Hey there,


Does anyone have any experience with this nursery?


I got a good feel from the staff and they were great with my twins when I went in for a look around. They held them so that I could take a baby-less wander around and when I collected them they had both contently fallen asleep in the staff's arms. So even though I feel good about it but first hand experience and advice would be very much appreciated.


I felt a bit rushed at 2 other nurseries I went to, one of them impressed me and the other was a definite no-no!


HELP!

Feb 07 full report - http://www.ofsted.gov.uk/oxcare_reports/display/(id)/133921


It was rated inadequate in 2005, 2006, and twice in 2007.


But the 2008 report is much better (rated good)

Looks like they have improved...

Oh dear! What to do, what to do...


Any recommendations then? I am only looking for a Monday, perhaps 2 days at a later date. The twins will be 7 1/2 months when they start so needs to be a nursery that takes that age group.


I am happy to go with a childminder so open to suggestions. I know that a lot of people have chosen not to go back to work fulltime and are off Mondays and/ or Fridays which makes it very convenient for me as Monday is the 1 day that I HAVE to be at work. If I do decide to send the twins 2 days then Friday would be my first choice covering that second day.

      What helps you keep on top of your home?

      There was me overcome with memories of articles in women's magazines from the 1950s advising their readers how to be a good housewife and thinking it's like feminism never happened. Until I read the last paragraph. Be warned, this is PR from someone who runs a cleaning company.

      Carpet can be a pain at times, the maintenance takes effort. I’ll look into that spray as a handy in-between for freshening things up. Steam cleaners are becoming more popular too and definitely seem more hygienic than a mop and bucket.

      BAD ADVICE FROM HOLLAND & BARRETT

      I've found it quite a useful thread.  Apparently protein powders are toxic. Not that I have ever, or will ever, try them.   https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/the-hidden-dangers-of-protein-powders

      Personally can’t stand carpets however where I am renting has carpet in  bedroom and hall. Not great quality and certainly not cleaned. Was  in B & M recently and looking at carpet shampoo -wow got a can costing £2.99 to test.. No scrubbing as others seemed to imply. Spray, leave and poof - smells great, no dabbing or scrubbing and c leaving rubbish. First to admit is only temp solution but no need to hire carpet cleaner instantly  or pay for a company to come and deal with professionally. For 3/6 months happy to have used this - Have a carpet cleaner and in a month or so plan to use it.    Buy a steam cleaner for floors - not expensive - much better than mop and bucket and more hygienic all round. Can pick up second hand ones on e bay.
