Montessori Nursery School in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire

“Both our children have been to Daisies (one is now at school and one is still there). The staff are first class – extremely knowledgeable and place the well-being of the children at the core of everything they do. I’m sure the Montessori approach may not suit absolutely everyone, but our 2 children have very different personalities yet both thrived under the guidance of the manager and the incredible staff. If you want your children to learn how to use iPads etc. you will have to take that task on yourself – my ratings are based on the Montessori approach to education so I have not marked Daisies down in this area. I feel like the children are sufficiently challenged whilst learning key life skills to ensure they are well equipped for school. I would recommend Daisies to any parent wanting the best start for their children from an excellent team who will treat your children as if they were their own.”

“If only I had known about your nursery sooner, my daughter would have had a better start. The confidence she has gained and the self-esteem she has built is all thanks to your amazing team. Your care, time and kindness has been so greatly appreciated. I’ve told everyone I know just how wonderful you are, going above and beyond in every aspect which you don’t often get”

“You have encouraged our child to have his own interests and helped his understanding if that topic. You have promoted independence in a safe way. You have been considerate to our son and his routines and listened to us as parents.”

“My daughter has been at Daises for a year and she has truly blossomed during her time at this nursery! Everything from her social skills to her vocabulary have come on faster than I ever imagined. The staff are so welcoming to both parents and children and it is easy to address any queries or questions about my daughter’s day to day learning. I can’t praise all the ladies enough for all their work with my daughter! Not a day has gone by that she hasn’t wanted to go to nursery and we look forward to seeing how she grows in the next year!”

“I like the calm atmosphere and the gentleness of Daisies Montessori staff. The staff worked with my child and taught her how to be independent. I like how the nursery is set up to teach children how to learn. The observations on how my child is getting on are great and I always enjoys receiving them.”

“So many strengths. I have never felt happier leaving my child in any other setting other than Daisies. All staff are fantastic, kind, caring, thoughtful, happy and just a joy to be around. Leaving your child with these fantastic ladies is like leaving them with a family member. Anna, you are such a hardworking, caring and thoughtful human being. You should be o proud of yourself. What a success you and your ladies have made – and continue to make. Thank you for having us as part of your Daisies family.”

“I could never ask for anything more than what you have done for my children. Every day they come out smiling. You have all helped me in raising my children and I’m so thankful for that. The teachers all have such amazing and unique personalities that combine the perfect team.”

“As this chapter comes to a close we can’t help but reflect on the incredible journey we’ve had here at Daisies. Thank you for everything you’ve done during our daughter’s 2.5 years with you. Your support in building confidence, making new friends and most recently her reading and writing has been incredible. Our daughter loves Daisies and will be sad to go, however, we’re grateful that she will still get to se e you when her sister joins. Your impact on her life is immeasurable and we truly appreciate your dedication as exceptional teachers.”

“Our daughter hasn’t been at Daisies for a long period of time but with the time she has had there she has really started to enjoy coming. It was a huge challenge for our daughter to start in a different new setting besides being at home and everyone at Daisies has been so kind, patient and attentive, we honestly couldn’t have asked for more. They have gone above and beyond and she always talks about ‘Anna’ at home, who she adores, and she only normally would mention family so she must feel really at home at Daisies. Thank you Miss Anna and all of the Daisies team for looking after our little one.”

“Based on my son I can say that you made him so mature. You are so amazing showing him new things, useful things. He was such a shy child and now he is a very confident little man. You give the children the tools to be amazing humans and thrive in whatever they choose to do.”

“Daisies is wonderful. You have welcomed our child into the Daisies family, going above and beyond for us on more than one occasion. You have made us feel comfortable and confident to leave him with you, caring for him as we do. You have instilled in our child a passion for learning and exploration. You allow him to follow his interests and answer his endless lists of questions! H e is unique and you treat him as such. We like how he is taught to put things away after use and the many opportunities to develop his independence. The quality of education as been excellent, we really couldn’t have hope for better.”

“Miss Anna, from our first meeting I felt confident to entrust my little ones to you. You have created a nurturing and fully rounded learning environment. Your passion and drive are matched by your expertise and I truly feel so very grateful for your teaching and guidance over the years. I hope you know what a significant and highly positive contribution you have made to all our lives. We will miss you.”

“Miss Anna, where do I begin? You’ve been in our lives longer than some friends. You’ve listened, you’ve cared and you’ve understood. When our daughter first started the day after she turned two I had never trusted anyone to look after her. You always went above and beyond. You should be so proud of all you’ve achieved.”
