The Spinney Day Nursery Bell Meadow and Holiday Club

"Our son has been at Bell Meadow in their baby room, toddler room and now preschool. He always loves going to nursery thanks to all the great staff there and looks forward to all the activities and fun. He always tells us how much he has enjoyed Ken's cooking too!"

"I cannot praise the staff enough at Spinney. Due to lockdown my child really struggled with going to anyone other than Me and her Dad. Returning to work was daunting enough without the thought of leaving my daughter in Nursery with strangers. I explained this to staff and from the start they have been wonderful with her and we had about 9 settling in sessions prior to her starting. She has been going to Spinney now for almost 4 months and she absolutely loves it and has come on so much! Thank you to the staff in the Baby room- Jess, Kelly and Sarah who are amazing with her and send me updates on the app throughout the day. Ken- for the amazing food- the menu for them at Spinney is exceptional (she eats better than me) Louise and Lauren for all your help and support in getting her settled in. Without a doubt I would recommend Spinney, from the staff, the chef and the actual nursery, location and how they look after and develop the children- The best nursery around :)"

"Both my son and daughter have attended spinney bell meadow and we have been overwhelmed by the kind, caring and personal atmosphere and attitude of all staff. My son attended another local nursery initially, which looked great on paper but in reality it was just to big to have the caring and personal environment which is so important in these early stages and resulted in him being really unhappy. I moved my son to spinney and he flourished, right through to pre school. I also enrolled my daughter who started as a very small baby and is now in the toddler room. Each stage has been exceptional. Both children thoroughly enjoyed every day at nursery, there was never a tear on dropping off just big smiles and a wave. My son now attends the holiday clubs and loves these to. The family run aspect to the nursery is invaluable. Staff are always on hand to answer any queries. It really is one big family, from Ken in the kitchen to Lauren and Lauren in management, and not to mention the fabulous key workers who work directly with the children. (Zoe and Alice currently for my daughter) The children are given so many opportunities with every aspect of education being thoughtfully and creatively delivered to the children, as well as a number of extra curricular activities, including; external companies delivering dance classes, trips to forest school as well as a other excursions. I can’t fault the nursery in any area. Even their provisions in regards to covid have been thoughtfully and effectively implemented to ensure all children and staff are kept safe. Thank you for all you do! X"

"My little girl attended the nursery from 10 months old up to two years (until we relocated to Liverpool and very sadly had to withdraw her). She absolutely loved every day at Spinney, all the staff are wonderful, caring and professional and nothing was ever too much trouble. From the managers to the cook, everybody plays a role in creating the sense of family that is so hard to find elsewhere. I highly recommend to anybody looking for an outstanding nursery."

"Great Holiday Club, very organized (plenty of interesting activities) and the staff is very friendly! Our daughter loves it! Highly recommended!"
