The Old Station Nursery Faringdon

The nursery offers an amazing environment where building knowledge and great behaviours is highly visible. My grandson has benefitted so much from his time at the nursery and has grown in confidence and knowledge. I love the wide variety of events offered, giving the children a really diverse range of opportunities and I would highly recommend The Old Station Nursery! Thank you to the amazing team!

Our son has been at Old Station House for 9 months now and we are so impressed - the staff are kind, warm, friendly, and affectionate towards our son - they took time to get to know him well and to tailor activities and even meal times/schedules to him to make him comfortable and help him settle in. They are also kind and friendly to myself and my husband! They have a sensible settling-in program which helps new parents and children get used to a new environment and new routine. The meals are healthy, homemade, and varied. The activities are imaginative and varied. The festive program was so lovely and the staff seemed genuinely excited to make every festive period (we've experienced Halloween and Christmas so far) special for the children. The communication and updates on the app are well organised, regular and very much appreciated. We have watched our son flourish under the baby room's care - his language and cognition have improved so much and he has such confidence - thank you.

Overall a lovely nursery and the facilities and staff are great but communication has been really poor lately - being told a photographer is coming the morning that they are there and will only be there for the next few hours; Christmas card orders not taken; details of the Christmas party only sent the day before; no reply to emails and I think we only had two photographs the whole of last year. I fully appreciate that taking care of the children is more important than sending photos but it would be nice to feel a bit more engaged. The toddler room could do with a bit of a refresh but I understand that that is due to happen soon. With a bit of work on communication and engagement, it would be perfect.

Room staff are wonderful, going above and beyond. Lots of activities including trips to the park. Lovely facilities, including a library. However, staff retention gets steadily worse, and communication is poor, especially surrounding billing. Mistakes get made, but trying to get a sensible response, particularly from the billing team, is excruciating. At this point, I wouldn't recommend it to friends, I find trying to communicate with the setting too frustrating.

Our child has been in the baby room now for three months, and all my initial fears have been eradicated. She is loved and cared for so well by the baby room team; they always make such a happy big deal of seeing her in the mornings and waving her off in the evening. It’s the individual touch that makes it so special; she’s not just a number, and I thank all the baby room team for helping both the parents and baby to settle in so well!

Really happy with the care my daughter receives. She enjoys going there and has made good progress. We have, on occasion, had admin-related problems but that seems to have been resolved now. Our daughter loves her key worker so will be sad when she eventually moves up.

I have never felt happier or safer leaving my son in anyone else's care. The staff at Old Station Nursery love and care for him so well. The activities they do are fantastic! He loves the food and always has the best days when he goes!

We recently moved into the area and the staff at The Old Station Nursery have been helpful and supportive. My daughter really enjoys the nursery and I'm sure her brother will too when he joins in September.

My daughter has been in the nursery since baby room and she's now in preschool. The staff have always been amazing. There's plenty of room and space for her to explore in the classroom and she enjoys playing in the garden. My daughter loves her nursery, the staff and the other kids and I am always well informed of her day at nursery when she gets picked up.

The individual staff members of the nursery particularly the baby room are brilliant. They are very caring, approachable and understanding, both our children have settled well and love attending. We would love a bit more communication in terms of how our preschool child is developing and general feedback.

My daughter is very happy at The Old Station Nursery Faringdon. She is always excited to go and enjoys herself while learning which is what is important. The staff are lovely and they really put a lot of effort into putting on exciting activities and events.

We are in our third year at the nursery and we are very happy here. Considering that this is the only nursery in Faringdon for younger children, we are very lucky with how good the nursery is. The staff seem to genuinely care about doing a good job, and my son considers the staff to be his friends. The children have lots of different activities, have French lessons and yoga lessons, and even occasionally go out on little outings. The nursery celebrates lots of seasonal and cultural events, as well as life events at the nursery, for example when a member of staff gets married or gets a dog, it's made into a fun learning experience for the children. This nursery is in a different league to the one I went to as a child!

We absolutely love The Old Station Nursery, Faringdon. My son loves it here and the staff in the preschool are all just amazing. He’s learnt so much and has come on so well. The staff are very reassuring and professional. I can’t sing their praises enough.

Lovely clean open space and even has air con in the baby room!

It’s my second child to go to the Old Station nursery. They both went to the baby room. The facility is very nice, with high ceilings with a lot of light, nice, new toys for the kids, they have a separate room for the little ones to sleep and they have a small patio for them to play outside. All the staff are really nice.

Our daughter, who has attended the nursery ever since she was a baby, has had irreplaceable support and a wonderful experience being a member of the ever-growing, ever-embracing community that is The Old Station. We have warm places in our hearts for you all!

Perfect communication. Modern and airy atmosphere. Everything is well organized and the staff are very helpful. On-site parking. The parents' app used to follow the course of the day is very complete and we can find out about our baby at any time. We are very pleased. Amazing place.

Very friendly staff and excellent facilities for our daughter compared to other nurseries around the area of Faringdon. Safe area for the babies and detailed reports via the app for each day, including nappies, food and day-to-day activities.

We have just been to the Jubilee Party at the Nursery with our 3 year old daughter. The staff there had made such a wonderful effort to make the party special for the children. It was a lovely afternoon and, as usual, the staff were there to support and care for us all. A big thank you to all involved.

Absolutely wonderful staff and nursery. I have an 11-month-old here and I get daily in-depth reports of everything. Feeding reports, nappy change reports etc. Highly recommend this nursery. Best I've ever used.
