Amazing nursery, very welcoming and a great atmosphere for children to learn and grow. The outdoor area is amazing and the nursery is very well equipped with toys and activities to keep little minds busy. The menu is very well planned and very nutritious.
Lovely key workers in the baby room, my child found it easy to settle in and built a great relationship with their key worker. Unable to see anything other than the front due to Covid-19. The only frustration is the car park at pickup, which is difficult to rectify.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough. Our son joined at one years old and has been at hdc Dartington for sixteen months now and has thrived. The staff are so lovely and supportive, especially during the stress of Covid-19 and whilst my son underwent surgery for glue ear.
Our granddaughter has been attending the nursery for approx 9 months and she has thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. The team are kind, caring, thoughtful and provide a wonderful range of activities, learning and friendships for all the children attending.
