The Old Station Nursery Faringdon

I am very happy for my son to be in this nursery - he is confident and happy to go and gets to do lots of activities that I wouldn't set up for him at home. There isn't a lot of staff turnover which makes me confident that it's good for them too, and happy staff are more likely to look after my son well. The nursery has done really well accommodating my son's extra care needs after an accident. The office team are always helpful and prompt in communication. I would 100% recommend.

I can only say lovely things about this nursery, but my 2 year old daughter has the best compliment of all, when it's a nursery day, she states it's "a happy day!", which says it all for me. The staff really are fantastic with her, giving lots of care and attention, including effort into improving her education and everyday skills.

I couldn't recommend this nursery more. We've already noticed such lovely changes in our son since attending. He has learnt so much. The team are so kind and caring, and really helped me feel at ease leaving him- which means a lot as I was quite anxious about it at first. It's made such a difference knowing he's so happy and well looked after. I feel like my son leaves for the day truly nurtured and enriched.

Old station is such a very good nursery. My daughter started in 2023 September and the team have been amazing. The staff is so patient and lovely. I highly recommend Old station Faringdon. The way my daughter loves going to nursery gives me alot of joy that she is in safe hands

Amazing nursery, lovely staff, my daughter loves her key worker. Very supportive company. Would like more updates on the app that's all. No other faults, much better than other nurseries I've viewed.

Staff in the rooms are good, our son enjoys nursery and they seem to interact well with the kids. Activities until recently were limited but seem better recently. The rooms are well set up and food is pretty good. Instances like unexplained bruises or soiled underwear are low, albeit not zero. Communication is poor. We get told things with short notice that need our input, phones aren't answered and we don't get called back and depth of information at handover or through app or through emails is low compared to what we've seen from friends, even within the same chain. Recently this has gotten a bit better and we received meaningful information about development progress for the second time in 3 years recently and other messages with more helpful content too around what is going on day to day as well as a bit during handover so there are signs that this is improving so we shall see. If you attend all your sessions, this is a cheaper nursery than others nearby.

Our son has been at nursery since May 2023 and has recently moved to the toddler room. The staff are kind and friendly, and we have been really impressed with the nursery as a whole! During his time in the baby room, our son was always greeted with warmth and affection. Our son has recently had settling-in days to help him transition from the baby room to toddlers which has also helped us to adapt to the new environment and routine. There is so much care and thought put into different activities for the children and a genuine enthusiasm amongst the staff for festive occasions! This engagement makes time at nursery fun for the children. Our son has grown in confidence and flourished whilst in the baby room! We are confident this will continue now he has moved to toddlers.

The Old Station Nursery Faringdon is such a wonderful, happy, caring place. When our daughter joined last year, we can't believe how many stimulating and fun activities the staff placed into her day. I love the personal touch they give at feedback at the end of the day; you really feel that they have been part of your child's day. They even send you photos throughout the day so you don't miss those wonderful learning moments. I can't thank the manager and her team enough for giving our daughter such a great learning journey so far, and we look forward to the next year as she soon moves into preschool.

My daughter has been in all 3 rooms provided for babies, toddlers, and preschool and has had an enjoyable experience throughout. All the staff has been friendly and helpful when needed.

Having found myself becoming a full-time parent again having my granddaughter given to me by social services at 11 months old and being in full-time employment I needed a nursery urgently. I phoned around in total panic and found little availability at first. Then I spoke to The Old Station Nursery and a certain member of staff was wonderful, so caring, and supportive at a very stressful time. Within a week we had our granddaughter in the baby unit and the love and care for her and myself, I will always be truly grateful to all the great staff at the Nursery. Now nearly 3 years old, a very happy healthy little girl so our thanks are ongoing to all the staff!

The nursery is so adaptable and helpful! The staff are so friendly and the children love them. The twins have extra needs, and these are met without question by the staff. The SEN lead takes great care of them and always keeps me up to date. Their key worker is so brilliant with them too. Nothing is too much for the staff to accommodate when it comes to the children.

My daughter has a lovely time at The Old Station Nursery Faringdonn. The staff are fab and the food and activities varied. A really nice environment for young people. Management is flexible and tries to accommodate occasional requests for extra hours, etc. Feel happy leaving my daughter here.

Great nursery, all of the staff members in the baby room are fantastic and have a great bond with our son, he loves coming here and we look forward to enrolling our daughter here when she is old enough!

Thank you so much.

My baby is 9 months old and has settled so well over his first two months at The Old Station Faringdon. We get fantastic updates, and I love to see the photos of him playing each day, so I can know he’s happy and enjoying himself. We also get great feedback at pick-up to know what he’s been up to and how he got on, which helps to continue his routine at home, like naps and feeds. The staff know him very well already and are always accommodating if I update them on changes to his sleep patterns, bottle feeds, etc. It is a great set-up, with everything he needs to play, learn and explore as he’s just started standing, so they support him in learning each new skill and follow his lead, which is so important.

Absolutely fantastic nursery! Our son attends the baby room, and he adores it. The staff are so friendly, kind and helpful. We feel that our son's overall development has really blossomed, and that is down to attending nursery. The amount of activities that they get up to is great, and the wide variety of meals and snacks throughout the day is brilliant. We would highly recommend The Old Station Nursery Faringdon.

New to the nursery as of February 24. We have had a good experience so far, all the staff seem very friendly and helpful. Her key person is exceptionally fantastic. Great experience and a nice environment.

Our daughter has been attending this nursery for just over a year. She has come leaps and bounds since attending and it has been wonderful watching her confidence grow. I feel this nursery is very nurturing and the staff are kind and caring. They have put on some really well-thought-out events which we as a family have also been able to attend which has been so lovely. We couldn’t have asked for a better nursery for our daughter. Highly recommend.

We have been so delighted with the nursery since our daughter started at the age of 9 months. She is now two and thriving under the care of the wonderful team. Everyone is so kind and affectionate towards her, it's like she has another family. It's clear that the nursery staff really care about the children and go out of their way to ensure their happiness and well-being. My daughter has learned so much and loves all the activities, especially messy play. I've also been very happy to see that the children get plenty of time outside, even in winter.

A phenomenal group of people who work so hard looking after our little people. We’ve never had an issue with The Old Station Nursery Faringdon, we’ve always found them to be helpful, supportive and friendly. They’ve gone above and beyond for the extra help our little girl needed and she waltzes in every morning with barely a look behind. Her key worker understands her brilliantly and genuinely cares about her. We’re so lucky to have found a place where we feel so comfortable and homely.
