    I would like to say..Balloon Nursery is not a school..but a home!. Since my daughter is attending this Nursery, i have never gotten any incident. They have a great priority in children's safety👌. My baby always come home so happy and is always happy to go to school. Even on weekends, she will wake up and cry to go to school. A child can only get this comfortable where they find a home. Ms Yasmeen has been such a great Leader and has a well organized team. They give children the opportunity to explore both indoors and outdoor learning. Ms Yasmeen always initiate great and exciting adventures and activities which is age appropriate. Zoey's communication has developed, she has great sense of her surroundings..due to the exciting activities the team always make available for them. Was so worried about my baby's communication and social life..but Balloon Nursery has taken that burden off my mind. I'm typing this much cause I'm so happy😀. The changes are so evident and i don't even know how much to express it. Thank you Ms Yasmeen and team.

    I would like to share my personal experience with Balloon Nursery. It has a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere with well-trained and dedicated staff. The nursery offers a wide variety of activities, and the teachers are extremely hardworking and caring.The activities they provide play a significant role in nurturing children’s behaviour, language fluency, and confidence. I personally love the way the children are welcomed every day—it is truly amazing and heart-warming. A special mention to the Principal, Ms. Yasmeen. She is very friendly and approachable, and she creates a highly positive and supportive environment in the nursery. I have noticed a drastic and positive change in my daughter’s behaviour within a short period of time. I am truly grateful to the entire team at Balloon Nursery.
