I have two children in the nursery; one in pre-school and one in the baby room. Both love their time at the nursery. The elder has learnt so much in such a short time from being able to identify Australia on a globe to writing her own name at barely 3 years old. The younger is happy, content and sleeps well at nursery (I wish he slept that well at home!). There are many different activities including drawing, tuff tray exploration and even a visit to a baby spa!

My daughter has attended Abingdon Kindergarten for nearly two years. She is always so happy going to nursery and coming home. The staff are so lovely and caring. They do so many activities which I think is amazing, and my daughter always comes home telling us about them. I highly recommend this nursery.

My children love their time at Abingdon Kindergarten. The level of care is outstanding and my daughter will even ask to go to nursery at the weekend. The staff really know the children well and are able to really tailor both the learning and emotional development specifically. In the baby room, sleep routines are observed, nappies are changed regularly and the activities are stimulating and varied. There is a consistency to ensure the babies feel comfortable and that they can communicate their needs even without the ability to speak. The preschool at the nursery is really excellent. The children are taught a whole range of information, songs, stories and skills in innovative and creative ways. There is guided learning and independent play in which pupils are encouraged to socialise widely. Both my children are at ease in the nursery giving me the confidence to leave them each morning and know they are going to be happy, well cared for and nurtured.

Amazing caring staff. Our son has learnt so much and loves the nursery. He has been attending for almost 2 years. Great activities and love themed activities for special days. Attentive to child's needs and high focus on development through play.

My son really enjoys attending Abingdon Kindergarten Ltd - Long Furlong. It has been amazing to watch him develop his skills and confidence. He comes home happy and able to tell me the new things he has learned that day. He can often be shy, so to see him go in each morning so happy and confident, knowing he is safe and cared for, fills me with reassurance.

I have taken my daughter to a different nursery before this one, but I’m so glad I moved to Abingdon Kindergarten. The staff know their children very well and the needs of each child. My daughter has come home many times telling me about her day and how she’s done various activities. The snacks and tea they provide have a very good variation and are healthy. The garden area also has a lot of different areas to explore and widens their imagination.

My son has been at the Nursery since he was 9 months old. He loves going. His key worker is amazing with him and every time I collect him he has had a brilliant day. They do lots with the children, including walking up to the local play park. The staff are so friendly and always really welcoming. The manager is fantastic and makes the nursery feel really warm and welcoming.

Our son had a wonderful time at this nursery, and now his younger sister has started there too - we were so happy with the service we wouldn't have sent her anywhere else. The manager brings sunshine wherever she goes and the teachers are lovely. The children have loads of fun, learn and are very well looked after.

The nursery is excellent at providing the care and learning needed for babies and toddlers. We sent our daughter when she was 8 months old. She has grown to be quite independent and has picked up a lot of social skills that we would not have been able to impart by ourselves. Truly amazing development and thanks a lot to the nursery for encouraging her. Would highly recommend this place.

We currently have our second child going through the nursery and have found them to be brilliant with both of your children. Our boys have loved going to the nursery and have felt supported and challenged in their learning by the staff there. My son was very well prepared for school there and had a great first year of primary as a result of his preschool experiences.
16 August 2022
We sent both our boys to Abingdon Kindergarten and they have loved it - our eldest is about to start Primary School and as we have moved away from Abingdon it makes practical sense to move our youngest, otherwise, he would have stayed. The staff are so caring and put so much effort into their activities with the children - ours regularly return home with backpacks full of craft materials and stories from the exciting things they’ve been up to, as well as namechecking the staff and other children they’ve been playing with that day. The nursery have been very accommodating with extra days of childcare during holiday periods, and are always informative on what is happening and coming up for nursery events. Thoroughly recommend.

My child has been attending Abingdon Kindergarten since she was 1. We had to choose a nursery in the middle of the covid pandemic and this one really stood out. The staff were kind and understanding whilst we were first time parents fretting about leaving our child! She is now in preschool and continues to love attending. We get updates at the end of the day via handover and a more in depth update via the app. The range of activities the children do ensures they are never bored and my word does she sleep well after a nursery day! She also enjoys the variety of snacks the nursery provides. I know she will miss the staff and her peers when she starts school.

We have a great experience with the nursery. Our 2.5 year old daughter loves the nursery. She is engaged in hearing stories, singing songs, outdoor plays, crafts and more. We receive an update every day on her progress and what has she been up to. Highly recommended nursery with a friendly environment.
16 July 2022
This is not the only nursery we have used but by far the best. The team are friendly and our little girl has loved it. Our only initial reservation was having to provide lunches - but given the superior experience this shouldn't put anyone off making this the preferred choice when looking at a nursery.

Really caring nursery and always there to help me out. My granddaughter loves it there. Really lovely staff who my granddaughter adores. Could not be happier with the service they provide. Good update emailed each day about what they have been up to.

My daughter started in the preschool room and had never previously been to a nursery so I was very worried about how she would settle but all the staff have been amazing and given her all the patience, encouragement, and support she has needed to feel secure and now she talks about them at home all the time. She has loved spending time with the ducks in the garden and this is definitely a highlight of her day. I love I get a full update of her day including pictures via the app so I can see just how much she enjoys her time at nursery. The activities she gets up to are always exciting and varied so I know she is having the best day while there. Thank you to all staff for making her feel so welcome at Abingdon Kindergarten.

We have sent all three of our children here over the last 5 years and are very happy with the care they have received and the overall standard of the nursery. I would recommend them to any parents looking for a trustworthy nursery.

We always get excellent and prompt feedback from the staff, when we pick up my daughter or through the communication app. Thanks to the patience from them, especially from her key person, my daughter adapted to nursery in a very short time, even if she only started at 9 months old. I heard that in the very beginning, to let her nap as her routine, she was held in arms for 30 mins long. The communication app is efficiently updated so that we can see her daily life and pictures. We love to read the summary by the end of each day! This is an amazing experience, especially during the lockdown. We appreciate a lot, the care they give to my daughter and we enjoy checking her development observations documented in the app. The most important thing is that my daughter although cannot speak yet, shows that she cannot wait to go to nursery every morning as she always pulls her coat and smiles when I ask if she wants to play with her key person.

A lovely nursery with such caring staff. My girls love coming here! The forest school was a highlight for them and they always talk about how much fun they have had with the staff. I would recommend anyone to send their children here.

My daughter has been going to this nursery for 2-years, and she loves it. Ultimately this is what matters! From the perspective of a parent, we haven't faced any issues and are thoroughly happy with our choice (we had a choice of 3 when we were deciding where to send her). The staff are always friendly - the nursery isn't huge, so there's a nice family feel. We love the app they use to share daily updates and pictures. There's been a recent change in management, which so far, is showing to be a really positive thing - for example, there's been a focus on revamping the interior and facilities and equipment and real energy and positivity in communications and activities the children have been doing. All in all, we would absolutely recommend the nursery.
