My daughter has attended Heads of Ayr Nursery for 18 months now (and my son previously attended for 3 years) and during that time I have seen the nursery grow and develop and become a vital and special part of my children's lives as well as my own. The staff are second to none, and always go above and beyond for the children, and provide them with lots of great opportunities and interesting learning experiences throughout their day. From visits from the police, fire brigade, sports coaches and library bus, to raising and hatching butterflies, creating exciting mud slides, hunting escaped dinosaurs and building obstacle courses, the childrens' days are packed with fun and adventure. Every staff member knows my daughter well and takes the time to talk to her and show an interest in her thoughts, feelings and experiences. These relationships don't end when the children move on, my son is still made to feel 'part of the family' when he visits with his sister, despite being in school now.

Our daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her experience at Heads of Ayr Nursery and continues to every day that she is there. The facilities are better than any nursery we had visited previously and the experience that the kids get is second to none. The amount of time and freedom the kids get to experience outside truly makes the difference to my child's wellbeing. The staff take great care of her and really put in the effort getting to know her and us as a family. Any questions or concerns we have had have been addressed in a positive and professional manner and left us feeling confident and comfortable with the abilities of the nursery staff. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds with her learning and social skills that is reported back to us in the learning journals app daily and she's on track to be set up for school and beyond. An all round brilliant place for the kids!

My second child is now attending Heads of Ayr Nursery and the experience he is being offered is second to none. The staff know my child extremely well and take time to engage with him and his special interests. All members of staff are welcoming, nurturing and work as a team to foster the lovely positive ethos which is evident from the moment you step inside. The outside space is wonderful and utilised so well for outdoor learning. There is no other Nursery like this around and I am so grateful my children have had the opportunity to flourish here.

Heads of Ayr offers my little one an outdoor experience like no other I have found. He loves the animals coming up to the fence or watching them from the tower. He lives for the outdoors which the Staff at Heads of Ayr have been able to nurture and grow while he has grown. He has been with them since he was 2. The Staff are amazing and have developed and evolved their own skills to help support my son and others in the nursery setting. Always looking for introducing new learning opportunities to the children in their care. Our time at Heads of Ayr is soon due to finish as he starts school but I will be FOREVER grateful for the opportunities, support and experiences that the team involved at Heads of Ayr Nursery have given to my son and family.

Where to start with Heads of Ayr Nursery. I feel very lucky to have our son going to Heads Of Ayr, The nursery itself is world class, the surroundings and environment are incredible and contribute to a wonderful and safe learning environment but it is the team who make this nursery what it is, they are terrific with our son and genuinely care for him. His progression in the time has been remarkable and he grown bucketloads in knowledge, learning and confidence. He can articulate his emotions and is very happy to do so with the team around him. My wife and I have a great relationship with everyone, a very honest and open relationship with the team who communicate highs, lows and everything in between with us both. We couldn't think of a better place to be and we really see Heads of Ayr as an extension of our support network. Outstanding!

Heads of Ayr is an outstanding nursery. From the wonderful attitude of the staff, the top rate communication but without fuss, to the fantastic encouragement and support our daughter is given. The extensive outdoor space at the nursery tops it off! We'll forever be grateful for the time our daughter has spent at Head of Ayr.

Heads of Ayr has just been brilliant for my daughter's development and well being, she gets plenty of fresh air and has made lots of friends. The staff are wonderful and they've really bonded well with the children. There was some staff churn last year however thankfully it seems to have settled down now.

Heads of Ayr have been fantastic for our son, he adores all the team there, facilities are perfect and he loves to come home to tell us all about the activities he has been enjoying. Highly recommend and we wouldn't want our son in anyone else's care

My wee girl absolutely loves her friends, teachers and all the staff at Heads of Ayr nursery. She was quite shy and nervous with other grown ups at first and over the last year has completely come out of her shell. She really trusts her teachers and feels safe there - and always has fun stories to share on the way home. Couldn't be happier that we send her here.

Heads of Ayr is a fantastic nursery and I am so pleased that our daughter has been able to go here. She has been attending the nursery for 18 months and her progression has been brilliant. It is one of the best things we have done for her! She has bonded with the staff in both the Sunshine and Rainbow room. All of the staff in the nursery are worth their weight in gold, every single person genuinely cares and you can feel the positive ethos as soon as you walk in the door. I have always felt reassured and safe leaving our daughter in their care. The large outdoor space is outstanding and has so much for the children to explore. It is such a unique feature for a nursery in this area and appears to be regularly developed and extended. The staff are always planning new learning experiences which are clearly led by the children's interests. All staff engage regularly with parents, daily through the app and pick up, and through special events. Couldn't be happier with Heads of Ayr!

My daughter has been attending heads of Ayr nursery since the age of 2. As many parents with kids the same age lockdown had a huge impact for us and my daughter hadn't been around any one really apart from myself. The nursery staff from the girls in the classroom to the girls in the office and of course the fabulous nursery chef, they have all made her feel so welcome. I felt very nervous about her being with other people but that was quickly put to rest when I realised how lovely everyone is. They are so friendly, so nurturing and so encouraging. My daughter has really came out of her shell since starting nursery, she has became this kind, bubbly, confident wee girl. She has always been very clever and loves arts and crafts and the nursery support her so much. She has came on leaps and bounds since starting. She starts school this August and the ladies in the rainbow room have been helping her for the transition. My daughter now wants to work at the nursery when she's older.

Heads of Ayr is more than a nursery, it's like an extension to our family! From our very first visit all of the staff made our little girl feel right at home. I immediately felt comfortable, knowing that she was receiving the best possible care. The wee one's get such great experiences, the grinch came to visit at Christmas, so much outdoor play, piper at burns day and lots of lovely animals for them to meet.

My twin daughters have been attending Heads of Ayr Nursery since Nov 2022. I have always been amazed by the level of care, patience, quality of education, and variety of experiences available to children. I do feel however that is only this year I have fully realised how much ahead this facility actually is. Management makes the functioning of this facility seamless and they seem to take children's wellbeing as the highest priority at all times. Children receive adequate care and attention, children's educational pathway is tailored to individuals needs and learning speed (I definitely see differences between my children, and I see how staff are always recognising their unique pace and talents). Children's menu is wide and varied and I am so pleased to see that nursery does not allow unhealthy foods brought from outside of nursery. Visits from mobile library, police, dental nurses, athletics instructor, fire services and our own Santa grotto, pumpkin trail are just to name a few!

Our little girls has only been at nursery for the last 6 weeks but has settled in well. The staff have went above and beyond to make her feel welcome and always communicate well with parents. Regular emails and access to the learning journal makes the transitions so much easier. We feel so at ease knowing how well cared for she is. Also she has so much fun doing lots of fun activities everyday! Thank you so much to the fabulous Team heads of Ayr for all the hard work you do everyday!

My daughter loves Heads of Ayr nursery and feels happy there, the staff have been so nurturing making her feel valued and safe. There's are lots of different activities set up each day for the children to get involve with and a huge outdoor space to explore. The nursery keeps you updated on their learning experiences so you're not in the dark about what they are up to all day. My daughter asked me last week if she could go on her day off which is the opposite reaction she had to her old nursery. I feel so calm about leaving her and confident going to work knowing that she's happy and in safe hands. From the moment you walk in the door there is a warm, friendly and relaxed atmosphere. The staff staff are welcoming, attentive and engaging . The facilities and play space are amazing. It's clear that all the children feel confident. I highly recommend Heads of Ayr nursery to anyone wanting to give their child the best opportunity to thrive and learn.

The nursery and the staff is such a nurturing, caring place where my child has grown in confidence and enjoys her time so much and has gained amazing relationships with the staff. The staff all go above and beyond and deserve recognition. My child is very comfortable at the nursery and has learned a lot from the staff and she speaks so fondly of everyone. There communication is always great and I can always rely on the staff to put me at ease and answer any of my questions. They have made a great impact already on my child and I wouldn't want my child to go to any other nursery as I know she is well cared for and nurtured here, thank you to all staff. The outside space and activities they have for the children is amazing and unlike anywhere else, my child loves being outside and they are always well prepared for the weather.

Our experience with heads of Ayr is month on month a joy and the encouragement and support our son gets on a weekly basis is amazing. They contain support his needs and requirements and challenge him within his capabilities.

We have found the nursery environment to be amazing, particularly the outdoor space which is really unique and gives lots of opportunities to explore in the outdoors in many creative ways. The staff are lovely and provide a very nurturing environment for our child, they are always friendly and engaging. Our child has loved attending the nursery over the past 2.5 years and we are very pleased with her progress.
