My now 4 year old has been attending this nursery since before he was 3 and I cannot recommend them enough. The staff are very well trained, attentive and caring. My son has formed such lovely bonds with them, and they have helped us, as parents, a lot. From toilet training to learning letters, table manners or emotional regulation...I cannot thank them enough! He's made many friends there and has started enjoying new foods. Also...my child would always come home absolutely knackered, their days were always full of fun things to do and learn:)
If you want a place for your child to learn through exploration, have the freedom to be themselves and grow in confidence, then I would highly recommend Chiltern Hills.
The nursery is outstanding. My daughter loves going and has made such great improvement in her development, her language skills, and has enjoyed all the outdoor activities. The nursery staff are informative and helpful, and keeps me aware of the different things my daughter is doing at the nursery. I'm always excited to receive the pictures and emails they send weekly.
Thank you for your review. We are delighted to know that our partnership with parents is working for you as we know that children thrive best when put at the heart of decision making by the adults around them.
This is a great nursery, we couldn't recommend it more. The staff are lovely and nurturing, our son thrived here. We would fully recommend this nursery to anyone, their care and support is outstanding.
The nursery has been brilliant with the concerns about my child. They have always been happy to discuss things with me. Everyone is so lovely and so kind too. I will truly miss chatting and seeing everyone most days.
Thank you for your feedback. We love helping our children and their families. As the well-known proverb says "It takes a village to raise a child".
Our son spent his pre-school year at Chiltern Hills and it has been brilliant for him. He has grown in confidence and has developed so much socially and academically, and is now ready to start school. The staff is what sets this nursery apart. Most have been there for many years, and all of them care a great deal about the children and spend a lot of time working with them to develop their interests and skills. It is a very special place and I would recommend it unreservedly.
Thank you for your review. Our staff certainly are the secret to our success. Their knowledge, professionalism and tireless work ethic ensure that the happiness and learning of each unique child is maximised.
This is an amazing nursery that has been perfect for our son. We were looking to move him from a different nursery for his preschool year so visited lots and almost gave up then we came across Chiltern Hills and knew instantly it was the one. It is a 15-minute drive from home and so worth it. The staff are all incredible, most of them have been there for years and years and care very deeply about the children. They do such a range of activities as well as a gentle introduction to phonics etc. It is all well-planned and purposeful which differs greatly from our experience elsewhere. Our son has developed so much thanks to this nursery. It seems very rare to find a high-quality preschool that does 8 AM - 6 PM all year round but this is it!
Thank you very much for your kind words. Partnership with parents is such an important aspect of supporting children and we appreciate the close working together to develop a unique, personalised curriculum pathway for each child that helps them reach their potential. Our 2024 Outstanding Ofsted report verifies this.
This nursery has been amazing for our daughter from day one. The care and attention they give to each child is obvious. My daughter loves it and also has developed massively while attending. Overall we have never regretted choosing this nursery and look forward to our younger daughter joining.
The fantastic nursery would highly recommend my daughter has enjoyed her time here and learned and grown in confidence they helped with potty training and so many different skills she also loved all the food too! Thank you so much to all of the staff will always recommend.
Thank you for your review. Helping your child to be strong and independent emotionally and physically is just as important to us as supporting their learning skills. Our Ofsted grading attests to this too.
With lots of outings to the park, seeing goats to exploring outdoors, there have been lots of great memories made.
It's lovely that the nursery organise regular trips so that parents and guardians can meet and share some experiences together.
Thank you for your review. We are delighted that our ever-evolving series of evening and weekend events for our children and their families to meet and share time together are appreciated.
I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. The entire team's passion and dedication to early years development shines through in all they do. The teaching staff are very professional with a relaxed, caring, and friendly approach. The weekly topics and daily activities are very thoughtful with plenty of outdoor time. A super nursery with very high standards of care.
Thank you very much for your review. We are so lucky to have a team of passionate and dedicated staff at nursery who know your child well and can therefore create a unique learning pathway, full of exciting new learning experiences that tap into that innate desire for learning.
Staff are responsible, caring, and attuned to a child's needs.
Thank you for your review. We also are thrilled to see so many of the children who attend our nursery soar to wonderful heights of development with fabulous independence and abilities to problem solve - skills that they will hopefully have for life.
Both my children attend Chiltern Hills Montessori Nursery and I couldn't recommend them enough. My children love attending the nursery thanks to the staff who go above and beyond. The staff have been extremely supportive and caring and it's been wonderful to see them both thrive.
Thank you for your review. We know how important it is for a child to feel loved and cherished. These form the building blocks on which all learning depends.
Amazing staff, lots for the kids to explore and learn. Our child will miss each one of you very much! Thanks for making it a great learning experience for our little one. Will recommend it to friends and family.
Thank you for your review. Our Montessori curriculum provides such a great structure for learning, enabling us to ensure that learning is perfect for each unique child, from those with learning barriers to our highly able and gifted individuals.
Excellent guidance and support for my son. All staff were patient, helpful, and dedicated to his best development. Thank you for providing a safe and healthy environment and I wish you all the best!
Thank you very much for your review. Our stable and knowledgeable team of staff are our most important resource. They work tirelessly to ensure your child thrives in our nursery.
All nursery staff have been fantastic with our son. He's happy to go to nursery and happy when he returns home each day. He's made good friends and has made excellent progress in his development. We are very happy with the care he has received.
Thank you for your review. We know that surrounding a child and their family with a sense of community is so important. We value our partnership with our families - children reach their potential better when we support them together.
A wonderful nursery where children can learn and explore. My girls love the team and feel happy every day they are there. The nursery was very accommodating when I was in desperate need of childcare and went above and beyond to help.
Thank you for your kind words. We monitor how much laughter there is as we know that happy children are learning children!
My child first started at the POD and has transitioned to TDS. I can not thank the team enough for the ongoing care they provide to my daughter. She loves all the staff and huge shout out to the POD room manager as she goes above and beyond for the kids. The TDS team are also very polite, friendly and attentive. I can’t recommend this nursery enough and am so glad that someone recommended it to me! As this is not my closest nursery to home. But worth the travel!
Thank you very much for your review. Our wonderful team of staff have been hand-picked to ensure both knowledgeable experience and enthusiastic commitment to supporting the children and families at our nursery. Together with a powerful partnership with parents this provides the winning formula to enable our capable children to reach their potential.
I'm very happy with this nursery. The staff offer a friendly, caring approach to looking after my son. The daily activities help to develop my son’s learning, as well as lots of free playtime. My son is always happy to be dropped off and is always excited for his day at nursery.
Thank you very much for your review! We carefully monitor the progress of every child, thus creating a unique learning pathway to enable each child to enjoy new learning each and every day and reach their potential by the time they move on to the next step of their learning journey.
We’ve had a wonderful experience at the nursery, my daughter settled in very quickly and loved going in. I would highly recommend this nursery, the staff are so friendly, provided regular feedback and are very approachable.
Thank you for your review. We aim to make our nursery irresistible to children through rigorous planning of our activities, employing staff who are highly tuned in to the needs of each individual child, and developing strong partnerships with parents. This is a winning formula.
