Varied, Tasty and Well-balanced meals
Award winning food
Nursery Food Award 2025
We are proud to offer award winning food at Blossom Tree Montessori, recognised with both the Nursery World Food Award and our amazing head chef winning NMT’s Nursery Chef of the Year Award. These awards reflect the care, skill and passion that go into every meal prepared by our dedicated kitchen team.
As part of the judging process, an experienced nutritionist visited the nursery for half a day to spend some time with us. She had a chat with our kitchen team, reviewed our menus to ensure they were nutritionally balanced, observed the children enjoying snack and lunch times in the classroom and even tasted some of the food herself.
Winning these awards is a true testament to the high standards we set and the commitment of our kitchen team to providing healthy, balanced and enjoyable meals for every child.

What parents say
If you are looking for a daycare where your child not only is looked after, entertained and challenged educationally but they are also treated like a part of a family, this is a place for you.
The whole team are incredibly nurturing right from the baby room all the way up to bumblebees. The updates on the app throughout the day are really reassuring, particularly in those first few weeks.
He is truly enjoying himself here and learning so much. We are truly grateful for all your hard work!
A very well structured evening. It was great to be able to go to different areas of learning and see the activities and progress to challenge the children's development
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You have created such a warm environment and Leela certainly feels that it’s a home away from home
As super busy full time working parents it is so important that we feel like everything is world class when we leave our daughter each morning. She is growing and flourishing with their love and care daily
We are so delighted with her development and how she seems to thrive in your care. Violet often shares stories from her day and loves to look at photos and videos
Blossom Tree Montessori is an exceptional nursery. The staff are very kind, caring and nurturing. Our daughter is very happy there - we can see how her confidence has really grown since joining the nursery. The teachers and managers are very approachable and communicate effectively with us
