We've had a wonderful experience with this nursery. My daughter settled in so quickly, which was such a relief as a parent, and I never worry leaving her in their care. It didn't take her long at all to feel comfortable and happy, and it's clear that the staff really take the time to get to know each
child individually. They know my daughter so well, which gives me a lot of confidence that she's in great hands.The staff are always friendly, helpful and approachable. They make a real effort to get to know you on a personal level and have a laugh with you, which makes the whole experience feel very welcoming and supportive. I love receiving the photo updates on the app -it's so nice to see what she's been up to - as well as general information about her day.
The little touches, like the crafts and small gifts the children make, are such a lovely bonus and something we really treasure at home.
Most importantly, my daughter is always happy to be there, which says everything!

We have been really impressed with how well Ralph has settled in to his nursery room. He adores Anette and the food. We enjoy updates when we receive them but I have mentioned to Liz that some days we don't get any pictures/updates so this could be improved as this is the highlight of our days. The
nursery environment is always pleasant and clean. We are looking forward to more updates and Ralph's learning journey.
Reply from Leah Hannon, Customer Service at Nature Trail On The Hill ParboldThank you so much for your thoughtful feedback. Were really pleased to hear how well Ralph has settled into his room and its lovely to know he adores Annette and mealtimes! We truly appreciate your comments about the updates, too. Your feedback is important, and well continue working on providing more regular photos and observations so you can enjoy those special moments from his day. Were glad you find the environment welcoming and clean, and we look forward to sharing more of Ralphs learning journey with you.

As a family, we have enjoyed the journey of 2 of our children at this setting. Both are shy and cautious children by nature. It's down to the home-from-home feeling of the place and the loving support of the staff, that have helped our children develop their confidence. This is a happy place, where
imagination is nurtured, friendships built and memories made.

We love Nature Trail Heskin! The staff are absolutely brilliant and would 100% recommend. Our Children LOVE the staff and develop a wonderful bond with them. Child 1 attended 2020-2025 and child 2 started in 2025, with both children absolutely loving their time spent at Nursery.
Outdoor activities were
a priority for us when choosing which nursery to attend, and Nature Trail Heskin does it all, from daily outdoor play to regular walks and park trips.
Both Children have excelled since attending, and I would recommend this Nursery to anybody.

My little boy started with Nature Trail Heskin when he was about 11months old. He had a difficult few weeks acclimatising, but the staff worked with us to help put him at ease. Fast forward a few months and now he loves it! When I collect him, he's happy to carry on playing which is a sure sign hes
thriving in the social environment in nursery.
We love the updates and pictures we get in the app, it helps paint a picture of what hes been up to and helps put your mind at ease.
Thanks to all the staff for helping our little boy to thrive

Our little boy has been attending Nature on the Hill for nearly a year now, and he absolutely loves it. All of the staff are very friendly, approachable, and always go above and beyond to make sure the he is happy and cared for during his days at nursery.
One thing we really appreciate is how often
they update the parent app. When I'm at work it's lovely to see what he's been up to during the day. They regularly upload photos, usually once or twice a day, which is very reassuring and shows just how much fun he is is having.
It's clear that he is not only enjoying themselves but also learning lots of different skills through a great mix of activities and play. We're really happy with the care and environment they provide and would highly recommend the nursery to other parents.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 12 months old. We have taken time away from the nursery due to work commitments and always been welcomed back. My daughter loves her key worker and has done in each room she has been in. The nursery has always been welcoming and worked around
changes in schedules over the years. You can see the staff really care about the children.

Both of my children have attended Old School House, with my eldest now in her first year of school and my youngest in Hedgehog class. Both children love going to nursery and the staff should take every credit for that. They always go the extra mile to bond with the children and come up with new, creative
ideas for them to get stuck into.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. The care, attention and nurturing environment they receive every day is truly wonderful. The staff are kind, patient and genuinely invested in each child's development and happiness.
A special thank you to Kat, who has been incredible in supporting our younger
child. Her kindness, understanding and encouragement have made such a positive difference. She goes above and beyond to ensure our child feels safe, confident and included and we are so grateful for the care she provides.
It gives us such peace of mind knowing our children are in such capable and caring hands. We would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a supportive and welcoming environment for their little ones.

The staff at Old School House make the nursery feel home from home. My daughter settled in pretty much on the first session thanks to the brilliant team that they have. Always a positive greeting in the morning : ) Play, learning and care is evident from the development that I have seen within my daughter.
Nothing is a problem whether it's dietary requirements, adjustments or clarification on something. I definitely made the right decision as I couldn't imagine my daughter anywhere else now. Snails room has been nothing short of wonderful. Huge thanks to you all at OSH in particular to Management, snails team and the lovely chef keeping our little loved ones nourished. The app is fab and I love getting the updates and photos

My son has been at this nursery since March 2024. Every single step of the way he has had full support and is now thriving in this nursery environment. The staff here are all incredibly committed and have your child's best interest at heart. I couldn't think of a better nursery for my son. The activities
they do with the children are brilliant and teach them so much in fun ways. Routine here is also brilliant and really works for my son. 10/10.
