Both of my children attended this nursery from when they were 9months old, dating back to 2020.
The staff/manager are all amazing and it was incredible to see how much my children were learning and growing whilst having fun.
All areas of the nursery are clean and they have a variety of different foods which is well balanced. The care in which my children have received is amazing and you can see the relationships between the staff and children are so close.
The staff/manager go above and beyond with the children and always at pick up let you know how their day has been.
The children have a variety of activities and have such fun in the summer with staff having water fun ! I am sad to see my last child leave this nursery :(
Thank you for your lovely review, its been lovely to see your two children grow up and their personalities grow. All the best and keep in touch
This nursery has felt like an extension of family life for my daughter. The staff are so in tune with each child and their unique needs. My daughter speaks often about how much she enjoys going. As a full time working mum it has given me such peace of mind knowing how well she is looked after. I see investment in the facilities for the children and creativity in celebrating their milestones. The staff are approachable, friendly and caring. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
Thank you for your lovely review, all the best and keep in touch
This is an amzing nursery. Very caring, supportive and approachable staff. My son started at 2 years old and wouldnt interact with anyone, wouldnt talk or ask for help either. He has left this year to go to school full of confidence, made friends, and speaking to staff. The staff meet childrens individual needs, and put their all into what they do. The children do a great range of activities indoors and outdoors, and also provide them with fun days with splash pads and water play, graduation days, and parent stay and plays. They have outdoor people come in to do activities, such as disco duck, spanish, and mini athletics which my son loved doing. I honeslty dont think I could have found a better nursery for my son to attend. Staff always keep you updated on your childs progress, written and verbally, and provide photos of what your child has done throughout the week. Its 100% one of the best nursery's around!
Thank you for your lovely review, it was great to see your child thrive and grow in confidence. All the best and keep in touch
Amazing nursery! wonderful staff and amazing management. my child blossomed so greatly with the help of this nursery. up to date setting and staff really put your mind at ease. children are well looked after in their care
Thank you for your lovely review, all the best and keep in touch
My 4 year old has just left abc! I cannot express how amazing the staff are and how hard they work. My daughter has came on leaps and bounds since starting Abc. She had the best time there and loved going to nursery everyday. Cannot recommend this nursery enough! The rooms are spacious with all different kind of areas and the new outdoor area is amazing!
Thank you for your lovely review, all the best and keep in touch
My son was admitted in this nursery when he was 2.5 years old. We continued here for an year. After that, we relocated to India as I got a job in India. This is an excellent nursery. My son has a problem in social interaction. The nursery helped him in all possible ways to overcome this and always supported him. Whenever we became worried about our son, they came up with valuable inputs. The staffs are excellent and very caring. My son used to enjoy his time there. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your kind review, wishing you all the best with your new life in india
My children have thrived here. Staff are warm, loving and genuinely delight in the children. They go above and beyond and individuality is valued and celebrated. They work really hard to provide a stimulating and educational environment whilst embracing continuous provision, curiosity and play. I felt like they really knew my children. Genuinely so sad that my era of nursery is over as ABC are a real staple of the community, but my girls have started school as happy, confident children who have been given the best start. Liz - manager - has always tried to accommodate individual circumstances and always goes above and beyond for her staff / the community. Can't rate them highly enough especially in a tough economic climate / chronic underfunding.
Thank you for your Kind words, we are so pleased the girls have started school so confidently. make sure you stay in touch
The staff are wonderful, the experiences they get are fantastic and Liz always goes above and beyond to make sure parents are involved and the children get wider experiences- for example a yearly Christmas party, a yearly community trip as well as disco duck, hands on animal experiences and in her last year my daughter learned Spanish through singing.
We are so pleased we chose ABC! Thank you!
Thank you for your lovely review. its important to us as a setting that we can offer as many experiences as we can to all of the children
After a bad experience with both a nursery and a childminder, I was hesitant to send my daughter to another nursery. After meeting the staff at ABC I was put at ease. My daughter has additional needs and the nursery has supported her through the last 2 years bringing on her speech and confidence. My only regret is that I didn't send her there first.
Thank you for your review, it was so lovely to see your little one's character grow and grow. It was lovely to see the friendships she made and she always made us smile. Make sure you drop in and visit soon.
Both my children have used this nursery with the youngest just leaving to go to school. The staff are amazing and so caring towards the children. The nursery is full of fun everyday. I would recommend this nursery one thousand percent. They put me as a mother as ease leaving my children knowing they are in safe loving hands. Thanks again ABC Day Nursery!
My child has learned so much.
I wish you all the best, I want to tell every family to take their kids to them.
I love you all.
Thank you for your kind review, please keep spreading the word as we thrive on recommendations. All the best to your family.
Highly recommend ABC Nursery, a lovely family-run business that cares immensely for the children and is always striving to get the best out of the children. I've used them from 2007-2010 and then from 2020-2024. Both were very positive experiences and wouldn't send my children anywhere else as they've given them the best start in life ready for school.
Thank you for your kind words, and I'm so pleased to hear of your positive experience during your children's time at ABC. All the best to you both and your girls. Keep in touch.
I have two children and both attended this nursery 7 years apart. This nursery is outstanding. They go above and beyond for your children and both have been ready for school by the time they have finished- they both started at 9 months old up until just under 5 years old. They have been extremely well looked after and have learned so much from their experiences and from the staff taking care of them. They have been taught, through play, all about numbers, shapes, and phonics- the nursery does its best to give children the best start in life and they ensure lots of fun is had too in all manner of different activities. Both my children have loved this nursery and have been very sad to leave.
Thank you for your lovely review, I'm so pleased you have been happy with the service over so many years. As a family-run business, we like to keep standards high and ensure every child has the best experience. Stay in touch and all the best.
My daughter has been going full time for over 3 years, since she the age of 1. They consistently deliver not only a wide range of activities but the staff’s care and patience have had such a wonderful influence on my little one. She loved the staff and ate really well! Her communication skills, social skills, motor skills came on leaps and bounds. She’s made great friends and I trust the staff implicitly, it takes the weight out of leaving her in their care.
Not only are all her needs met, her behaviour improved, I felt really supported as a parent.
Extra parties and celebrations were organised, well over and above what you may expect, the care and generosity were overwhelming! Christmas parties, Easter celebrations, coronation tea party, just amazing!
Updates and photos via the online group are lovely, you’re made to feel part of their day- I’ll miss it so much now she’s moving on to school. They gave her such a lovely start - thank you!
Thank you for such a lovely review, we are so pleased to hear that you had such a great experience at ABC. Stay in touch and all the best at big school.
My daughter has been here for a couple of years and she absolutely loves it, great place, lots to do, friendly staff and they always go above and beyond to keep the children happy with entertainment on special occasions, parties etc. Would highly recommend.
Thank you for your kind review; we like to keep things fun, as this is what makes the memories for the children. All the best.
Thank you for everything.
We all miss you and wish you every success in the future, and know that you will support the foundation of many little ones to come.
Thank you for your lovely review. Covid-19 was a tough time for all, but it was our aim to keep it as normal for the children as possible. Keep in touch, and all the best.
A superb family run nursery, with superb staff. I would recommend ABC to anyone, my daughter has excelled at this nursery and I’m sad she has to leave for school.
Thanking you for taking the time to give us a review, I'm so glad you have enjoyed your time with us. Go and shine at big school now.
I'm so pleased with my son's time at ABC nursery so far! His social skills have come on leaps and bounds, along with all the experiences he has gained alongside his peers which is difficult to offer at home. I was very nervous leaving my son at 8 months old in the care of another but the nursery were absolutely wonderful in offering a settling in period before leaving him for a full day. The staff obviously care so much for the children and it is a lovely environment for the children too.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. settling in sessions are very important and often the children are fine but its very important that parents have that time to build up that trust and friendship with the staff.
What a fantastic nursery A B C really is! My son has attended for over a year now and has come on leaps and bounds. My son really struggled with his speech when he first started, the staff have worked tirelessly with him to improve his speech and other things, and now he has a fantastic vocabulary and is so much more confident. The staff are all lovely and welcoming, the whole place has a family feel to it and is a lovely safe and clean place for your child to grow up in. A B C is by far the best nursery around. If you’re looking at sending your child to nursery then definitely give the manager and the ladies at A B C a thought.
Thank you for such a lovely review. We love to see the children develop, grow in confidence and be happy in their surroundings.
I have nothing but praise for the A B C Nursery. The staff are not only friendly and polite but very welcoming to new parents. It can be daunting leaving your child at such a young age (mine was nine months old) but they made us feel very comfortable and secure. The activities that the children do are lovely, there are music lessons on a Monday that my son loves, along with lots of painting and creative activities. The outside garden area has recently been done out and the kids go out in it every day. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone.
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We aim to put parents at ease as it's a bigger deal for you than it is for the little ones really. Glad to hear you are happy with everything.
