2018

We looked at several nurseries for our 4-year-old son before picking St Margaret's. It was a real stand out in terms of the learning environments and pleasant atmosphere. I was also impressed that there are qualified primary teachers on staff for pre-schoolers and that, as well as play, there are activities built into the day to prepare wee ones for Primary 1. Letter and number recognition, and having routines for hanging up jackets and eating together are essential skills to make the transition easier.

I have to say, I have never once doubted my decision to send my son there. The staff are friendly and supportive, as well as firm when necessary. Kathryn, Alberto, Alison and Louise are a real credit to the nursery and couldn't do more for our family. Play is often free form, and the outside space is amazing, but there is also a good balance of structured activities. The pre-schoolers visit as old peoples' home every 2 weeks and this is a wonderful mutually beneficial arrangement. The food is planned by a nutritionist and encourages healthy eating.

I cannot recommend highly enough!

Brilliant nursery,

The nursery is very spacious and the rooms are great. Very clean and with underfloor heating which is great for crawling babies and kids playing on the floor. My 28 months old boy used to hate going to the nursery but after moving to St Margaret he can't wait to go there.

They have a big garden area to use and an indoor softplay area which is ideal when the weather is horrible.

Great communication with staff and managers. No problems at all.

St Margaret’s Nursery is a haven for children with the loveliest, caring staff. Time is taken with the children when it comes to learning and activities. My granddaughter has been there for 2 years and she has come on in leaps and bounds. It will be a sad day when she leaves to start school.

We have been delighted with all elements of St Margarets. Our son settled very quickly there and every member of staff has been caring and enthusiastic. The management are focused on learning and make a dedicated team.
