Report
The nursery is awful. My child was quite happy there but it's clear the staff cannot take appropriate care of the children. I received a phone call saying my son had soiled himself and they couldn't manage to change him so would I come and do it. Bear in mind they had 8 children between 2 staff which is not a huge amount and that I was 7 months pregnant with twins and was too big to drive so I had to waddle up to the school. When I got there he was fine, sitting down playing with toys. Why they couldn't manage to change him is beyond me. Also I wasn't allowed to send him in Lace up shoes as it

Im disgusted with the way that this nursery treated my child. Their behaviour towards my child is truly despicable and I will not have my child attend there any longer. My child went on a school trip with the nursery school and was put on reigns without my permission! My child came home, crying, because he could not move in the reigns. Im disgusted.
