Review from Michelle M (Mother of Child) published on 12 May 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been going to Green Park Nursery since August 2019 and he absolutely loves it there. He was a bit apprehensive at first due to being in a new place but it wasn't long until he was off with the staff and waving me goodbye. The staff are friendly, professional, and take the time to talk to parents which is great. The rooms are excellent, providing the right level of stimulation for the age of the children in the room as well as age-appropriate toys and activities. I particularly like that the nursery is open plan, so children can see each other in the other rooms, and the outdoor areas are shared. Since going to Green Park Nursery, my son has developed excellent social skills, has developed well emotionally and is given the right opportunities to make sure he meets the EYFS goals. I could not recommend this nursery more.

Review from Jacqui (Mother of Child) published on 12 May 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started here in July 2019 (10 months old) in the caterpillar room and has since moved up to ladybirds. It's an extremely well-run nursery and staff are super attentive. One can tell they are genuinely motivated in their jobs. The important point is that my daughter comes home happy every day and has bonded with so many staff there (even though they don't specifically work in her room). I had viewed other nurseries and Green Park stands out as being organised, reliable and clean. Worth mentioning that they have been so reliable during lockdown/these uncertain times to allow key workers to continue. They were quick in communicating to us the new procedure changes and gave us such peace of mind. Thank you.

Overall Experience
I’m so happy we were able to send our daughter to Green Park! She has been in a nursery setting since she was 4-months-old and this has been the best thing for her. She is thriving, and the nursery supports her development in every way possible. She comes home every day full of stories and very tired!

She is attending nursery at the moment, and whilst the team are ‘only’ providing childcare, she is continuing to learn and advance and is getting. So much more than ‘just’ care. I can’t thank the team enough, and she loves all the staff at the nursery.

Overall Experience

My daughter started attending Green Park Nursery in January at 10 months old, and although I have been worried about leaving her, she has settled in amazingly with all of the help and reassurance from the staff in the Caterpillar room. My daughter is learning new things every day and thriving under the care of the team at Green Park. The staff have also taken into consideration all of her needs and follow the routine she is in at home. We love this nursery!

Overall Experience

The staff are very caring and diligent. The children are always entertained and active. My toddler has a fantastic time there every day. I was worried about my baby as it was his first time at nursery but the staff have been very patient and loving and he has settled in very well. The menus are healthy, varied and thoroughly appetising. Thank you, Green Park nursery!

Review from Amy (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little one has now been attending Green Park one day a week since July 2019, starting in the Caterpillar Room and has now moved up to the Ladybird Room.

All staff are extremely friendly, professional and polite, who are always very happy to help and nothing is too much. We cloth nappy and I breastfeed and this has been accommodated happily and comfortably. They were all very helpful and understanding when our little one was starting and they understand how hard it is to leave your child and make the process and transition smooth. The food provided is well balanced and nutritious, and there is a wide range of activities provided for the children to enjoy. We also get pictures at the end of the day to show us what our little one has been up to. My little one is happy here and enjoys nursery and we’re so pleased we picked this nursery!

Review from W Y (Mother of Child) published on 11 November 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter (2-years-old) has a very good relationship with all of the staff. She copy's and learns the communication, a lot from her key person and also other staff. She plays very well inside and outside, each day she wants to say bye-bye to the ladybird, and the traffic lights in different rooms. Eat good, play good, talk a lot, which lets me be relieved/assured about her. I think this is due to the kind staff and good management in the nursery. Thanks!

Overall Experience
My daughter has just started in the baby room and she has grown in so much confidence. I was a little worried that she wouldn’t settle as she was only 6 months when we joined the nursery but seeing her thrive has really put me at ease. The staff are lovely and super friendly when I arrive to come and collect. Me and my daughter's mum are so happy with

Green Park Day Nursery.

Review from N F (Mother of Child) published on 5 November 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Our daughter is 1 year old and has been with Green Park nursery for over 5 months. We are very pleased with the services and level of care so far. She enjoys being here and had lots of fun during the daily activities.
The carers seem to enjoy what they do and always tell us what she has been up to.

A big reason for choosing this nursery is also the working hours being 7.30 until 18:30. We do not have to worry about getting there in time for pick up.

My son has been attending the Ladybird room for a year now and he loves it there, the activities they lay out are amazing and my son gains a lot of learning through his play. The handover at the end of the day is brilliant and always informative. I would highly recommend this nursery.

My niece attends the nursery and it's just amazing. The activities set up in the morning are very detailed and she loves it. For a 2-year-old she is very advanced and I believe this is because of the education and care of all the amazing staff.

My little girl has a lovely time at nursery. She is still a baby and the staff are very caring and nothing is too much. The environments are age appropriate and fun. Good communication between staff and management. Best nursery and completely trust all staff with caring for my baby. Would highly recommend.

I would be likely to recommend the nursery when asked. We have enjoyed many years here.

Only cause for concern would be the cleanliness of the toilets on occasions.

Reply from Mandy Cooper, Nursery Manager at Green Park Day Nursery (Reading)

Thank you for your review, I am pleased that you have enjoyed many years at the nursery. I apologise for the experience you have had with the cleanliness of the toilets, we have recently employed a second domestic assistant at the nursery to cover key points during the day to ensure hygiene...
