My son joined last month at the age of 1 year 2 months as my daughter has been at Apple Tree for the past 18 months. It's a fantastic nursery, very family oriented and I feel at ease knowing he is well looked after. They are very flexible and accommodating, the staff are very friendly. Would definitely recommend this nursery.

Apple Tree Nursery are fabulous! Currently have a child who has been attending for over a year who started when a year old. The staff are excellent and show great care. They are helpful and have really helped our child to grow, learn and develop. Our child loves playing outdoors and the outdoor area at Apple Tree is spacious. They also provide meals. All round it's a wonderful nursery.

Apple Tree is a beautiful nursery which is like a home away from home for both my children! They are looked after and cared for so lovingly. The nursery always provides great life skills making the children independent. The kids always come home excited to tell us about the fun things they did with their friends. Thank you Apple Tree!

Aarti D

Apple Tree is the best nursery we could have chosen! Friendly and supportive staff as well as really flexible with the sessions. My daughter developed wonderfully there and I will recommend it to anyone!

Luiza D

My daughter has been attending Apple Tree Nursery for a year now. I have seen her develop immensely since joining. The staff are always caring, friendly and help my daughter with all her educational and developmental needs. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe and supportive environment. A special mention for Mrs Saba who takes a keen interest in the kids and ensures descriptive feedback when required. The owners take a personal interest and dedicate time to support my daughter in her school application process. Overall, a fantastic nursery.

My daughter has been at Apple Tree for a year and she has truly blossomed! Her social skills and vocabulary have come on faster than I ever imagined. The staff are very welcoming, and it brings me comfort knowing my daughter enjoys attending and loves her teachers. Thank you to all at Apple Tree for all your hard work.

My son joined the nursery when he was 2 years old and had a great experience. He is a special needs child and was given additional support on request. Staff were very friendly and supportive, always ready to go the extra mile to accommodate his needs. They even helped me find the right school after nursery for him. I would highly recommend Apple Tree.

Sathesh Y

My daughter joined when she was 15 months and is now 2 and a half. Since joining she has developed exceptionally fast, especially with her vocabulary and social skills. She loves going to nursery and always talks about the staff. Very friendly and accommodating, the nursery is very well run. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely fantastic nursery — both of my kids have been to Apple Tree. My son came out prepared for reception and is over-achieving academically. His behaviour is also exceptional, a result of the great team. My daughter is currently there, really enjoying learning, and I am certain she will come out the same. The team are polite, kind and always helpful. Would recommend to anybody.

We've been with the nursery for nearly 3 years. My son loves it and has learned so much. Lovely big grounds that they make lots of use of, but the star of the show is the staff. They are absolutely wonderful — so dedicated and warm, going the extra mile to ensure your child makes the most of their time there. We'll be very sad to leave when my child heads to school.

Parita G

Our daughter has been attending Apple Tree for 7 months. She settled in amazingly and is always happily bobbing in in the mornings. We are very pleased with her progress and have no doubt it will continue. The staff go above and beyond and have been extremely attentive from the get go. We will definitely be sending our son there also.

Tulsi

We had the best experience with Apple Tree over the past 4 years. Our 2 boys loved coming to the nursery — learning new things and sharing cuddles with practitioners who were always caring and loving. The management team was always helpful arranging extra sessions or swapping days. Any concern was always addressed and solved. My boys constantly remember Apple Tree and the great times they had there. We recommend Apple Tree to anyone looking for experienced staff and a safe, welcoming place for their little ones.
