Review from Lisa W (Mother of Child) published on 25 September 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My son has been happily cared for by the wonderful staff for nearly 4 years.
The care, kindness and commitment of the staff has been amazing.
They have helped my son start big school as a confident, happy boy who has already learnt so much and is ready and excited to learn more.
They have looked after him so caringly.
To know he was safe, happy and cared for was the most important thing...and he was...always.

Thank you.

Review from Lesley F (Mother of Child) published on 30 August 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My son thrived at The Wantage Nursery and Preschool, bringing out his softer side, sharing and being more considerate. The staff have been excellent in both early years foundation education, his care and social development.
What is more, he's had fun, lots of fun with food, mud, paint, cardboard, mud and more mud.

Thank you all we'll never forget you.

Overall Experience

My child has attended Wantage Pre-school and Nursery for 4 years. His confidence has grown enormously since he started. The staff always inform me of his development and his daily routine. My child's social skills have increased since joining pre-school and he has many friends.

Review from Selina D (Mother of Child) published on 14 June 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son has developed so well with the care and patience of the staff. He is always happy to be left and loves to play outside for as long as possible. The staff are so friendly and all the children are really smiley and well-mannered, a big indicator of how settled and secure they feel. The nursery has reduced the guilt we feel about leaving him as he is so well looked after.

Overall Experience

Our son joined at 9 months old and settled in quickly. When dropping him off he is smiley and excited when we go through the door. His key worker is excellent and very caring. He is very fond of her. We are very happy that whilst we are at work, he is cared and looked after to a high standard.

Friendly and helpful staff. Always got a smile and are happy to see my son in the mornings. Generally, give a good feedback on the day's events and instil the correct amount of values and discipline.

Overall Experience

My son loves coming to nursery and most days it is hard to get him to come home, especially when he is up in pre-school, due to the activities they do up there. But he loves the staff downstairs, loves the garden area. It is a super area, especially with the eating area too.

Review from Clare E (Mother of Child) published on 7 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My little girl has come on leaps and bounds and that is down to the amazing staff. They always have smiles on their faces and lots of snuggles when needed. Without this amazing team I don't know how I would have coped going back to work and recently through an illness. I wouldn't take my daughter anywhere else or have anyone else looking after her.

Review from Samantha S (Mother of Child) published on 22 June 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son loves pre-school, he has developed so much during his short time upstairs, his speaking and confidence has increased so much. The teaching staff are welcoming, kind, caring and professional offering the best possible care and teaching. The pre-shcool room is full of colour and happiness and there is always an activity or two or three for my son, who currently attends afternoons, to get straight on with. It's a wonderful place with amazing staff. :)

Review from Heidi M (Mother of Child) published on 22 June 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The progress that my son made from the very beginning was astonishing. The variety of activities that my son takes part in is amazing, from yoga to phonics. My son's key worker has a caring and professional attitude and is committed to ensuring the progress of my son. My son loves nursery/pre-school and the relationship he has with his key worker, the other staff make him want to attend and is reassuring for me as a parent.

Overall Experience
My daughter started nursery as a shy 2 years old and after being at Wantage nursery for just a few months she has really come out of her shell. Her teacher is excellent, my daughter adores her and she is treated like her own.

My daughter loves coming to nursery because of this and she has come on in leaps and bounds. I would recommend this nursery.
