Overall Experience

Abbey Wood have provided excellent care for my son from a baby through to pre-school. The nursery is good value for money and the staff are great. Communication with parents is very good and the standard of care overall has been wonderful. It is also close to Kenley station which is very useful for me. I would recommend this nursery to anyone in the area.

Overall Experience

My son attends Abbey Wood Grange Day Nursery two days a week and he absolutely loves it there. He is so content he doesn't even notice when we leave him there very early each morning. The staff are a delight, so caring, attentive and friendly. When my son is at nursery I am never worried as I know that he is in very safe hands. Big thank you. They are outstanding.

Overall Experience
My daughter currently attends this nursery and so did my son and niece.
I couldn't be happier, staff are all lovely and my daughter loves going and hates leaving.

Always great fresh food cooked daily and so much to do during the day ie activities garden, play romp, room stories, songs, I cannot fault this nursery my son is 7 and still talks about his time here and how much he misses going to nursery.

Review from Gavin S (Father of Child) published on 4 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have been so impressed by Abbey Wood Nursery, and the lengths their staff go to to ensure my son enjoys his time there and learns in the process. He has been going to the nursery for almost a year, and it is clear he loves his time there. The staff are always incredibly friendly, welcoming, and cheerful. I am always totally satisfied that my son is in safe hands, and it is clear they care so much for the children. I am always provided with a detailed summary of his activities throughout the day, and they always answer any questions I have, no matter how silly they seem. The facilities are superb at the nursery, with so many different areas for my son to explore and visit inside and out, and so many different ways for him to improve his development. The food choices are also really varied, and fantastic quality. I would absolutely recommend Abbey Wood Nursery Ltd. to any parent and I am so happy that my son is in such an amazing and safe environment! A huge thank you to everyone there!

Lovely nursery, great staff and fab outdoor space in a lovely location. My daughter loves her days here and has enjoyed learning new skills. She also eats far more foods at nursery than she does at home so the catering must be good!

I have two busy boys that attend Abbey Wood, the oldest has been in attendance for 3 years. We cannot fault this Nursery! My boys are so happy here. All staff across my 3 year experience has been incredibly lovely, helpful and attentive. They always make me feel as if my children are their favourite! My son will be sad to leave for Big School next year!

I was extremely nervous when my son started nursery back in August but the staff really took care of him and he settled in straight away.
Thank you for making the transition that bit easier for us both.

He really does enjoy his time with you.

Review from Mair W (Grandmother of Child) published on 2 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I visited the nursery today and the staff were so friendly and happy.

As I live a far distance from my daughter I was anxious about how she would cope working from home with my 18-month-old grandson being around. My daughter viewed a few nurseries and none of them could accommodate what my daughter was looking for.

Overall Experience

This nursery is brilliant, they are very efficient, caring and professional. It is a very well structured environment and every time I pick my child up they give me a full report on her day so one to one basis with the children is very good. All the staff are so pleasant and friendly in the mornings even though they are all up at the crack of dawn!

Review from Christina M (Mother of Child) published on 1 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been attending the nursery for about 18 months and she enjoys every moment of it.
We are already feeling sad about the idea of her leaving nursery next September to start school because we feel so comfortable with the care she receives here.
The staff are so friendly and genuinely care for the children. They take their time to talk to the parents and keep you up to date about all the funny things your child has said or done during the day.
The staff always seem happy and never stressed or grumpy. Management always go out of their way to try to accommodate any last minute changes in childcare requirements which is important for someone like me who is a nurse and works shifts.

Overall, we love the nursery and are glad we choose to send our daughter there.

Overall Experience

My son is currently at this nursery and not long into him starting, it was his mum's birthday. The nursery helped him do a lovely card which included lots of pictures of him enjoying days at Abbey Wood Grange.

We get newsletters to keep us updated. They cook a wide range of food.

So to sum it up, this is an excellent nursery.

Review from Jette O (Mother of Child) published on 21 October 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started nursery when she was 7 months old and I was nervous as she could hardly entertain herself at that stage. She could just about sit but not crawl or walk. I was put at ease very quickly and all team members reassured me repeatedly answering my numerous questions. Once my daughter started, she immediately loved it. They really cater for the individual baby. My little princess didn't want to sleep in the cot, in the beginning, so they let her sleep in the swing. They also give a lot of cuddles and hugs which I find very important in the early years. The nursery sends regular updates and pictures and it's really good to see my daughter having so much fun and doing a lot of messy play. In the morning, she sings when we get close to the nursery, so she must like it there.

The staff are very friendly and welcoming; they are attentive to the children and do a wonderful job of making you, as parents feel at ease.

Review from Jayne A (Mother of Child) published on 13 October 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our children attend the nursery one day a week and have settled in well. They have recently moved up to the next room and the welcome they have received there had been great. Within 2 weeks they have stopped crying on drop off. They always seem to have had a good day and I like the variety of activities that they do. The staff in their room and the office staff have always been very friendly and helpful.

Review from Carina W (Mother of Child) published on 13 October 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have previously reviewed the nursery when my son was younger, however, I have been so impressed with the transition from nursery care to Pre-school care at Abbey Wood that I wanted to leave another. My son has recently moved into the final class at Abbey Wood 'Woodlands' and the difference in structure has been great and a very smooth transition. I was particularly impressed with the nursery's communication to parents as to the changes that would be made and the information given with regards to preparing for school and I can see that my son is thriving on the different learning activities that have been implemented. I have always liked the environment at Abbey Wood throughout the years but even more so now that updates have been made to the classrooms and building as well as the level of communication with parents. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery for babies all the way up until school.
