Our clients’ testimonials speak volumes about our services and commitment. Get an insight into their experiences.

My first daughter started attending Destiny Haven Nursery since she was 10 months old, and my second daughter just finished to go to reception so 7 years in total and I have nothing but good things to say about the nursery. The staff are kind and caring and did a brilliant job of looking after and educating my daughters. They are thriving!

“To All The Staff at Destiny Haven, Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Ada. She’s always loved coming to nursery and that’s because you’ve made it such a warm and loving environment. These are just a selection of the fun, educational and varied activities you’ve provided.Thank you for everything.”

Clare and Tom.

Parent of Toddler

“Hi everyone, Just a msg to say thank you for highlighting and teaching Sariah about Black History during this month. I was so overwhelmed with the information that Sariah had learnt at nursery about black history. She was able to retain what she was taught and was able to articulate it back to me. She had told me about, what she had learnt about a particular black inventor, in which she had extended my knowledge, as I didn’t know who this person was or what they had achieved. I can see that Sariah is doing fantastic learning at nursery. She recently demonstrated to me that she is learning her phonics. Again, I am overwhelmed and extremely happy. Thank you all for your hard work. It hasn’t gone unnoticed.”

Parent of Pre-schooler

“Stanley has been attending Destiny Haven nursery since he was 13 months old. We have always felt the nursery was a safe and nurturing environment and the staff have always been attentive and friendly. The communication in person and through the ‘Famly’ app has always made us feel that Stanley’s needs are being met. They have been very accommodating to support us when we have requested last minute ‘early starts’ or when I was incapacitated they brought Stanley home. This, I believe is a reflection on how generous and compassionate the organisation is as a whole. Stanley has always wanted to attend nursery and this is demonstrated through his eagerness to walk through the door, forgetting to say good bye to his parents or loved ones who are dropping him off for the day. Stanley must feel this is a safe place for him and this is very reassuring for his parents. My husband and I have always felt we have made the right choice choosing Destiny Haven to look after of our child.”

Alexandra S.

Parent of Baby

“To everyone at Destiny Haven, Thank you so much for taking such good care of Ravi this year. He had a rough start, but he was very lucky to be surrounded by such caring and patient people while he adjusted to the idea of going to nursery every day! Thank you also for preparing delicious vegetarian meals just for Ravi – he has clearly enjoyed them! We really appreciate the hard work that you all do, to cater to each child’s uniqueness and make them feel comfortable and happy. Wishing you all the best – we will miss you!”
