Exceptional Care and Genuine Love ★★★★★
Our daughter has been with Seedlings Tale since she was 10 months old, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better start for her. She is thriving, happy, and developing so beautifully – which is a real testament to the care and attention she receives every day.
As a full-time working mum, it means everything to feel completely at peace knowing she is in such loving and capable hands. The team are incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and genuinely care about each child.
Most importantly, my daughter absolutely adores all the staff – she walks in with a smile and leaves just as happy. We are so grateful for everything they do.

Caring, homely and nurturing care ★★★★★
Our little one has been attending Nawal’s childcare since just after he turned one. From the very first day Nawal and the team (Eva, Amani and Meena) created a warm, nurturing, and engaging environment that made our little one feel right at home.
The setting is filled with a variety of fun and educational activities that support our son’s growth and development. It’s clear that Nawal, Eva, Amani and Meena truly care about each child’s well-being, always tailoring their approach to individual needs. We love receiving updates and photos, allowing us to see all the exciting things our little one gets up to! It is also in a lovely location right by the park.
We especially appreciate the loving, family-like atmosphere. Our little one is excited to go in the morning and see all his friends and comes home happy, which speaks volumes about the quality of care provided.
Thank you for everything you do!

Best decision we ever made! ★★★★★
Choosing Nawal and team to look after our daughter was an easy decision, and the best we ever made! She’s been with Nawal for almost 2 years, and loves her and the team as family. She runs in with a smile, eats well, does lots of engaging activities and has made amazing friends. She’s flourished under wonderful care and the whole environment is homely and full of love. This made returning to work much easier for me, and it’s lovely to see the bond our daughter has with Nawal.

Home from home, wonderful and caring environment ★★★★★
Leo has been attending Nawal’s since he was around 10 months old, he is now 2. Nawal and the rest of the team are so caring, so lovely, and have done wonders for Leo’s confidence, development and overall happiness. I have 100% trust and confidence whenever Leo attends Nawal’s, I never need to worry. Leo goes in so excited to see everyone and comes out with a huge smile on his face. You can tell the kids are so loved and so well cared for. A beautiful, safe and cosy environment with plenty of activities and things for the children to learn and do, never a dull moment! Nawal is very good at giving us feedback on how Leo is progressing and if there is anything we need to be aware of, it is so impressive how on top of everything they are and Leo always comes home well fed, stimulated, socialised and just generally so happy and sleeps so well! In particular, Leo’s speech has come on such a long way and it is all down to Nawal’s team. It was the best decision we ever made sending Leo here and we would like all our future children to attend. Thank you for everything Nawal.

Exactly what we were looking for ★★★★★
We cannot recommend Nawal and her team enough. From the moment our son began attending her care in March 2020, we can see how he has thrived and is continuously well looked after. Nawal always responds promptly if I have any minor queries and her portal provides a daily update on everything from nap times to nappy changes!
It is a perfect mix between a home away from home whilst also providing an environment where he can develop alongside other toddlers.
Nawal and the other wonderful carers are nurturing and caring, as well as imaginative at creating fun activities for the children. They provide a well-balanced and nutritious menu every week. Our son regularly asks for his key worker Assiya, who is very popular with all the children!
From being initially shy and a little reserved, our son has since grown in confidence and his speech development has also improved dramatically. We are so impressed with the quality of care that we have decided to introduce our daughter part-time from this April when she turns 9 months. We are happy for Nawal to pass on my contact details should anyone need a recommendation.

Amazing childcare setting! ★★★★★
Poppy and Nawal are both amazing with my little boy. In the past month of him attending, he’s excelled so so much and thoroughly enjoys his days with the girls. Due to a previous bad experience, I was slightly worried about sending him to another childcare setting however Poppy and Nawal have been super supportive to myself and my little one. They love caring for him just as much as he loves them.
I’m always updated throughout the day with what activities they’ve been up to and have pictures sent through too – always a plus to see his happy little smile!!
They’ve helped him improve with his eating massively and he’s coming home each time, more confident.
I couldn’t recommend the girls enough! They are so so thoughtful and understanding and caring, which is exactly what we were looking for 🙂

Beautiful nursery ★★★★★
Both Poppy and Nawal work so hard to make every day special for my little one. Poppy is so caring and amazing at settling her when she’s upset at the beginning of the day. The whole place has such a lovely atmosphere and you really feel like they care so much about your baby unlike other nursery’s I have visited.

Caring and nurturing care ★★★★★
We are so happy with the choice we made for our son. From the beginning, Nawal and her wonderful team have created a warm, nurturing and stimulating environment where he feels safe and settled.
The setting offers a fantastic range of fun and educational activities that support his growth and development. It’s evident that Nawal and the team genuinely care about each child’s wellbeing, thoughtfully tailoring their approach to suit individual needs. We always enjoy receiving the updates and photos, which give us a lovely insight into his day and all the exciting activities he enjoys. The access to local parks and outside space is an added bonus. They even manage to get my son to eat a nice variety of vegetables and I love hearing about all the different food he gets to sample.
What truly sets this childcare apart is its loving, family-like atmosphere and it will be a very sad day when we have to say goodbye to the team (before he starts his next chapter at school).
Thank you for everything.

Loving care provider ★★★★★
Poppy is so wonderfully loving and caring. She is a real natural with children of all ages. She creates a warm, nurturing environment where our children feel completely safe and happy. Poppy is full of engaging activities that support learning and development through play and exploration. She takes the time to truly understand each child’s personality and needs.
She is always so welcoming and polite whilst also encouraging the children’s own good manners and kindness. Her communication is excellent — we’re always kept informed about daily activities and any little moments that make us smile. It gives us complete peace of mind knowing our children are not only well cared for but genuinely cared about.
We cannot recommend her highly enough. She always goes above and beyond and we are so grateful for the love and patience that she shows. She truly is exceptional at what she does. Our children will forever hold a special place for her in their hearts.

Wonderful Childminder! ★★★★★
Nawal has been the childminder for both of our boys, and we truly could not have asked for anyone better. She is incredibly loving, gentle, and genuinely devoted to the children in her care. From the very beginning, she created such a warm and nurturing environment that made our boys feel safe, happy, and excited to spend time with her.
She is wonderfully hands-on — always engaging them in activities, encouraging their development, and giving them so much individual attention. It’s clear how much she cares, and that care shines through in everything she does.
Knowing they are not only safe, but truly loved and well cared for, has meant the world to us. We are so grateful to have had Nawal as such an important part of our boys’ early years.
