Parent testimonials

“I am struggling to write what I want to say concisely and clearly because I want to say so much about Scallywags!!! It is wonderful because it is an engaging and exciting place to learn. We love that Scallywags has embraced the Hygge approach and structures all of the learning around the natural world, as well as the child led approach. As a result of this, my daughters have a fascination with nature and use their imagination so well. At home they prefer to play outside with natural resources, and this is because Scallywags has motivated and inspired them. Alongside that, my child is challenged with new vocabulary linked to the weekly theme each week that even we didn’t know the meaning of!”- Nature Club Parent

“We honestly cannot thank the Scallywags team enough for the ongoing support we have had with my child’s speech and language, especially from Nic who has always been at the end of the phone, email or even in person - to have someone listen and talk to means a lot. Your dedication and passion in making sure he is able to express his needs at the nursery has also always been appreciated. We know he adores his Scallywags family, and we feel confident as parents that he is never left out because of not being able to communicate quite as easily as others.” Little Explorer Parent

“We really like the Scallywags ethos, it immediately stood out from other nurseries when we were looking round - it felt very homely and happy, not like a classroom. I like the fact that my son is encouraged to love nature, and care about the environment, and that the day’s activities are designed around the interests of the children. I’ve been especially happy with how key worker, Zoe, has helped our son settle in, she instantly made him feel safe and secure, and made us feel relaxed about sending him to nursery.” - Jungle Cub Parent
