Reviews
My daughter JoJo has been here since she was 5 months old and sadly had to leave for some reason. Thank you so much for the dedication of the caregivers here, I know JoJo is happy here because every time I drop her off she leaves without looking back and doesn't even want to say bye bye to me haha, thank you and I hope you you get better and better in the future.
Really lovely small setting near the park. The staff are all very nice and friendly, my daughter absolutely loves going and we really enjoy receiving the diary and photo/video updates. I like that it’s so close to the park as they get to go quite frequently and I know my daughter really loves playing outside so it’s a huge plus for us. She’s been on a few little outings with the nursery too which is really nice for her (lots of book bug sessions at the library, art gallery, safari trip soon) and it’s nice to see that she’s been trying lots of new foods and activities. Would recommend!
Organized nursery and Very nice place for kids .. very kind and generous staff as well
Not soo good 😕 actually disappointed when picking up ur child and ur late 5 min and have pay £15 and they charge I pay more than that
lovely nursery. staff are super friendly and helpful towards my son. Highly recommend
My son started during covid times, where it was an uneasy times trusting other people with your child, who had dietary restrictions, from the first point of contact I was put at ease, Boo and her fantastic team at Techno Tots really do go above and beyond for every child. My son loved his time at nursery and the prepared him very well for school. He still talks about his experience at nursery to this day!

I’m so glad that I chose Kidzrus Media City for my son to go to. He’s been there over 10 months now and he always comes home with a big smile on his face. At first I found it really difficult to leave him but the staff were so understanding and caring, I can’t thank them enough for that. They always keep me updated on his day and the activities they are doing. I can see my son’s development flourishing, it’s a relief to know he’s in such good hands. Highly recommend!
I would highly recommend this nursery to all parents that are looking for a safe place for their kids. I can’t express enough how much my son learned there and he absolutely loves the place ! All the staff and super friendly and supportive. If there is anything that may cause a concern they will let you know straight away! Very happy!
Great nursery and great staff. My daughter loved the place so so much. Sad we need to leave due to moving accommodation.
Would strongly recommend the nursery

We looked at a few different nurseries for son and thought Kidzrus Media City was the best one in the area straight away. The separate rooms give a calming atmosphere, which is especially important when starting in the baby room. The staff are all very supportive and our son seems to be doing well at start of his transition into the tots room. He eats lots of food and seems to have a good time. Our second son has just been born and I expect we'll be sending him here too once our parental leave ends. It's also conveniently located on my way to work.
My daughter hated the first nursery we put her in so we moved to Kidz r us and we could see the difference in her straight away! Best thing we ever did! All the ladies are amazing, communication is amazing, they do regular activities, interact with the babies and send you photos. It really is like a little family. Couldn't recommend them enough!
After previously attending a different setting, my husband and I moved both our kids to kidzrus. Best decision ever!! Both our children thrived so much within this setting, they loved going in each day without any resistance. My only regret is not putting the kids into Kidzrus sooner.
A Credit to the entire staff base for making this nursery such a wonderful setting for my kids. Thank you x

Our son has been going here since he was 8 months old. We viewed a lot of nurseries but knew as soon as we visited this was the place for our son and we haven't looked back.
The team are lovely and most importantly know my son and his personality so can spot if he's a bit off. I'm sure if he could speak he'd applaud the cooking as he never stops eating when he's there. He has a little group of friends and favourite people and clearly has fun when he's there
I've only heard positively things from friends and health visitors about the nursery.

I have sent both my boys to Little Rascals they are only 17 months apart so was pretty much one after the other. They have both thrived. My youngest in particular has formed an amazing bond with his Key worker. He would always ask for his Ashley when I dropped him off. I was really sad to take him away to start school nursery but it is where his brother is so I think it is better for them to be together. But I always dropped him off knowing he was going to be well looked after, entertained, loved and fed. Thank you for looking after my boys Little Rascals.
Both of my children started this Nursery at the age of one, I couldn’t be more happy with their care they have provided over the years. Their level of professionalism is outstanding, every member of staff is warm and welcoming. Both of my children love going to nursery and have created great bonds with the staff. I’ve never had any issues it’s a perfect environment for any children to learn and grow! Their food is also amazing with different healthy options each week that both my children always demolish! The management have been amazing helping settle my anxiety i would highly recommend Kidz r us!
Excellent nursery and the staff are always welcoming and helpful in helping children to grow and develop. My youngest son has been going to this nursery since he was 12 months old and my oldest son attended the nursery from 12 months until school age. It is a lovely learning environment and we are very pleased with the service. In particular, the Blossom app is great for checking my son’s diary and he enjoys the music classes each week!
Outstanding nursery, staff, service and care. Never felt more confident leaving my child in such a safe environment. The care is outstanding, the food is so nutritious and playtime isn’t only fun but educational. Highly recommended. Thank you to your amazing team!
Fantastic nursery, amazing staff and management. Both my children have attended this nursery (one still attending).
Best nursery in the area in my opinion, having previously visited many before making the decision.

What a lovely, happy and secure place this is! My little girl has been here since the baby room and is now ready for Reception. The staff have helped her to learn and grow into the happy, confident and bubbly little lady, who is ready for her next chapter. Staff have come and gone but the ethos of the place remains the same, child centred and parental involvement. The staff, whether new or old, are just as excited and happy to see the children everyday and always greet you with a warm smile and a little chat at the door. I would recommend this place 100 times over to anyone!
Outstanding Nursery!!!
My son went to little rascals from the age of one till going to school, the staff here are fantastic, they go above and beyond for the children in their care, the feedback we get at the end of the day is very informative and so is the information on the app. The resources in the nursery are exceptional. in preschool they have a french teacher come in to learn french through play my son loved this, and loved telling us what words he had learnt. I would highly recommend this nursery to any1 who needs childcare for their children. This nursery has helped prepare my son for school in a positive way, which can be seen in his confidence in walking into school today.

My little girl has been with little rascals Aldridge since she was 6 months and couldn't be happier. Always smiling when I pick her up and has no problems going. All the staff go above and beyond always updating the app with what activities they are doing, food bottles etc. New management in the last few months and they are amazing. Always looking for ways to improve the nursery and take on feedback. Loads of toys to play with and the roots to growth programme is brilliant. Love the fact my child is able to express themselves through all the activities there. Staff are so friendly and approachable nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!
Rude horrible staff wouldn’t recommend sending your children here
Both of our kids go to here, Siobhan is the best teacher we've ever met. She and her team care about our children, each time we told Siobhan about our concerns she paid attention and solved the issues.We feel kids are safe in this nursery.
The nursery is very organized, clean, tidy, staffs are very friendly too.We get report about the kids nursery's daily activities in verbal or writing.
Most important, the kids love to go to nursery everyday, they enjoyed playing with friends and teachers in the nursery.
Breakfast, hot lunch and snacks all inclusive in price.
The Kevingrove Park is only 2 minutes walk from nursery, where kids could go to play, very nice environment around.

AVOID. Let me tell you…this nursery is just somewhere I will not send my child again. I do not feel comfortable at all with this place. They fail to update the app telling you exactly what your child is doing, their golden moments and what they eat. And when they do, they try to tell me my child has eating most of his food or all of it when I know for a fact my child NEVER eats all of his food. His golden moments haven’t been updated in a month.
Every week my child is in the accident book but apparently his watched. We got his 2 year assessment which stats he doesn’t do certain things when I know he does. So either my child doesn’t feel comfortable enough to be his normal bubbly self in this nursery or the staff fail to assess him correctly. I really do not trust these people with my child when he has a breakdown every time his taken to the nursery. I really would suggest rethinking before choosing this nursery.

Was told this location is not open for public. Only for student nurses and St Mary staff. Total waste of time. Rude receptionist.
This has been a great place for our son to develop, he's been going to Maple tree since he was 5 months old.The guys at the nursery are very welcoming and always greet our little one every morning with a smile which makes drop offs so much easier.
The best review is that he does come home talking about his nursery teachers and is always excited to go. I recently visited a few nurseries closer to home but decided that they didn't compare with what we have seen at this nursery. One of the biggest differences I noticed is that the staff at Maple tree engage more in conversation with our son and I think this has been something he would have missed if we had moved him.
Overall great staff, healthy menu, and definitely somewhere our son has thrived in development.

This is one of the worst places to use for your childcare.
We used it for our little daughter. As we work at Glasgow university, we take our lunch break near the nursery. We observed that the nursery staff take the children for walks every afternoon (4 children in every pram) no matter how bad the weather was and leave them crying and screaming in the prams while they chat and laugh carelessly. The negligence is absolutely not acceptable and heartless. We tried to explain the situation to the manager more than once but she seems to live in total denial and unwilling to address any of our worries. We removed our child from the nursery and moved her to the university nursery. Please, if you care about your child and want to leave them in safe hands, avoid this nursery at all costs.

My daughter has attended this Nursery for the past few months and if I could I'd keep her there forever😂 the staff are amazing, my daughter loves going and is always excited and has positive things to say when I ask about her day, the dinners and breakfasts they provide are nutritious. Could praise this nursery untill the cows come home, all the staff who care for my child have formed an amazing bond with her and she feels welcomed and comfortable with everyone there. I HIGHLY recommend this nursery and I cannot preach how PERFECT the staff are. Do not hesitate to enquire if you're looking in the area, I can assure you your child will be in the best hands
Our Son has been with Maple Tree since he was 8 months old, i will be sad to see him leave for school next year - The team are always informative, accommodating, supportive, friendly and professional. A What a happy, friendly little nursery! Could not recommend them enough!
Our son has been at the nursery for nearly 18-months. During this time, all of the staff have been huge support where he has struggled with confidence, by going above and beyond supporting him emotionally, working through such a challenging time for everyone. The staff have been really good with updates with daily sheets and pictures (until the tables sadly got stolen). We would highly recommend Holyrood Nursery to look after, develop and create a fun environment for all children.
Best nursery! My daughter has came on so well thanks to the staff at technotots. They communicate every little thing and the prices are fab! Highly recommend this nursery
I put my son when he was 7 months and it was a very bad experience to us. I totally agree with Nora's comment, it happened exactly the same with my son one of the days I Went there to pick him up and I had to wait because they toke the babys to a park near the nursery, when they returned what was my surprise? My baby boy had a big lump on his forehead. I asked the staff they answered that didn't know why. Next that the manager said to me "I investigated with all. Staff and nobody knows what happened with boy's forehead".
It was the worsest experience of my life as a mother, the best think was take off my son from this unprofessional nursery.
He was in Happitots nursery and it was the best experience for him, happy child every day.

My little boy LOVES this nursery. Everyday he is excited to go. They have an amazing garden one of the best in the area. It is no suprise why this nursery is rated OUTSTANDING by ofsted. Lots of activities such as foot ball, yoga, phonics and nursery rhymes just what every child loves.
The staff are amazing and have helped my son come on leaps and bounds since he started. Lee is a credit to the nursery and absolutely fabulous with zachary. My little boy talks about him so much as well as dawn.
I will be sad when my little boy starts school and no longer attends here as he loves it that much.
I was worried when he first started about leaving him but there was no need as each and every member of staff goes above and beyond to make the children feel settled and welcomed. I would not hesitate in using this nursery for any future children.
Thank you for providing a wonderful nursery.

My daughter has been going to holyrood swinton for just over a year and well what can i say....... Its fantastic. They are not just a nursery they are a family, a family i love being part of!!!! From the very first time i stepped in to the reception i was made to feel so welcome and at ease, now a year on you are all my go to people. The advice and support the team give is invalueble to me. The development in my daughter in just 1 year is amazing. I cant fault a single person from Donna and Dawn in a morning who always have a genuine smile even at 7.30am to Sarah and Hayley who are still smiling at 5pm. The team here are so good it takes me and my daughter half an hour to do a simple 5 minute pick up as everyone knows her and she knows all of them and insists on saying bye! So holyrood Swinton, thankyou you truly are all amazing at what you do
At first, I thought a nursery with a cheaper fee would have lower quality of service compared to the expensive ones, but I was wrong. Holyrood Nursery Salford is totally a wonderful nursery. The staffs are really professional and always try to deliver the best that they can. They are also flexible in terms of managing the slots which my wife finds it is really helpful especially when she is a postgraduate student and sometimes her timetable has to change depending on her supervisor's availability. In short, I would really recommend Holyrood Nursery Salford. Excellent staffs, affordable fees, couldn't be better. Thanks Holyrood!
Is not only a Nursery is a big family. I let my daughter there and I know she will be more than fine. The staff is amazing. Simply the best. More than 5 stars...
My daughter has been in this nursery for almost a year and she is very happy and content here. Staff are always helpful and special requests always accommodated. It's quite small so has a nice family feel to it as you get to know everybody that works here over time. Would definitely recommend.
A nice place for 6 months to 5 yrs old to play and learn as they wish. The nursery makes their little world fun and also creative. They care for yr little one and love them in their own way. They are patient with them as well as tough woith them in a lovely way. What can I say its a fun place to be :)
My toddler has been very happy at Dryden: he enjoys the varied indoor & outdoor activities, the delicious daily lunch and tea prepared on-site, and is very attached to his teachers. His face lights up every day when we get to the gates. We feel very confident about dropping him off here each day, and couldn’t be more pleased with the rapport the teachers have with the children, the thought that goes into the types of activities provided, and the degree to which the management is attentive to any questions or concerns that arise (something I especially appreciate as a new mum). It is an outstanding nursery.
A wonderful nursery. Highly recommended. The staff super-friendly with both parents and kids.
Fantastic home from home nursery! Staff are brilliant and treat all children equally. My son is obviously well cared for and loves to go to nursery. Activities are frequent and are very development focused whilst remaining fun and engaging. Staff are more than happy to take time out to speak to you. Car parking is very convenient. Variety of food served is fantastic. The garden space is amazing! I couldn't ask for more from a nursery.
Holyrood Salford have been a great support whilst our daughter has been settling in and she’s settled in just fine. She loves it.
We really like the fact that a lot of play is outside where kids can be kids and get the fresh air they need.
Our daughter skips in and comes home smiling telling us all about her day ‘at work’.
We feel content and reassured leaving our daughter there with such brilliant and highly qualified staff. :)

Excellent nursery with very caring and lovable staff. Our 3yo son attends mornings 4 days a week and absolutely loves it. He asks "can we go now?" at 7am every morning! Always talking about his friends and teachers at nursery.
He comes home with new skills every day. New songs, knowing the days of the week, or the entire alphabet! He never ceases to amaze us with how much he picks up from half a day at Holyrood.
We're very happy we chose Holyrood Swinton and have decided to keep our son in for pre-school rather than him attend a primary school. Highly recommended!

Simply perfect Nursery. Thanks everyone to make my daughter life great and happy and healthy since we started Holyrood. Nursery have full of love, fun and care beside great help for development of the kids. Thank you so much for everything :)
I’ve worked at holyrood now for 14 months and ive had the best time working here, I’ve been in the toddler room and currently in the baby room and I have gained so much experience. 3 of my sisters and my brother have been through this nursery. All of the staff do an amazing job and all go out of their way to help. The manager and deputy manger do a brilliant job to make everybody feel comfortable and welcome. Would highly recommend for parents and children
I am an employee at holyrood swinton and I have worked there for 8 months . This nursery brings positivity to all staff. All staff are welcoming and friendly, and our managers makes sure that all children are safe and welcomed and are lovely people to work with. I recommend this nursery to all parents as this nursery is one of the best nurseries and is really close to home.
What a lovely nursery. My daughter is always beaming with happiness when I pick her up and the activities she gets involved in are always varied and interesting for her. We had to go through a few nurseries until we found this one and am very happy with our decision!
One of the worst nurseries in Glasgow. I put my 8 month daughter there due to this nursery being the only one with spaces. in the first month my daughter was badly injured and came back home with bruised face. The staff did not hand me any incident report and they claimed to never witness anything happening to my little girl. After complaining to the manager and sending her pictures of the injuries she was able to identify the staff responsible. my 8 month old daughter was left to eat in unsecured chair without supervision and she did fall and hit her face against the table edge. I stopped sending my daughter there immediately. the manager promised to send CCTV images of the incident but she never did and also there was no consciousness to the staff involved whatsoever.
I have been using little Rascals for over four years! My children love the place and I really feel valued as a parent. They always let me know how my children are doing and what they have been up to. Recently they have started using the diary and I love it! My child has Additional needs and they have supported not only my child but my family too. This has supported us with the transition to big school! After reading a review on here today I feel that people only hear the negative but this nursery, the staff and the management are really impressive and should be celebrated! So a massive thank you guys, please ignore them your brilliant xxxxx
Our twins have been at Somerset since they were 12 months old. Now 4 and still loving it.
Quirky hotel accommodation in Glasgow 5 mins from main shopping locations, near pubs bars restaurants. clean tidy hotel good staff and service
What a fantastic place and great people
Nice clean room, comfortable beds, breakfast was offered but didnt take. Very nice and polite staff
My son went here for 4 years and my daughter now goes. Cannot recommend enough. Lovely nursery x
I must disagree with the negative comments about Maple Tree Nursery. Its a fabulous place for any child of any cultural background. The facilities are second to none, it is obvious that you can have a negative experience anywhere. But no where is perfect! The staff are friendly and have lots of experience and expertise, the apprentice staff work hard to support the children too. The management team are very caring, friendly and understanding. They are professional in handling matters sensitively, and took care of personal family and financial matters well. So I can not fault this nursery and no-one else should do so either. Keep up the fantastic work Maple Tree, you guys deserve an 'Outstanding' rating.
Nursery (private but) associated to The University of Manchester.
Stayed at Adelaide's guest house during Celtic connections 2017. It was great for exporting the city and close to multiple festival venues. The service was good and rooms clean and had everything I needed. Will stay again here when visiting Glasgow.
My little girl started at Mulberry Bush when she was 9 months old, she is nearly 2 now. As a new mum, I was put at ease by the friendly, knowledgeable and professional staff who helped us manage a big change - me more than my daughter! My daughter is a happy confident little person, who loves nursery, running in each morning, excited for the day ahead. I couldn't ask for any more. I feel safe in the knowledge that my daughter is receiving a great care from a passionate team of people who are consistently outstanding, whatever day it is.
My little girl started to attend mulberry bush Whitfield at just 3 months old, as a new mum the staff guided me through the whole process with ease and understanding, answering every question I had.Nothing is ever too much trouble and my little girl smiles every day when she arrives at nursery. I feel happy knowing I have left her in the safest environment I possibly could with people who provide an outstanding level of care.
My daughter has attended this school for 5 years and I have been very impressed by the level of care shown to all girls in the school. The staff will go over and above the average to help girls in need either with school work or over personal issues. There is a warmth and security in the school environment in which girls thrive and can develop their own personalities without fear of ridicule. Many opportunities are open to the girls including foreign trips, Duke of Edinburgh, Charitable work, sport, cooking, debating etc. There exists a range of bursaries so girls from all different economic backgrounds can attend. I rate this school very highly.
Location was great. Room was very comfortable. Breakfast was not great. Was expecting a full English breakfast but didn't get that
The downstairs room i had was pleasant enough but being adjacent to the child care centre and kitchen /dining room there was a non stop slamming of doors outside my room by staff . This meant that there was no possibility of a peace and quiet from 7 am thru 5pm Monday to Friday.
Not worth the money at all. Didn't prepare my child for school, and could have got the same care at other nurseries in the area for a lot less money. The 15 hours 'free' also didn't work out as they charge over £10 per day for what is effectively a lunch and a few snacks.....
Very nice small hotel, with extremely friendly staff. The rooms are simple but clean and the continental breakfast very reasonable.
