My child joined the nursery when he was 5 months old and the staff have all been amazing with him.

The nursery staff have been very welcoming and did their best for my son to have a smooth settle in the nursery. They have been attentive and supportive and ensured it was a great environment for him. He is now well settled and leaves with smiles at the end of the day.

My granddaughter has just gone on to Reception at a local school after having been at Harpenden Day Nursery since she was a baby. A naturally cautious child, I have seen her flower into a confident, aware and sparky pre-schooler under the expert care of the team at Harpenden Day Nursery. Without such a superb environment - both fun and educational - in which to grow up, I am certain that the transition into school would have been more difficult. I loved hearing my granddaughter's stories of what she got up to at nursery, and the extremely proactive nature of drop-offs and handovers meant that we were always fully aware of her progress and of any issues. We still cook together some of the recipes from nursery recipe cards, a favourite being pizza pinwheels! I know she will want to pay you all a visit at some stage! Thank you once again for being such an outstanding team, and I wish Harpenden Day Nursery all the very best for the future.
I have had 2 children at this nursery, 1 still being there and I honestly wouldn't have wanted them to be anywhere else. The staff, environment and overall nursery is perfect for us.
