A big thank you to all our wonderful parents who continued to support us during what has been a difficult and uncertain time for us all.
"Hard and scary as it is I have complete faith in you to do the best for my little one as you always have. He’s missed you all so very much. Thanks for all you do 🙂" Beth
"This past week Iv argued with myself if I’m doing the right thing for the boys....but speaking to other parents Iv found that other nursery’s aren’t doing half of what Sunnybank is, you always go above and beyond and it makes this decision so much easier 😊 I know they will be safe, BUT also cared for and a little bit of normality is more than needed for them....they have missed nursery so much more than I thought and I hope that they can have fun and learn with there friends again ❤️ Thank you for all you do xx" Laura
At Nursery, our staff are
proud to consistently and constantly update their CPD to ensure at all times
they are the absolute best they can be, with all the most recent and relevant
information.
Just this week (01.06.2020) we have all completed Prevent COVID-19
training and an update on Infection Control in preparation for our wider
opening.
Throughout lock down 2020, we provided our Nursery children and wider community a range of exciting activities, songs and stories every day to take part in at home.
These are displayed via our Facebook Pages and Tapestry accounts, please feel free to pop over and have a look!
As this has been such a hit with parents, extended families and within our community, we are keen to keep this going as part of our drive to support our combined approach with parents and to help learning from home as much as possible! Therefore each week on each of our media channels, various development blogs/information, activity ideas, recipe suggestions and much much more will be available to view and download.

You welcomed me with a friendly smile when I was only '1'
You took my hand and cuddled me until I got used to everyone
Your reassured, encouraged me, watched that I didn't fall
You saw me grow in confidence and joined in with my play
You talked to me about the world and heard what I had to say
You helped me build first friendships to take turns and learn to share
You showed me the importance of trying to be fair
You laughed with me and shared my joy and joined me in a smile
You comforted me and listened if I was sad for a while
You taught me many of life's lessons amongst the paint and dough
You have been the best Nursery teachers and I do thank you so!
Thanking you all for looking after me and helping me grow - I will miss you all!

"Thank you so much for taking such fantastic care of Izzy! She has absolutely loved every day at Sunnybank and all the staff and children.
We have no doubt in our minds that you have all played a massive part in her growing up into the kind and caring girl that she is today.
She will miss you all terribly but at least she will be able to pop in when we pick up Will!
Thank you! xxx
Love from,
Terry, Ben, Will and Isabelle!

"To Sunnybank Nursery,
Thank you for looking after me since I was a tiny little baby!
I liked painting, playing with cars, playing boats and trying to draw, playing in the mud kitchen!
My Mummy says I love coming into Nursery, I have made so many friends and I am always telling her about the fun things I have done in the day! You have been like a second family!
We will miss you lots and lots
Henry xxx"

"To everone at Sunnybank,
I can't believe its time for big school!
It doesn't seem like 2 minutes since Alice had to peel me off Mummy (and I still like an Alice cuddle now!) I wouldn't be who I am today without every single one of you! Thank you for teaching me wonderful things, helping me grow and giving me so many memories I will cherish forever.
See you in the holidays!
Love Cole xxx"
"We cannot thank you enough for the support not only for Cole but for us too. Nothing was ever too much trouble and although Cole has 'flown the nest' we can't wait to start the next chapter with Hallie.
Love you all!
Stacey, Jamie and Hallie xxx" Stacey Watkinson
"We moved our daughter to Sunnybank recently after a bad experience elsewhere and we absolutely love it! The staff are all so committed and caring it astounds us. They have gone above and beyond to support our little girl and are always tailoring her learning/play to what she is interested in at the time (which changes nearly every day!) She has transformed from a shy, nervous little girl who wouldn't communicate with others to a confident and clever individual! We could not be happier with the care provided and would recommend to everyone!" E.Knight - May 2017
"I had to find a new nursery at very short notice for my son and Sunnybank have been very accommodating. Although we still have a few tears at drop off time, the staff have been very supportive, finding ways to help settle my son, and put me at ease ( a stressing mum!!) and when it's time to pick him up he's always having lots of fun!" T.Smart - June 2017
"i just want to say thank you so much for all the staff team do...not least when we had forgotten ** bag of spare pants this week and Amber had to put him in girls' pants..when ** undressed him that night, he danced around singing 'ooh la la' and they fell about giggling..a happy moment! " R.Rice - Jan 2018
Thank you Sunnybank for the flowers, bubble gun, gingerbread man and big sister card for Scarlett today!

To everyone at Sunnybank Nursery
At first I was sad that I couldn't come to play :(
I saw all your pics and watched your clips everyday,
They made me smile, join in and clap with glee,
And once again I felt happy :)
During my time away, I turned 2,
So I have brought some cakes in to share with all of you!
Lots of love Alfie xxx Annie Blant

Hello,
I just want to say a huge thank you and your staff for making Alfie’s first day back after almost 3 months away such a happy and safe one.
My husband and I were both apprehensive about sending him back but I am so glad that we did. The fact that he walked into nursery without a fuss after not being apart from Adam or myself these past few weeks shows how happy and settled Alfie is and continues to be at Sunnybank.
Thank you for continuing to show care and compassion in everything you do even in such challenging and changing times.
Kind Regards
Sarah Sarah Pearson
HiyaI just want to say thank you for today. I was a little bit anxious sending Sophie back to nursery even though I knew she would be looked after so well.This morning she was so excited getting in to the car to come and see everyone again, which just goes to show what a fantastic place Sunnybank is!When I picked her up she had the biggest smile on her face while running round the garden with her friends. It was wonderful to see!In Sophie's words, "I love my nursery lots."Thank you to all the staff, you're all amazing ❤Love Laura xxLaura Bennett

""Please can I thank the staff for last week when it was snowing. It was really helpful of you to bring the children out to us and Gemma in particular was doing a sterling job of shovelling the snow in the bitter cold! She just mucks right in! She even stopped the traffic for me bless her. I hope you all managed to get home ok that day!" L.Hopcroft
"Thank you so much to all the amazing staff. You have all been fantastic and we are lucky as parents to be able to send our children to such a lovely nursery with such committed and lovely staff. I know Toby loves you all. Hopefully he will be back in next week. Thank you x" H.Alcock
"Definitely agree with the stars of the week! I’m sure I speak for all the parents/carers and children when I say, your super efforts are very much appreciated :)" T.Smart
