The Orchard Children's Nursery

My eldest child has been attending the setting since January 2021 and we couldn’t be happier with the service we receive. He absolutely adores those that work there and he always comes home with a smile at the end of the day. My youngest child will be starting alongside his older brother in September 2022 and we wouldn’t have considered any other setting for their early years education and care. I thoroughly recommend the nursery and know that my child is in good hands.

My son finished nursery in July 2021 after attending the setting for nearly 3 years. The staff are fantastic and supported me and my son with transition, as he found this quite difficult. Staff are easily contacted via email or phone and are always available to help. You build a rapport with all staff members which is incredibly important and always lovely to be greeted with a smile. Brilliant nursery.

My daughter has attended the Orchard Nursery for just over a year joining at the age of two. In the year she has attended she has come on leaps and bounds, she has become more confident in playing with other children before she was shy and would sit on her own, her reading and writing skills have come a long way and she is now able to write several words as well as read a full book, and more importantly, she loves attending the nursery and adores her teachers.

Wonderful, small, family feel nursery with super caring staff. A great range of activities, outdoor play and extra curriculum for both babies and older children. Always kept updated and feel like they are really looked after.

Orchard nursery is a warm and nurturing environment. My son is 3 years old and started a few months ago. His speech, counting, confidence and overall abilities have come on a huge amount. I sent my son here because my daughter attended previously and she loved it. They have both made lifelong friends and I feel so grateful to have found this nursery. The staff are all so friendly and approachable!

My little girl started Nursery at 20 months. It was a little hard at first until she adapted, but step by step she started to like it. The changes in her behaviour started to appear after a few weeks. She is a loving child and very energetic, but because of the lockdown, I lived in fear that I could not give her the freedom and opportunity to grow up in an environment surrounded by loving and sociable people. This Nursery was the best choice I made. I found their highly qualified staff, who permanently take care of my child, pay a lot of attention to my little girl and have a lot of patience. The best part is when I go to take her home. They always answer my questions and tell me in detail how her day was at the Nursery. In the end, I would like to say a big "thank you" to all the staff!

My son's development has rapidly grown, all thanks to the staff at The Orchard Nursery. He can't wait to go to Nursery to see his friends, and comes home telling me things he has learnt during the day. I am pleased with the care he has received.

Both of our daughters have come to this nursery and couldn't have wished for better. The staff are fantastic, knowledgeable and so supportive. Our youngest never wants to come home. Food allergies have been handled so well that we have the utmost confidence in the team. Big thanks from us to the Orchard team, you are all super!

We could not have asked for a better nursery and would like to say a big thank you to all the team for being fantastic at their job. The nursery is like a home from home and we've got our youngest signed up to start too.

My son has attended Orchard for over a year now and I can honestly say, hand on heart, that it was the best decision I have ever made for him.

The staff are incredible, each and every member do a brilliant job of looking after the children and developing their learning.

It really is heart warming to see.

I can't praise this nursery enough.

Thank you Orchard:)

Both our boys have been full time at the nursery since they were 9 months old, and I can't believe that the oldest is now "in charge" of the little ones! As full time working parents it was really important to us that the boys were able to be together during the day, and not be in separate age rooms as they would have been at some of the larger, more 'corporate' nurseries. The fact that at Orchard the children are together all day is perfect. Additional benefits of this set up (although not ones we had thought about when the oldest started) is that you don't have the upheaval of moving between rooms and changing key worker, which some of my friends at other nurseries have found a bit stressful, and it means you have lovely well rounded children that can play with different age groups. The staff are supportive of each other and bring out the best in every child, which they achieve by knowing the children inside out rather than having a one size fits all approach. Under the managers supervision the nursery has exceeded our expectations in every way and the boys are very fortunate to have had such a first class experience which will set them up for all their future adventures. We really can't recommend this nursery highly enough.

I recommend this Nursery to anyone who's looking for experienced, professional staff. I'm actually going to be so sad come July 2016 when it's time to move on.

The staff at this nursery are wonderful and communication is excellent. They are all friendly and approachable and take utmost care to get to know our children, it is because of them that my daughter is as happy as she is. I wouldn't ever dream of taking my child anywhere else.
