Below are the reviews that Melanie has written.
There's something incredibly special about Child's Play - it's unlike any other nursery I've ever stepped into.
The setting itself is welcoming, well equipped and clearly full of fun and joy. The two gardens are wonderful and the children spend time out there every day, come rain or shine! They engage with the wildlife, help to take care of their nursery surroundings and the place is very much an extension of home.
The staff know each child as if they're their own, all their quirks, likes, dislikes and things that are important to them. Many of the staff members have been there for years (some for decades!) which tells you all you need to know about how lovely the setting is. The activities they plan for the children are well thought out, wholesome and thoroughly enjoyed by the little ones.
Our little girl has been there for 18 months now, and our little boy will be joining next year. It's a truly special nursery and any family joining are incredibly lucky.

We count ourselves very lucky to have found Nerina. After meeting lots of other childminders, we knew instantly she was the one for us and she was heads and shoulders above the others we'd met.
Our son has been with her for a while now and she is the most wonderful, caring and fun caregiver. The children spend lots of time outdoors either in her ample back garden or on trips to local parks, they do arts and crafts and spend time developing social skills playing together. Nothing is too much trouble for Nerina - she's bent over backwards to help with our son's dietary allergies and is always flexible and happy to do longer hours/extra days when we need to. Her meals are also all home cooked, wholesome, varied and are wolfed down by all the children!
Nerina's home is a warm, loving, fun place for our son to spend his week and we are so pleased we found her. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a childminder.
