�鶹��ý

We’re delighted to share some wonderful news from across our �鶹��ý family.

�鶹��ý has been recognised as one of the Top 20 Most Recommended Large Nursery Groups in the UK by leading review platform daynurseries.co.uk. Even more special, four of our East Midlands nurseries have also earned places in the region’s Top 20 Most Recommended Nurseries list, all with a perfect score of 10 out of 10.

A recognition that matters

What makes this recognition so meaningful is where it comes from.

The daynurseries.co.uk awards are based entirely on independent parent reviews. Every rating reflects the real experiences of families whose children attend our nurseries - from the quality of care and early education to the warmth of our teams, our environments, and the everyday moments that matter most.

With more than 12,500 nurseries listed across the UK, achieving a Top 20 ranking, whether as a group or individual nursery, is something we’re incredibly proud of.

Celebrating our Midlands nurseries

Alongside our national recognition, we’re thrilled that four of our nurseries have been named among the Top 20 most recommended nurseries in their regions:

• Children 1st  Buckinghams Nursery School – recognised in the West Midlands Top 20
• Children 1st  Chesterfield Nursery School – recognised in the East Midlands Top 20
• Children 1st  Grantham Nursery School – recognised in the East Midlands Top 20
• Woodville Nursery and Preschool – recognised in the East Midlands Top 20

Each of these settings achieved a perfect 10/10 score, reflecting the outstanding care, learning experiences, and relationships their teams create every day.

‍

Trusted by families across the UK

Today, �鶹��ý is proud to support families through a growing network of 59 nurseries, offering more than 5,800 places for children across the UK. Across the group, we’ve achieved an overall review score of 9.4/10, based on nearly 5,000 verified parent reviews.

This consistency reflects something we care deeply about: creating nurturing environments where children feel inspired and ready to learn, and where families feel confident and supported.

A message from our CEO

Sarah Mackenzie, �鶹��ý's CEO, shares:

“To see �鶹��ý recognised among the Top 20 nursery groups in the UK, alongside four of our East Midlands nurseries in the regional list, is something the whole team can take real pride in. It comes directly from the families we work with every day, which is what makes it so meaningful.

It reflects the close relationships our teams have built with parents, and the high standards we uphold across all of our settings. My thanks to every parent who took the time to share their experience, and to the staff at all our nurseries for the care and commitment they show our children and families day in, day out.”

Thank you to our families and teams

At �鶹��ý, we believe that early years education is built on strong partnerships between children, families, and our nursery teams.

These awards are a celebration of those partnerships. To every parent who took the time to leave a review, and to every colleague who brings care, creativity and dedication into our nurseries each day, thank you.

We’re so proud of what we’re building together.
