My child has attended Abbot's since January 2024. I waited over a year to have my child placed and was delighted with my son's induction. The staff in Tiny Toes are fantastic. My son has adapted so well due to the care he receives on a daily basis. The grounds are beautiful and the garden perfect. My only criticism is a bigger room and private garden for 0-2 age group. I also think staff salary should be considered when you assess the level of care and learning needed for babies. The staff are a mother to 4 children for 8 hours a day. Wow! The food is just amazing. The updates constant, which I really appreciate.

Abbot's Hill Nursery is absolutely amazing. We are so happy with the quality of care that our child receives. The staff are wonderful and are always so happy to see us. We are so pleased with the facilities, outdoor space, room and the activities are superb. The room always looks so lovely and our child is always so eager to explore straight away. The nursery is safe and secure and we can't fault it. Our child's key person is so kind and caring, we feel very lucky to have her. We love receiving regular updates throughout the day. The menus are fantastic, our child eats so well at nursery. We would recommend this nursery to everyone!

The nursery provides outstanding care for our daughter. She is happy, engaged, and excited to attend. The staff provides a very high level of care and goes above and beyond to meet individual needs. The nursery setting is idyllic and the children are provided with excellent experiences. We are very thankful for all that they do.

My daughter thoroughly enjoys her time at Abbot's Nursery. She has more friends in her class and has blossomed. She speaks positively about the teachers and the activities they do. She is excited to go to nursery which is so lovely.

My daughter has grown in confidence during her time at Abbot's Hill Nursery. She looks forward to going every week and the staff have been wonderful at helping her grow and develop over the last two years.

We are delighted to have found such a wonderful environment for our 18-month-old son to be in. As a parent, it is always a nerve-wracking experience leaving your child and returning to work but the staff at Abbot's Hill Day Nursery made the transition easy and it is so reassuring knowing our son is so well looked after and cared for. He is constantly learning new things thanks to the time and effort of the staff and we love the paintings and cards he brings home too. Thank you for everything!

The staff are very friendly and patient. My child always looks forward to coming into nursery which is always a good sign.

Abbot's Hill Nursery has wonderful staff and an amazing space for children to grow. The activities are so varied, that I am blown away by the variety and creativity every day. They teach inclusivity and kindness in a way that children can understand. Chances to get outside are plenty with woodland lessons and walks around the school grounds. We are kept updated with frequent communication, parent's evenings and photos of daily activities. My child loves going in.

A very pleasing happy place to send your grandson to. The staff go above and beyond to meet every child’s needs. All members of staff there are excellent and very approachable. Will definitely recommend this nursery.

This is an outstanding nursery. Our eldest daughter started in the Tiny Toes room the week she turned 1. Initially, she found settling in difficult, having been born during lockdown, however the staff were just wonderful with her and within a couple of months we saw a huge change in her attitude towards nursery. We have been impressed, day in and day out, since she started. She now asks to go in at weekends and is absolutely thriving there, now in Footsteps, and our youngest daughter joins in a few weeks. Staff at the nursery are kind and professional and very attentive to the children. It is a joy to see the children so happy at drop off and pick up every day. The activities and facilities at the nursery are also exceptional. The catering is of a very high standard too, with home-cooked food and a wide variety of snacks and meals. It is a safe, warm and educationally stimulating environment and we would urge anyone considering the nursery to view it and see how wonderful it is.

Our son has been at Abbots Hill Nursery since he was 9 months old and he has just turned 3 now. The staff are all very helpful and supportive, putting into place special plans to assist my son with his delayed speech and dietary requirements whilst we worked out and dealt with his intolerances. My daughter attended a few years prior and we were equally happy when she attended too. The fact that they have staff who have been there since the nursery opened is of comfort to parents also. The staff genuinely care about the children and you can see this reflected in the way the kids respond to and talk about all staff members as well as when parents drop off and collect their children. The facilities are great and are always being refreshed and updated. 'Forest school' and the exploration walks are a particular favourite for our son.

Two of our daughters have been cared for in Abbots Hill Day Nursery & Pre-School since not long after they each turned 1. The care has always been truly brilliant. They have been given such kind, loving and wonderful care and have learned so much. The staff are both warm and professional and the nursery is always innovating and finding new ways to engage and stimulate the kids. I always enjoy drop off and pick up, I always feel it is such a positive, safe and lovely place to be! The outdoor space is brilliant and they are always having so much fun playing out in the summer when I come to collect. I would recommend it without hesitation.

We have been very happy with Abbots Hill Day Nursery & Pre-School. Our daughter has been very happy there since she started in January 2023. She seems to have fitted in really well and has progressed a lot in the short time she has been there. Our other daughter, who left a few years ago, was also very happy.

All of the staff at the nursery are caring compassionate and professional. The children are well looked after and the food is great. The facilities are amazing with so many toys to play with and activities to do.

We are so happy with the quality of care that has been given to our son since he started in Tiny Toes in August. His key person is fantastic and she is so happy, kind and caring. The staff in the room are always helpful and supportive. The range of activities offered is wonderful and the room always looks so inviting. We love that our son often goes on walks around the school grounds and we get to see daily updates of what he has been up to. The menus sound delicious and our son eats so well at the nursery. We can't wait to see him flourish more over the next few years. Thank you so much for all you do nursery team!

Our daughter joined Abbot’s Hill Nursery last year. She gained great independence, but she has also thrived in participating in the many opportunities that Abbot's Hill have given her. The extracurricular lessons, the outstanding experiences, and the planned activities provided make this nursery beyond amazing. My daughter loves going to the nursery and always comes home happy. The staff go above and beyond every single day!

My daughter joined Abbot's Hill nursery a few months ago after we moved to the area and comes home so happy, talking about her fun day. The staff are superb, they have got to know our daughter so quickly, their communication is great - they will call about any concerns, email response is very speedy, and they give a nice update at the end of the day. Our daughter speaks so fondly of her key worker (our extended family even know about her). The staff have picked up on development areas well, and that one on one advice and attention is impressive when they are managing many children. I cannot recommend Abbot's Hill nursery enough, the play activities are varied and the children go for walks in the impressive grounds. The picture updates during the week are so wonderful.

My son has been attending Abbots Hill Nursery since he was 9 months old. Two years on it is like a second home to him. Never did I imagine we’d have to weather a pandemic together. The management and staff at the nursery have been amazing throughout and have adapted so well. Communication throughout the pandemic has been excellent and the safety but also the emotional well-being of the children has been a priority. The pandemic aside, the nursery provides an amazing inclusive environment for children to develop and thrive.

We have been very pleased with the level of care and attention to detail our child is receiving. At the start, our daughter took some time to settle in and the staff were excellent in making her feel happy and comfortable as well as regularly updating me. Now she can’t stop talking about nursery, her friends and teachers. She is really excited to see everyone each morning! We have seen fantastic progress in all aspects educational, developmental and personal with our daughter and hope to send our son too this year!
