We'd love you to visit us and see Snuggles for yourself - the mix of staff, children, activities and learning is something we put all our efforts into. We work hard to create a fun, safe and loving environment for your children. All our staff are trained for the age groups they look after. We're here to help your child learn and develop, and we take that responsibility very seriously indeed.
We update our Nursery Pal app throughout the day, so you can see at a glance what your little one has been up to - how long they've slept for, what they've had to eat, and what games and activities they've been taking part in. We follow the Early Years Foundation stage for 0-5 year olds. It's a statutory framework that makes sure your little one will have the skills and knowledge they need to start school.

Our daughter has been going to Snuggles for 18 months now and I can't imagine her ever going to another nursery. She loves the staff, which puts our minds at rest;they are incredible with her. She is now in the toddler room and loves every minute of her time there. The way the staff interact with and develop her is amazing. I couldn't recommend Snuggles highly enough.

Snuggles is fantastic, such a homely environment and just feels like one big family. The staff are brilliant and truly look after my little one as if he were their own and are so instinctive with what he needs. There are lots of varied activities here and I feel that he gets a lot from it and we as parents have peace of mind for his safety and development.

My little boy started snuggles last May. He was very petted on me and suffered from various allergies so I was worried about how he would settle. My worries were soon eased. All the staff are amazing and clearly love what they do. My son is so happy to go everyday and full of smiles. The app they have allows me to see what he is doing during the day and this is fantastic. So glad I chose snuggles. 5 stars from me 😊😊😊

My little one only started a month ago, and what a change I’ve seen in him he’s so happy and content he loves going to see the girls each day, I love seeing how happy he is when I go to pick him up that says a lot, the app is great to check in on what he’s been up to, girls are so caring and attentive to him, I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

There aren’t enough words to describe Snuggles Day Care. Although it’s a nursery, it’s a family, the staff care for each and every single child like they were their own. From the moment you walk in the door there is a friendly smile and a warm welcome, not just for your child, but for you as well (there’s always a hug and a cup of tea if needed).
I was apprehensive of sending my little one to nursery, but I can honestly say choosing Snuggles was the best decision I ever made. My daughter is now an outgoing, confident child, she learns something new everyday and has a lot of fun in everything

We love Snuggles! My son has been going for over 6 months, initially part time and now full time, and he absolutely loves it. All of the staff are really friendly and dedicated, it is clear that they have a real vocation and care about the children they look after. Snuggles offers a really friendly, happy, and stimulating environment, with different types of fun activities and great food too. My husband and I highly recommend this nursery - we couldn’t think of a better place to leave our little one while we’re working. Thank you Snuggles!!!

My little one has just started going to snuggles and I honestly cannot praise this nursery enough!! It takes a lot for him to come around to people, and in a space of a week he’s like a different child so happy and smiley, He loves going and all the girls are amazing in the babies room! I wish I had of put him into nursery sooner. Thank you all so much! ❤️
