The Carlton Nursery

My son has autism, developmental delay and is preverbal. When we moved to Derby it was very difficult to find a nursery for him. I contacted quite a few nurseries and none of them could accomodate my son. As soon as I spoke to Jo she was so supportive and encouraging. My son attended Carlton from October 2021 to July 2022. Jo, Emily and the staff were amazing, they went above and beyond to accomodate my son. Whilst supporting me at the same time which is vital when having a child with additional needs. The nursery ensured my son got one to one and supported me through the difficult transition to find a specialist provision. They also supported me to access support for myself. My son has developed so much since attending the nursery. He is engaging better with other children, has a better attention span and is much more confident. I cannot recommend Carlton Nursery enough thank you to Jo, Emily and all the amazing staff.

The Carlton Nursery is absolutely brilliant, with passionate staff and great management. The childrens best interest and development are always the highest priority to all staff. The changes that have been made recently have significantly improved the nursery with the introduction of baby days software, which enables parents to have an insight into the childrens care from an app, other changes include the development of outdoor areas and improvement of indoor facilities ( IT room etc). The nursery also has a soft play which my daughter absolutely loves. I cannot recommended them enough you get flexibility which I havent seen at any other nursery (flexibility needed due to changing shift patterns) and an overall welcoming reception. Book a visit now :)

I have been working at the Carlton for over a year now and I honestly havent felt happier. Working at the Carlton is the best decision I have ever made, the management have supported me through difficult times. All off the staff are lovely to work with and have a heart of gold. The owner of the nursery pops in everyday to check to see if we need anything, to see if all of the staff are ok and helps around the nursery. For me personal I think that is very professional and magnificent. I have received the correct training and support to develop my knowledge and understanding of childcare within my role as a Practitioner. As a staff member at the Carlton we make sure all our children are supported within their development and time at setting. We do many activities with the children to assist their needs within the framework. I love being creative with the children and making a mess! The Carlton Nursery is a great opportunity for your children to be as creative as they want and as messy! Thank you Carlton nursery for making me feel valued and enjoy my job every single day! I cant wait for many more years working here :)
