Seeing her thrive in the setting over her first few weeks was wonderful. The care and commitment from key workers and other staff is noticeable. Our kids love it there.

cannot thank the amazing staff, they really are the best.
My daughter has been at the nursery since 10 months old and she is now 4. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

amazing, healthy and varied meals every day which gives me one less thing to worry about planning for! Overall, we are so happy with everything this nursery has to offer.

made sure she feels settled and secure. The nursery has a fantastic range of activities and our daughter adores the forest school on site and coming home to show us her dance moves learnt in her weekly ballet lesson. I love that she will get to play outside whatever the weather. Her speech and language is greatly improving and the nursery were proactive in giving extra support in these areas, suggesting extra resources and taking the time to meet with me and making sure we had a support plan in place. I would definitely recommend this nursery and love how happy my daughter is each day coming out and telling me about the food she's eaten, crafts made, new songs learnt and activities she's done.

team are also really hands-on, keep parents updated and are very accessible for any query however small. I feel happy knowing my little girl is so well cared for when I'm at work and that makes leaving her so much easier!

brilliant, and make his days fun-filled and educational. He has learnt so many new things since being at The Old School House including new songs and rhymes. His enthusiasm when he comes out at the end of the day is fantastic and he can't wait to go back the next day. We would totally recommend The Old School House to any parents.

have excelled. They have worked absolutely wonders in the Ducklings room, and I honestly cannot thank them enough. I will continue to recommend them to everyone I come across. They are extremely welcoming, lovely and kind. They really show the children are at the core of their care, and drive to help them as much as they can! Thank you Old School House, I cannot wait to carry our journey on with you guys through the next few years. As special thank you to the ducklings team; As well as the management team, who are extremely lovely!

second family. They care for and nurture him. I cannot rate them high enough! The app they use to keep parents updated is wonderful and the staff always make huge effort to update and share photos, videos and daily logs of activities. There have been many exciting day trips out too, small and large. They offer varied and rotating food which ensures even a picky eater is satisfied.

child feel valued & supported. Their passion for what they do is evident in the way they engage with the children, fostering their growth and creativity while ensuring their individual needs are met. The facilities are fantastic, and thoughtfully designed to encourage exploration and learning. Communication with parents is excellent; we are kept informed about our child's progress and daily activities. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful nursery. Staff treat the children as if they were their own, and that level of care and commitment is rare to find. Highly recommend The Old School House Nursery to any parents looking for a truly outstanding place for their little ones.

manner. In an Educational setting, children should be nurtured in a loving environment allowing them to flourish and grow and my child is absolutely thriving. He loves coming to nursery and has formed special relationships with both staff and other children. The app is a fantastic way to share observations which are detailed with my child's interests at the heart of what they do. Whenever I've had concerns the staff have taken the time to arrange meetings in a busy environment even if that means out of hours. You should be really proud of your team for being so welcoming and attentive.

They have a lovely garden for the babies as well as a separate one for the older children. Their communication is excellent so, as a new mum, I haven't felt like I'm missing out on seeing my daughter grow up being at work full time.

trips and put so much effort into daily and weekly activities. We can't recommend The Old School House enough.

Can't fault them at all. Since starting my daughter has learnt so many things and has even learnt baby sign which is fantastic. Thank you The Old School House.
