The building was purpose built as a nursery with four play rooms and a large kitchen. It is exceptionally bright
and airy inside with fantastic facilities, indoor and out. The nursery benefits from car free walk zones around
the university campus and a walk to feed the ducks is one of the children's favourites.
All rooms have qualified staff, and we also employ a
qualified chef who prepares fresh food for the children during their stay with us. The nursery has parking outside
for drop-off and pick-up. We look forward to inviting you for a viewing.

Testimonials
• Would recommend without hesitation and have repeatedly done so!
• We find that the newsletter is a very useful regular communication both in terms of upcoming activities and
reminders of policies, etc.
- We found that the staff were very helpful, experienced and supportive for potty training.
- We like that outdoor activities are encouraged and are an integral part of the day/week throughout the year.
- We are happy that social skills/group interaction and good manners are promoted and 'rough play' is not allowed.
- The staff seem to be aware of each child's individuality/character.
• Even after 2 years, I am still amazed by the care, attention and support provided by the staff. I've been so
delighted by how much my child has developed while there and the range of activities in which she participates. It's
been great for her! I'd also like to highlight positively the personal concern shown by both Directors.
• All in all I am very happy with the way the girls are looked after - they have come on leaps and bounds and it is really down to your staff.
• Both of my children have been cared for by Pinocchios and I have never felt unsure of leaving them. All the staff are professional and
caring and there are no issues whatsoever!
