Overall Experience

My youngest daughter joined the nursery a few months ago, my eldest already attends and has been doing extremely well. My youngest was very shy, played alone and generally quiet and didn't say many words/sentences. Now going to the nursery she's really come on leaps and bounds in all aspects and is

almost the opposite in every way. Its lovely to see her be friends with other children her own age, be better at sharing and playing with others. She's loud and playful and her communication has improved tenfold. I can't recommend the nursery enough, they've given such wonderful care and attention to my girls.

Overall Experience

We collect our child from nursery once a week and there is always a lovely atmosphere there when we arrive. She is there for long days but seems to enjoy it. She heard no English until the age of one, but her English has now progressed very well. She has a lovely group of friends at nursery and it seems

a safe and stimulating environment.

Lovely nursery, have been taking my little girl for over two years and always been happy with the care and attention given to my child. She really enjoys going and has made several special bonds with key members of staff. The staff are also very supportive of parents and help with any issues or concerns

and provide good advice. The facilities are good with a lovely garden area.

Overall Experience

Apricot Nursery is truly a wonderful place for little ones. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that immediately puts both children and parents at ease.
The staff are friendly, caring, and professional.
One of the things that really sets Apricot Nursery

apart is their excellent communication. They provide daily updates with pictures, which is such a reassuring touch for parents. It's wonderful to see what activities the children have been enjoying throughout the day.
The nursery is well-organized, clean, and filled with stimulating resources that encourage curiosity and development.
I highly recommend Apricot Nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing, friendly, and professional childcare setting.

Overall Experience

I have had my both children at Apricot Nursery, when the big one had to go to school in September, I wanted to find a nursery for the little one close to the school but he was so attached and close to the staff members that we decided it is best for him to stay at Apricot nursery.
The staff are very

friendly and always helpful, my son loves to have cuddles from them every morning, he even pronounces their names at just 2 years old. He is bilingual now, started to talk in English and this is because of staff having many activities with him on a daily basis as we do not talk in English at home.
The management is great, greeting us with a big smile every morning, always ready to help if it is needed.
We can not thank them all enough for how our little one settled in so quickly.
Well done team at Apricot Nursery!

Overall Experience

Apricots Nursery is a fantastic setting for young children and I cannot praise the staff enough. My eldest has been attending for over a year and instantly warmed to the staff/her peers and it's a joy to see her genuinely excited to go into nursery. Her development is thriving and the variety of activities

is great. Having big sky next door is an added bonus for days they need to burn off energy and the balance of indoor/outdoor play is lovely to see. Both children attend the setting and are always well fed and cared for and the staff are very attentive, kind and nurturing. The Wise Owls staff have also been brilliant at helping through changes such as potty training. The admin staff are also extremely helpful and flexible, they are very welcoming and everyone I have met at the nursery so far are friendly and engaging and it is very apparent they all care for the children.

Overall Experience

My son with autism goes twice a week and he absolutely loves it. He struggled for a long time to get used to it and to be comfortable and even though he has tough days there still he has more better days than worse. They have made him feel welcomed and safe. They have supported me through all the hardships

and tough things as a single parent you go through. They have also helped me every step of the way with his early help and even contacted a children's charity to get me help. They are very supportive and you can message them or ring them at any time and they always answer and try to help as best they can. My son has come on so much since being there. They do not push my boy to integrate too much if he doesn't feel it and they do whatever they can to help him and get his confidence up.

Reply from Deborah Cobb, Senior Nursery Manager. at Apricot Nursery

Thank you for your kind review. It has been great to see how well he is doing. We are always here to help our families.

Overall Experience

My two children have been attending since March 2023.
My children adore their key workers and talk about them at home during play or walking into the nursery. My kids often run to nursery and are smiling and happy at pick up too. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The room staff are happy to

give detailed handovers, or if as a parent I am in a rush I know all the information is on their nursery app.
The management team are helpful and friendly. Always happy to talk to you with an open-door policy and keep parents informed of any news, updates or upcoming events on the nursery app.
The nursery recently renovated its outdoor space which my children love as I can see from the photos they provide weekly. They also provide monthly observations with a focus on the EYFS. With access to the next-door soft play centre in times of bad British weather!
My children are happy, healthy and thriving and I know it's been in part from the support from their time at nursery. Highly recommend.

Overall Experience

As an immigrant, I had many concerns about sending my child to an English nursery, especially after hearing numerous negative opinions about such facilities. However, my experience with Broadway Nursery couldn't be further from those fears. Both my eldest son (previously) and now my youngest son attend

this nursery, and I'm beyond grateful for this amazing place. The staff are exceptional, creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for children. The activities are great - focusing on sensory development, fine and gross motor skills, and spending plenty of time outside. Communications with staff are seamless, thanks to their app, which is a huge help for working parents. I wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent looking for safe and supportive development focused environment.

Overall Experience

Our 1-year-old daughter has been going to the Broadway Nursery for the last four/five months. The nursery staff takes good care of her. The staff are very generous and caring and more importantly, understand the needs of babies so well.
They really made our journey so comfortable by taking care of

our daughter. We get regular updates on how her day has been, what she ate, when she slept etc., making our work day stressfree. Different activities with other children in the nursery made our daughter explore different things at such a young age.
Thanks to the Broadway Nursery!

We have had an incredible experience so far, our daughter has settled so well with all staff members. They are warm, welcoming and have been so helpful regarding answering any questions I have had. I enjoy looking at all the pictures we get from her weekly journal and reading about all the fun things

she has enjoyed. Our daughter has come on leaps and bounds with her development with the help from the staff and the amazing activities they get up to.
Our daughter loves her meal times at nursery and always gets offered a variety of foods, especially including your healthy 5 a day!
We can't thank everyone enough for making our little girl's day fun each day.

Overall Experience

Hamilton Nursery has been an incredible support for my family, and I cannot recommend them enough. From the start, their staff has been kind, understanding, and incredibly professional. As a disabled parent, I had concerns about finding a nursery that would be inclusive and supportive of my needs, but

Hamilton Nursery exceeded all expectations. They provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment where my child thrives daily, thanks to their thoughtful activities and warm, attentive care. What truly sets Hamilton Nursery apart is the way they've supported me as a parent. They've ensured I feel empowered, welcome, and fully involved in my child's experience, making the transition to nursery life smooth for us both. Their genuine understanding and willingness to accommodate my needs have been such a relief. I couldn't ask for a more caring place to trust with my child's growth and happiness. Hamilton Nursery feels like a second home for my child and an extended family for me.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to Hilltop Nursery since she didn't settle in her previous nursery, and I couldn't be happier with the decision. The Hilltop staff made it so easy for her to settle in, and now she absolutely loves it. Some days, she doesn't even want to come back home! The team is incredibly

warm and attentive, creating a welcoming and safe environment for all the children. The activities are enriching, from creative crafts to interactive play, and they put a big emphasis on outdoor time, which is wonderful. I can confidently say she is way better off here than at her previous nursery. Hilltop has truly been a positive change for her, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a nurturing place for their little one!

My daughter joined Broadway Nursery when she turned 1 and is leaving this summer, aged 3, as we relocate across country. I feel privileged that she was able to grow under the nurture and care of all the staff at Broadway Nursery. You can feel the genuine care and compassion of everyone involved with

the nursery. We couldn't have wished for a better environment for our daughter to flourish and I would recommend Broadway to anyone as I can't think of a single fault or complaint in the two and a half years we've been going there. We will be sad to go and everyone sorely missed! Thank you for everything you've done.
