My youngest daughter has been at VPK since 1 year old following in from my eldest who left 2 years ago. Both girls have always loved VPK with the team always working to make things better. Structured fun day but clear focus on my daughter being able to express and develop in her own way. Her key workers provide regular verbal updates/electronic record and are effective in supporting her toward goals. She loves them and other team showing the caring nature in VPK. Appropriate ratio of staffing to children. Always friendly 'hello' Any concerns or accidents are raised directly and quickly with the parents and any questions we have either in the room or by manager are answered quickly. Management/office is friendly and welcoming day to day. Facilities are clean and well maintained. Rooms divided by age with equipment suitable for my daughter (or other development level). Access to outdoors regularly both in gardens and on trips as weather allows. Good quality of food prepared on site.

Everyone extremely friendly and they are outstanding with my child. Lots of toys, trips to the park when it is sunny and food that caters for him being vegetarian and which he eats without fail. He loves going and his development is clear.

Great staff. Very attentive to my wee girl. Staff in the bluebell room all always very positive. I have noticed such a difference in my wee girl. She is now happy going to the staff and has formed a great bond with them

The team at Victoria Park Kindergarten are fantastic. I genuinely believe that every person there is invested and involved in my daughter's wellbeing and development. I was nervous for her to start nursery as she has a fairly complicated health history but I am 100% confident in the care that she receives every day.

Victoria Park Kindergarten staff are all amazing from management to teachers! My daughter has been here since before a year old and is now 3 and a half and she has always loved going there. They are all so supportive during periods of transition, and their activities are so varied and fun for the kids. I am so grateful to have had such a great experience of my child having had such a lovely time at nursery so far and know she is well looked after whilst I'm at work.

Our son walks in really happy to go to nursery every day! We enrolled him one year ago and the room staff has been great in helping him feel comfortable and he was able to settle in pretty well. We always receive a warm welcome at the reception and the nursery staff are amazing. The management has recently changed and we are super happy with the nursery manager. She has implemented improvements and she is always keen on offering the best support. I really enjoy the updates they provide on private social media where I can see what my son was able to do and how he spends his days. We are thankful for having this nursery close to our home and we are looking forward to enrolling our other wee baby soon! We definitely recommend it.

Since my son started in April 2024, he has been more outgoing and has improved his social skills. The nursery staff are so helpful, polite and caring. I enjoy the daily social media posts and learning journal updates on the development of my son. I trust Victoria park 100% to ensure the safety and wellbeing of my baby. Thanks a lot.

Victoria Park Kindergarten is an outstanding place of learning which we have been very happy to send our two children to. Staff and management are familiar and friendly with children across all stages, not just in their own room, which in our experience has made the transitions from room to room much easier for our little girl as she grows up through the nursery. There is a uniquely warm and friendly atmosphere in Victoria Park Kindergarten. Every person who enters is greeted by name which is something I can't say for any other nursery I've been to, and this goes some way to demonstrating just how much effort the staff put into getting to know the families. Any concerns we have had in the 2 years our children have attended the nursery have been resolved quickly and sensitively by the wonderful headteacher, who makes a huge effort to have a special bond with each and every child. I would highly recommend Victoria Park Kindergarten to any prospective parents.

My son started here last year and has been thriving. He is so happy going to this nursery and the communication is great with newsletters, emails, and the learning journal. I can see what my child has been learning and his next goals and achievements will be. I can add photos from home to share with his peers and this helped when my son was learning to walk and talk. The nursery does so much with the kids indoors and out, it's great to see them all at the park or out on walks to book bugs. As a working parent, it's difficult to manage to have the kids experience everything and that's what I love about Victoria Park Kindergarten they have such a vast array of experiences for my children it's wonderful to see in their photos and hear about it in the daily diary and even throughout the day sometimes a wee sneak peek on the social media page for my child's room let me see what they are doing and allows me to share the experience. This is a great nursery and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

My 1.5 year old loves coming here, literally giggles with excitement when she sees the front door in the mornings. Her learning would not be where it is if she hadn't been coming here for the last year. Always surprises us every couple of weeks with something new she's learned that I haven't taught her at home. This week it was noticing her doing hand actions to wheels on the bus when it came on tv during Cocomelon. Staff are all lovely and friendly and my daughter is more than happy in the mornings to see them all.

Our second child is at Victoria Park Kindergarten now and so we have had 4 years experience with them. They have created the most caring of communities, many of the staff looking after the youngest looked after the eldest as well which says a lot for their turn over of staff. They are so flexible and nothing is ever an obstacle for them to accommodate the needs of the kids.

I have an 18-month-old at the nursery and my 5-year-old did 4 years in this nursery. The staff have been incredible with both children. The first one joined during COVID and the staff were warm and friendly with the children while sticking to all safety/health requirements. Our experience has also been equally good with our second who has enjoyed his first 6 months there. He has strong connections with the staff and he has lots of fun activities during the day. My only request would be for the children to spend more time outside (summer and winter).

I love this nursery. The staff is so nice and takes good care of the children. The activities, learning games, dancing, and other activities keep the children engaged. Everyone welcomes children with a big smile that energises the whole mood. I recommend this nursery to every parent.

Both my children have been at Victoria Park Kindergarten. My son will leave this year. An excellent nursery which we really feel part of the family of. All staff know who my son is and ask about daily life. They are all interested in what makes him happy. Staff go above and beyond to make every day interesting. Support for parents is there when you need it too.

I'm so grateful for the incredible support my child has received at Victoria Park Kindergarten. The staff's dedication to understanding and accommodating my child's unique needs has been truly amazing and definitely makes me feel more settled in leaving him. My child is thriving and making amazing progress. Victoria Park Kindergarten has created a safe and stimulating environment where my child feels comfortable exploring and learning. I highly recommend Victoria Park Kindergarten to any parent seeking a nurturing and inclusive setting for their child.

Victoria Park Kindergarten is an amazing nursery. The staff are all excellent and the environment is lovely. I feel completely at ease leaving my son for the day. I know he has a great time, is totally safe, gets healthy and nutritious meals and has lots of outdoor play. Thank you all.

We love this nursery. We love that we get to see what our little one is up to through the private social media group and the learning journals. We know that our little one is well looked after and her development is being nurtured. I would highly recommend this nursery. The facilities and the staff are amazing.

Our daughter absolutely loves coming here every week. You are always greeted with a warm welcome at reception and the nursery staff are beyond amazing. I was worried before returning to work that she wouldn't settle, however, she gets so excited when we pull up in the car. She has learnt so much since joining and it's lovely to see her room workers get excited when she hits new milestones. Thank you for making it a lovely place to come.
