Kings Castle Montessori Nursery School

from Nicola B (Mother of Child) published on 18 March 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our 4-year-old attends Kings Castle, and we couldn't be happier with the exceptional care and support provided. The leadership and management are outstanding, always listening and offering invaluable advice. It's clear that the team cares deeply for every child, nurturing their development in a warm,
welcoming environment. Our child looks forward to each day, excited to share their experiences and creative activities. The balance of structured activities and play, along with the Montessori approach, makes learning both fun and educational. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed and supported. We appreciate the events hosted for parents, which help us stay connected to the nursery. Kings Castle is a place where children thrive, and we highly recommend it to any parent seeking a nurturing, high-quality daycare. Thank you to everyone at Kings Castle for making our child's experience so special!

Kings Castle Montessori Nursery School

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

We were searching for a place where our daughter would learn, grow, and feel cherished. Kings Castle has been that exceptional place for us over the years, and I can't praise it enough!


From our first contact, the communication with all staff has been outstanding. Whether through emails, the app,

phone calls, or meetings, their professionalism and warmth are evident. Each interaction reassures us that our daughter is in excellent hands. The management team are especially responsive, addressing our questions with clarity and a genuine desire to help. This open communication has made us feel like valued members of the Kings Castle community.


Our daughter genuinely loves attending Kings Castle. Hearing her say, "I love going to nursery!" is heartwarming and reassuring for us. Each day is filled with discovery, and the Montessori method has boosted her confidence and independence. The attentive and encouraging teachers foster a love for learning that will benefit her throughout life.

My daughter started in the toddler room at 18 months she's now 22 months. The staff have been amazing at settling her in. They do so many enriching and fun activities. You feel they really enjoy working with the children. They give us weekly individual updates on my daughter's development and on group
activities. Our daughter's language and independence has really improved. She loves going to nursery so much that she just runs in and doesn't even say goodbye to us!

A wonderful nursery - we're sad to leave!
Our son, joined this nursery when he was just one year old, attending two days a week, and it has been an absolutely wonderful experience. The staff are incredibly kind, compassionate, and nurturing - not just to the children but to the parents as well.
From
the very beginning, we felt welcomed and supported. The team genuinely cares for each child, providing a warm, loving environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive. They take the time to understand each child's needs, offering reassurance and guidance every step of the way. Seeing how happy and confident Nate became in their care has meant the world to us.
Sadly, due to a house move, we have to say goodbye, but we will always be grateful for the love, patience, and dedication the team has shown. If you're looking for a nursery that truly prioritises the well-being and development of children, I couldn't recommend this one highly enough. Thank you for everything!

My son has recently left Kings Castle after two years, we were very sad to say goodbye! He had a wonderful time there and the staff always went above and beyond to ensure the best possible learning and experience. They were accommodating and flexible when we needed ad hoc sessions and created a very
supportive environment while also being very adaptable to his individual needs and abilities. Kings Lodge (the associated forest school) is also amazing and my son absolutely loved his days there. They have prepared him extremely well for school where he is now thriving. We will always look back on his time at Kings Castle with great fondness and gratitude. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Our daughter is just finishing at King's Castle to head off to school, having been there since 10 months old. She is thriving, school-ready, confident and happy.
The care shown for her in the baby room was outstanding, and you could tell the team really cared about what they do, nothing was too big
to ask and it made going back to work easier.
In the toddler and preschool rooms, the staff were also incredible and she skips in without looking back every day. The opportunities they get to practice real life skills is brilliant, and her independence has grown and grown.
My son also attended the setting a few years ago, and I plan to send my baby too in the Autumn - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Kings Castle Lodge

My daughter spends a day at the King's Castle Lodge each week, alongside two other days at the main nursery.
The day at the lodge is such a great extra opportunity for her, they spend lots of time in nature and practicing physical skills. It's in a great location and feels like a forest school almost
as they get to go out on walks, learn about nature and wildlife etc. She loves attending the Lodge, the team there are wonderful and she has such happy days!

My child has loved Lodge since it opened. The team there really teach children how to look after our planet Earth. The tree climbs, nature walks and exploring outdoors have been a big favourite for her. She will definitely miss the Lodge when going to school in September. Thank you all.

My son has attended Kings Castle since he was 9 months old and The Lodge since he was 2.5. He has grown so much whilst attending and his listening, communication and other skills have developed tons which I feel has been a direct impact from being at nursery. Couldn't recommend this nursery enough.
All the staff have been very friendly and considerate to my son's needs especially one member of staff in particular from The Lodge and another particular member of staff!

I can't recommend Kings Castle enough. Both my children have attended from the ages of 1 to school leavers. I have always been confident that my children are happy, safe and creatively stimulated. It is a wonderful welcoming setting and all staff members are absolutely fantastic with the children. Warm

Kings Castle is an amazing nursery that I can't fault in any way! My little girl went there about 5 years ago and now my little boy has finished his journey there too! I've always trusted everyone at Kings that my babies are well looked after because they have such a wonderful and friendly team! There
is nothing better than picking your child up and seeing them so happy and excited about the day they've had! I will always recommend this nursery and I'm so grateful for everything they've done!

Really happy with my child's time spent at Kings Castle Lodge. Focus is on nature and learning, being outdoors, there are activities within the garden area, as well as nature, walks once/ twice a day to the surroundings. Lots of learning about insects, birds, trees, flowers etc. I believe there are
herbs/ strawberries etc that have been planted that the children are involved with. Staff are very approachable, caring and involved in their roles, and provide updates in person at pickup as well as updates through the day on the app - photos/ posts. Very happy, and thoroughly recommend it. Healthy snacks are provided that the children are involved with preparing.
