From the Smilers Nursery Ltd
Our goal at Mini Explorers is to provide young children with a nurturing and educational atmosphere in which they can grow. To ensure that children grow and develop to their greatest potential, we encourage parent partnership and involvement. We work hard to get kids ready for school and to be active members of their families and communities.
We make effort to hire enthusiastic, motivated employees who serve as positive role models for the kids in their care.
Here is what Ofsted had to say about us after they gave us a GOOD rating.
My two kids have gone to Smilers Park House since they were very little. My daughter and son started in the nursery when they were just 10 months old. I have been so moved and mesmerised by my children's growth over the last three years. My kids eagerly anticipate their play days at the nursery and come home beaming. Being a new mother, I felt completely at ease and secure leaving both of my kids in the capable hands of such great, compassionate, and academically competent staff. I would advise everyone to use Smilers, especially new mothers who are hesitant to leave their children with strangers for the first time. further reading.
