Review from L N (Mother of Child) published on 11 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The nursery is in a lovely location with lots of outside space, which the children have access to all day. Parking is really easy in the dedicated car park, which takes the stress out of drop off/pick up.
The facilities inside and out are fantastic, catering for a range of interests, and educational activities are provided each day.
The team communicate with parents regularly via a daily app, and details of the activities the children have done are shared in a weekly email.
The staff are warm and caring towards the children, and go above and beyond to make sure they’re happy. It’s so lovely to speak to them at the end of the day about your child’s day, and see how proud they are of their achievements. The management is also very open and always happy to help, with a compassionate approach. They’ve been flexible for my family when we’ve needed it, which we really appreciate.

Couldn’t recommend the nursery more highly!

Review from I P (Mother of Child) published on 11 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Head Start Day Nursery for nearly 2 years now and we are so happy that we chose the setting for him. He loves playing outdoors so we are pleased that he can spend a lot of time in the amazing outdoor areas of the nursery. The staff are all so caring and attentive, our son has additional needs and the nursery Special Educational Needs Coordinator has been brilliant and informative and helpful on that front too. The daily activities are great for learning, the menu is varied and healthy, and our son is always very happy to go to nursery in the mornings. Thank you Head Start, I don’t know what we would do without you!

Review from Cass M (Mother of Child) published on 11 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son has attended head start crews hill since he was 11 months old and is now 4 and in his final year at the nursery.
He has received amazing care and support at the nursery. The staff are what makes the nursery stand out from others. They genuinely care and make a real connection with the children. Our son adores the girls and all they do to make his learning fun!
Our son will be leaving the nursery able to read, spell and write his name, sing and read the alphabet. Count to 100 and write his favourite words clearly. He amazes me with how far he has come.
He absolutely loves the sports classes they have on a Monday and the Spanish classes on a Friday.
The nursery has improved over the years and lots of investment is being made to keep that momentum going.

The outside space was a huge attraction to us when choosing the nursery and the children get so much benefit from this all year round.

The staff at Head Start Day Nursery Crews Hill really are an asset to the nursery. They make it such a wonderful, kind and caring environment for the children to learn and grow. My nephew is extremely happy within the setting and it’s so amazing to see what he gets up to on the online log. The garden space is just fantastic. You can really see all the effort that goes into the nursery on a daily basis!

My child was behind for his age due to not being able to go anywhere during lockdown, he has flourished since being at Head Start Day Nursery. The staff are friendly and so helpful, they build relationships with the children instead of just being there to look after them. My son looks forward to going every day never a single tear.

Our little one started in July 2020 when he was just under 1 year old. He has always been very well cared for and we felt happy leaving him there. During The Covid pandemic the staff worked extremely hard and provided a valued service to all the key workers.

Our cheeky little one has thrived, made loads of new friends, eats like a king and even came home last week talking Spanish. The staff are very warm and our little one adores them.

Overall Experience

Nursery was a very big step for us as our daughter is our first baby, she was born during lockdown so spent a lot of time at home. It is a really reassuring feeling knowing she is in safe hands and is welcomed with open arms. Her key worker is very warm and nurturing as well as the other staff that she has bonded with. Her development has come on leaps and bounds since starting nursery. It is a brilliant space and great learning environment and we are really happy we chose this nursery. Thank you to all the staff, you are all fantastic at what you do.

Overall Experience

Head Start Day Nursery Crews Hill is an amazing nursery, my 2-year-old son is always happy and excited to go in when I drop him off in the morning and I can tell he's had a great day at pick up. I always receive detailed feedback at the end of the day which is comforting to know they pay attention to detail on his development throughout the day. The food is very good as my son seems to eat more there than he does at home. I would happily recommend Head Start.

Overall Experience
Our daughter has settled in really well, all be it unexpected to due to her attachment to her parents but the staff at the nursery have been so kind and loving to our daughter and she has enjoyed every minute of being there.
We’re very happy with the staff and all of the updates that we are receiving for every occasion our daughter is at the nursery.

I am very grateful to have a nursery like this to send my daughter to.

We absolutely love this setting. The staff are so friendly and really care about the children. The learning journey is always so well planned with fantastic experiences and activities to help the children learn in a practical way. Communication with parents is really good with daily updates, weekly memos and regular emails. We really could not be happier and neither could our son.

Staff were so friendly, equipment was amazing and outside areas was just perfect. From when I came to view the nursery I didn’t bother looking else where and put my sons name down. My son looked so happy and comfortable there and I also felt comfortable too.

My friends have even signed up too. Can’t wait for him to start.

Good communication with all staff, they know the children well and have a great rapport with the children. There are lots of different planned activities around children’s current interests and when celebrating special days/events. I love that my 19-month-old takes part in music and Spanish lessons at the nursery! Good outdoor area too.

Review from R E (Father of Child) published on 18 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has special educational needs and is incredibly well-supoorted by the Special Educational Needs Coordinator and all staff. He has thrived since moving to Head Start Day Nursery as he is a child that loves being active outdoors. He is always excited by the different animals that he gets to learn about and watch staff care for - from chickens to guinea pigs.

The communication and support is always there and we have decided to keep him at the nursery for preschool, rather than a maintained nursery.

Review from F C (Mother of Child) published on 18 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child has been starting his settling in sessions at this nursery since the beginning of February. As a new mum of an under 1-year-old this has been a big thing for me to have to do but the staff have been so accommodating in booking our sessions and providing a great deal of free settling sessions so that by the time he starts in April he is much more used to the nursery experience.

They are easily contactable, always greet you with a happy demeanour on drop off and pick up. I receive in-depth feedback both face to face and via the app. They make me feel relaxed about sending my baby to nursery and especially at such a young age as they seem to really care.

Reply from Harjit, Digital Marketing Executive at Crews Hill Day Nursery and Pre-School

Review from Kiren S (Mother of Child) published on 18 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter started 2 days a week in January 2022 and since she started we have seen huge developments in her personality and skills.
The nursery staff have been paramount in developing her sensory skills, her eating skills and general communication skills. She undertakes activities during her days at nursery that we are unable to provide at-home thereby experiencing many different environments she wouldn’t necessarily have exposure to.
Our daughter is quite sociable and outgoing but my husband and I both agree that we have seen her come on in leaps and bounds that we never thought would be possible in such a short space of time.

We look forward to seeing how she continues to develop.
