“Smartpractice are a consultancy that specialise in nurseries and, with this being our first stand-alone Day Nursery, became extremely useful with their knowledge of this type of facility. Throughout the project they have been professional yet very friendly and approachable.

Their enthusiasm for this building type became infectious and with their input we were able to enhance our design into a practical, working nursery that led to the successful registration by OFSTED shortly after handover. Although there are various documents and information that we could have used, Smartpractice with their hands-on experience and helpfulness within the short time-scale became an invaluable member of the design team and we would certainly recommend their inclusion on other projects.”
