yrs and Matilda aged 9mths. Every day I feel happy that they are part of a big family!
Arthur has needed extra help with his hearing and speech and the 3-4's group have really brought this on hugely by using small group and targeted sessions with him. The variety of his experiences is incredible - his vocabulary at home is proof of this!
