Overall Experience

We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful nursery for our daughter. She runs in each day, eager to see her friends and teachers and take part in all the carefully planned activities.
All the staff are so caring and nurturing, taking the time to really get to know the children on an

individual basis and their families too.
Being connected to the school has been a real bonus with the children able to benefit from the superb facilities and expertise of specialist teachers. Families are often invited in for events and we loved watching the wonderful Nativity production and Sports Day.
We couldn't ask for a better start to our daughter's early years education.

Overall Experience

Both of our children have been through Meoncross School and had wonderful experiences. The staff are lovely and take time to listen and nurture the child. They are so supportive.
Our son is always so excited to get into nursery (or school at he calls it), he enjoys learning through varied activities.

The resources are great and the outdoor equipment is fantastic. The experiences pupils are given even though they are only young are brilliant, I don't know any other nursery setting that does this.
The food is wonderful, healthy and varied.
We are very happy with everything at Meoncross and would fully recommend it.

Overall Experience

Both my children have thrived under the care of Meoncross Nursery team. Their engaging curriculum ensures children develop across all areas of early years learning, really encouraging independence from a young age.
Every member of staff has such a positive and enthusiastic approach to their work

and this is shown in how happy the children are in their care.
I highly recommend Meoncross nursery, they truly care about the variety of activities, the development and happiness of each child as well as creating a family atmosphere.

We are very impressed with how our children have thrived at Meoncross Nursery and all within such a lovely, sweet setting. From social skills and confidence to what they learn with the learning resources they use! Communication is made easy with staff if ever there are any concerns and they really work

with you to help improve concerns. Our children were and are prepared for the best start, ready for Reception.

Overall Experience

Really lovely nursery, so kind and welcoming of my child who was nervous to start. He has been treated with nothing but loving kindness and comes home every day telling me he had so much fun! There are so many opportunities to learn and develop at Meoncross, and he has advanced so much even just in

the few months he has attended. Looking forward to continuing on!

My son recently started nursery and in the beginning, he was very sad and cried a lot, but with your experience and patience. The whole experience turned into a very pleasant one and now he can't wait to come and meet you.
Thank you so much for being so kind.

Overall Experience

We had a tour of Kingscourt when we moved into the area and we loved the amazing grounds, the children that we met were all so lovely that we enrolled her even though she was only 6 months old at that time!
She started at a different nursery where she was doing ok but we thought we'd give Kingscourt

a go when she was old enough. She joined in April 2024 just before her 3rd birthday and it wasn't long before we could see that she was absolutely thriving! She wants to be more independent which we feel is making her more confident. The staff puts a lot of thought and prep into each day and every week is so interesting and fun! We love knowing what our daughter will be up to each week and having so many daily updates is just really really great. The older children are encouraged to take care of the younger ones which is so lovely to see. We are so happy to have found such an amazing school for our daughter.

Overall Experience

The dedicated staff, wonderful surroundings, and purpose-built nursery make this a very special place. The nursery children benefit from interaction with the wider school community.
The lunch is also excellent and the school has ensured they are able to cater for my son's food allergies.
The new

senior leadership has brought innovative ideas to the early years of teaching.

Overall Experience

My child has been attending Kingscourt Nursery for 6 months now and very much enjoys it there. The staff are excellent and they keep you well updated throughout the day. The teaching is of a high standard and it's good that they start core foundation subjects of phonics and maths at an early age. I

also like the fact that they offer lessons in music and Spanish. The nursery day is structured and the children get to mix with the main school years. The location is lovely with countryside views and plenty of outside space for the children to learn in. The grounds are always well maintained.
I highly recommend Kingscourt Nursery.

Overall Experience

Our experience with Kingscourt Nursery has been amazing. The staff are always so friendly, caring and helpful. The facilities are fantastic, clean and well organised.
The security measures that have been put into place to keep the children safe is really on point with key fob locked doors and gates

in the outside play area and CCTV.
We love seeing the daily updates from the nursery with details and pictures of all of the activities that have occurred during the day as well as details for lunch times and what the children have eaten etc.
Kingscourt has been the best decision we have made for our children, we absolutely love it and the children really do thrive here.

Overall Experience

Our experience at Kingscourt Nursery has been wonderful since our child joined in September. The transition into the nursery was seamless, thanks to the warm and attentive staff who made us feel welcome from day one. The teachers are incredibly nurturing and supportive, creating a positive and stimulating

environment that has allowed our child to thrive.
The nursery itself is well-organised, clean, and prioritises safety, which gives us great confidence as parents. We've noticed remarkable progress in our child's development, both socially and academically, and it's clear they feel happy and secure here.
We are truly grateful to Kingscourt Nursery for providing such a fantastic experience for our child and would highly recommend it to other families.

Overall Experience

The care my daughter has received at Kingscourt has been nothing less than exemplary. I truly believe she is looked after as well as educated by the finest staff available. She couldn't be happier and feel more at home than she does at Kingscourt. She is part of a family and is treated as such. Her

learning has exceeded all expectations and she loves to be in school, experiencing more every day. Only wish we'd found Kingscourt earlier so my other children could have experienced the same.

Meoncross is an amazing nursery with a wonderful staff. It truly does feel like a second family and my son has thrived. He loves his teachers and when dropped off we have never had any tears. In fact, we have never seen any teary children. The beach school, French, ballet, gardening, and cooking in

small groups are what sets Meoncross apart from other nurseries. We are so happy that we have decided to keep him there for reception.

Overall Experience

My child started at the nursery of Kingscourt at the beginning of the Spring 2024 academic term. Having previously struggled to settle in other settings, I was keen to ensure a smooth settling in and transition. The nurturing environment, friendly staff and ability to cater to the individual needs of

the children have been incredible and Kingscourt have been instrumental in building his confidence and security to be able to have a fantastic start to his time at nursery. The resources are varied and engaging with a lovely blend of play and learning tools. The nursery strikes the balance of fostering structure to the day - including time for play, movement, music, outdoor learning, and phonics/numeracy - as well as space for the children to spend time doing independent play. It's a delight seeing my child so happy at nursery!

Meoncross is a wonderful nursery and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. My son started when he turned 2.5 years old, moving from another nursery, and I've seen such a positive change in him. He loves his days at nursery, and never hesitates to run in at drop-off time - the daily activities, from cooking

to drama classes are brilliant and he's always so proud to show off what he's learnt or made that day. All of the staff have really got to know him, and they're amazing at supporting him (with great communication too). I really have nothing but positives to say!

Overall Experience

Both of my children have attended Meoncross Nursery and I highly recommend this to everyone I speak to. It has a calm and loving vibe which rubs off on the children who attend. The teachers care for the children in a personal and compassionate way and the addition of parents evenings allows you to discuss

your child in detail. The uniform is beautiful and helps the children feel connected to the school. The updates parents receive via the app are detailed and show the depth of learning the children receive eg in French, Ballet or cooking lessons. As a private nursery, it is more expensive than others but something that we believe is worth every penny. The children finish their day clean, well-fed, happy and loved. We couldn’t ask for more in a nursery and are so grateful to the nursery and staff for all their exemplary care and teaching. It enabled our first child to slot into mainstream school beautifully. Five star!

One of the best decisions I have made as a parent is to enrol my child into Kingscourt. The level of care is first-rate, attention to detail in lesson and activity planning is incredible, setting is fully set up for the children to thrive. Even the food is fantastic, 2/3 course lunches and superb snacks!

Thank you Kingscourt!

Overall Experience

I am thrilled to share my exceptional experience with this nursery. For me personally, the nursery's success is mainly highlighted by the fact that my daughter willingly goes there after a successful settling period. Her excellent experience extends beyond just getting through the day; she is genuinely

educated and guided. This speaks volumes about the positive and engaging environment provided by the nursery.
The educational approach is on point, offering a rich blend of activities, messy play, and stimulation. The inclusion of extra classes in ballet, dancing, and French adds a wonderful dimension. The staff's dedication and motivation to stimulate and educate children go above and beyond, creating an amazing balance between free play, educational moments, and outdoor activities. Highly recommend this exceptional nursery!
