Cherry Trees Nursery School

Nice pre-school, with good facilities, and amicable staff. There is an ample outside area and the playrooms are spacious and welcoming. We chose this preschool because of its Ethos, wellbeing policy and curriculum. However, after some sessions and considering our parenting style, we decided not to take our toddler there anymore. From our personal preferences and point of view we did not agree with the following: Lack of emotional intelligence from staff when dealing with the separation processes The shocking thing for me was hearing my toddlers key worker saying to her: oh no, we dont cry at nursery. Also, when trying to discuss with her my concerns she said on repeated occasions how she though I was feeling guilt for having to leave my toddler there (a bit untactful for our taste). Lack of open and continuous communication about settling process between parent and school Lack of active listening from key worker and head teacher when explaining concerns about toddlers wellbeing and parents feelings towards a particular situation We were invoiced wrong, with extra hours, and never got a refund or a mention of one.
