Hopes & Dreams

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 >

Both of my kids have attended Hopes and Dreams (Rushen) and have loved every minute of being there! The staff are so loving and caring towards the children and put their best interest at heart making sure they’re safe at all times. The curiosity approach has worked wonders for my 2 being children who like to investigate things and being outdoors, they’ve had lots of play structure which is a key factor. Communication is brilliant! Will be sad to say goodbye when my little boy goes to school this year :( Thanks so much for the work and input you’ve put towards my children’s lives! Read more >

My little girl has been coming to Hopes and Dreams Ballasalla since January 2023. The staff are lovely and helpful and always happy to help with any concerns. They always reassuring and send messages with photos to let me know she is ok if she was a little sad when she was dropped off initially.
She always enjoys her days here and particularly loves crafting . She is always encouraged to explore and learn new things. A bonus also for me that her manager Lola is Spanish as I am . My little girl is bilingual and is great that she can also speak Spanish in Nursery too. Read more >

I couldn’t recommend H&D Ballasalla enough. My daughter has been attending for 5 months and she has come on leaps and bounds. She looks forward to going every day and has made a lovely group of friends. The teachers are extremely kind, helpful, nurturing and patient. We are very much looking forward to our son starting next year. Read more >

Two of my children have attended Hopes & Dreams and I couldn’t be happier with it. The level of care offered is fantastic, and I feel their experience has offered them everything they could need to make the move to school. Both have loved coming in each morning and a huge part of this is the hard work put in by staff. They have have all been friendly and caring and nurtured my children in a way I aim for myself at home. It will be a sad day when they come to have to leave. Read more >

Absolutely brilliant staff. They are fantastic and I feel so comfortable leaving my daughter Bonnie in their hands. Like part of a family. Bonnie was premature and slightly behind in development but the staff have certainly put in the hard work and she is learning so fast, leaps and bounds. I would recommend Hopes and Dreams to any parent Read more >
