This is by far the best nursery around! The staff are all so compassionate and caring & nothing is too much trouble at all, and we've had our fair share of individual requests for our little man. He has been in nursery since he was 4.5 months old and OSN Innsworth has been amazing at helping him thrive and get the very best out of everyday. We have yet to be told he's had a rubbish day at nursery. 1000% recommend!

We are extremely happy with Innsworth OSN. The manager has turned the nursery around with a particular member of staff by her side. We are so thankful for the work they do. Our daughter is so happy in the Pre School room. We are kept informed throughout the week of what she has been up to (in addition to the daily pick up conversations) on Parentzone. Great food choices, the amenities are clean & really well presented. I would 100% recommend this nursery.

Since my daughter moved to the Pre-school room she has flourished in skills and confidence. Her key worker and all of the staff in the room are brilliant. Communication is not great and could be improved. Dates for events before the months it relates too would be helpful. We had two newsletters sent 4 days into a month and it was sent on the day for parents to attend an event but we did not realise as it was sent at 1pm. The recent change in fees that will come into play from April is very concerning for us and we are actively searching to find childcare elsewhere or seriously considering reduce her hours.

Lovely nursery. Great quality of care towards all children. Lovely staff always friendly. My son is happy to come into nursery and always enjoys his stay - never wants to leave.

Our son has been at The Old Station Nursery Innsworth for nearly a year now. The team in the baby room have been great at creating a safe place for him to play, explore and develop. His key worker are wonderful and he has been able to create a strong bond with his key worker and the team. He is always excited to go to nursery and even talks about his key worker at home. It was always so important to us that he was happy in nursery setting and he is very happy here. The nursery are open to feedback and we feel they have responded well to any feedback we have given.

A few concerns at the beginning of the year surrounding staffing following a high turnover of staff members. However this seems to have eased throughout the year and has had a noticeable positive impact on how settled our child feels in the setting. Staff feel happier and communication with parents has improved. In comparison to most other nurseries, the way the funded hours have been rolled out seems unfair on parents whose children only attend one day a week. We're not allowed to utilise the full hours we're entitled to, and are therefore paying (a lot) more than many other nurseries would charge.

My son has been going to The Old Station Nursery for roughly 18 months and has really enjoyed it so much. He has learnt a substantial amount and seems to come home with new dances, songs and experiences every time. The staff at The Old Station Nursery have been brilliant with him. They really care about his well-being and development. His safety, whether he enjoys it and whether he is learning is at the top of our priority list and all of these boxes are ticked at The Old Station Nursery.

I have been extremely impressed with this nursery and how much my children have developed in such a short time, they have increased their confidence and ability to do different activities. They are learning to interact with others very well and seem very happy. The staff are very friendly and our helpful everytime. I really like the regular reports I get from them on what my children have eaten and what they are doing during the day.

My son started this nursery at 9 months old. He is now a thriving, bubbly, very chatty 2-year-old who loves going to nursery. The environment for the children is great for them to learn and explore. The staff have all been great and never had any problems. I would recommend this nursery to anyone and everyone. My second child will also be starting at this nursery in May 2025.

Today was my daughter's last day at The Old Station Nursery from the day we visited for a show around she instantly felt at home. The staff are nothing but amazing and supportive. As a single mum, it has been difficult at times but the staff have always had time to help me where they could. I don't care about Ofsted inspections my daughter has come home happy every day and has grown into a confident funny and cheeky little girl. Huge thank you to everyone who has been involved in her journey so far.

I wouldn't recommend! The headquarters see your children as profit and are very greedy. The billing team billed me nearly 2 weeks late into the first month, despite chasing, which created instant arrears as they want payment in advance. To keep me paying one month in advance, the billing team gave me three days to pay half of December's bill, then the other half 2 weeks later, then January's bill 1 week after that (that's 3 months of fees in just over a month incl. what was already paid!). They even had the nerve to add a late fee when it was them who were late! I explained they were being unreasonable but they remained uncooperative and failed to acknowledge they are responsible for the issues. I had to pull my child out as they left me no other option and they couldn't care less about her. They'll come back with a crowd pleasing comment to this, to make themselves look good, but this isn't a company that cares about children (and I'm an ex nursery teacher so I know how it all works!).

A fantastic nursery full of staff who genuinely care for your little one and you as a family. The team make us feel as though our little boy is a real priority to them and has been instrumental in ensuring he has not just remained settled but thrived, during a difficult time for our family. In particular, the baby room leader, has shown such care and warmth to our son and we can’t thank her enough for the time she has spent looking after him. The management team have also been fantastic and have bent over backwards to accommodate us and to ensure our little boy is happy and settled throughout our difficult time.

Old Station Nursery has provided excellent care for my children for the last 2 years. Flexible and approachable staff who really care. The children are well engaged and happy to go in each day. Highly recommend this setting to other families.

Great nursery, great staff, couldn’t ask for anything more. They go above and beyond to ensure all children are well looked after and most importantly happy.

The Old Station Nursery Innsworth, have been a blessing to us! The confidence given to my boy is more than I could find words for! We love the entire team! He loves every day he spends there, and we are always welcomed in with smiling faces!

I have returned to work following maternity leave. My son started at around 8 months, the team are so lovely and made its very easy to return to work without worrying. My son is very happy in the setting, I do not have any other issues at drop off not wanting to be handed over. I always get a in depth handover at pick up of all the things he has got up to in the day. The setting is so lovely with a big open space for the garden, they have a range of animals which is lovely to see and the children to be involved with. I would highly recommended this nursery.

Very good nursery with friendly staff and my son enjoys being there and always has something good to say about what he has done. My son comes back on the odd occasion and said the food wasn't that nice, so didn't have much lunch. But on the whole very pleased.

Can’t praise The Old Station Nursery enough for what they have done for my son, my son has come on leaps and bounds with the help from the nursery. My son enjoys going and loves all the activities they do and all the animals that come in to visit. A lovely and friendly nursery, all the staff are brilliant and helpful.
