The Old Forge Nursery

from C C (Mother of Child) published on 27 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little boy started at Old Forge in May 2025 in the baby bears room. One staff member in particular and the team helped him to settle in quickly and reassured him throughout. They were really flexible around his needs and routine to make the transition as easy as possible e.g. offering him his food
on a separated plate when he refused to eat at nursery for the first few weeks. They gave us lots of updates and photos through the app which meant we could relax at work knowing he was having lots of fun! Couldn't recommend Old Forge and the baby bears team enough!
Reply from Helen White, Marketing Manager at The Old Forge NurseryThank you so much for your lovely review. We're thrilled to hear that your little boy has settled so well into the Baby Bears room since joining us. The team will be over the moon to know their flexibility and extra touches (like the separate plate!) helped make those early weeks easier for him, and for you too.It's always our goal to make the transition as smooth and comforting as possible, and it's wonderful to know the updates and photos gave you peace of mind while you were at work. We'll be sure to share your kind words with the whole Baby Bears team, they'll be delighted!We really appreciate your recommendation.

Beeches Park Children's Day Nursery

from Maria M (Mother of Child) published on 7 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little baby, has always been very attached to me, and leaving him anywhere used to come with tears - for both of us. But nursery is the only place he goes without crying after me. From the very first days it was clear how caring and patient the staff are. Even though it was hard at first, they supported
him (and me!) every step of the way. Now he walks in happily and feels at home there. We're really grateful for the kindness and attention they show the children. Thank you for making such a difference in his early years!

The Old Forge Nursery

from H T (Mother of Child) published on 15 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We cannot rate the nursery high enough - our daughter started full time when she was 8 months old and the teams have supported so much of her development. Our daughter has also built strong bonds with many members of staff which is so special to see, especially given how much time she spends there.
One of our favourite parts about the nursery is the menu they offer - they really helped our weaning journey and our daughter has such a diverse palette all thanks to the meals the nursery provide.
Reply from Helen White, Marketing Manager at The Old Forge NurseryThank you so much for your wonderful review, it means the world to our team to know how much you value the care and support we provide. It's lovely to hear how strong the bonds are between your daughter and our staff, those relationships really are at the heart of what we do. We're also thrilled that you've enjoyed our nursery menu and that it has helped so much with your weaning journey. Healthy, delicious food is so important to us, as is our commitment to providing varied and nutritious meals for all our children. Thank you again for your kind words and for being part of The Old Forge family.

Beeches Park Children's Day Nursery

from Kirsty G (Mother of Child) published on 16 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved house, meaning my child had to start a new nursery. I was very nervous that he would not adapt well, but I can honestly say Beeches Park has been brilliant. Not only has he settled brilliantly, but he has also developed so well and is constantly surprising me every day with new skills he has
learnt while at nursery. On top of this, my child was a fussy eater before starting this nursery, and since attending here, he now eats a huge variety of food. The staff are great, they provide me with lots of feedback on how my child is getting on each day and ensure that I feel comfortable to ask any question I may have. Most importantly, my child has made great relationships with the staff at the nursery and will often talk about them and looks forward to attending each day.
Reply from Louise Monange, Manager at Beeches Park Children's Day NurseryThank you for your lovely review and positive feedback. We are very proud of our menu and quality of food and it makes us very happy to hear that both you and your child enjoy it as well. We have as much fun as the children and enjoy spending time with all the children in our nursery.

Although my child hasn't been at nursery for very long, they have settled so quickly and loves going. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the activities the children do are varied and fun, and I particularly like the communication from the room leaders.

I am very happy with Beeches Park Children's Day Nursery. My daughter loves to be there every day! She is learning a lot in there. I can see massive progress in her language (English is not her first ). Everyday there is something new, different, interesting to do. You can tell it is not place there
kids are just left to play all day long. There is lot of fun, activities, learning, outside time. The Food Menu is really impressive, healthy and tasty.
All teachers have very close connection with kids, like family. Never seen anything wrong.

We've had a lot of experience with nurseries with our eldest first in them and now our youngest. Beeches Nursery is first class, we travel across the other side of town to take him because they are just fantastic and he loves every day with them. We get daily updates and high-quality photos from all
his activities and experiences. This is our 6th nursery and by far the best!!!

The girls that work at the nursery are brilliant with the children, the activities they put on are so imaginative and really great fun for the kids and amazing for their development, one of my son's favourites was the jelly bug hunt! The food menu is healthy and contains a wide variety of home-cooked
meals, my little one particularly loves the salmon and asparagus carbonara.
I love receiving pictures and updates from the nursery, I feel really confident that my son is being looked after well and he always goes in with a smile on his face and leaves happy and excited to go back. Would highly recommend Beeches Park to any parent!
Reply from Louise Monange, Manager at Beeches Park Children's Day NurseryThank you for your lovely review and taking the time to send it in, we really appreciate it.

We are very happy that you both enjoy your time at the nursery as this is what we strive to do.

Beeches Park Children's Day Nursery

from T V (Mother of Child) published on 15 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My kid started the nursery in September last year. It was really hard for him to stay without his mum. The girls from there are really professionals and they spent time with him, cuddle him and stay with him in their arms the whole day whenever he felt it was needed. After a week he was going there
with happiness and coming back home happy. They asked from the beginning what he likes, we went for 3 days in order to accommodate and observed what he likes to play with. My kid only knew Romanian when he started the nursery, now after 5 months, he can talk with the girls in English. He has started at preschool now, he is in another room with different teachers. Because he was really attached by one of the teachers from nursery group, she went with him to preschool and helped him to settle. I love them and my kid as well. He is learning new things every day and he loves to be there. I really recommend them.
Reply from Louise Monange, Manager at Beeches Park Children's Day NurseryThank you for your lovely review and the time you have put aside to write it is very much appreciated.

My son's child has started at this nursery and I have been blown away by the friendly support they have been given. I've even been included on the app so I get pictures and videos of my grandchild. Such a lovely place.

I just love the way the staff build a relationship with my daughter and also help settle any anxiety when my little girl started. As my daughter was a lockdown baby, they really helped me to get my daughter settled in. I love the homely and friendly environment they have created. Love the way they nurture

Both our children attend and love The Old Forge, the staff are enthusiastic and fantastic. The food is incredible and makes us jealous on a regular basis and our favourite aspect of the nursery is their incredible forest school. Our children return home so happy with stories of their forest adventures.
