Although the highest priced nursery in the area (that rises every year) it is a lovely nursery with a great team who are passionate and provide great care for my child. The team have always been happy to hear my feedback, they hold events for parents and children which we really appreciate too.

I have been with A's Pre-School & Day Nursery since November 2024. My foster child attends four days a week and I have to commend the staff team for their patience, consistency, compassion and care during this time.
The nursery has worked flexibly with both my foster son and me to ensure his transition
into full-time sessions has run smoothly.
The staff and managers have been easy to speak with and are very approachable at any time. The nursery takes a person-centred approach and also focuses on the child's positives including working on areas that require improvement.

A very good kindergarten from an educational point of view, the staff are attentive to details and the child is always happy to return to kindergarten.
We recommend it with all confidence for the good and precise development of any child.

I currently have two daughters attending this nursery and couldn't fault their care or service! Staff have been brilliant throughout the years my girls have been attending. One aspect that I like the most is that the nursery has a group chat for our children, receiving daily pictures is great!

Reply from Charlotte, Director at A's Pre-School & Day Nursery

Thank you for the lovely review. It has been wonderful watching the girls grow and develop over the years.

Have never been so glad to have chosen A's for both of my girls. They are both thriving and are genuinely excited to come in every day. I can see why! The staff are so warm and friendly and genuinely care for each child. I feel like we have gotten to know them personally too. I could not ask for more
from the staff members and the nursery in general. The kids go on lots of outings and have loads of events on to make it a real community feeling.

Reply from Charlotte, Director at A's Pre-School & Day Nursery

Thank you for the wonderful review. I know both children love the weekly outings to the library, care home and pets at home. The one thing we are most proud of bringing the community together.

Staff are always kind and very attentive to the children and their needs. They keep the parents aware of everything relating to the child and they give a lot of information. The nursery holds many events to give parents the opportunity to get involved and to interact with other parents. We can see the
difference this makes to everyone around. My child loves it at nursery, they have grown in confidence and are very happy.

Both of my boys attended A's Nursery and I couldn't have asked for a better start to their early years. The staff are truly amazing-warm, caring and dedicated to each child's growth and well-being. In particular, two of the ladies have been exceptional, always going the extra mile to make the children
feel comfortable and engaged in their learning.
The nursery provides a nurturing and stimulating environment, where children are encouraged to explore, learn and develop at their own pace. The activities are well-planned, creative and tailored to support both social and academic development. I've always felt reassured knowing my boys were in such capable and loving hands. A huge thank you to the entire team at A's Nursery for making my children's early years so special. I highly recommend them to any parent looking for a safe, supportive and enriching place for their little ones!

What a fantastic nursery this is. Staff are very well educated and caring towards the children. Our child absolutely loves going here. All activities are well thought out and planned. Our little one has developed so much in such little time since joining. Communication from the nursery is fantastic.
We get pictures sent throughout the day and are able to message the nursery as and when we need to ask about how our daughter is getting on. Very attentive staff. Best choice we made! Huge thanks to the team. We are looking forward to sending our next little one here too!

My daughter has been going to A’s nursery for around 2 years and I am very pleased with her emotional and learning progress. She is always happy to go to nursery and very excited to tell me about her day. My daughter is an early reader and they have catered for this by doing phonics and providing higher-level
reading books. A’s nursery is also willing to take ideas/opinions to improve their setting. The staff members are so attentive toward my child and the well-being area really helps with her emotions. During circle time, children are free to showcase their talents and my daughter loves this. A’s nursery provides a range of activities that stimulates my child. They send voice notes and pictures every day, which makes me feel so comfortable and happy that she’s enjoying nursery and new things. I’m very happy that my daughter goes to A’s nursery and would definitely recommend it as it’s such a warm, welcoming, and caring place.

My son absolutely loves coming to A’s Pre-School & Day Nursery, he has come along leaps and bounds and A’s Pre-School & Day Nursery has done an amazing job at getting him ready for the big leap up to reception. My son always comes home and surprises me with the new things he has learned. The staff have
built an amazing bond with me and my son and I am dreading the day we have to leave. We love A’s Pre-School & Day Nursery.

Very caring and well organised team. My daughter is having a really good time and can’t wait to go in again. I want to thank the management and the girls for such a great attitude, attentiveness, and professionalism. Love the daily updates and the occasional pictures of my toddler. It gives a peace

After researching many nurseries, A's Pre-School & Day Nursery is the one that ticked all our priority boxes. In fact, it was love at first sight with A’s and our son was the first registration. He has had the most wonderful experience of nursery and that is all down to the dedication and hard work
of all the staff at A’s. From the nursery owner and manager to all the practitioners, each and everyone has been fantastic! We cannot thank them enough from the bottom of our hearts!
If you’re looking to enrol your child, look no further and secure your place asap. A’s is truly an outstanding nursery!

Moving my child into A's Nursery was the best thing I ever did. I took my son out of his previous nursery at 2 years old as there was not any communication between the parents and nursery. I never received updates of what he was up to while at nursery, so when I moved him to A's he settled in immediately
and I felt very comfortable about what he was doing during the day. I'd get daily sheets or I'd get his pictures or arts and craft to take home. I could also communicate with the nursery on WhatsApp, email and phone. They would also send me photos of what he was doing. All the small things add up to a great experience. I really feel the workers cared a lot for my son and he really enjoyed going there.

A’s nursery is an outstanding establishment. As a mother, I have always felt confident and secure knowing my child was under the care of such professional, kind and welcoming members of staff.
From a child’s perspective, my son wakes up every morning wanting to go to nursery because he truly enjoys
his time there.
The nursery staff will regularly update parents on the activities the children get up to on a daily basis and send along pictures too which is always nice to receive.

Where can I start? A’s Nursery I think is the best decision we made to put my child in. My child has settled in very well and loves the nursery. This is all because of the wonderful staff and care that is given to the children. The girls in the room are great. I am very grateful to all the staff in
the setting. The daily feedback sheets are great. It is always nice to see what he has been doing during the day. There is good communication between home and nursery, both written and verbal feedback being very useful. Communication is regular, immediate, effective, and professional; activities are varied and have really promoted my son's speech and understanding. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent/carer.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.016)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.016) out of 10 for A's Pre-School & Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.878 for A's Pre-School & Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (74 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 82 Ratings = 4.878

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.138 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for A's Pre-School & Day Nursery is based on 7 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.7

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 80 number of registered child places is 16. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.438

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
