Overall Experience

Sandhills has helped take the stress out of returning to work, from the settling in, the friendly staff that know all the children, to the activities they take part in. The eyLog app helps you feel included in what they are up to and catching up with his progress at parents evening is great. They are also really good at trying to accommodate if you need extra days cover.

Review from H H (Mother of Child) published on 7 December 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have used Sandhills over the last 9 years for my 2 children and have been consistently pleased with their care. My daughter is currently in her last year there before starting school in September 2018. She has always enjoyed her time there and been treated with care and affection since she started at the end of 2015. She has a dairy allergy and Sandhills have gone out of their way to cater to her requirements, adapting the lunch menu and ordering specific dairy free foods where necessary.

The staff have always been professional and caring and we would highly recommend Sandhills to anyone looking for nursery care.

I have previously used this nursery for my daughter and now using for my son. The nursery is a welcoming place, home from home. The staff are all friendly and helpful. You know your child is in safe hands here. They are outstanding in their Ofsted report and it really shows. I wouldn’t consider anywhere else.

Sandhills has been nothing but fantastic with my two children. The staff gave my daughter a really strong foundation for Reception Class. My son has grown in confidence and is learning lots of songs and numbers at the moment. The management is very approachable and accommodating. Thank you Sandhills!

Review from Sarah M (Mother of Child) published on 18 April 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter has speech and language problems and the staff in Mr Chatterbox have been fantastic in helping her build her confidence and developing some of her speech by using flash cards and including her in all activities. They tell me what she has done when I collect her and the staff are so friendly, especially one staff member which my daughter has taken a liking too. I love the eLog app where I can see photos, videos and read what my daughter has been getting up too. Thank you Sandhills.

Review from Claire F (Mother of Child) published on 5 April 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both my children went to Sandhills Day Nursery (Alvechurch) from around 10months and have loved it. As a parent, I'm confident they are looked after by caring, kind and attentive staff who make a point of keeping parents well informed on every aspect of learning, development and the fun they have. The setting is beautiful, the facilities are good, the food is good and the staff clearly love their job. I can't speak highly enough about this nursery! Even the craft projects they do with the little ones for Easter, Mothers Day etc are lovely little touches.

Overall Experience

My daughter attended Sandhills from when she was a baby right up until she started school and I cannot praise the nursery enough. My child really enjoyed going to nursery and her confidence and development improved greatly. Seeing your child happy and content at nursery gives you an added peace of mind. The staff are an absolute credit to Sandhills.

Overall Experience

My daughter started at Sandhills 2 years ago after moving her from another nursery where she was unhappy. Being at Sandhills has transformed her, and was the best decision we could have made. The staff are excellent as are the management team. All the children are happy, settled and well cared for. The range of activities and learning are brilliant. My daughter thoroughly enjoys her time here and I have complete confidence in their care. Can't recommend them enough.

Overall Experience

Over 7 years for both my children we have had a very positive experience at Sandhills. The staff are very caring and many have been there for a long time. They provide a wide range of activities for the children and except for the oldest children the rooms are small, so they get a lot of individual attention.

Overall Experience

I have always been highly impressed with the quality of care at Sandhills Nursery, our daughter has been attending since she was 8 months old. In recent weeks the staff have gone the extra mile in assuring our daughters transfer to school is successful and stress free. I am particularly impressed with their planned activities this week like practicing getting changed into their PE kits. A fantastic team at Sandhills fully deserve their recent outstanding Ofsted report. I feel very grateful that our daughter has been exposed to such a positive learning environment.
