Review from N H (Mother of Child) published on 7 November 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Applying for this nursery was the best decision we made. We viewed 6 nurseries in total last year while expecting and we had such a good feeling about Aristotots.
It's a shame we can't name individuals as I would really like to thank them for all their support throughout the process and now that our baby is there we have met more staff and they are all so wonderful! I was really anxious to have my baby looked after by someone else especially as we had got into a habit of contact naps, however, our key worker has been supportive both to my baby and myself!
To my surprise, they have put my baby down for naps every single day from day 1 which I thought would be impossible. The support they have given has truly made a difference to how I feel about leaving my baby with them and I know we made the right choice to select this fabulous nursery.

So grateful to the management team and caregivers, you have made the biggest difference to this part of my motherhood journey! Thank you!

The staff at Aristotots are fantastic and my daughter loves attending the nursery.

She has recently moved into her final year and their preparation for school has been fantastic. The combination of fun with learning is great and the confidence my daughter has gained has been noticeable since attending.

Overall Experience

I would highly recommend Aristotots to anyone looking for a friendly nurturing educational setting for their child. My son started at 1 year old and is now 2.5 years old. He's learned so much since being there and always seems happy to go off and play with the carers and his peers. The nursery is clean and has great toys and play areas. I feel confident he is being cared for and supported by all the lovely staff there. I will be very sad when he eventually needs to leave for school.

Overall Experience

Moving our son to Aristotots from another nursery where we had a negative experience was a decision filled with anxiety. However, after 15 months at Aristotots, it has proven to be the best decision we could have made. Every interaction with the staff, at every level, has been incredibly positive. Our son has truly flourished under the care of his amazing key workers and within the fantastic approach to childcare provided by Aristotots. The environment created here is truly wonderful and nurturing. While we will be sad to leave in September, we feel incredibly fortunate to have been part of the Aristotots community. Thank you for providing such a fantastic preschool experience for our son.

Reply from Jennifer Stephens, Manager at Aristotots Nursery School (MK)

Thank you so much for your kind review, we are so glad your family joined us and your little one has made so many friends and enjoys his time with the staff. We will be very sad to see you leave in September for school, but we know your little one will be amazing on his next journey.

Review from Marina B (Mother of Child) published on 8 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Hello, I am the mother of a little boy who attends this beautiful and clean nursery, as in there I feel harmony and a lot of dedication. Honestly, I am very satisfied with the nursery because I am sure that my child feels very good there and safe, I like that they have a very good program, different activities, he is fed and changed on time and he likes it very much, happy and excited when I pick him up from the kindergarten. When the child comes home, he is much calmer, he plays and always uses some new words and expressions with sounds from the nursery, I am honestly amazed how a child can learn so quickly, it can be seen that he learns a lot of new things there. I am also delighted with the Tapestry application, where I always see pictures of my child and see what he is doing there, useful information, you can see that the staff is very attentive to each child. A big thank you to all the staff who work there for their patience, love, passion for the children and the hard work they do

My daughter has been attending Aristo Tots MK since she was 11 months old, starting off in the Caterpillar group. She is now 3 years old and in Upper Preschool. My daughter enjoys going here and is thriving. The staff are all lovely and very caring, many having been working here for years. The on-site kitchen/catering is very good, my daughter enjoys the fresh home-cooked meals. We are very happy with Aristo Tots.

We absolutely love Aristotots! Our daughter started in June 2022 and we knew from visiting the setting that she was going to be so well looked after! She absolutely loves her days at nursery and we love the fantastic pictures we receive each week to show what she has been up to! The setting always looks so inviting and welcoming and every staff member you meet is smiley and friendly! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Aristotots to our friends and family!

Overall Experience

My eldest son attended the nursery from age 2 to 4 and he is 9 now. We loved the setting, the staff and how well he was looked after so much that it was the only place our younger son was going! He is now thriving there also. The staff support the children in their development, are encouraging and update us regularly on their daily activities. My son is so happy there and he is very sad to be leaving there this year to go on to school. He has been through all of the areas as he started at 7 months old and is now nearly 5 years old! I couldn't recommend this nursery enough and have encouraged a few of our friends to attend this nursery also and they too are very happy. The variety of food that they are given is great and he regularly tries new foods there. They really focus on all aspects of the children health and well-being. I cannot fault them, great team!

Reply from Jennifer Stephens, Manager at Aristotots Nursery School (MK)

Thank you for your kind words, it has been a pleasure looking after both your boys and we will be so sad to see you leave for school this year.

Overall Experience

Aristotots Nursery is amazing! I changed nurseries for my little girl after moving house and I couldn't fault Aristotots at all. They always go above and beyond! Great communication between myself and all staff. Play equipment is always clean and a great range of toys out throughout the day. You can see the management really value their staff - this reflects from them - always positive, happy and willing to help. My child is happy and content throughout their time there, and I can see the joy Aristotots gives them when they come home talking about all the exciting things they have done. My little girl has progressed in all areas of learning, which is lovely to see. I couldn't recommend Aristotots enough! Fantastic all round! Thank you always to the manager and her amazing team!

My daughter loves attending Aristotots. The care and attention she receives from all the caregivers is second to none. Seeing her development and how she demonstrates and continues her learning at home is really lovely. The joy on her face when we drop her off and pick her up relays how much she enjoys her time there.

Overall Experience

My little boy has been attending for over a year now and I can not fault the care he has received, it's such a warm, inviting and caring nursery where the staff love and care for your children like they are their own, it's not just a job for them there is genuine care. The managers are so hands-on as well and that's when you know it's the right one and its not just a business for them, he has progressed so much and I especially like the independence they give the children in learning skills, themed activities each week making it fun for the children to learn every day. He comes out of nursery happy and excited, it's a lovely setting with loads of outdoor space. The food menu has a large variety of balanced nutrition and they encourage the children to try different things which is fantastic. They update weekly with photos and communicate well if needed. Can't thank all the staff enough especially two members of staff in particular who do such an amazing job and are appreciated so much!

Review from Kavita P (Mother of Child) published on 24 February 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been at Aristotots MK since September 2022 and is now 20 months old. The nursery staff have been amazing with her, especially her key worker. She loves going into nursery and settled down very quickly. They do so many different activities and always share pictures of her on the online learning portal for us as parents to see. They have so many different rooms for each age group including a separate sleeping room. She is now moving up to the bigger class and she loves playing in the role-play room. She has really developed so much since being at Aristotots. We were previously at another nursery for a couple of months and were unhappy with the food as she has a dairy intolerance. Aristotots have been great with this and cater for all allergies and have a variety of freshly made hot meals, which has been very important for us. Thank you to all the nursery teachers for looking after our wonderful little girl.

Overall Experience

This is an outstanding nursery. Our son has been attending for two months now, and the staff show a genuine joy and care for him. He is very happy upon seeing any of his carers, and they are equally happy to see him. The nursery communicates well and is extremely professional. That said, it is clear that it is not just a business for them, but that they have a true passion for caring for, teaching, and creatively engaging children. They have new themed activities, toys, songs, books, etc each week for the children (even the little ones), which ensures that the children are engaged and given room to explore and grow. It is all one could hope for in a nursery and staff. Highly recommend, and ever so grateful.

Thank you for your kind words, we are so happy you have chosen Aristo-Tots for your little one's journey. We look forward to seeing his smiley face each day and cannot wait to see him grow and develop.

Can’t fault our experience with Aristotots at all, the staff and environment are both absolutely fantastic.
Our daughter has been attending since she was 6-months-old and has formed some wonderful relationships with both carers and other children. She has so much fun every day, the thought that goes into the learning activities and development as a whole is brilliant. Aristotots has really supported our daughter's growth and we are so grateful.

Thank you, Aristotots team.

Review from Emma M (Mother of Child) published on 25 November 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

After having our daughter in the pandemic, we then had the hard task of finding a suitable nursery. After visiting several more than I was expecting to, as for one reason or another the other places we considered just didn’t tick all the boxes as to what my husband and I were looking for. We met with the Nursery Manager and within seconds of attending, thought that “this is the one”. From the extensive space at the nursery and “free flow” inside and out. We could see how children wouldn’t feel restricted. It’s not a new nursery, yet the interior was warm and friendly, and all the equipment and furniture is well looked after. There is longevity within the team, many of them have been there for years and again I could feel the experience within the setting and that they are genuinely passionate about providing the best care. Our daughter has been going since April 2021 and she could not be happier! She rarely even looks back at me as the nursery door opens in the morning.

Overall Experience

Aristotots has seen our first through from 1 year old up until preschool. She’s very happy there and has thrived, with a brilliant keyworker that she has a great bond with. Their attitude towards covid has made me feel safe and able to send her there despite the pandemic too. Our second has just started and is settled well. I don’t have any doubts about the staff that look after her in the baby room. They are very understanding (I am one of those mums that calls every day to check she is ok!). But I am always met with a helpful, welcoming member of staff to answer my questions. Both children will spend their time here until school and I trust they will be looked after and supported. The only thing I would say could be improved is the menu as the evening/tea options don’t seem as nutritious/varied. I’d definitely recommend Aristotots.

Overall Experience

All 3 of my children have attended Aristotots. The staff have been the same with some new faces over the last 8 plus years which in itself is a good sign in my books, clearly shows good management and care of their staff. All of my children loved and love being at nursery with the manager and her team. My daughter is profoundly deaf and they have been a huge support to me over the years and work closely with my daughter's teacher of the deaf and speech and language. They are working to learn sign language to help my daughter and nothing is ever too much trouble. Such a loving, flexible, hardworking, caring team there. I know my children have been and are in safe response hands. Honestly can not thank them or speak of them highly enough.

What can I say…having sent my son to Aristo tots since he was 9 months old I cannot fault them for the care they have provided, he is now in his last year and has progressed so much thanks to all the amazing staff and the brilliant and creative activities to support in his learning. Having seen other nurseries Aristo tots is by far the best at providing that safe and welcoming environment not only for the child but also that reassurance for us as parents too. Thank you so much.
