Day Nursery Owned by Acorn Early Years in Bedfordshire

children's current interests and are beautifully set out. Creativity and sparking curiosity is at the heart of everything they do, and anything the children make or create is completely independent, boosting their self esteem. My child is always so proud to show us what she has been up to.
Parents are also brought along for all the adventures through lots of daily photos on the app. This is so wonderful to be able to see during the day, as well as being a tool to help create conversations around their day at nursery. Parents are also encouraged to share their happy milestones from home too, as well as being invited in to take part in events within the nursery.

staff are great at making it an adventure, being outside in nature and participating in different activities. We couldn't be happier with our choice in the nursery, the kind, caring nature of the staff have helped us all with the transition into nursery. We can't thank Acorns Sharnbrook day nursery enough for all they have done and continue to do!

for the children to do, they have great outdoor space which is full of lots of things for the children to do. The food is very healthy and nutritious even my fussy little boy enjoys the meals and majority of the time eats everything. The nursery setting is located in a lovely place very safe and secure. They have an app in which they do daily updates of what the children are getting up to, what they have eaten etc. Every parents wish is to know their child is in safe hands and being well taken care of and I don't have to think twice about this. Thank you so much to all the staff at Acorn Day Nursery for taking care of my little boy on a daily basis your all doing an amazing job.

and he loves all the activities and the food.

our hours and made sure our timetable suited my daughter's progress above all. She is now absolutely thriving, no tears and cannot wait to go to nursery and have fun. 5-star experience, fantastic team!

any questions and I love the atmosphere there. They are able to get stuck in, mucky, explore, dance, exercise and have quiet time too. It's a fab place and my eldest went there before as well.

are great to see what he's been up to.
Highly recommend to any parent, especially those with an active child and wanting to be outdoors as much as they can.

food is nutritious and sometimes they get the children to help prepare some of the snacks and meals. Our daughter's social and physical development has skyrocketed and we love the observations that staff make on the app, categorising which areas of development we're focused on. The communication with the nursery through the app is amazing, we love seeing what they're up to! I'd highly recommend Acorn Day Nursery in Sharnbrook to anyone thinking about enrolling their child. I can't fault the staff and their friendly, attentive attitude towards the children and parents.

children now I have a lot to thank the staff at Acorn for. When I collect her I can see how much fun she has had, few occasions she hasn't wanted to leave. The staff have been fantastic with her and are continually helping her to develop. The setting and activities they do with the children are great, my daughter loves the outdoors and Acorn at Sharnbrook Forest School is brilliant!

our girls have really loved the Forest School sessions and I have loved seeing their journey through the app. We especially love the way they do so much cooking, often making their own snacks, and making their own playdoh daily. We really don’t have a bad word to say about Acorn at all. Thank you for all that you do for our girls!

they do and the staff are fantastic with him, I could not recommend this nursery enough!

they get up to. Especially the forest school/ outside which is always her favourite!
Always recommend this nursery to friends and family!

the outside space and the variety of activities that are put out for the children. The staff are always friendly and engaging, and we always love receiving updates about our daughter's day!

nursery back then due to location, and I 100% believe that Acorn is a much better setting - this child has settled much quicker, and some days, he doesn't seem to want to come home. He is learning quickly and growing up fast, becoming a very independent boy.

love the daily updates on the app seeing the care given, pictures and memories.
They both have such a good bond with their key person and regular messages/updates.
Highly recommend this setting to other parents.
Thank you, Acorn Nursery.

daughter thoroughly enjoys her time at nursery.
Staff are knowledgeable, caring, supportive, friendly and fun. I feel comfortable asking for advice on a wide range of topics and supported in decision-making.
I’m always impressed with the wide range of activities the children partake in. Activities are creatively organised with a clear focus on education, enjoyment and there is also more often than not a link to environmental awareness.
We are kept up to date efficiently throughout the day on our daughter’s movements. We are also kept in the loop about nursery and organisation objectives and feel that our thoughts and opinions are valued and respected.

ties to the community (regular visits to the local care home and village) add extra variety and substance to their activities.
Our second child suffered separation anxiety when starting nursery and took a long time to settle but the staff and her key workers in particular were simply wonderful. Their nurturing approach really helped her to feel more comfortable there, so much so that her recent transition to the Squirrels room went incredibly smoothly. She comes home full of chatter about the fun they’ve had which is a delight to hear! The regular videos and photos posted on the app are brilliant to receive whilst at work.
I cannot recommend Acorns Sharnbrook highly enough.

children and they spend lots of time outside. The nursery has a lovely garden/outdoor area and the children regularly attend a woodland experience on site which was just one of the things that initially attracted us to the nursery.
The staff were extremely accommodating with settling-in sessions and were child-led throughout working with us as parents to ensure that our child had the best possible start. Communication is brilliant throughout the day and at the start/end of each session and nothing is ever too much trouble.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough. It has a lovely atmosphere and the setting has really benefited my child.

room has been incredible for our youngest, we weren’t sure how she would be going to nursery but the staff made the transition so easy for her. They were also the ones who picked up on her allergy when no one else did and catered for her so well, I’m so grateful for them caring for her like they do.
I can’t recommend the nursery or the people who work here enough. They do great things with the kids that I could never imagine doing, definitely easing that mum guilt a little bit!
