Review from L G (Mother of Child) published on 1 May 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Both our children attended The Old Station Nursery. There is a very caring, friendly atmosphere. Staff are thoughtful, kind and work so hard. Daily activities are fun and varied and we get updates on the app. They also post meal times, naps, photos etc. Our son is very settled and enjoys himself a lot. His favourite part is outdoor pursuits and dancing/singing. I'd definitely recommend this lovely nursery that we are so lucky to have on our doorstep.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne

We are pleased to read that your son has settled well and that you are happy with our communications, which are so important for parents to feel reassured. Thank you for leaving us a review.

Wonderful nursery. Trustworthy, experienced and friendly staff. Lovely and spacious setting. Our son was in great hands and made huge leaps in development thanks to the team there. He was regularly excited to head out of the door to nursery each day, which was extremely reassuring. I’d recommend The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne without hesitation.

Absolutely outstanding service!
The manager and the team really get to know your child as an individual! They care about them and their development. We have noticed a huge change in our son since going to The Old Station Nursery; he is happy to go to the nursery and always has a smile on his face when you pick him up.

They really do a fantastic job! Thank you.

Review from R H (Mother of Child) published on 21 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The most wonderful nursery, with great spaces for the kids outside which was really important to us. They are so thoughtful and resourceful ensuring that the child and parents have the best experience.
My child loves it there and has bonded with all the staff so well, as have we. They show much care and are so attentive to each child, we had a span when my child was afraid of the lawnmower on site and the team were so helpful in ensuring that he was comforted as well as showing initiative in ways to help!

Couldn’t be happier with it, would give more stars if I could, they are the most lovely team with an outstanding manager. They have gone above and beyond countless times helping me through some personal circumstances and I couldn’t be more grateful for the safe environment they created through the pandemic and to now.

Review from Kat B (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We love this nursery and so does our little one. We have had issues with our daughter's health over the last 10 months and all staff have been super supportive, especially in making radical changes to her diet to allow her gut to heal. Staff have worked with us to help our daughter and she is now thriving. Our little one loves going to nursery and puts her arms out to go towards staff when I drop her off which clearly shows that she has built relationships with the staff in the baby room. The range of activities is brilliant, I love the amount of messy play she does so we don't have to do this at home!! You can tell she is settled and enjoys her time at nursery, I love the app updates with pictures. The nursery manager is amazing, nothing is too much trouble and it's obvious that she's passionate about making the nursery a better place.

Review from Emily H (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with how our son has settled into The Old Station Nursery and this is very much thanks to the manager and baby room staff. The time and effort that they have put in to ease his transition (from crying a lot at drop off to leaning over to be taken within a week or two!) and help him to nap has been wonderful. The staff are friendly, attentive and caring, and his development over the short time he has been there is impressive. We are so pleased that we chose this nursery.

Reply from Joanne Wright, Chief Marketing Officer at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne

Thank you, that's really important for the team to hear. We'll be sure to pass this on to them.

Review from Beth W (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Absolutely Brilliant! The staff are all so friendly and approachable, both of my children love their time there. They were allowed to settle in gently which has meant that drop-offs are a breeze and they always come out smiling, happy and telling me all about the fun they’ve had. Staff always give you a thorough rundown of their day as well as regular app updates. The play areas are spacious and well-equipped and my children love the outdoor space and get plenty of chance to explore this. My children’s development with speech and life skills have come on rapidly and noticeably since being at Old Station, and we’re looking forward to our parent's evening! All staff are extremely professional at all times and ensure nothing gets misplaced, and even though our children are allowed to get mucky (and are encouraged to)! They always come out with clean clothes and faces. The manager could not be more helpful, and time has been taken to establish great relationships with key workers.

Review from Samantha R (Mother of Child) published on 29 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I'm a triplet mum and my girls started July 2023, they were supposed to start in late September but due to ill health, the nursery kindly got them in earlier.
The manager is an absolute asset to the nursery and is never too shy to get her hands dirty and work both offices and floor, the dedication she puts into her work doesn't go amiss.
The team are all very good and my girls bond dearly with them all, I'm a very anxious mum and the whole nursery made me feel at ease and very welcoming which made me choose them overall.

Would recommend it highly to friends and family.

Reply from Joanne Wright, Chief Marketing Officer at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your review. We'll be sure to pass this on to the team as they will be delighted to read it. We really appreciate your comments and we're glad to make a difference to both you and the girls.

Review from S H (Mother of Child) published on 3 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

If I could give more stars, I would! The manager and her fabulous, energetic team have been nothing but brilliant towards our little boy during his time at OSN Wellesbourne. The manager has shown her improvements throughout the Nursery during 2023 and it is very clear her passion for her job and her nursery is matchless. All of the ladies within the toddler room, (in fact all of the rooms) are professional and it is clear that each and every one of them is doing the right job. Our son had a tricky start to the year in a setting elsewhere, OSN took him in and his nerves soon disappeared, and he was excited for Nursery every day! A special thank you to his key worker, who made his stay the most settled we have ever seen him and his key skills have thrived since. Thank you all at OSN Wellesbourne. You're all brilliant!

The care for my child is incredible. I’m so happy to send my son, he loves all the staff & they always take the time to update me. I get regular updates on the app. Photos could be sent more frequently, however, this is not essential.

Reply from Beth Lewendon, Marketing Coordinator at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that your son is enjoying his time at our nursery and that you're happy with the care provided by our dedicated staff. We'll do our best to keep those updates coming, and we appreciate your feedback about the photos. Your child's well-being and your peace of mind are our top priorities!

I couldn’t ask for a more welcoming and caring setting for my daughter. The relationships built between the staff and children are so special and I feel my child is in completely safe hands. The setting is well-equipped with a variety of educational resources and the outdoor space is fantastic, offering lots of play options.

Overall Experience
My child seems very happy and settled at Seedlings and always smiling when we pick them up. The staff all seem very capable and friendly and easy to deal with.

It would be really useful to have a weekly lunch/snack menu posted on the parent's app or emailed so we can monitor their diet a little more closely whilst out and look for any potential trigger foods and likes/dislikes.

Reply from Beth Lewendon, Marketing Coordinator at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne
Thank you for your positive feedback! We're delighted to hear that your child is happy and settled at the nursery.

Review from Terri-Ann F (Mother of Child) published on 19 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The nursery is brilliant. Both my boys have been at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne from Pips to Blooms, and they are both thriving; I put this down to the love and affection from the staff at the setting. The outdoor space is great; there is so much for them to do.

There has been a lot of investment in the nursery since the changeover, and I hope they look at the forest school and bring this back for summer. This is truly a setting worthy of all the great reviews.

Overall Experience

Lovely nursery and staff and setting. Our child is very happy. The fees charged on top of "free" hours are very high and they are not very transparent with billing making it very difficult to check what you are being charged. We weren't given a choice whether to stretch the hours. It has taken me months to resolve queries on bills.

Review from Rose J (Mother of Child) published on 17 April 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff are truly lovely at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne. My son currently attends the Pips room (under 2 years) and absolutely loves it.
The staff are so attentive and have been really helpful with managing his conditions including eczema and a food allergy. I was nervous about how a nursery would handle these things but the staff have put our minds at ease.
Our son has been attending the nursery for 9 months and every day we can see how much he is developing. The nursery gets him involved in lots of fun activities and messy play, as well as having lots of time outdoors. They have also given us useful advice including helping us to get our son to sleep better.

Thank you for doing such a wonderful job taking care of our son.
