Nurseries in general

Home from Home nursary is not a nursary I would ever reccommend! When visiting I watched as they shovelled food into the mouths of children who did not want to eat, practically force feeding them. Against my better judgment I left my daughter there only for them to take her out, not once but twice, without my permission. The fist time they took all the children for pizza at a local cafe and did not even take contact numbers with them. Thank goodness they were not needed! They fed a child strawberries after being told they were allergic. There are constant staff changes, some I know are not CRB checked. My child came ...  Read the complete review

Like most mothers I am very protective of my daughter and was very anxious when it came to looking for childcare.

They have a chef and a well ...  Read the complete review

I knew right from the start of my pregnancy that I would have to return to work fairly promptly. Therefore at 12 weeks pregnant the search began for the perfect nursery. I started by scouring the Yellow Pages, local press and health centres. Before I did anything I made a phone call checking whether they took babies (many don't take them until they are 6 months). Once I had done this I asked them to send out details. Some of the nurseries didn't bother to send me anything at all and were therefore crossed off my list straight away. Others sent poorly presented information and a handful sent the sort of material that I would expect. Then I had the ...  Read the complete review

So you've just had a baby and one of the first things your mother or in-laws say to you is " I hope you will be sending my grandchild to a good school" You are flabbergasted. A good school ?...you ask yourself. Here you sit, just barely out of hospital, still in pain from those stitches, engorged breasts and bleary eyed from night feeding, you haven't even thought about what to have for dinner let alone what school to send them to when they get older. You just want to enjoy your child as a baby first before sending them packing off to school. Or do you? So when is the best time to think about schooling for your child? Well in a nutshell ...  Read the complete review
