Review from Richard U (Father of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our twin baby boys have been at The Old Station Nursery now for two months (February and March 2026) and we are very satisfied with the experience. The boys have settled in and adapted well to the new environment, especially since this is the first time they are socialising with other children.

The nursery staff are all very professional and caring. My wife and I couldn't have hoped for a better nursery experience for our children. We have every intention of having boys progress through the different age group classes at The Old Station Nursery until it is time for them to move on. Currently, the boys do five hours an afternoon two days a week, but we hope space will open up so they can have more days. Overall, we believe it offers excellent value for money.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Taplow

We're so pleased that your boys have settled well and are enjoying their early experiences with us. It's wonderful to read that you feel supported by our team and confident in their journey ahead. Thank you for taking the time to review our nursery!

Overall Experience

Both my daughter and son attend, and we've had such a positive experience over the last 2 and a half years. The nursery has a wonderful team-who are always friendly, flexible, and happy to accommodate our needs. My daughter has really thrived in pre-school and my son has settled in the baby room well too. Communication is consistent, and they have fun, activity-filled days. The location is great, and my daughter loves to play in the outdoor area. I'd happily recommend it to any prospective parents.

Overall Experience
Our daughters have come such a long way since they started at this nursery at 11 months old. We really can't thank the staff enough! They are all so warm, loving and attentive, and always ready to offer helpful advice whenever we need it. Thanks to their care and dedication, our daughters have flourished. There are always a variety of activities planned for the kids to take part in which has helped their development in all areas. They have grown in confidence which is great to see.
The office manager is very accommodating and has been very flexible with our needs and always willing to listen and help. 

We would definitely recommend OSN Taplow to any parent looking for a warm and nurturing environment for their kids.

Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with The Old Station Nursery Taplow. Our daughter joined when she was 11 months old, and the development we've seen in her since then has been incredible. She is always excited to tell us about her day, and clearly feels comfortable and secure there.
The staff in the baby room are truly amazing. They show so much care, attention, and genuine warmth to each child, which gives us great confidence as parents. It's clear that they really get to know every child as an individual.
The activities planned each day are thoughtful, and engaging. The food menus are great and nutritious. We also love the garden area-it's a lovely space, and it's great that the children get outside every day.

Most importantly, our daughter is so happy there, and we feel completely comfortable dropping her off each day knowing she is safe, well cared for, and thriving. We would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Taplow

We're so pleased your daughter has settled so well and is thriving. It's wonderful to read how happy and secure she feels. The team will be delighted to read how you appreciate their caring nature and our environment. Thank you for taking the time to recommend our nursery.

Overall Experience

My Daughter loves going to nursery here, she has done since she started at the beginning of the year. This makes it so much easier for me being a working mum I feel less guilty leaving her as I know she is challenged and learns so much as well as having lots of fun in the process. I would fully recommend it and the staff are so helpful and friendly

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Taplow

It is wonderful to read how much your daughter enjoys her time with us, and we are delighted that she feels happy, engaged, and inspired each day. Knowing that this brings you peace of mind as a working parent means a great deal to the whole team. Thank you so much for taking the time to recommend our nursery.

Overall Experience

I cannot compliment this nursery enough, such a lovely environment, joyful atmosphere with an exceptional office manager and staff. My son was struggling to settle and they did everything for him, to make him happy and fit in. He now wakes up every morning asking if he is going nursery! The office manager is so helpful and very endearing. I will soon be sending my daughter here. Highly recommend.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Taplow

Thank you so much for your comments and for recommending our setting. The settling-in process is different for everyone and it is so important to us that we support both children and parents throughout their time with us.

Review from Rosie J (Mother of Child) published on 15 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son started at Old Station Nursery Taplow when he was 14 months old - he is now nearly 16 months old and is really loving the nursery. All the staff are really kind and professional and the carers in the baby room are fantastic. They really care for my boy and nurture his learning. I receive regular updates throughout the day on the app which really put my mind at ease during the first few weeks and now I scroll through the app like it's the best social media ever. My son cried a lot at drop-offs to begin with but the staff are so comforting and are able to soothe him and distract him while I leave. He still cries occasionally at drop off but I can hear that he stops as soon as I leave. The staff plan fun, interactive and developmental activities for the babies and tie these in with various developmental objectives for the baby's age so you can see how they are developing. The food is great and I know it encourages my son to try things he may not try at home. Highly recommend!

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Taplow

Thank you for recommending our nursery, we are delighted to read how your son is settling into nursery life! Communication is so important, and we are proud to showcase our provision and the activities we offer to support the early years education of the children in our care.

Review from Chloe W (Mother of Child) published on 31 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son joined Old Station Nursery in March 2024. He took a couple of weeks to settle with the team but the team are absolutely amazing in the Baby Room and he settled a lot quicker than I imagined. The staff in the Baby Room is just absolutely amazing and has such a kind caring nature. My son gets excited every morning when arriving to see her and has a huge smile on his face.
My son has developed lots since joining the nursery and I love the moments shared on the app throughout the day. The Nursery Manager is absolutely amazing and very responsive and helpful when any queries have been raised.

I have recommended this Nursery to my friends and feel extremely lucky to have found a Nursery where I know my son is looked after so well and not have that concern when returning to work. I will forever recommend this Nursery. Thank you, everyone, at Old Station Nursery for everything you do for my Son, you truly are an amazing team!

As a parent putting in a child before one, has been anxious however The Old Station Nursery Taplow completely put me at ease. The care and attentiveness towards my son has been nothing short of amazing, the genuine care for my child's well-being and development is truly remarkable. The app keeps you updated regularly with things my son has been doing throughout the day! Would really recommend, from the start management have been responsive to my communications and truly can see they have passion for childcare.

Overall Experience

The old station nursery - Taplow. is truly a wonderful environment for children to learn and be nurtured. The nursery staff have been like a second family to her. The care, love and encouragement the children receive to explore and develop at the nursery is fantastic - and the range of activities the children are involved in is excellent. My husband and I feel incredibly lucky to have found The Old Station Nursery. It’s a superb, warm and nurturing environment where our little girl has flourished. We are hugely grateful for the support, care and effort all the nursery staff go to in order to ensure our child has a wonderful nursery experience.

Review from Becky W (Mother of Child) published on 11 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter, who has special needs, has started at the nursery recently, and as a parent, who was extremely anxious about leaving my daughter with someone other than myself due to her additional needs, I can honestly say this has been the best experience, and I couldn’t have wished for more for both myself and my daughter.
All the nursery nurses have been amazing and reassuring to me, even when I called up every day for the first two weeks to check on her, they reassured me and told me how well she had been doing, which put all my worries to rest.
My daughter has never been left with anyone other than myself, and she has already built a relationship with the team.
Such a fantastic experience, right from the start, with a visit with the manager, who is also lovely and extremely helpful.
Highly recommend this nursery to all friends and family.

Thank you to all the team for being so kind and understanding.

Overall Experience

Everyone is very welcoming and makes sure that you are up to date on what happened that day, the little information makes the difference. The facilities aren’t big and so the classes are also kept smaller which I feel means my daughter can build friendships and have experiences and not be lost in a big class.

Overall Experience
My daughter has attended this nursery for a couple of years now - I have seen nothing but happiness and joy when she comes home! She has learned so much in her time here, and constantly teaching me things! The staff are brilliant at attending to her needs if required and teaching new topics all the time.
The food has been great for my child, who enjoys the majority of it (albeit her fussiness!).
The atmosphere is brilliant, and I can see all the kids socialise and play nicely so well. Teachers are always watching and keeping an eye on the children.
The playground is a great size, with lots of fun activities to partake in.
On top of this, there have been some lovely events that parents can attend which makes the whole experience with the nursery even better.

Highly recommend!

My daughter started the nursery at 10 months old she is now 22 months old, and loves going to nursery. Staff are very friendly and helpful, and my daughter has made great bonds with both the staff in her room (babies) and the staff in the other rooms also. I feel my child has learnt so much already since starting the nursery, and I have seen positive changes in her development!
