I sent my little one to this lovely nursery. They were so attentive to my and her needs starting nursery in the toddler room. I was very impressed by those who work in the toddler room, and the awareness of infant mental health and making the transition to nursery really steadily.
The attention to
developing safe attachments within the environment is excellent, and I’m so impressed by the accessible environment too. So much that her independence and confidence has increased tenfold since starting. The regular updates, pictures about her care and learning are again excellent, and the ongoing reports of her progress both online and also in person mean we get a great run down each time she attends.
I’m really very impressed by the toddler room and how much the learning of different topics is encouraged and structured but also how freely and child-focused the day to day play is. I love the focus on the outdoors too.
I really think the staff do a fantastic job.
I would recommend it!

My son has attended this nursery for two years and has flourished because of his time there.
He is growing into a well mannered, articulate, responsible boy, and I know Montessori teachings and staff have influenced this.
The day is well structured, and I love that they help tidy up after lunchtime
and are encouraged to do so throughout the day.
Every day he is happy to go to nursery and has made lots of friends. He often doesn’t want to leave!
The activities they do are exciting and challenge my son in his learning and development.
My son especially enjoys the forest school, playing outside on the bikes, playing with the dinosaurs and the messy play. He loved roasting marshmallows on the fire and still remembers it now.
Nursery staff have worked incredibly hard to form relationships with myself and my son, and they are always more than happy to talk through concerns and parental worries
I thank the nursery for all they have done for us both, especially during the pandemic.

This is the best nursery in the area.
I have both my children in this nursery, both started at 9-months, one is 19-months now, and the other one is 3 and 1/2yrs.
I looked at pretty much every other nursery in the area, and this is the best by far! Wonderful and friendly staff and great management.
If there are problems, they address them immediately and always have an open ear. My children couldn’t be happier. Compared to their peers, they learn so much more in this nursery.
The words I’d describe the nursery; friendly, warm, individualised, Montessori values, independence supporting, outdoorsy, happy, open, colourful, encouraging, age appropriate, caring, nurturing, safe, forest school, great and nutritious food, clean.
I can’t recommend them enough!

Our 11-month-old has settled in really well, thanks to the staff being so responsive and understanding. He loves being in the baby room, and they are helping him to develop really well. We get lots of updates about our son every time we pick him up and feel well informed.

Absolutely love this place. Visited 3/4 in the area when we were first looking, and I knew it was the right place for my boy straight away.
The staff are brilliant, friendly, and I feel like they welcome my boy on a morning as much as his family would.
My boy's development is fantastic, and he
is becoming a very confident clever little boy.
Absolutely love the updates too, they put a smile on my face when I am working.

Cold and ignorant management.
Never reply to emails, do not arrange meetings about the safeguarding of my child. I have been waiting since 19th September but nothing. I had to ask for an injury to be put into the accident book.
Twice my child has said bye to the manager and twice been ignored.
I
have given notice and have informed Ofsted. I have given notice yet even when the manager was in front of me she told myself and another child's parent that 'supposed to be my day off, but you know', like it was a chore. Either be there and be happy or don't.
There are much much better places to put your most precious people, and this is not the place.
Do your research!
