Overall Experience

The nursery is outstanding. My daughter loves going and has made such great improvement in her development, her language skills, and has enjoyed all the outdoor activities. The nursery staff are informative and helpful, and keeps me aware of the different things my daughter is doing at the nursery.

I'm always excited to receive the pictures and emails they send weekly.

Overall Experience

Our son spent his pre-school year at Chiltern Hills and it has been brilliant for him. He has grown in confidence and has developed so much socially and academically, and is now ready to start school. The staff is what sets this nursery apart. Most have been there for many years, and all of them care

a great deal about the children and spend a lot of time working with them to develop their interests and skills. It is a very special place and I would recommend it unreservedly.

Reply from Virginia Roden, Owner at Chiltern Hills Montessori Nursery

Thank you for your review. Our staff certainly are the secret to our success. Their knowledge, professionalism and tireless work ethic ensure that the happiness and learning of each unique child is maximised.

Overall Experience

This is an amazing nursery that has been perfect for our son. We were looking to move him from a different nursery for his preschool year so visited lots and almost gave up then we came across Chiltern Hills and knew instantly it was the one. It is a 15-minute drive from home and so worth it. The staff

are all incredible, most of them have been there for years and years and care very deeply about the children. They do such a range of activities as well as a gentle introduction to phonics etc. It is all well-planned and purposeful which differs greatly from our experience elsewhere. Our son has developed so much thanks to this nursery. It seems very rare to find a high-quality preschool that does 8 AM - 6 PM all year round but this is it!

Reply from Virginia Roden, Owner at Chiltern Hills Montessori Nursery

Thank you very much for your kind words. Partnership with parents is such an important aspect of supporting children and we appreciate the close working together to develop a unique, personalised curriculum pathway for each child that helps them reach their potential. Our 2024 Outstanding Ofsted report verifies this.

Overall Experience

The nursery has been such a great experience for our son, the staff have been so friendly and love to make sure the children have lots to do - even when it is raining.
With lots of outings to the park, seeing goats to exploring outdoors, there have been lots of great memories made.
It's lovely that

the nursery organise regular trips so that parents and guardians can meet and share some experiences together.

Reply from Virginia Roden, Owner at Chiltern Hills Montessori Nursery

Thank you for your review. We are delighted that our ever-evolving series of evening and weekend events for our children and their families to meet and share time together are appreciated.

My daughter has thrived in this Montessori nursery. She has become super independent in many tasks. Her speech is just way above the expectancy for a child her age and is generally very happy.
Staff are responsible, caring, and attuned to a child's needs.

Reply from Virginia Roden, Owner at Chiltern Hills Montessori Nursery

Thank you for your review. We also are thrilled to see so many of the children who attend our nursery soar to wonderful heights of development with fabulous independence and abilities to problem solve - skills that they will hopefully have for life.

My child first started at the POD and has transitioned to TDS. I can not thank the team enough for the ongoing care they provide to my daughter. She loves all the staff and huge shout out to the POD room manager as she goes above and beyond for the kids. The TDS team are also very polite, friendly and

attentive. I can’t recommend this nursery enough and am so glad that someone recommended it to me! As this is not my closest nursery to home. But worth the travel!

Thank you very much for your review.

Overall Experience

Our little man has been going to Chilterns Montessori Nursery since he was 10 months old. For a parent, leaving your child in nursery can be daunting (especially that small) but the staff always made us feel very comfortable and we've asked all sorts of questions and they're always been answered. Our

boy has allergies and all of the staff has been very helpful in navigating his eating and making him his special meals. There was one episode where he had a bite of something that contained dairy by accident and the key worker called us to tell us directly and this is the kind of relationship you can expect. The staff there has been so lovely and they know what our son likes to do/play. We receive regular updates on the app and photos of what they've been up to during the day. Our son is breastfed and we were worried about him sleeping somewhere new but the staff is very gentle with sleep.
Overall, we're really happy with our choice and will highly recommend the nursery.

Reply from Virginia Roden, Owner at Chiltern Hills Montessori Nursery (Moor Lane)

Thank you very much for your kind words in this review. We aim that as best we can we make our nursery feel 'home from home'. This is made more possible by being a small setting where we can get to know the likes, desires and preferences of each child and family, and where partnership with parents is key to helping your child grow and feel strong and happy.

Overall Experience

I was dreading sending our first child to nursery and filled with guilt. They made the whole process relaxing and managed my son’s transition really well. Have complete confidence in them. The nursery is a really cosy, relaxed environment. It’s more like leaving him with a good friend. He gets to go

out in the garden most days and his insatiable appetite is well catered for. So pleased we made the choice to go with them.

Reply from Virginia Roden, Owner at Chiltern Hills Montessori Nursery

Thank you for your review. Tapping into the unique character of each child and ensuring our nursery adapts to meets those needs in terms of their emotional, physical and intellectual development is our aim. We are thrilled to read feedback to let us know that it works!
