Overall Experience

Such an amazing nursery. The staff give 110% if not more :)
My child's well being is always important to them. They know my child so well. They pay attention to her likes and dislikes.
My child doesn't like to be away from me and the only place she will leave me is to go to nursery. To me this shows

how caring the staff are.
A massive shout out to the three ladies for always making sure she has an amazing day!

Reply from Charlotte, Parent Relations at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Fenny Stratford

Overall Experience

My two little girls have just joined Ashbourne Day Nursery in Fenny Stratford which was a big change for all of us. Due to personal circumstances, I needed to get the girls into a nursery asap and the staff were so accommodating and got it sorted for us. The girls are still settling but all the ladies

are fantastic and make me feel super comfortable dropping them off. A special shout out to one lady for dealing with my clingy precious girl! All the staff members have been great and so easy to talk to. Thanks for making the process as comfortable as it can be :) and for dealing with my tears!

Reply from Charlotte, Parent Relations at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Fenny Stratford

Overall Experience

My experience with Ashbourne has been nothing but nice. My son has grown so attached to his teachers and the kids there. He is comfortable and likes going to school. He has quickly gotten adapted to the place and I owe it to the team especially his toddler class teachers to make it so smooth for him.

He really loves it there and because of that we are very happy. I am at peace knowing that he is safe and well cared for. The nursery curriculum is in such a way that children learn through play and true Montessori style which had certainly made him more independent and creative. Overall extremely happy and satisfied. Special thanks to his room teachers who I am truly thankful for . The management team are lovely too and all this keeps standards quite high

Overall Experience

I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough! From the moment you walk in, you can see how much the staff genuinely care for the children-they treat them like their own, creating a warm, nurturing, and safe environment. Every member of the team is outstanding, always going above and beyond to ensure

each child feels valued, supported, and happy.

The learning opportunities here are fantastic. The staff are incredibly skilled at engaging the children in fun, educational activities that help them grow in confidence and ability. It's amazing to see how much progress they make while having such a great time!

The food is another highlight-thanks to the brilliant chef, the meals are nutritious, delicious, and well-balanced, ensuring the children are well-fed and energized throughout the day.

If you're looking for a nursery that provides exceptional care, a fantastic learning experience, and a true home-from-home atmosphere, this is the place to be!

Overall Experience

I have had one granddaughter at the nursery that went off to school in 2024 and now have another two that have joined, so have experienced all the rooms within the nursery. The nursery staff are continuously developing the setting everyday, the front of the nursery looks fabulous. The staffing team

always greet us with a snails when we arrive and make sure we have a detailed account of the children's day. The team are always ready to help when needed and answer any questions when asked.

We highly recommend Ashbourne Oxley Park to anyone looking for a nursery that goes the extra mile

The manager is very friendly and approachable, she made a really effort to introduce herself, its also nice that she

Overall Experience

Management at this nursery is incredibly unprofessional and a major disappointment.
When I raised concerns with a senior manager, she repeatedly spoke over me, seemingly to avoid hearing what I was saying. It became so frustrating that we had to report the incident to Ofsted so they could review the

call. She would go completely silent when I paused, only to immediately talk over me the moment I started speaking again, almost as if it were a game. Her behaviour was immature, like that of a young teenager than a professional responsible for managing a childcare facility.
This kind of dismissive and childish approach is deeply concerning, especially when dealing with parents who have serious concerns. We have been left with unanswered questions and feel completely disregarded. As a result, we have made the difficult decision to remove our child from this nursery and its chain altogether.
The management's attitude can only be described as "hear no, see no", which is unacceptable.

Reply from Charlotte, Parent Relations at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Fenny Stratford

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry your experience with our nursery didn't meet your expectations. Ensuring families feel heard and supported is a priority, and we regret you didn't feel this was the case. Our management team is committed to professionalism and respect in all interactions. While we understand concerns can be difficult to discuss, it's never our intention to be dismissive. We take all feedback seriously and reflect on how we can improve communication and support. We're pleased you found our caregiving team attentive and caring. They work hard to create a nurturing environment, and we're proud of their dedication. We regret you felt the need to remove your child and are sorry we couldn't provide the experience you hoped for. If you'd like to discuss further, please email enquiries@ashbournedaynurseries.com. Wishing you and your family the best for the future.

Overall Experience

The nursery was great but a lot of staff left, largely giving their reasons as poor management support. Ofsted recently reviewed and gave the nursery a 'required improvement' rating. Ofsted warned the nursery management that no improvements were made. The management aren't present and safe ratios aren't

maintained. Avoid Ashbourne. Such a shame that a previously great facility and staff have been let down by such an unreputable organisation.

Reply from Charlotte, Parent Relations Team at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Princes Risborough

Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your concerns. We're genuinely sorry to hear that your experience at Ashbourne has not met the high standards we strive for. The recent Ofsted review has highlighted areas needing immediate improvement, and we are committed to addressing these issues immediately to ensure a safe and nurturing environment for every child in our care. Your experience and insights are invaluable to us as we work to restore the level of quality and support our families deserve.

It is an amazing place for kids to learn play and have a good time. My two boys have been going there since very little( one is now at school already another still enjoying his time in Ashbourne). The staff is very friendly and helpful with everything. It's not easy to leave your little one in someone

else's care but I know they are safe and happy there. Can highly recommend this place!

Overall Experience

My daughter has just finished her time at Ashbourne Day Nurseries Fenny Stratford to go into reception year at first school. And I can honestly say that the amazing journey she's had at Ashbourne has completely prepared her for the next step in her education. Ashbourne was my daughter's nursery provider

from 7 months old, and they have cared for, taught, nutured, and helped her grow. The staff are fantastic, and always make the effort to make more personal relationships with the parents. The learning is set out very clearly, and there are updates about the children's activities and what they eaten for lunch etc, made several times each day. A safe environment, with safe spaces. The 3 and a half years my daughter spent at Asbourne Fenny Stratford have been remarkable, and I can't thank the staff enough. Highly recommended to all parents looking for early years care.

Reply from Charlotte, Parent Relations Team at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Fenny Stratford

Thank you so much for your beautiful words and for allowing us to be part of your daughter's journey from such a young age. It's been an absolute privilege to watch her grow, learn, and thrive over the past three and a half years and we're thrilled to know she feels ready for this exciting next step. Our team is dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing space where children feel both cared for and encouraged to explore, so your kind words mean the world to us. We also value those special relationships with families, and it's wonderful to hear this made a difference for you.
