My son recently started nursery and in the beginning, he was very sad and cried a lot, but with your experience and patience. The whole experience turned into a very pleasant one and now he can't wait to come and meet you. Thank you so much for being so kind.

We had a tour of Kingscourt when we moved into the area and we loved the amazing grounds, the children that we met were all so lovely that we enrolled her even though she was only 6 months old at that time! She started at a different nursery where she was doing ok but we thought we'd give Kingscourt a go when she was old enough. She joined in April 2024 just before her 3rd birthday and it wasn't long before we could see that she was absolutely thriving! She wants to be more independent which we feel is making her more confident. The staff puts a lot of thought and prep into each day and every week is so interesting and fun! We love knowing what our daughter will be up to each week and having so many daily updates is just really really great. The older children are encouraged to take care of the younger ones which is so lovely to see. We are so happy to have found such an amazing school for our daughter.

The dedicated staff, wonderful surroundings, and purpose-built nursery make this a very special place. The nursery children benefit from interaction with the wider school community. The lunch is also excellent and the school has ensured they are able to cater for my son's food allergies. The new senior leadership has brought innovative ideas to the early years of teaching.

My child has been attending Kingscourt Nursery for 6 months now and very much enjoys it there. The staff are excellent and they keep you well updated throughout the day. The teaching is of a high standard and it's good that they start core foundation subjects of phonics and maths at an early age. I also like the fact that they offer lessons in music and Spanish. The nursery day is structured and the children get to mix with the main school years. The location is lovely with countryside views and plenty of outside space for the children to learn in. The grounds are always well maintained. I highly recommend Kingscourt Nursery.

Our experience with Kingscourt Nursery has been amazing. The staff are always so friendly, caring and helpful. The facilities are fantastic, clean and well organised. The security measures that have been put into place to keep the children safe is really on point with key fob locked doors and gates in the outside play area and CCTV. We love seeing the daily updates from the nursery with details and pictures of all of the activities that have occurred during the day as well as details for lunch times and what the children have eaten etc. Kingscourt has been the best decision we have made for our children, we absolutely love it and the children really do thrive here.

Our experience at Kingscourt Nursery has been wonderful since our child joined in September. The transition into the nursery was seamless, thanks to the warm and attentive staff who made us feel welcome from day one. The teachers are incredibly nurturing and supportive, creating a positive and stimulating environment that has allowed our child to thrive. The nursery itself is well-organised, clean, and prioritises safety, which gives us great confidence as parents. We've noticed remarkable progress in our child's development, both socially and academically, and it's clear they feel happy and secure here. We are truly grateful to Kingscourt Nursery for providing such a fantastic experience for our child and would highly recommend it to other families.

The care my daughter has received at Kingscourt has been nothing less than exemplary. I truly believe she is looked after as well as educated by the finest staff available. She couldn't be happier and feel more at home than she does at Kingscourt. She is part of a family and is treated as such. Her learning has exceeded all expectations and she loves to be in school, experiencing more every day. Only wish we'd found Kingscourt earlier so my other children could have experienced the same.

My son and daughter have both attended the nursery and my daughter currently attends. They teach the children so much and I have seen the difference it makes when they start in school. Having experience of different nurseries I can say wholeheartedly that Kingscourt Nursery is phenomenal.

My child started at the nursery of Kingscourt at the beginning of the Spring 2024 academic term. Having previously struggled to settle in other settings, I was keen to ensure a smooth settling in and transition. The nurturing environment, friendly staff and ability to cater to the individual needs of the children have been incredible and Kingscourt have been instrumental in building his confidence and security to be able to have a fantastic start to his time at nursery. The resources are varied and engaging with a lovely blend of play and learning tools. The nursery strikes the balance of fostering structure to the day - including time for play, movement, music, outdoor learning, and phonics/numeracy - as well as space for the children to spend time doing independent play. It's a delight seeing my child so happy at nursery!

One of the best decisions I have made as a parent is to enrol my child into Kingscourt. The level of care is first-rate, attention to detail in lesson and activity planning is incredible, setting is fully set up for the children to thrive. Even the food is fantastic, 2/3 course lunches and superb snacks! Thank you Kingscourt!

Words can't quite do justice to what a wonderful environment Kingscourt Nursery is. Beyond the beautiful surroundings, and amazing nursery facility itself, the staff are truly exceptional. So caring, supportive and attentive - my little one thrived and received the extra support needed with speech and language. The activities are so well thought out, with personalised goals and an exciting topic each week. It provides the perfect balance of structure with play. The focus on outdoor play and learning (within the gorgeous grounds and woodland), is a particular highlight, as is the nursery children's exposure to the older children, who act as mentors and role models to the younger pupils. I couldn't recommend Kingscourt more - it's a little piece of heaven in Hampshire!

My son joined Nursery, caterpillars just before his 3rd birthday, continued in butterflies, and he is now in reception at Kingscourt. The nursery is a magical place, the children are immersed in learning through exploring exciting topics, dinosaurs, dragons etc. The teachers are passionate, enthusiastic and loving. This is a gem of a nursery and makes the transition into school very smooth and natural.

I am so happy I made the decision to send my daughters to the nursery at Kingscourt. They were happy and thrived in the beautiful setting under the excellent care and teaching provided by the staff. The modern purpose-built nursery building perfectly complements the rest of the school facilities and the children get to make lots of use of the amazing outdoor grounds. They were absolutely prepared for school life and seamlessly transitioned into the main school where this same ethos continues with happy children who love learning. I would recommend this nursery to anyone who wishes to give their child the best start to school life.

Our son transferred from another nursery and he has been having a wonderful time. We felt he was getting bored at his previous place and it seems the higher staffing ratio is having a really good impact. The wooded grounds provide a really lovely environment and we like the focus on outdoor education. The nursery is really well-equipped, benefiting from an interactive TV/whiteboard. Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the move!

My son has been at the nursery here since September 2023 and is absolutely loving it. His confidence has grown and he has made so many lovely friends. The variety of how he is learning inside and outside (whatever the weather) is fantastic and the teaching staff are wonderful. We couldn’t be happier with our experience so far.

The school creates an exceptional learning atmosphere, combining enthusiastic educators, engaging curricula, and a supportive community. The emphasis on holistic development through various activities contributes to a well-rounded education. I highly recommend this school for its commitment to nurturing students both academically and personally.

My little boy absolutely loves nursery since starting at Kingscourt. Having attended nursery at another setting previously, the difference is tremendous with him absolutely thriving here. Incredibly friendly welcome, lots of daily updates, a clear structure to learning, plenty of time outside in a fantastic setting with gardens, woods and grounds, as well as the huge bonus that he will be able to continue on in the school until he is 11 years old.

Kingscourt is an exceptional prep school. With one child in the nursery and another in Year 4, we couldn't be happier with the enriching experiences it provides. The nursery environment is nurturing, fun, educational and inspiring. Our four-year-old enjoys participating in music lessons, Spanish classes, dough disco, science activities and so much more! They spend lots of time outside in the beautiful grounds running around and learning about nature. The one-to-one time dedicated to them ensures they progress at their own pace, mastering phonics and foundational reading and writing skills. This approach sets them up brilliantly as they transition to Year R. The dedicated teachers at Kingscourt are truly the best. Their commitment to creating a positive and engaging learning environment is evident in the genuine affection the children have for them. I can’t recommend Kingscourt enough. It's an outstanding choice that has exceeded our expectations.

This is an exceptional nursery. Our son has attended since he was 2yrs 9 months and his development over the past year has been incredible. The nursery itself is in a custom-built building that is very well-resourced and each day the activities are structured around the theme for that week, so the children are fully immersed in each project. The children also have amazing grounds to learn and play in, alongside incredibly caring and nurturing staff. I really feel that each child is an individual here as each activity is modified to each child’s stage and ability. In addition, children also have weekly lessons in outdoor learning, Spanish and music which we love and is certainly not our experience at other nursery schools. Our son will move on to Reception in September and he is already so well prepared for this next step. I would not hesitate to recommend this amazing nursery!
