    "Thank you for all you do"

    "Little Green Rascals is a caring, nurturing and fun place to be. We moved our eldest here and our youngest now attends. They are happy and confident girls and this is in part down to the love and dedication of the Rascals team. Thank you for all you do."

    "Our daughter loves the nursery"

    "Staff have great communication with us, overall fantastic. More importantly, our daughter loves the nursery and her development is great. The location is fantastic, food for the children covers all styles and types and helps my daughter who has intolerances."

    "Absolutely incredible setting"

    "Absolutely incredible setting. My child absolutely loves going and has come along so much already even though he has only been attending a month. All of the staff have been incredible and have helped him settle in so well. The menu is incredible and enough to make me jealous."

MINSTER YARD TEAM

A close-knit and
eco-friendly city nursery

"I love my job. It is such a nice feeling coming to work and enjoying what I do each and every day, and the rascals that I look after play a big part in that. Since being very young I have always wanted to work with children.

I completed my Early Years teacher qualification to enable me to offer children some wonderful quality learning opportunities."
