The Old School House Kindergarten Reviews (7)
Over all time The Old School House Kindergarten has 7 reviews.
Our daughter loved her time at The Old School House Kindergarten. They have supported her through every step of her journey. The relationships that the staff build with the children build trust and set them up perfectly for school. Through Covid they were understanding and practical, realising the pressures that parents were under and helping us as needed. We've even borrowed some of the recipes for cooking at home! I recommend it to anyone.
Thank you for your lovely review! We are glad to hear that your daughter had such a wonderful experience at The Old School House Kindergarten and that our staff supported her journey so well. Your recommendation means a lot, and we're glad to have been of help during challenging times.
The outside space at the nursery is lovely with lots of different things to explore. This was always a favourite for my children.
The activities the children part take in are also brilliant and really encourage a lot of different skills.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're truly glad to have been a part of your children's growth and development journey at The Old School House. It's wonderful to know that they've become confident, happy, and smart individuals. We're grateful for your recognition of our staff's dedication, the...
I would recommend this setting to anyone. My eldest went here 7 years ago and absolutely loved it and my youngest is just about to leave and is upset about this. The staff are amazing and the children learn a lot from them all. I know my children learn so much from being there, so thank you, you will all be missed.
Thank you for the lovely review! We're truly grateful for the trust you've placed in us over the years and for allowing both of your children to be a part of our nursery. We will miss them too, and we wish them all the best in their future endeavours!
I couldn't have asked for a better place to send my kids.
Thank you for your lovely review. We're thrilled to have been a part of your children's journey for seven years and are grateful for your trust in our management and team.
Both my daughters have/are attending the setting. As a parent, I find all the staff to be so helpful, kind and supportive. Both my girls have been extremely happy and I really feel that they are given such care and attention. My eldest left last year and was so well prepared for school when she left. My youngest is coming on leaps and bounds with her talking, counting and physical skills. It is lovely, as a parent, to know that your children are going to be so well taken care of when you leave them for the day.
Thank you for the lovely review! We are delighted that both of your daughters have had such positive experiences at our nursery, feeling happy, cared for, and supported, and we're glad to have played a part in preparing your eldest for school while seeing your youngest make significant progress.
My daughter loves going to this nursery. She is very happy and feels safe. This is my second child attending this nursery and I could not be happier with the care and communication they have always provided.
Thank you for this lovely review! We are glad to hear that your daughters loves their time at our nursery.
We are so happy with The Old School House Kindergarten. The staff are incredible and the progression that we are seeing with our son from his time at nursery is just amazing. The facilities are great, we get regular updates and our son gets involved with a wide variety of activities throughout the day. Our son loves to come to nursery and we know that we are leaving him in a safe and happy environment. We really couldn’t recommend The Old School House anymore.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so glad to hear that your little one is enjoying their time at the nursery.
