Review of
Riverston School Nursery & Pre-school
from Claire G (Mother of Child) published on 1 August 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I have two daughters both of who attended Riverston Nursery and Preschool and the same high standards have always been shown throughout our 6-year journey with Riverston.
My youngest has just left Riverston and I can honestly say Riverston Preschool goes above and beyond. The staff in preschool create

a loving and welcoming environment, and the level of learning is truly amazing - upper pre-school staff thank you so much you have given my girls the key skills they need to succeed.
Management within the nursery are friendly, organised and willing to listen and support whenever the need arises. Nothing is too much for this management team, all your hard work doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you!
Highly recommend this nursery.
A massive thank you to all at Riverston for all you do, we appreciate you!
You will be missed!

from Roberta M (Mother of Child) published on 5 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Amazing nursery. Great value for money for the A* service provided.
Staff are dedicated and professional.
My son has special needs and I am so grateful for the staff's involvement in his learning.
I arrived at Riverston by chance having looked at several other nurseries for my precious son and they

were not only the most accessible but in the long run, I certify they turned out to be the best.
I'm quite upset that this year is my son's last year as he is moving on to reception.
But I'm forever grateful for the support and care Riverton has given us.

Overall Experience

My son loves going to nursery, what more could you ask for as a parent?
The staff are welcoming and happy to talk through the child's day. Also using the app means you get to see photos of your child engaging in activities, have an easy way to communicate with staff and read nursery news.

Review of
Riverston School Nursery & Pre-school
from P W (Mother of Child) published on 23 May 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Riverston pre-school and nursery is a lovely environment. The staffing is very stable, with some staff having been there for over a decade. This was very important for us after experiencing nurseries where our child’s key worker changed every few months due to staff leaving.
The children get plenty

of time outdoors, in all weathers, and do forest school once a week. It’s a great place for helping children become ready for school, and our child has learned a lot in their time here.
Having use of some of the facilities of the (separate) senior school is a real bonus, the nativity show in the senior school’s theatre was absolutely delightful.
Staff pay a great deal of attention to children’s progress and emotional well-being. We have been very pleased in our decision to send our child here.

from Elaine O (Mother of Child) published on 23 May 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I can’t recommend Riverston Nursery and Pre-school enough. The carers are incredible and have such a lovely relationship with the children. I have 2 children attending and both of my girls love going to nursery every day. There is a great balance between education and play with the added benefit of

music class, yoga and forest school. Everything is thought through on how best to support the children as they progress through the nursery, into preschool and beyond. The head and her team are so approachable and friendly, there’s a real positive atmosphere at the nursery.

from J T (Mother of Child) published on 23 May 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our daughter loves Riverston and has been there for 3 and a half years. Everyday is different and the relationships created with her peers and teachers is wonderful. It’s a great way to connect with other parents too!
Flexibility with changing days is difficult but other than that, the team are willing

to support where they can.
Great to see the involvement with a variety of charities and a real focus on diversity and inclusion. Recently had a new app put in place which is great.

Review of
Riverston School Nursery & Pre-school
from Colette P (Mother of Child) published on 29 December 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I had to move my daughter from Riverston due to changing job and location, but I still wanted to leave a review as my daughter was here from 9 months to 18 months old and learnt to walk, sing nursery rhymes and develop so much at this nursery that we were all sad to leave! She really came into her own

here and every morning would wait by the door at home to see her teacher.. even at weekends, when I would have to tell her, there was no nursery on that day. Teachers are just all so nice and caring, and as a single mum, they supported me with care, during lockdown when I lost my job. I could not have gotten through those dark days without them. Thank you so much! I will be sending her back to Riverston when she is older, as that is how much I value not only the Nursery but the Riverston Values and Ethics.

Riverston School Nursery & Pre-school
from Elly W (Mother of Child) published on 3 September 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

From the very first day our son went to Riverston nursery, he absolutely loved it. He was just over one at the time, and he has come on leaps and bounds since being there, his vocabulary and phonics are great for a two-year-old. When we ask him about his friends at nursery, he often mentions the staff

too, and when passing school during the lockdown, he would often cry because he couldn't go in! The teachers are so friendly and caring, and the information provided about his activity is great. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending this nursery to anyone.

Overall Experience

The nursery and preschool staff have always been extremely kind, professional and caring. Communication is excellent and I was always informed as to how my child was interacting with others forming new friendships and her learning abilities. In preschool the weeks curriculum is full, making learning

fun and informative, they even teach French which I love. Overall we have been very happy here and sad to leave.

Overall Experience

My daughter has attended nursery and preschool and will go to primary school in September. She has loved every day there and made lovely friends. She did miss school when lockdown happened, especially forest school. The staff are excellent in all that they do. They all have a very good connection with

each of the children and are caring and kind.
I would highly recommend Riverston Early years.
Many thanks.

Overall Experience

Our little boy has attended Riverston Nursery for 8 months now and we couldn’t be happier with it. The staff are so kind, friendly and attentive and clearly care a lot about the children. Communication with parents is clear and frequent, with daily updates and pictures of the many and varied activities

the children partake in, from baking to playing in the large outdoor forest school.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Riverston and are so pleased we chose it for our son.

from Natasha L (Mother of Child) published on 2 December 2019 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My daughter has been coming to this nursery since she was one. Now at the age of two she is thriving in the nursery setting due to their care and attention to detail. She is involved in a number of daily activities from painting, cooking, messy play and outdoor play including the mud kitchen. The nursery

maintain high standards of care and are very formative in giving the appropriate information needed for parents. My daughter is very happy here and I am waiting to send my youngest when she turns one. The staff are always happy to help, going above and beyond what you would expect. They all clearly adore the work that they do! I would always recommend Broughton Manor Prep to anyone who asks.

Overall Experience

Our little boy has been attending the nursery for six months now. For me, it was the best decision we have made yet. He used to be a little socially shy but he is finally coming out of his shell. It took a few tears but now I see him growing socially, emotionally and cognitively day by day with the

help of the staff. Thank you to all involved. The building and gardens are also glorious, they let the children spend a lot of time in the green beautiful gardens this summer. We had one happy camper on our hands!
