I couldn't recommend this nursery enough. My daughter is preschool 2 and I never want her to leave. The staff treat my daughter as if she were their own and they genuinely care about her. My daughter's key work has gone above and beyond in helping her with her additional needs and I can't thank him enough! The other staff in the room are also amazing and I couldn't ask for anything more. The staff make this nursery such a great place for the children. The management team are fantastic very quick in responding and always there for advice or help. The staff are always inventive in games and activities they play. I really love the amount of outdoor time they get and not stuck inside all day. I love that everyone knows each child by name even if they are not in the children's room. A lovely nursery with a great family feel! Thank you for everything you do!

Both our children are thriving at Astley Nature Kindergarten! They love spending time outdoors and visiting the park. Our son's language and communication have developed so well and our daughter's confidence is growing.

This is a fantastic nursery. The service has been consistently great through the three class/groups our child has attended. The team really makes the experience. They are warm, welcoming, friendly, energetic, informative and very professional. This makes you confident that they are in good hands and their development and happiness is a priority. This is exemplified by the range of activities they do on a daily basis, with development-based feedback/updates. Inside and out, the facilities are fantastic. The place is always really well-presented. Overall, it is a great nursery that I would recommend to family and friends.

I am very very happy with the support that my child has received. All teh staff have been very supportive, especially when my child found the transition into the preschool hard. My child loves coming to nursery and we are very thankful for all of the staff who my child has had so far. They have also been very supportive with clear awareness training/equipment etc.

Lovely nursery, staff are caring and attentive. They are brilliant at keeping us up to date with changes and the development of our son. Would recommend them to anyone. I'm a very busy person and they make life so much easier, I don't need to worry about sending in nappies. They update the app throughout the day so I can see what's going on with my son (sleep, food etc). My little boy is very outdoorsy and this is perfect for him. They put him in a waterproof suit and let him explore and get fresh air. Inside they do lots of different activities every day to keep him engaged.

We are very happy with the care that other children receive at Astley Nature Kindergarten. They have always communicated well with us and we feel our children's learning is progressing well in their care, especially the facilities for forest school and outdoor learning. Both my children love being outside and they thrive in this environment. The only improvement that would help is more frequent updates about activities/learning they are taking part in as the communication app is not really used as much as they could use this - overall we are happy with the care received at Astley Nature Kindergarten.

We simply love Astley Nature Kindergarten. Our son loves the outdoors and this nursery has the most outstanding outdoor play area for miles. We looked at a few nurseries and nothing came close. Since my son started there in July last year, I have had nothing but praise for the lovely team who work there. They are amazing. My son loves going in each day and the food is lovely. He eats foods that he wouldn't like at home as the cooks are also amazing at what they do. I would recommend this to anyone who wants their child to do exciting activities, learn new things, follow a curriculum and also anyone who values the importance of outdoor play.

Fantastic nursery with excellent facilities! My little girl absolutely loves her nursery days. The staff are brilliant and have really worked with her to build her confidence and help her develop friendship groups. She has learnt so much since she started and has built a great bond with staff and other children. The staff work really hard to teach the children about a number of topics including literacy and numeracy and the nature garden is a brilliant addition where the children can learn all about the outside environment as well. The meals are healthy and varied. Would definitely recommend Astley Nature Kindergarten.

Astley Nature Kindergarten is a wonderful and supportive nursery environment with an emphasis on forest school and outdoor, imaginative play. Our daughter loves going here and has attended since she was 2. She is now 4. Her social skills and relationships have come on massively since attending nursery. She is now also starting to read and I credit a lot of this development to the work her key workers at the nursery have put in, making the most of her strengths and helping her improve in her weaker areas. We will be sending our youngest when I return from maternity leave if there is space.

Astley Nature Kindergarten felt like a home from home when we viewed it for our first baby. It was warm and welcoming with the smell of home-cooked food radiating throughout. We enrolled our eldest without hesitation and now our daughter attends too. The staff are happy and always greet our children with such love and affection it makes leaving them to head off to work a much easier. The facilities are great with the outdoor forest school a real selling point to us as children are encouraged to spend time outdoors in the fresh air. We would highly recommend!

My little boy has been attending Astley Nature Kindergarten since he was 18 months old, he is now almost 4! We chose to send him here after reading so many positive reviews, and I feel it was one of the best decisions we made. The outdoor space is amazing, and the kids spend so much time outside. The staff have been so supportive throughout. They are friendly, genuine, and caring, and have given me invaluable advice and support over the past couple of years. A really great nursery!

My little boy is doing so well at nursery and he gets so much stimulation. I love that he gets a lot of outdoor playtime as the grounds are so big, he is very active and there are lots for him to do. He has been at the nursery since he was 1 year old and is now in Preschool 1 room and has great relationships with the staff. I would recommend this nursery.
