Amazing nursery! Staff are incredible, professional and clearly knowledgeable. They treat the children as their own and make it feel like a home away from home.

My daughter loves HDC nursery. The staff are so lovely and you can tell they really care about her and are invested in her development. She's genuinely happy to see everyone when we drop her off. Meals always look varied and she does a good range of activities throughout the day. The app is a great
tool so that I can see what she gets up to and I love receiving pictures of her all happy and smiling. One piece of feedback would be that some days I don't seem to get as many updates through - meals aren't logged etc. but on the whole, were delighted with the nursery.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at hdc Newton Abbot

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're so happy to read that your daughter loves our setting and that you value the care, activities, and updates we provide. We appreciate your note on the app updates and will look into ensuring consistency.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at HDC Newton Abbot! The staff are incredibly caring and make every effort to ensure our child feels safe, happy, and supported each day.
From local walks to visits around the local area including the train station, our child is always engaged in exciting
learning opportunities that spark curiosity and creativity.
The meals provided are fantastic-healthy, well-balanced, and with plenty of variety to suit different tastes. We appreciate the focus on nutritious food, and it's great to know our child is eating well while at nursery.
Communication with us as parents has been excellent. We are well-informed with regular updates - the team is approachable and happy to answer any questions, which gives us real peace of mind.
Overall, HDC Newton Abbot is a fantastic nursery, and we would highly recommend it to any parents looking for a caring and enriching environment for their little one!

Our toddler has now been attending HDC Newton Abbot for nearly a year. We are so pleased that we chose this nursery for him and he has absolutely thrived there.
I was very worried about sending him off to nursery at 11 months old but he has settled wonderfully. He's now nearly 2 and he loves nursery,
has made friends and has an absolutely lovely time every day.
Communication is clear and frequent. The app is regularly updated and we can see what he's been up to throughout the day. We love having photo updates of him and can always see how much fun he's having.
The team take the time to get to know you as a family and nothing is too much trouble.
Day to day activities are varied and age appropriate.
The food provided is brilliant with a great variety of healthy, balanced meals and snacks.
We highly recommend HDC to anyone. Special shout-out to the manager and the Orchard team for their excellent work.

My toddler really loves coming to nursery and benefits hugely from her time here. She has learned important social skills, but also learns fine and gross motor skills, language skills and is even learning to count. The staff work so hard and always make the day fun and fulfilling. Events of the day,
including meals eaten and sleep timings, are uploaded onto a secure app so I know what my toddler has been up to in the day. The kitchen and garden have recently been renovated. When the weather is good, my daughter and her peers are taken to the local park to play which they all enjoy.
I feel reassured that my daughter is happy and safe here and I'd highly recommend HDC Newton Abbot to other parents.

from C D (Mother of Child) published on 13 March 2025

Our experience at nursery has gone from strength to strength. Since September our son has grown in confidence and now loves attending nursery, he spent 4 months in the toddler room before moving up to pre-school. Whilst this felt like a huge and quite early jump he is getting in brilliantly in this
room and the staff are great. We love the fact the nursery is one large space divided at adult height into "rooms" - we feel this brings the staff and children together into one collaborative organisation rather than being split up and separate. It definitely made the move up to pre-school less intense for us. When we have had one or two issues (e.g. querying the use of iPads by the children) we had responses very quickly and the management team are efficient and effective at dealing with questions and concerns, notably all staff are open to conversations with parents about the children and what they do. We would recommend this nursery whole heartedly to others.

Very pleased I chose this nursery for my child who has started in the baby room. A fully comprehensive tour was given including how they would evacuate all of the babies in the event of a fire. The staff take the time to get to know the children and I applaud their outstanding care of the entire group
daily, as I often see them when they are at full capacity. Their equipment is keep up to date and new, all in working order and at a suitable height for the age of the children. They encourage development at the rate of each individual child and I believe that mine has benefitted greatly from an individual approach. Their use of the parent zone app (similar to tapestry as most will know it) is brilliant, I feel like I am kept up to date almost hourly with that's been eaten, nappies and fun activities. The nursery itself is probably the most expensive in the area but the quality of the care I can't fault. 100% would recommend.

We were extremely worried about sending our little boy to nursery as he was very attached to us and had very little contact with anybody else. The baby room team were excellent at settling him in and in reassuring us that he was loving his time at nursery by sharing regular and detailed feedback/pictures.
We can tell that our little one has made real and meaningful connections with the team and we feel confident going to work knowing that he is being looked after by people who show real passion and care for each child.
The management team are very helpful and approachable. I really love that the Manager and Deputy appear to be really hands-on alongside the team; making a point to really know each child and family as well as being present in the rooms overseeing everything that happens.
We are very thankful to the whole team for helping our boy to settle into nursery and for all the lovely experiences they give him.

Adore HDC Dartmouth! The team are remarkable and have so much fun making each day with the children so special. It's clear just how happy and content the children all are there. Recently the team have started to create videos of their big adventures out and about in the community. It is brilliant to
witness how polite and engaging all the boys and girls are when meeting new people. HDC have an ongoing relationship with a local care home (The Fleet) and due to the frequency of their visits, you can really see the bonds being made between the young and the elderly. Learning isn't just from books HDC have a really holistic approach.


My dealings with the management team have always been really positive and certainly have no issues with getting speedy responses. Can not thank the team enough for everything they are doing for not only my nephew but the others in their service.
