The Courtyard Nursery was recommended to us by close friends whose children have both enjoyed their time there. It was really important to us that we found a nursery not only close to where we live but somewhere we felt would nurture, develop and care for our son.

Our son is a very happy, personable little boy but there was always a concern that after almost 12 months of Covid-19 restrictions and many baby groups missed, that he would not settle. We needn't have worried. The manager was great from day one right through the enrolment process and keeping up regular contact before his start date, earlier this year.

He thoroughly enjoys his time at nursery and has developed a great bond with all the staff. The feedback they give after each day is great and the Parentzone portal is a great idea where you can login to see photos of your child with regular updates.

The policy they have in place to combat any potential spread of Covid-19 is very thorough and it certainly puts your mind at rest knowing the precautions they take.

Overall, we are delighted with our son’s first six weeks with The Courtyard Nursery and we would like to pass on our appreciation to the manager and the team - you've made the transition from home to nursery a seamless one for our son and us alike!

You said, we did!
