Milford Early Years Centre

from S B (Mother of Child) published on 24 April 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Even though my son hasn't wanted to say goodbye to mum or dad each morning at drop off, I know he is in such safe hands and I know he is going to be smiling again within minutes. The staff are so caring and attentive. I love this nursery as they go out everday, sometimes twice a day if the kiddies want
to, they encourage adventure and outdoor play! I am very grateful of the staff looking after all of the children, they are all amazing! Thank you! The only reason why I cant give 4 stars is because of the size of the garden, it would be perfect if there was more outdoor space but thankfully they have so many places on their doorstep to walk to.

My daughter has been attending for just under a year. She loves attending and is always met with a friendly face. All members of staff, regardless of whether they are her key worker or not, know her daily routine very well and are able to give clear hand-over notes of how her day went. My daughter has
continued to grow in confidence in their care and I feel she is very well prepared for her transition to school life as a result.

My daughter has really settled into the nursery so well she goes in so contently and comes out so happy. The staff have all been so welcoming, attentive and informative and we can tell she has a great bond with them all. My daughter has grown in confidence and her speech has developed so much since
attending. The staff are really passionate about each individual child and take time getting to know them on a personal level and always helping them developing their personal milestones ensuring they're always happy too. Would definitely recommend to anyone

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hamble early years are an amazing nursery. I feel very at ease with both of my children being there.
The staff really care and develop strong relationships with the children and have a genuine love for the children. My daughter's confidence has grown lots since attending.
Every morning and evening
at pick up and drop off they spend the time to talk about their days in detail. I found the nursery to be a lot calmer then others my children have attended which is so much better for the children.
I would highly recommmend this nursery to anyone considering it.

My daughter has been going since September last year and has absolutely thrived here. The staff are all fantastic and so caring. She comes home telling us all the exciting things she has done each day and loves looking through the photos of what she's done that have been uploaded to Tapestry. She will
be very sad to leave Newlands when she goes to school next year!

My daughter loves going to Kings Worthy Early Years, and I can see why. The staff are incredibly welcoming and make every child feel comfortable from the moment they walk in. They really encourage independence and support each child at their own pace. Any help or specific needs are handled with great
care and understanding. I'm very happy with the experience my daughter is having here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has loved 'school' since day one at Newlands, she gets excited to go in and tells me all about her day filled with excitement.


I love that they are always updating the online parent portal with pictures and updates same day so you know exactly what there up to and can encourage my daughter

to remember what shes done and tell me all about it.


All the lady's/Teachers i have had nothing but positive vibes from, they provide detailed handovers on pick up and clearly care for all the children shown in how well they know every individual child. My daughter was in nappies when she started and is now potty trained, they have fully supported through the transition.


Overall, my daughter loves going to Newlands and even on her days off is asking to go back, i as a parent have had no issues and think their communication is 10/10. Considering how nervous i was with starting this journey for my daughter its been nothing but great for her

All the staff at Newlands Early Years Centre are honestly amazing. Every single one of them has their own special qualities, and you can really see how much the kids benefit from it. They're so hands-on, caring, and genuinely loving with the children.


My daughter absolutely loves going to pre school-she's

never once said she didn't want to go! They do so many fun, creative learning activities, and it's clear how much thought they put into making each day exciting.


I also love the app, where they keep you updated on what the kids get up to each day. It's so nice being able to see what she's been doing.


We couldn't be happier with Newlands & the amazing staff. It's such a lovely place for the kids to grow & learn!

The children take part in wide range of activities which support all areas of her development. The staff are always communicating to
us and supportive especially from her key person. I will recommend this nursery to anyone.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The nursery has good outdoor areas and a lovely selection of outdoor garden activities. It's great that they often do the woodland walk and multi sports on a set day each week. My child doesn't tell me about what he has learnt so will be nice to have more updates on the app or a paper newsletter to
see what he has been up to. A few times he's come home and had an accident in his pants so would love for staff to try and encourage the children to go bathroom before pick up. He loves the multi sports and the garden time activities. Staff are great and easy to talk to. Food is good we bring in lunch but nursery provides snacks etc. nursery is very clean and well looked after we love the borrowing books.

My daughter just loves to go the centre. She's always coming out with happy face and had lots of fun. The centre really try their best they just keep organising fun entertaining and educational activities for the kids. The communication is excellent. Parents can talk with the centre workers even on
morning or at collection time or on phone. The manager responds the emails also very quick. Everyone is really kind, they love the kids and they love them too. My daughter learnt so much already at the last couple of weeks and she's just getting more and more confident and independent after every single day.

Applemore Early Years Centre

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We couldn't be happier with our experience at Applemore. Our eldest started here when they were two and has just moved on to school, and our youngest (now two) has recently joined. The staff are absolutely fantastic - every single person who works there is warm, caring, and genuinely invested in the
children's happiness and development.


We were initially unsure about the mixed-age setting (2-5 years), but it's actually been one of the best things about the nursery. The younger children learn so much from watching and joining in with the older ones, while the older children gain confidence and learn to be gentle and helpful. It creates such a lovely, family-like atmosphere.


A special mention must go to Mandy, our child's key worker, who is exceptional. She goes above and beyond to understand each child's needs and personality, and she's made both our children feel safe, loved, and encouraged every day.


Applemore is a lovely start for young children and I highly recommend it.

My little boy has been going to this pre school since September and he LOVES IT! He's always talking about pre school and very excited when it's the days he goes. The staff are really good with him there, provides photos of activities he's done and gives a detailed overview on how his day has been and
what he's ate/not ate etc. They all are really sweet, bubbly and welcoming and I am so glad I chose here :)

I would 100% recommend this nursery to anyone! My daughter went here for 3 years and now my son goes there and just the best experience for both parents and children. The staff are just amazing, they're so supportive and friendly and when picking your child up from their day, you get a good briefing
of how they're day was, what they got up to and any issues or problems. In the 3-4 years I have been going to this nursery I have never once had any issues at all, my daughter loved it and still talks about the staff there. My son, who is under assessments for autism and adhd loves it, he has come on so much and is improving constantly and it's because of this nursery. They are so accommodating to all children's needs, I'll be sad when I no longer have any children here
