Hopes & Dreams

Hopes & Dreams have been fantastic. From the minute we signed up to now, the first few weeks of my little boy starting, communication has been great, the team are really friendly and my boy is settling. It's hard to leave him, and it takes time to get used to it but we feel confident he is being well looked after and any questions we have are always responded to quickly.
Thank you to everyone! Read more >

My daughter has received the best care…and more from the team at Ballasalla H&Ds. I always have meaningful updates throughout the week and they have spent time getting to know my daughter, drop off is always easy and the team can’t do enough for us as a family. I often recommend them to others wholeheartedly. Read more >

My daughter has settled in and absolutely loved her time at Hopes and Dreams. Everything has been very positive and happy. The staff are all lovely and like a second family/home from home for my daughter. Nothing has been too much trouble. My daughter particularly likes the days out and having visits. Thank you for helping her blossom! Read more >

Hopes & Dreams in Douglas has been amazing, they team there have been amazing with our daughter who has loved every minute she is there and to the point trying to get her to come home has been hard as she loves it there so much. She has come on leaps and bounds there and that’s thanks to hopes and dreams. If your looking for somewhere that looks after your children well and allows them to flourish and grow then Hopes and dreams is the place. Can’t thanks him enough for how they have looked after our daughter. They really are an amazing nursery with a great team working for them. Thank you Read more >

I love Hopes and Dreams because I feel my child is safe there. It’s a lovely approach to play and social interaction. The outdoor area is really nice and can be used on dry and wet days. The childcare workers are caring and loving. They are compassionate and give cuddles and hugs if the child is upset. The children have a variety of toys and activities there to ensure they always have something to do. I’m confident that my child will be happy there . Read more >

We have loved the learning approach adopted by H&D, and the spaces and opportunities that my children have been able to enjoy during their time at the nursery. Staff are friendly, caring, committed, and professional, and have helped us navigate a few challenges along the way. The boys love the adventures, and the app used to share updates is fab. Thank you for everything, and keep doing what you do so well! ⭐️ Read more >

My little boy has been at Hopes and Dreams Rushen since he was 2.
I can not recommend the staff and nursery enough, nothing has ever been too much trouble.
My child has came on so much in the 2.5 years he has been attending and we will all miss nursery very much when he starts his journey in reception come September.
They have regular outings which are always thoroughly enjoyed by my child.
We are kept up to date regularly both via the app with pictures and messages and also during handovers. Read more >

My daughter absolutely loves it here at the Ballasalla Hopes and Dreams. I cannot fault the care and attention that she receives here.
She has come on absolute leaps and bounds since starting in September 2022.
I have no doubt that she has been fully prepared for her start at primary school.
Every single member of staff are wonderful.
I can’t wait for my son to take her place I’m September 2024 Read more >

I have loved hopes and dreams since my son attended from 2019 so I knew this was where I wanted my daughter to go when she turned 2! I love how messy my daughter comes home as it shows how much fun she’s had, I like how the children are outside playing as she loves being outside. Being able to drop her off with just her coat and hat is amazing as everything else is provided by the nursery nappies, water, meals & snacks. The food menu has lots of variety and I’m hoping this will help my daughter become a better eater! All the staff are lovely and so helpful if I have a question or need any support x Read more >
