Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of daynurseries.co.uk, said: “We would like to congratulate Daisy Chains at Prestatyn on being rated by parents as a top nursery in Wales. Being chosen as one of the best nurseries in the UK by family and carers of children that attend the setting is a massive achievement.
“The past year has been a huge challenge for nurseries, many of whom were offering childcare to vulnerable and keyworker children during the various lockdowns and giving children that all important ‘normality’.
“We hope these awards will boost the spirits of nursery staff who have been through such a lot and give parents vital guidance in choosing the right nursery for their child.”
“Reviews of our Top 20 nurseries show these settings stimulate and nurture children, improving their social and emotional wellbeing and enhancing their learning.”
