Staff are extremely attentive, kind and approachable. The school has excellent communication regarding my child's progress and he always comes home smiling. The care they receive is individualised and each child is valued to the highest standard. It's a clean and safe environment that provides an excellent source of education.
Thank you for leaving a review - we're so pleased to hear that your child is so happy at our nursery.
We are well informed with feedback on a daily basis. My granddaughter has come on so much with her development, we couldn't be happier. I would highly recommend.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a reply and for your recommendation - it is very much appreciated.
I'm very pleased with the care that the staff at the abbey have given to my child, he has recently only started and I can't fault them very attentive and great communication. My little boy has come on leaps and bounds since starting and I have seen a great improvement with his sleep pattern at home.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're so pleased to hear your son has settled into nursery and has already made progress.
After lots of recommendations on the Abbey Nursery from other parents, I moved my child here after a bad experience with another nursery. We were really anxious about sending him to a different nursery after this experience and how unhappy he was there. From the moment he started here, he was content and thriving in all areas. His speech, social skills, eating, potty training and overall learning have improved immensely since starting here in January. He went from crying every-time he went into the other nursery, to asking when he can go nursery since starting here (I think it may be his favourite place!). I do not agree with ofsteds rating and I would not send my child or any future children to any other nurseries. The staff are incredible and make myself and my husband feel comfortable sending him here. He loves the outside space, swimming lessons and dance class at the nursery. This is a fantastic nursery and I cannot fault them.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our nursery. I'm so pleased to hear that your little one has settled well with us. What lovely feedback to receive! I will be sure to share your comments with our nursery team.
Super happy with Abbey School nursery, we have experienced all nursery rooms across three children attending over the past three years. All staff we have had contact with, have been brilliant with our children, making sure they have a connection with them as well as providing the learning aspect, and giving any extra attention to areas needed. They have a big outside space that is utilised daily by all ages. The options available are more than most nurseries, including swimming lessons onsite and dance activities, as well as taking the children offsite occasionally. The staff have been accommodating with any requests we have and are always friendly. Our children have all made friends in their rooms, and get regularly invited to parties etc. We haven't had any negative situations and would recommend to anyone looking for a nursery.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're so pleased you are happy with the care we provide your children with and I'll share your lovely comments with the nursery staff.
