OK, so I'm back to work in a few weeks and currently trying to decide between two nurseries, any advice welcome:
Nursery 1 - in the local village, seemed quite nice when I went to visit, local staff and can do the days I need. Only issue is that its in quite an old building and some of the facilities looked a bit "tired" to me - don't get me wrong, not dirty, just not shiny bright and purpose built. Also would need to compromise with work about start and finish times as I couldn't do an 8am drop off and be in work in less than an hour.
Nursery 2 - about half an hour away, near to my commuting station, bright and shiny and purpose built. Of course, being near to the station they have a waiting list so I'd have to compromise on my preferred days and if I went back to work full time I'd have to go on a waiting list.
Both nurseries have good to outstanding ofsted reports fwiw and seem to have low staff turnover. I'm drawn to the local one because of the community thing and the fact that she'd be in nursery with kids she's more likely to go to school with - but does that really matter at 8 mo?
