My overall experience with the nursery has been very positive. The staff are kind and caring, and my child is always happy to attend. I also appreciate the app, which keeps me updated on what my child has eaten, nappy changes, and even shares pictures and videos of their activities. I do have a couple of suggestions. When contacting parents, it would feel more personal to say, "Hi, is that (child's name mom)?" rather than using the parents first names. Additionally, I'm unsure how birthdays are celebrated, as nothing has been shared. At my child's previous nursery, birthdays were a special occasion: the birthday child would sit on a decorated chair with a crown or hat while everyone sang "Happy Birthday," and the parents would receive a photo. They also gave a book as a gift for birthdays and graduations.

Really good experience as the staff is very helpful and provides support when needed. The team are really co-operative and approachable to discuss and share ideas regarding the development challenges. 5 star nursery and recommended for young children.

The teachers are great, always keep you up to date with how your child is progressing. My daughter took a while to settle in. They were patient and helpful. They also encouraged the kids to do things really well. Would definitely recommend this preschool. My daughter has come out of her shy shell. They also encourage and help you potty train your child.

Great staff team and they did great activities for the children for World Book Day and Mother's Day this month, my son enjoys being at nursery and is looked after well. Any concerns or advice is immediately notified to me via the app.

Very pleasant environment, nice calming music as soon as you enter the nursery setting. The building is very secure as the nursery is situated at the back of a shared building. The staff are very caring and communicative. Both of our children love going to nursery and they talk about their day in the nursery when they get home, they talk nicely about the staff which means that they bond well. Both of our children eat at nursery more than they would eat at home which I find great that they are being motivated by staff and the presence of other children.

Overall I am happy with this nursery because everything was perfect when I started sending my child to this place and they fulfilled all my needs regarding my situation. Thanks to everyone at this nursery.

We are very happy with my son's progress and the attention he receives.

Good facilities, well thought-through rooms. Outside play areas are great. A well-secured entrance with great off-road parking. Communication from staff is excellent with regular organisational and child updates. Staff are friendly and caring. I'm very confident in their ability to look after and educate my children. Great feedback from my children who love going. Excellent food on offer for children all day.

My daughter has/had always struggled to open up to others. After attending nursery five times she really came out of her shell. Her speech and remembering of information has been incredible. Very grateful to all the staff.

Fox Hollies is a good day nursery, it's nice I get to see what my child eats throughout the day, from time to time the teachers upload pictures of the activities they have done, and you have a great eco-garden which I know my child loves. The teachers are all very friendly and helpful and when asked about my child's performance that day, are always informative and are able to provide an update. What I would like to see more of is what educational activities they do during the day (i.e drawing, painting, numbers or even playing with toys). It would be nice if they have done a drawing that day for them to bring it home and explain to me what they have done or made. I understand the day nursery is very busy, but I think the flexibility could be improved on (I.e being able to swap days in advance or have an additional day).

Really good experience so far. My daughter has started to pick up on things and learn really fast. Getting better in socialising in such a short time. Really happy on daily feedback updates.

I am really pleased with the set-up here at Fox Hollies. My child loves coming here and is very settled. It's lovely to see her do different activities as well as receiving updates on Family app.

Since my son cheveyo has transitioned into pre school room I have noticed he has come along so well with more of his speech and counting his numbers and just his development overall I thank all the staff for supporting that :)

Very happy with the nursery. Staff very attentive and friendly. My child loves to go there. The only thing is that he has constant problems with his stomach and his poo is too loose so he spends more time at home than in the nursery and we still need to pay full price.

We placed our 1-year-old son into this nursery, it was a difficult decision to make as we the mum and dad become very optimistic about placing him into any nurseries. We explored all the local ones within the area and this one stood out a lot. It was during COVID so we were restricted to what we were allowed to see within the 4 walls of the nursery. We were greeted by the baby room manager and was introduced to the room team leader who both are very fantastic at what they do, we couldn't really see anything inside so we were reliant on making our decision with how the staff was. I can now say 6 months later that it was probably one of the best choices we made I can not emphasize enough. The staff are fantastic my son loves nursery in the time he's been there he's learnt a lot, how to walk, talk, eat by himself. His development is by far further than if he hadn't had gone to this nursery. We are so thankful to the staff who have made our son become who he is today, thank you so much.

I'm absolutely over the moon with my son's development since going to this nursery. Catering to his needs, staff are amazing. Brilliant communication, can't fault them. Would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.

The staff are extremely welcoming and welcome your children. They listen and make adjustments if you have a concern. The nursery is nice and clean. They work on the development of the child and sometimes give homework (which my child is always excited about). They help with toilet training and give tips. They update on the 'Famly' app regularly which is brilliant and peace of mind. Thank you to all staff. They could invest more in outdoor activities like climbing or swing or slide area. Also indoor they can buy new things instead of getting second-hand items. Be regular with the homework pattern.

I have sent my child to this nursery for more than one year and I am very impressed with his learning. He has learnt a lot from a young age.

My daughter just loves this place! Very kind and supportive staff in the pre-school room. Famly app is also very good and keeps us informed at all times. I can't say anything negative about this nursery really.

Everyone in the bathroom has supported me and helped settle my daughter into nursery. Always happy to listen to any concerns, but also offer advice and help, especially useful when you're a first-time mum! I have seen my daughter come on leaps and bounds since starting her development is a credit to the care and attention she receives from one staff. They are genuinely invested in the children and I couldn't be happier that my child goes here. They have also happily catered to my daughters' meat-free dietary requirements and use of reusable nappies.
