“I just wanted to thank all of you for everything, I’m so grateful!

After J broke his arm with his first childminder, I never thought I’d be able to trust another childcare setting again! However, from the beginning, everyone went above and beyond to make sure that both J and I were comfortable and happy.

J has come so far since being at Glebe Kids – his speech has developed and he’s learnt so many things that wouldn’t have even crossed my mind.

I know Joseph will truly miss seeing everyone, especially Caron!”

"All children benefit exceptionally well from attending this caring and nurturing setting, where staff are highly effective at prioritising and meeting children's individual needs.

Children are confident and show that they feel very safe and secure. They are completely content in their surroundings due to the excellent relationships they have with staff. 

The richly resourced and highly inviting environment motivates children to be deeply engaged in their chosen play.

Children thoroughly enjoy their time in the cosy reading shed. They show an exceptional love of books throughout the setting. "

“I was so unsure on the idea of nursery but I couldn’t be more happy with starting my little one at Glebe.

He has such an incredible key worker who he has grown so fond of and he is always excited to go.

Thank you Glebe for being incredible!!”

“To the amazing Glebe Kids team,

Thank you so much for your wonderful care of A over the last year and a half. We have been so grateful for every day she’s spent with you, being nurtured, developing in herself, and growing in her skills, especially socially.

From how she is with you all, and how you’ve always related to us as parents, we have full confidence that she has been treated with kindness, patience, and a deep understanding of her needs and development, even in her more challenging moments.

She will really miss you all, as will we. The end of her Glebe Kids chapter has come around far too quickly!

A huge thank you for everything”

“Molly has had the best time with you all over the last 18 months or so. You and the staff are so attentive, kind, caring, supportive, fun and so many more brilliant things. You all help to create a space that is so special! We appreciate you all and I know Molly will miss you all so much! Thank you for everything!”

"Children are at the heart of everything the staff do. They thrive at this setting and learn what they need to be successful in their future. This means they make exceptional progress.

Children behave impeccably. Staff support children to identify their emotions and talk to them about the reasons they might feel like this. They teach children many important social skills, such as turn-taking. 

The manager is incredibly dedicated to her role and provides exceptional professional development opportunities for staff to consistently ensure best practice. 

Children's communication and language skills are outstanding. All staff have received specialist training to effectively support children to be articulate and expressive communicators."

"The needs of children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities are quickly identified. The skilled staff team puts instant support in place in partnership with parents and external professionals.

Teachers are enthusiastic and proud of their roles and often enjoy long careers at this setting. They explain how they regard the team as an extension of their own 'family'.

Parents describe the staff team as 'incredible', where they provide children with wonderful experiences. 

Parents are overwhelmingly positive about the setting. They welcome the excellent communication they receive from staff that ensures they are fully involved in every aspect of their children's learning. "

“Glebe Kids has been amazing at helping my daughter settle in to nursery, from the first day she started until now almost a year later.

She goes into nursery excited and confident thanks to their expertise and love for the children.

She always comes home saying how fun nursery was, happy and stimulated. I feel so very blessed to have had both my children attend this incredible nursery.”
