“My little girl has been coming here for 3 months now and has developed so well with her speech, eating, social skills, counting, the list goes on. The staff are amazing with her and she is excited to go every day and tell me the things she has learnt when I pick her up. The space is so open and colourful and lots of things to learn from and play with. Would definitely recommend this nursery to any parent.”

“My son absolutely loves going to Monkey Puzzle. The nursery is vibrant, clean and welcoming when you enter. The staff are fantastic. My son’s keyworker has been so wonderful at helping us with potty training. It is clear she has made the effort to build a strong relationship with him and this shows in the excellent feedback I receive on pick up. I love that she has taken the time to learn what he is interested in and also get to know my parenting style. I love how the staff change the room layout which keeps my son engaged and entertained. They are excellent at hygiene and my son loves the washing hands song- which helps at home! The staff are fast to respond to queries either face to face or by email. I would highly recommend Monkey Puzzle.” – Lou W.

“All of the staff at Monkey Puzzle Otley are so lovely! They made my return to work an easy transition for both my daughter and I. Nothing is too much to ask and they go above and beyond to accommodate your child. The open-plan, bright setting is fun and enables all of the children to do so many different things and all of the activities they do are exciting and educational. You can also be sure your child will be eating well while they are there, the menu is amazing! We are really glad we chose Monkey Puzzle Otley!” Charlotte Gill

“I moved my one year son to this nursery. He is very active and this nursery provides a good spectrum of activities for babies with different abilities and interests. The staff are welcoming and my son has bonded with them quickly. I can now go to work feeling happy that he is having a fun and interesting day.”

“Monkey Puzzle in Otley has been fantastic for my child. The building itself it’s stunning, it’s fresh and inviting for not just children but parents too. The management team are fantastic, very friendly and approachable.

After my last experience, I was uneasy about putting my child another nursery. However, after speaking to the manager on an open day, I felt at ease immediately and felt respected and that my opinion mattered. The outdoor area is fantastic and very inviting for children and parents. I would highly recommend Monkey Puzzle to any of my friends or family” Laura S
