Pine Rivers Kindergarten Ltd

Pine Rivers! What an amazing place this is. My daughter has been attending the nursery 3 days a week for the past 6 months or so. I've honestly been blown away by how brilliant the staff are with her and how much she enjoys her time there. Drop offs in the morning consist of everyone you pass saying hello to her, it's a really positive environment. The nursery itself is quite magical, in a lovely Victorian house with a beautiful garden and clean spaces inside. Communication is amazing as well, there's an app that keeps me updated if I want to know what she's up to. I could go on & on, however I'll end by saying I was so nervous to leave my daughter for the first time when I returned to work. All of those nerves were put to rest with Pine Rivers, I'm so happy we found this nursery.

The one improvement that could be incorporated would be to add more sensory activities and arts and crafts outside of usual daily routines.

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Pine Rivers. My son started at the nursery in May 2026, and it has been wonderful from day one. The staff are so warm, caring, and attentive to his needs, which gave me complete peace of mind. The communication is fantastic; we are always kept well-informed about his day and his progress. He genuinely loves the environment, has settled in beautifully, and is always super happy and smiling. He absolutely loves the sandpit, the slide, and the great selection of toys and books available to him. He's learned so much and his communication is progressing in leaps and bounds, both verbally and with sign language. The staff working throughout the nursery are all very friendly and welcoming, a special shout out to the ladies in Acorn Room who have helped us to all to settle into the new routine. It is a fantastic setting, and I highly recommend it to any parent!

We are kept abreast of everything.

Both my children have attended Pine Rivers Kindergarten (1 still enrolled), they have excellent staff who really take care of the children and who teach them with joy, care and laughter. My currently enrolled child looks forward to going to nursery each day, and the staff are always genuinely happy to see them when they arrive each morning. The meals that they serve are amazing, and are a wonderful well rounded meal - I.e. salmon pasta with runner beans, roast chicken with vegetables and I know that my child really enjoys all the meals that are served each day.

All staff at Pine Rivers are lovely, even those that don't work in my daughter's room will say hello and give time to her. I get updates throughout the day and never have any worries about my daughter.

Pine rivers keeps offering high standard childcare services. With trained staff and a balancing the attendance between rooms they manage to cover every need for each one of the children. My son's been more than two years now there and the quality of service given does not change. Has been spot on throughout this whole period of time for us. Well done. And keep it up. Thank you.

The facilities are clean and well maintained, with a lovely garden and varied play areas. There are frequent events and outings (like Friday library visits), plus special visitors and festive celebrations. They also involve parents through community events and charity initiatives, which is a great touch. The food is healthy and our child really likes it. Highly recommended!

I really like this Nursery all the teaching assistants and teachers are very friendly and lovely my son has been here for several months and he enjoys his time at the nursery very much. Thank you for their patient guidance.

Well done Lesley and the team.

I cannot recommend Pine Rivers enough. The staff are so caring and attentive and our daughter learnt so much in her time here. The management and admin staff are are pleasure to deal with too. The app they use to record your child's day, share pictures and activities really helps keeping you involved in your child's learning and development at the nursery. The range of activities the children get involved in is wonderful and they spend as much time as possible outside which our daughter loved! They have created a wonderful community for children and their parents. We will greatly miss Pine Rivers.

The staff are caring, attentive, and truly dedicated to the children's development. My son loves going every day, and we've seen such great progress in his confidence and learning. A warm, nurturing environment that I highly recommend!

Lovely staff, plenty of activities for children, relaxed atmosphere in the nursery, daily feedback on child's progress. Additional trips organised by staff. Variety of delicious food. Easy way of communication with the nursery through the app.

Pine Rivers Kindergarten is an excellent nursery! The building is clean and spacious. The meal plan is well-thought-out and nutritious. The staff is warm and kind - they made my son feel comfortable and cared for. He's learned a lot of new things to help him prepare for school. We are really happy to choose Pine Rivers Kindergarten for our son.

My one year old has been attending Pine Rivers Kindergarten for the past few months and it's been nothing short of excellent! The staff are all kind and lovely, and the care they've given my son is amazing. I was nervous about sending my son but he always smiles at drop off and pickup, and eats/plays amazingly well there. They are also great at updating the app so I know what he's been doing every day. My husband and I are so happy we went with pine rivers and I would definitely recommend it to any parents who want a safe, clean, and kind atmosphere!

A huge thank you to all the staff for their dedication and care. It's truly reassuring to know she is in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommended!

Our two daughters attended Pine Rivers. The eldest stayed until going to school. We moved out the youngest because we relocated after that. They both have Ezcema and Pine Rivers helped us a lot with the application of their body creams, which we deeply appreciated. The youngest also has some allergies and Pine Rivers was always careful with them. From a financial point of view, the sibling discount helped us reduce our monthly bills. Pine Rivers also uses the app a lot, so we didn't have to wait all day to know what they ate or did. They also publish lots of photos and videos. Our youngest's new nursery only publishes some photos once a month in their app, so we miss all the communication from Pine Rivers. Over 4 years, we had a few disagreements with the management, but nothing too bad. In general, we feel Pine Rivers was a good place for our daughters. They felt loved and cared and they still remember the names of the staff! Plus they also made wonderful friends!

I have now had 3 children go through Pine Rivers from 2012 right up until now with my youngest, and the level of care has been utterly exceptional. All the staff have been so friendly and warm, that all 3 settled in within 3 days of starting. The addition of the app has been great too as now I can get updates on how she is doing and contact her room directly with any questions I have. There's a real home-from-home feel and the garden is perfect for little explorers, I honestly wouldn't think of placing my girls anywhere else. If you are looking for a small, independent and personal nursery in Reading this is the one!

I have two children attending, they both are enjoying and developing their experiences at this nursery. The staff are friendly, there are regular updates along with progress consultation and it has a spacious, clean and secure environment.

My daughter enjoyed all the time when she was at nursery. She learnt many things. She was always ready to go to nursery. She loves there because she loves to learn new things and she also enjoyed being with their friends and all teacher. It was really a memorable time for her.
