Can't speak highly enough of the experience we have had with Oakliegh house nursery. The staff are incredible and so caring, it's like a home away from home for the children. They go above and beyond to make sure your child is safe and cared for. They take the extra time to help with any individual
needs my child has had, he's come on leeps with his confidence and education . I wish all children could experience time in Oakleigh nursery.

As a parent who wanted their child to attend an independent school I feel so lucky we have Oakleigh House School Nursery at the heart of Swansea. Close to grandparents for pick up but also they offer bus services. I was worried about such a commitment but Oakleigh House the head teacher and Admin made
the transition really smooth and have been great to us. I was worried about so much but the school sorts everything out from snacks/dinner and small toilets for potty training. Because of their small toilets potty training went really smooth for us. After her day at school our daughter has so much new conversations and has this confidence about her...we really look forward to seeing her grow at Oakleigh.

Our daughter has attended Oakleigh House School Nursery since she was 2 and a half years old (she is now 4). We have had the best experience imaginable. The Nursery Class Teacher and team are incredible at their jobs. The teachers genuinely care about every child and their passion for their roles is
evident. They are always smiling, the classes are fun, and my daughter loves going to school. She misses school during holidays and often talks about her teachers at home. Our daughter is thriving, she is so well prepared for reception already. Nursery Class Teacher is very skilled at making the learning fun, which is what they need at this young age. I also really like that outdoor learning is encouraged whenever possible. I would recommend this nursery to anyone, it is a joy to see our daughter enjoying her experience so much. Special thanks to the amazing team for always going above and beyond.

Oakleigh House School truly values each child, with teachers who are dedicated to supporting their individual needs and fostering their growth. They work closely with parents, offering open communication and collaborating on personalized plans to ensure every child's success. My daughter in year 1 receives
the extra support she needs, while my son in preschool enjoys a positive, caring environment with great teachers and friends.

I cannot recommend Oakleigh House Nursery enough! The teachers here are exceptional, caring, dedicated, and highly skilled at engaging young children. They take the time to understand each child's individual needs and personality, creating a warm and nurturing environment where kids feel safe and loved.
The communication with parents is fantastic; they keep us informed with regular updates and photos and are always approachable for any questions or concerns.
Our little boy is so happy there and it's so reassuring that he's being so well cared for when he's not with us. It gives us enormous peace of mind. We could not be happier!

I am very happy to see improvement in my little sister. The school is doing really well and with the support of dedicated class teachers my sister is doing great in all fields. She is happy now going to school. I am very thankful to the school authorities. Very happy with the school system and with
the cooperative attitude of the teachers for making my sister more confident to participate in all sorts of activities. Thank you for your hard work in supporting my sister as she develops. I must say that you are really doing a great job as a past pupil myself. You give attention to each child and make sure that each child in your class is able to learn and have fun doing it. Absolutely impeccable establishment in every sense of the word.

The teachers are exceptional. My son had never attended childcare or nursery before, so he was upset to be leaving us initially, but after one term (his first) at Oakleigh House School Nursery, he is loving every minute. The teachers are excellent at calming and comforting the children when they are
upset and have formed a lovely bond with him already.
My son is learning so much already, coming home with artwork and developing his language so quickly.
I have really appreciated how much communication we receive daily, and the updates on the app of each activity. The experience at the nursery couldn't be going any better.

Our son was anxious with a fear of separation, yet the nursery team quickly came up with solutions and were so welcoming and kind that within a couple of weeks he was running into his classroom, forming attachments with his teachers and thoroughly enjoying his time. It is a very good school with great
communication and a caring atmosphere.

My son is in preschool and has loved every day at Oakleigh in both early-year classes. The teachers and TAs are so attentive and know him very well. I’ve really observed an increase in his command of numbers and letters recently, and love hearing him talk about the more extra-curricular classes he enjoys
so much such as ballet and outdoor learning. They even had cycling lessons recently. The facilities are excellent too, such as the interactive whiteboards and new outdoor play equipment. I also really appreciate the journal of his learning formed via online and app platforms. I can’t recommend Oakleigh enough.

The staff at the preschool treat all their children with a personal individual approach.
The communication between staff and myself has been excellent and is assuring that they know my child well.
There is a very homely environment which the children love.
The classroom is always very colourful,
with a lot of the children’s work displayed.
My child loves outdoor activities - especially exploring the outdoor nature - such wonderful opportunities for the class.
There is always a member of staff at the school entrance when children arrive, which makes the school feel safe, and the preschool area has secure gates.
The preschool play area is well-equipped for a great play experience.
The school meals are of good quality and made on the premises - and the menus are made available for us to know what’s on the menu!
My child goes in smiling and comes out smiling, which is a measure that she is very happy in preschool.
