The Old Station Nursery Filkins

I’m extremely happy with Filkins Nursery. Our son loves it there and has formed really strong bonds with the staff in his room, who are all lovely people. I feel confident entrusting our son to their care, and he really enjoys the variety of activities that they come up with. The atmosphere is warm and nurturing, and the building and outside environment are lovely.

My daughter has been attending Filkins full time since October and I couldn't be happier with the nursery. The staff are fantastic, friendly, and genuinely care about your child, their needs and development. My daughter loves going to nursery and her speech has come on leaps and bounds since starting, she's gone from saying a few words to talking full sentences. I really like the tapestry system and being kept up to date with all the activities my daughter takes part in. The forest school is a lovely addition to the nursery. All in all, a fantastic nursery with brilliant staff, would highly recommend.

Filkins nursery is every parent's dream! Their curriculum is outstanding! Every day there is something new and imaginative going on, I have no idea how they manage to think of so many new concepts.The love, care and time they give to the children is really admirable. My daughter adores her key working and there is nothing more reassuring than knowing your child is in a place where the pastoral care is outstanding! The communication is absolutely fantastic especially having the added bonus of their online app which means we get to see pictures and read about what our children have been doing on a day to day basis. If only we had lived in the area when my oldest child was at nursery! I feel like she really missed out not going to Filkins! I couldn’t recommend it highly enough!!!

Filkins Nursery is fabulous and my daughter has thrived there with the lovely and talented staff. The forest school, music class and friendships are a few of the highlights she tells me about after each day. I can’t wait for my son to start there soon too!

My son has been attending Filkins Nursery for a few months now and I cannot speak highly enough of the staff, the pastoral care and broad and balanced curriculum that is on offer. From day one we were both made to feel so welcome and my son very quickly built up a close relationship with his key carer. It is such a comfort to be able to drop him off at a place where I know he is safe, happy and nurtured. He loves the outdoor space and attending Forest School with the chickens! Communication with parents is excellent; I always know what our son has been learning, what topics they will be looking at in the coming weeks and what his next developmental targets are. It truly is an outstanding nursery.

Filkins Nursery is a really important part of our daughter's (and therefore our) lives. We have watched her develop wonderful relationships with the other children as well as with the staff who are the kindest most patient bunch you could imagine. Her little brother is very excited to take her spot at Filkins when his sister goes up to big school in September with us knowing that she is entirely ready socially and academically thanks to Filkins. Couldn't recommend the manager and her team more highly.

I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent. Filkins is a caring and nurturing environment for young children, with a sense of calm every time I drop off or pick up. Our children love being there and the staff clearly love their job.

They are all highly trained and clearly care about all of the children in their care.

Our daughter attended the Old Station Nursery pre school full time this year. Not once did our little girl never want to go to nursery, if anything she wanted to be there even longer! The staff work tirelessly to develop the children and created such a strong bond with them, it was amazing to see. By the end of her preschool year all our concerns about our daughter being ready for school had disappeared, all thanks to the Old Station Nursery.

We put both our children through Filkins prior to starting school and feel they have been given the perfect start. The right mix between play and "education" and a great mix between indoor and outdoor work. Our children loved the space outside with lots of space to run around. Lots of extras like French and singing etc...

The OFSTED report doesn't lie - the only way to describe the nursery is OUTSTANDING.

The level of care this nursery has shown our son goes way beyond our expectations. If it wasn't for Filkins Nursery, I honestly believe our son would not have achieved his potential. They are fantastic.

Filkins Nursery is outstanding. I always feel happy dropping my children off in the mornings and the boys are always eager to get in and start playing. I am confident that all the staff care and look after the boys helping them learn and develop individually. I love picking my boys up and seeing the wonderful things they have proudly created, which always follows an interesting topic or theme they are learning about each week. The communication between the nursery and myself is excellent with regular photos and updates on the private network and the staff are very efficient at getting back to me with any queries relating to hours or payments. My boys are happy, confident and well cared for and get to spend lots of time outside exploring and they love forest school. I have no hesitation in recommending Filkins Nursery.

An excellent preschool. All staff have shown high levels of care, professionalism and understanding. They have helped us immensely with our son. Our daughter has recently started and has settled in quickly.

Lovely, friendly nursery with amazing staff and great setting. The staff are absolutely wonderful and give each individual child the support, attention and care that they need. Activities vary from yoga, music to French lessons and classroom themes and topics change weekly. My daughter has always been very happy at Filkins which in turn has meant peace of mind for me!

My children have collectively attended Filkins nursery for nearly 5 years. The care and thought that goes into the nursery every day are outstanding. My children have enjoyed going to nursery and have built fantastic relationships with their key carers. My children's learning needs are amazingly catered for and communication with parents is excellent.

We feel very lucky to have had 15 happy months at Filkins to date and will be sad to leave for school!

Filkins Nursery (The Old Station Nursery Ltd) is a wonderful nursery. The children are so well cared for and entertained daily with a wide range of activities that are imaginative and encourage learning. Management is very organised and everything runs smoothly. I feel very happy and confident to leave my son here knowing he is having fun and learning while being well cared for.

I am always kept up to date with important information via emails and parent newsletters. I am looking forward to participating in my first parent partnership meeting in February.

He will be very sad to leave for school.

Our daughter has been attending Filkins Nursery for 18 months and in that time she has developed in so many ways, thanks to the nursery. The staff are helpful, friendly and well organised. We really feel that our daughter is in safe hands. Her key workers have really taken a keen interest in everything she does, encouraging her to try all the activities that the nursery carries out. We are very fortunate to have this nursery on our doorstep.
