Cheap is not always best. The staff unfortunately, seem to spend a lot of time talking about last nights soap and not taking too much interest in the children. They are left to their own amusement most of the time. I am all for kids standing on their own two feet but when they are upset or distressed, they need adult intervention. I moved my child back to a larger facility, as although the new one has more children, the level of care and attention and learning is also greater. I get the feeling that the owner of Alexandra is fairly new to the game and she seemed a bit vague about most things. Just not for me or my child. If you are looking for care on a budget then fine, but don't expect too much. read more

This is private day care situated at the back of a church, it may not be a purpose built fancy nursery with posh expensive equipment but i feel there are more important things than that to consider when it comes to finding the right nursery for your child. My daughter went there full time from being 5 months old until she left for school last week. It is OFSTED registered and accepts the goverment grants for 3 yr olds but more importantly to me my daughter loved going. Its small having only 34 places but that is one of the reasons i chose it, after visiting some of the large purpose built nurseries that seemed almost clinical i felt as soon as we went in that this was the one for us because of the warm welcome we got from staff and children ( who all looked happy and content). Food is all freshly cooked on the premises by staff with food hygiene qualifications and theres loads of fruit and veg on the menu. Most of the staff have been there for at least 3 yrs and some for more than 10 which gives great continuity of care and another plus of it being a small place is that the children get to know all the staff so if their key person is absent they are familiar and happy with whoever replaces them. There are a wide range of toys and activities to keep the children busy and help them develop. There is an open door policy meaning that parents can pop in at any time without having to make an appointment or let anyone know they were going to visit, to see how their little one is doing or have a chat to key persons etc My little girl loved going and made some really close friends. I would have no hesitation in recomending this nursery. Oh and i found the prices were pretty competitive as well. read more
