I am so grateful to the whole team at The Avenues who have worked tirelessly to help settle my baby into nursery over the past 10 weeks.
Our key worker has been truly fantastic with limitless patience and kindness and a real commitment to connecting with and settling my son. However he has also been supported by the entire team who work so harmoniously and diligently together, always greeting my sobbing child with huge smiles and good mornings at each challenging drop off through out his settling period.
I have been blown away by the skills, expertise and boundless energy of the team.
Thankyou SO much!!
We're delighted that your little one is settling in well, and it's wonderful to know that the care, patience, and dedication of our team - and your...
Both of my children love this nursery and are very happy at drop off, often going to hug the staff or other children. The place is always clean and both children love the food that is cooked on site there. The staff are fantastic and friendly and when I pick up my children they've always had a great day. My daughter even blows kisses for the staff in the caterpillars room so she definitely likes them all!
We are delighted to read that both of your children are happy at our nursery and that they arrive so confidently at drop-off. The team will be pleased to know that the meals and care they provide help make each day a positive experience for your family.
I couldn't be happier that my child attends this nursery. He loves going and is always so happy to arrive , he enjoys all the activity's and has learnt so much from being there. I always knew this is where I wanted him to go after my eldest son attended this nursery and he loved it just as much. All the staff are so welcoming and always happy to help with any concerns. They let me know daily what he has been doing and he gets excited to tell me about his day.
We're delighted to read that your child is happy at nursery and enjoys the activities and learning experiences. It means so much to us that you chose us again for your younger child, and we're pleased you feel well supported and kept informed each day.
I couldn't be happier with my experience at this nursery. From the very beginning it has felt like so much more than childcare.
The management team, Zoe and Jodie, are exceptional. They are warm, approachable and incredibly dedicated, and this shines through in every part of the nursery. Their attention to detail and genuine care create such a nurturing, well-run environment.
My child's keyworker, Faye, has been amazing. She knows my child on such a personal level - their personality, interests and needs - which gives me complete peace of mind. The bond they've built is truly special.
All members of staff are fantastic and consistently go above and beyond. The learning is excellent, with Montessori-trained teachers who prepare children beautifully for school while keeping learning fun and engaging.
Most importantly, my child is happy, confident and thriving here. I feel incredibly lucky and would highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you for such a wonderful review. We are so pleased to read that your child is happy and confident, and that you feel supported by the team. It means a great deal to know our care, learning approach, and nurturing environment are making a positive difference. Thank you for your recommendation.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough, all the staff are amazing & very kind. Both of my children have been to this nursery, and they loved it! The staff provide a warm and nurturing environment, and there are always lots of engaging, fun activities out for the children to do. When my youngest started, the staff took the time to reassure me and put my mind at ease. I always know when I drop him off that he is in safe hands, and the communication with the staff is very good.
It is wonderful to read that both of your children have enjoyed their time at our nursery. The team works hard to create a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, happy, and engaged. We are especially pleased to read that we were able to support and reassure you when your youngest...
My son has been attending The Avenues Nursery for 2.5 years, and my daughter has recently just started. The nursery itself is always bright and clean with so many different engaging tough treys and activities laid out for the children to interact with. The staff are there to welcome you at the door and are very friendly and helpful. My son always comes home and tells us all about his fun day, and we can't wait for our daughter to start doing the same.
We are delighted to read how your son enjoys his time with us and loves sharing what he's been up to. It is lovely to know that you have found the nursery so welcoming and engaging, and we are excited to see your daughter start making her own happy memories here, too!

We have absolutely loved our experience at The Avenues since our daughter joined in March. The staff are so friendly and attentive and always have detailed feedback to share about our daughter at pick up each day - from key development milestones to funny anecdotes. My daughter always seems happy and it feels like walking in to family. The room is always tidy and well organised with a range of fun activities for the babies to do.

The team at The Avenues have taken the upmost care and passion when it has come to our little boys development on his journey through Nursery. The staff all make so much effort directly with the children and it has really shows and will have really helped him become ready for his first steps at Primary School.
Thank you for your lovely words. We're so pleased to hear how much the team's care and effort have supported your son's development and prepared him for his next big step into primary school. We'll all miss him and wish him the very best!
My son has attended for the last 18 months and I have nothing but positive things to say about The Avenues nursery. The staff are lovely, genuine and so clearly really care for the children. They put so much effort into making the nursery a lovely, educational and exciting place for their students and are constantly introducing new resources and activities. In the run up to starting school they've done a great job of nurturing independence and helping develop the skills that will set them up so well for school. The relationships my son has built with the teachers, support staff and students are a testament to the lovely culture of the nursery has established. I would highly recommended The Avenues.

I have had one daughter go through this nursery and one daughter who is still attending and both have loved it. The warm, friendly staff create such an awesome environment for the children to develop. I can't speak highly enough of the place.
Thank you so much for reviewing our nursery. We're so pleased to read that both your daughters have enjoyed their time with us. It's so rewarding to know that our environment has made such a positive impact.
The team provide excellent communication, keeping me updated on my child's growth and the qualified teacher observations truly highlight my child's language development, understanding and creative skills. My child has come home to tell me all about his daily adventures and I see his confidence grow because of the outstanding efforts the team put in.
I highly recommend this nursery to any parent seeking a supportive and engaging place for their child to learn and thrive.
We're so happy to read how much your little one enjoys spending time with us and that our team's care, communication, and dedication are making a real difference - it's a joy to watch children's confidence and creativity grow. Thank you for recommending our nursery.
Again I've been blown away by the creative and meaningful activities provided and the level of care taken to teach the children about the world and themselves. I have worked in the childcare sector for many years and have seen many settings and this is one of the very nicest all-round that I have come across. Thank you The Avenues - my mum guilt is lessened !
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're thrilled your son is enjoying his time here and that our team's care and creative approach have made a difference. It's wonderful to know he feels happy and well-rested each day, and that our environment meets the high standards you've seen across the...
I only have good things to say about this nursery. My child has settled in so well, and has been welcomed with open arms. I feel very comfortable dropping her off each day, I know she is being well cared for, loved and educated well. They do such wonderful activities each day, and my child looks forward to going there each day. The staff are super helpful and very supportive of parents, I couldn't ask for a better team. I will be sad to see the day when my child is too old to go! We love it!

We're passionate about what we do, and it's so rewarding to hear that we've positively impacted your family.
It will be a sad day when my daughter grows too big and has to fly the nest there and start primary school. Thank you for all you do!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! It is certainly heart-warming to hear that your daughter thrives in our nurturing environment. The team will be so pleased to read your review about the atmosphere they have created.
A nursery is a hard thing to run, and for the 1-3 year olds, these guys do it wonderfully. You feel it from the atmosphere when you walk in, full of calm, happy and confident kids. My kid is always in a good mood when arriving and leaving. There are always fascinating activities laid out full of natural materials, and sensory, and learning opportunities for the toddlers to explore. Staff are always friendly and welcoming.
This is wonderful to read; thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We work really hard to provide a nurturing and happy environment with a range of activities, so we are pleased that you are satisfied with our provision and that your child is settled well in our care.
The Avenues is a lovely nursery that is very welcoming with friendly staff. The rooms are bright and engaging, with enough space for the children to play and explore. My daughter has grown in confidence since attending and it has been a pleasure to see her so excited when she talks about the things she is learning. The staff are always on hand and extremely approachable. Highly recommend this great nursery!
Thank you for sharing your experience and recommending our nursery. We are so pleased to read that you are pleased with our setting and that your daughter is happy.
Staff are very engaged and caring and I feel confident my children are well cared for. I am happy with how my boys have developed since joining the nursery and believe the team are a great support and takes a true interest in their developmental needs.
It's wonderful seeing them develop and have such a good time.
Always welcoming and very helpful staff. My child has developed a lot in her speech. He loves to come to the nursery.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review, it means a lot.
My daughter has flourished since starting here almost a year ago. Her confidence has grown massively and I put that down to her coming to The Avenues.
Thank you, that's really important for the team to hear. We'll be sure to pass this on to them.
