I'm sorry to say that I was rather disappointed in my experience at Molly's for the following…read morereasons: 1)No food on offer apart from a few sandwiches and it was 2pm! 2)The place looked filthy, food all over the floor, tables full of empty cartons and wrappers. 3)Simply a place where some parents go so they can sit on their back side and not give a toss, I was not letting my 3 year old go in there unattended so I played in the Jungle Gym with her, as there was older children rough housing and children who are too young for the larger soft play area crawling about and getting hurt general lack of supervision by the children's parents, who seem to forget that they are responsible to supervise their children with in the facility.

I have worked for this childcare agency for a year now and I believe they provide a great service…read more Supermums hires out nannies or babysitters for every occasion, to help out at weddings, for day time nurseries, to hotels or just to people's houses. All of us are fully disclosure cheacked before we are even hired, we all have child experience and are given basic first aid knowlege. I am not entirely sure how much they charge as I am sure I am only given some of the fee but if you are looking for someone responsible to look after your children this is the place to call!

When i went for my interview i handed over £20 for the disclosure check and was affirmed by the lady that job offers would soon come.

Nursery seems lovely inside. However, we were very disappointed by poor communication/…read moremisinformation by owners. Following a telephone enquiry to the nursery we were informed a space was available for our daughter. We therefore took time off from work to visit with our daughter. Again we were told space was available on the days required. We therefore completed the paperwork and heard nothing for 10 days. We then received an email to say might not be able to accommodate on one of the days. We queried by return email and heard nothing back. A few weeks later we telephoned and asked if space was available on a different day. Owner said he was in the middle of dealing with a banking issue and could he get back to us. That was 6 weeks ago, still waiting on a reply. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL and complete disregard for other peoples time and energy. Separate issue, and small point on fee structure, not good value if child attends on a Monday. Fee structure states that there are 4 Monday holidays that are charged for but nursery may be closed, likewise for Good Friday. Shame organisational side of things not that good as facilities seem lovely.

My child was placed in this nursery and it has been a truly shocking experience…read more The turnover of staff referred to by an ex-employee can be endorsed as a parent. My child had no continuity of care whatsoever. Transparency with the fee structure is a big issue. No monthly invoices are sent out to parents. Different parents are charged different prices. Mistakes in monthly payments by direct debit are endemic. Check your account very very carefully if your child attends this nursery. The nursery charges for all 52 weeks of the year but is closed for the entire Xmas-New Year period. Management are shambolic and frequently fail to respond to parental correspondence. The nursery seems to be sued regularly - by HMRC and by suppliers. I cannot stress enough that you should read all the Care Commission and HMIE reports. They are not good.

There has been a constant team in her room for a few months now and new members of the senior team who seem to know exactly what they are doing. From speaking with other Mum's and colleagues with kids at nursery staff turnover is always going to be a potential issue whatever nursery they attend. My little girl adores the staff and is delighted when we arrive there in the morning. They could not be more caring and interested in her and her development, and my baby only attends 2 days per week, but that does not seem to impact levels of attention nor interest. We have had the odd issue with billing, but it has always been rectified. I can't comment on different people being billed different amounts and not sure how anyone apart from someone who worked there would know that? Anyway I wanted to put across a different viewpoint as we are really happy with the care and attention of the staff, and think the reviews below do the current staff a real disservice.
