Review of Acorns Duffryn from A T (Mother of Child) published on 19 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son attended Acorns Duffryn full time from 10 months old until he was 3½ years old, and we could not have asked for a better experience.
The staff created such a warm, caring and supportive environment. They played a huge part in helping him become the kind, caring and helpful child he is today, encouraging confidence, friendships and independence.
We were especially grateful for the excellent support around his individual needs, including helping with his inhaler and carefully managing allergy information, which always gave us peace of mind.

The range of activities was fantastic, and he especially loved the activity days where parents and grandparents could visit and join in. Leaving was emotional as the nursery became such an important part of his early years. We would highly recommend Acorns Duffryn to any family.

Review of Acorns Duffryn from C H (Mother of Child) published on 5 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We could not be happier with our daughter's transition to Acorns Nursery. She started at just 10 months old, and from the very beginning all of the staff were incredibly supportive and reassuring. They took the time to follow the routines we had established at home and supported every new transition with great care and attention.
One of the biggest selling points for us was the outdoor area. Our daughter loves being outside, exploring and learning through play, so it has been wonderful to see her thrive in that environment. We also really appreciate that the nursery follows a structured curriculum and provides purposeful learning opportunities throughout the day.
The food menu is fantastic, with a great variety offered across breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. It is reassuring to know she is being exposed to such a wide range of nutritious foods.

Any concerns we had along the way, whether around sleep, separation anxiety, or settling in, were always met with support and understanding

Thank you so much for such a detailed and positive review. It means so much to the staff.

Review of Acorns ONS from J P (Mother of Child) published on 20 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter absolutely loves Acorns ONS Nursery! She walks in every day with a big smile on her face, excited for the day ahead. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff - they are always warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. It's wonderful to see the bond she has developed with her key workers, and I always feel confident that she is well cared for while I'm away from her. The children take part in a wide range of fun and educational activities throughout the day, and my daughter is always fully entertained. She also really enjoys the food and looks forward to mealtimes, where she gets to socialise with the other children in the nursery.

Acorns ONS is a truly fantastic nursery, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a caring, engaging, and nurturing environment for their little one.

The Acorns Duffryn team have been incredible in helping my child settle into nursery. Their communication and standards of care are of such a high quality that they put me at ease as a parent.

Review of Acorns ONS from Hywel M (Father of Child) published on 9 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Acorns ONS have given our son a fantastic start and he is extremely happy there. The care and attention given to him has been exceptional and it shows in both his development and how happy he is there.

The nursery is extremely well run and we have complete confidence in their systems and the care that they give.

The staff are nothing short of magnificent and they clearly care very much for the children they look after. They constantly go above and beyond and they are always extremely thorough with their handovers.

I can't speak highly enough about the quality of the nursery and I am very happy that we have trusted them with the care of our son. And so is he!!

Overall Experience
Our daughter has been at the nursery for more than three years now, and has always enjoyed her time. Her carers have always been great to deal with and have put every effort into her development.

We have been so impressed that we have recently enrolled our son at the nursery in the hope that with the nursery's support, he will develop as well as our daughter has.

Acorns Nursery is a supportive, kind, dedicated staff group. They keep my child engaged and happy. My son has never had any issues that weren't immediately addressed by approach with parents. I would 100% recommend it!! Management is especially excellent and know each child in and out.

The food menu is diverse, balanced and very creative.

Both of my children have loved attending Acorns, the care they receive from the wonderful staff is individualised and second to none. The nursery itself is always so clean and the room are all so welcoming. They have really created a home from home environment.

Review of Acorns Duffryn from J D (Mother of Child) published on 4 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Acorns Dyffryn is such a wonderful nursery. We had visited a few different nurseries before viewing Acorns, and we knew it was the right one for us as soon as we walked in.
Our little girl had a hard time leaving us initially but the team at Acorns allowed us to do as many settling in sessions as we needed, to ensure our daughter had the best start to nursery life.
Each team member knows our daughter's name, greets us warmly every day and are always so positive and cheerful.

I've already recommended Acorns to friends, as I can't fault it.

Review of Acorns ONS from L O (Father of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
An absolutely incredible nursery! I've been able to have great flexibility at the nursery and they have allowed me to get to see my children during the week when they are in nursery which has been massive for myself and the children. The team can't be anymore accommodating!
The staff are amazing, they can't do enough to help me or the children, the activities they do, the support they get and their attention to detail are above and beyond what I could have expected.
The nursery is always clean, tidy and kept in great condition. Meal time is always fun to the children and they eat really well.

I can't thank the team enough for their ongoing support and help!

Review of Acorns Duffryn from R M (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We are so grateful to all the lovely ladies in Acorns Duffryn for all the care and support over the past few years. Jackson has made some lovely friends, grown in confidence, independence, and curiosity, and has loved his time here. The staff have always been approachable and caring, and it's clear how much they value each child. We feel Jackson is leaving well-prepared and happy as he starts Welsh nursery school. He will miss you all dearly. Thank you for everything, Becky and Steve

Reply from Kelly Jones, Nursery Manager at Acorns Duffryn
