Very happy with the how professional and nurturing the staff are. My kids have always developed well in all areas and are given the best start to their early years life. They’ve always enjoyed going into nursery which says a lot.

Both my kids attended sunflower nursery. The service is fabulous. The kids are well looked after. The mud kitchen was and still their favourite. The stuff are experienced. Louiza the manager is just the right person in the right place. Well done! Definitely I recommend SUNFLOWER NURSERY.

We love sunflower Nursery. They offer a home away from home in a small nursery setting. The staff are wonderful and extremely attentive to all the kids. We like that kids from different ages get to play together and we think it has really helped our little one to advance very quickly. They have a lovely outdoor space and go on many day trips. They do lots of crafts, music, cooking, reading and play. We couldn’t recommend them more.
