Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Chorleywood from James M (Father of Child) published on 31 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We love the old Mac nursery and wonderful team!! Both of our daughters attend and absolutely love it. Our eldest has been there for four years, and loved every day which is so reassuring to us given how important childcare is (especially in early development years). Each of the staff has been so impressionable and positive role models for our girls over the years. We appreciate how long and hard they work to look after our children day in and day out. Our daughter even pretends to be the nursery teacher at home most evenings with her toys..! Each of the staff have been so amazing in supporting their growth and teaching them new things every day. We're so impressed by how much they learn and bring home. Thanks to you all for doing such a remarkable job each and every day - we cannot thank you enough. It's a special place because the staff make it so! It has such a great reputation amongst the local community :)

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Latimer from Jonathan P (Father of Child) published on 31 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has just finished his time at Old Macdonald's Latimer. Part of me is sad that his time here has now ended, and part of me is excited for him as he starts his next chapter in life. I couldn't have asked for a better nursery for him. He's loved the teachers, the soft play area, the pet guinea pigs, the ducklings hatching, and he made lovely friends there. The nursery is in a beautiful setting, communication is excellent, and the nativity play and leavers graduation is super cute! My wife and I are confident that he is as ready as he can be for school in September. If you are considering Old Macs Latimer for your children, look no further.

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Chorleywood from Cheryl M (Mother of Child) published on 31 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started at Old Mac's 2 years ago when we moved to the area and started as one of the youngest in Upper Preschool.
The staff were fantastic in settling him into a new environment and he quickly adapted. Watching him develop and blossom over the last two years has been amazing and I cannot thank all the staff who have supported him and helped him become ready for school. The relationships and bonds that he has built with all the staff is lovely and shows the care and attention that they provide each day he attends.
The nursery are great at communicating changes, updates and progress on our children often and happy to listen to any concerns which we have. They have a lovely routine and lots of play outdoors (including the park and woods). The stay and plays are also a lovely way to see the kids in the nursery environment. The food is varied and both children enjoy the whole menu

I'd recommend this nursery and am thrilled that my daughter will be attending for a few more years

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Chorleywood from Keesha M (Mother of Child) published on 31 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Old McDonald's Nursery Chorleywood was the best decision we could have ever made for our son. Cairo joined Old Mac's when he was 10 months old and what an amazing journey he has had to say the least. All of the staff including the management team have been exceptional throughout the years. The girls are so attentive and have worked so hard with developing our child to being the best version of himself. I love how the staff will work with you on whatever steps you're trying to make with your child e.g potty training and dealing with different emotions. The attention to detail in everything they do honestly has blown me away, from Father's Day and Mother's Day gifts to the Pre school graduation. The efforts that are put in daily are on another level. We feel so sad that this era is coming to an end, as our boy has had the best time at Chorleywood. We can't thank you enough for everything you have done, we will miss you all. Cairo will miss his delicious meals from Super Chef Chris.

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Chorleywood from Joshua T (Father of Child) published on 24 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We have nothing but praise for this nursery, and the staff. Truly wonderful people running the nursery, and we've always felt the children have been treated with so much care. We've seen our child grow so much in the 6 months he's been there, and he's always come home in such a happy mood and had fun stories to share on all the activities being done.
The staff are a true asset to Old Macs, and our family with truly miss them. With special thanks Sujita, Catherine, Kenya

With grateful thanks.

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Latimer from Bijal P (Mother of Child) published on 23 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both of my children have attended this nursery, my eldest in the past and my youngest, who has been there since he was one year old. I couldn't be happier with the care they have received.
The staff are excellent, consistently kind, supportive, and attentive. I have always felt reassured knowing my children are being so well looked after. There are certain members of staff who have gone above and beyond for my boys, for that I will always be truly grateful. In particular, I would like to thank Crissie, Raquel, Lily, Lisa, and Armani for the exceptional care they have given my children.
The management team are also brilliant, very well organised, approachable, and understanding, which makes such a difference as a parent.I would also like to thank Bea, Chelcie, and Shannon for all their support and help over the years.

Overall, this nursery has provided both of my children with a safe, nurturing, and happy environment in which to learn and grow. I would highly recommend it to any parent.

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Chorleywood from Amisha R (Mother of Child) published on 22 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter is leaving Old Macs next month to start Reception after being at the nursery since she was just 15 months old, and we cannot thank the team enough for everything they have done for her.
From day one, every member of staff has been caring, supportive, and dedicated. They have always kept us updated, reassured us, and helped our daughter grow into a happy, confident little girl. She has loved every minute of her time here and walks in every morning smiling and excited to see everyone.
The graduation was such a special celebration and a perfect way to mark the end of her journey.

Although we are so sad to be saying goodbye, we are delighted that our son will be starting in September. Thank you to everyone for the love, care, and support you have shown our family. We could not recommend Old Mac's in Chorleywood more highly.

Our son is just finishing up at pre-school at Old Macdonalds in Bovingdon, and I honestly don't think we could have found a better setting for him. Every step of the way from the baby room to school transitioning the nursery has been wonderful. The staff are all amazing, the children lovely and the outside space is fantastic. I couldn't it recommend it more highly!

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Anouska's from R M (Mother of Child) published on 8 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have 2 children that attend the lodge, my little girl is 3 and my boy is 2. They were both very timid before joining; they have grown in confidence, skills and learnt so much.. my girl asks to go to school now and runs in happily with her friends calling her name!
I would recommend this nursery to anyone, Emma, Majenna & Sara have been amazing, they are so accommodating and they know the kids so well, their habits, likes / dislikes.
My children even do role play and pretend to be them at home!

We will really miss this nursery when the kids go to the new school, and I am very thankful for making this transition the best it could have been. I completely trust them to look after my babies, and they have given them a happy and positive start to their education.

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Anouska's from Thomas N (Father of Child) published on 8 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This nursery is in a league of its own & incomparable to others. They only hire staff who are warm, caring & who love their jobs & the children & are passionate about what they do. They go the extra mile to create activities such as walks & picnics in the woods & hotel grounds, visits from piglets, Buddy the Elf and even from an ice cream van when it was hot. The communication is outstanding. I receive photos most days & a thorough handover - the staff always smiling & genuinely affectionate in their descriptions of what my son has been up to. The management are fantastic in their organisation & communication & equally involved with the children. It is a bright, safe & happy place. They teach manners, independence & the beginnings of reading / writing fantastically. Even though we no longer work nearby & it is a 30 min drive away from us, we still decided to send our 2nd child here, having seen how wonderful it was with our older child. I cannot praise it highly enough.

We've been very happy with this nursery. The staff are caring, attentive, and have created a safe, welcoming environment where our daughter has really flourished. She looks forward to going each day, and it's been lovely to see her confidence, social skills, and development grow.

We would highly recommend this nursery to any family looking for a nurturing, supportive, and stimulating place for their child.

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Anouska's from Tiffany S (Mother of Child) published on 29 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My eldest son started Anouskas in 2021 and stayed through until pre school then my youngest son started September 2025 and I can't rave about the nursery enough, all the staff are SO incredible and the care and support they've shown my children and our family over the years has been unbelievable. They are all an amazing team and even if your child isn't in direct contact with someone, they all individually make the effort to know your child and make you feel as comfortable as possible. The effort and time that is put into the learning, activities and events is outstanding and we are always so blown away by the updates we get. I am always so reassured by the level of care both my boys have always received and can see how every member of the team love their job! Since my eldest has started school, I can see how big affect the work Old Macs did with him has helped him thrive! Thank you endlessly!

Review of Old MacDonald's Day Nursery Leverstock Green from Rachel M (Mother of Child) published on 25 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with Old Mac's. Our little girl absolutely loves attending and has hardly ever cried at drop-off/pick up, which speaks volumes about how comfortable and happy she feels there!!
The team provides a fantastic variety of activities every day, keeping her engaged and stimulated. The menu is also excellent, offering a great range of nutritious meals which changes with the seasons.
All of the staff are incredibly professional, friendly, and supportive. Communication through the app is outstanding, with regular updates and photos throughout the day, which is so reassuring as a parent!!
Most importantly, I always feel confident that my child is safe, well cared for, and genuinely valued.
It's clear that the staff truly care about each child's wellbeing and development and they go above and beyond to help them thrive!

I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing, caring, and stimulating environment for their child.

Overall Experience
I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. My twin boys have attended for just over a year and the progress they have made has been incredible. They come home every day excited to tell me and show me what they have learned and it is amazing to see their confidence, communication and independence grow.
The staff are fantastic and genuinely care about every child. It is clear they love their jobs and the nursery has such a warm, family oriented atmosphere. My boys are always happy to come in, which gives me complete peace of mind knowing they feel safe, loved and supported
Sarah is an absolute asset to the team. My children adore her and talk about her constantly. The care, kindness and dedication she shows them is truly special.

The boys are exceptionally well looked after and I am so grateful for everything the team does. I wouldn't have my children anywhere else. An amazing nursery with amazing staff!!
