Such a welcoming place and very polite staff. My daughter is always happy to attend the nursery, updates regularly on the app for parents who worry like me constantly which is very comforting. Overall great nursery wouldn’t go elsewhere 👍🏻

Very nice staff, nice environment, my son is always so happy when he comes to Hamilton nursery, and I’m always getting updates on what he’s doing through the day which eases my mind, couldn’t recommend a better nursery!

My daughter has been here since the beginning of December and I couldn’t fault it at all! She absolutely loves being here and has developed so much! I get updates daily of my daughters day and we love to come home and discuss about what she has been learning and how much fun she has had!
