The Old School House Nursery & Pre School

from Peter C (Father of Child) published on 14 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The management team and staff are very Communicative - the monthly newsletters to parents are interesting, and the personal approach from the owners is great. The amount of detail and daily pics in the app is wonderful. Both our kids are at OSH, with our littlest starting in the baby room in January.
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.
Reply from Charlotte Richardson, Nursery Area Manager at The Old School House Nursery & Pre SchoolHi Peter, I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt thanks for your wonderful feedback about our nursery.

My daughter is in the preschool room and she cannot wait to go in each day.
She absolutely loves the team who look after her. They have so much passion for what they do and they go above and beyond.
My daughter comes home so happy and tells me about all the incredible activities she has been up too.
I
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.

I would highly recommend The Old School House Cabot Lane. The setting is so lovely, the staff are so friendly and my little girl is always so happy to go in. The regular trips and their outside garden space is just wonderful for the children to explore the outside world. The chef onsite cooks the most
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.

from E P (Mother of Child) published on 17 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Staff at The Old School House have been fantastic welcoming our little girl into the nursery. She started just after her 3rd birthday and was quite anxious starting, having been at her previous nursery since she was 8 months old. However, three staff members in particular have been fantastic and really
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.
Reply from Charlotte Richardson, Nursery Area Manager at The Old School House Nursery & Pre SchoolI hope this message finds you well.

The Old School House is such a lovely nursery - the staff are wonderful and my little girl absolutely loves her keyworkers - she talks about them all the time. They treat each child as an individual and really support parents with changes as the children grow up e.g potty training etc. The management
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!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our 2-year-old started at The Old School House September 2024, after being at another nursery. Our son settled in straight away and we were made to feel very welcomed from day one. He loves going into nursery every day and always has a smile on his face. This is due to his three main workers, who are
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.

The Old School House is amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better group of people to hand over our child to at nine months old. The whole team have made it easy to understand, guided us throughout and entertained our child well beyond what we could do organically. We all absolutely love this place.

Since my little boy has started The Old School House in September, he has come out of his shell so much. They have built the most incredible bond with him and he feels safe enough to go in without any tears. His speech has come on leaps and bounds, his knowledge, concepts and especially problem-solving
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!

Our child has been with the nursery for over a year and he loves it. The staff are attentive and help with regular feedback to parents. On a daily basis we get a repost of what our child has been doing, how well they have eaten/slept/etc. we also get regular photos of them having a brilliant time. The
facilities are brilliant too with a great outdoor space. Would recommend to others.

We have been going to The Old School House now for just over a year, from 11 months old. The facilities are fantastic, the outdoor space is incredible. Activities are creative, imaginative and really encourage development and learning whilst being fun. The staff - just wow. The staff are my child's
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.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I recently sent an email into the nursery directly and wanted to share this as a review:
I wanted to thank you all for your care, support and attentiveness when things have been challenging. I believe the nursery has gone from strength to strength with new leadership, functioning in a much more positive
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.

The team at The Old School House have made my daughter's transition to nursery (and me back to work) so much easier. Not only do I have peace of mind that she is safe and well cared for. They do such a huge range of activities with them; things we would never do at home so she gets a range of experiences.
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.
