Review from Sigourney G (Mother of Child) published on 6 February 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

A great nursery that I wouldn’t hesitate recommending to anyone. My son has always been happy there, the staff are very caring and compassionate towards the children and I feel completely comfortable leaving my son in their care. The toys and activities on offer are really good, different every day along with messy play activities.

If you are considering this nursery for childcare, you will not be disappointed.

Review from Carole B (Grandmother of Child) published on 5 February 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My grandson was very happy at the nursery. He always wanted to go to nursery, and never wanted to come home as he had so much fun. He always came home talking about the activities and interesting things he did, from trips, people visiting to do talks and what he did during the day. He loved the staff and didn't stop talking about them, and what they did with him.

He loved every minute. They did lots of extra things for the children, like Christmas parties and fetes and a leaving graduation for the older children. Couldn't of asked for a better place for my grandson to go to, he learnt so much.

Overall Experience
Lovely nursery and fantastic nursery staff, I couldn’t be happier with the care my daughter receives when she is in their care.

Not only are all her basic needs met in a caring and professional manner, but her learning needs are also fulfilled.

Review from S D (Mother of Child) published on 18 January 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started the nursery when she was 8 months old. Right from the first moment, she entered the baby room she absolutely loved this nursery and continues to attend the nursery now in the preschool 2 room. She has thoroughly enjoyed every room and has brilliant relationships with all of the staff at the nursery. The staff are loving, caring, and treat the children as if they are their own. They adhere to every child’s personal needs, and I find the observations and learning journeys that are kept on the children are impeccable. The standard of care is second to none. I would highly recommend this nursery to everybody that I know.

Couldn't be happier with the care our daughter gets. From the cleaning staff to the manager, everyone puts in 100% to make our daughter's time away from us the best it can be.

Review from Jo C (Mother of Child) published on 18 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

A superb nursery that provides exceptional childcare for my son who attends full time. He loves going every morning and completes a varied range of stimulating activities every day. The staff are brilliant- even if they are not in my son’s room, they know his name and speak to him in the mornings or evenings. This adds to the warm, caring and safe environment that is always evident at this nursery. I would not hesitate to recommend to any prospective parent!

Review from Clare M (Mother of Child) published on 18 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child was extremely happy at nursery and always looked forward to seeing the staff when going into nursery. He loved the activities available and enjoyed being in the room with staff and carrying out what the staff had to offer them. The day to day routine was always varied and fun and catered for their interests and he loved being there. I couldn't have been more happy with the care.

Overall Experience

My son started Hermitage when he was 8 months in the Babyroom and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. He settled really quickly and built good strong relationships with his keyworker and staff within the Nursery. All staff was caring and supportive and he enjoyed being in each room before leaving Preschool 2 in October.

Review from Laura (Mother of Child) published on 17 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son went to the nursery from 9 months old until he was ready for school at 4 and now my second son has been going since he was 7 months old and he is now 2.
The nursery is purpose built so each room is a bright space that has everything the children need for a day of adventures! The outside space is also a winner with lots to do for the children. Even the babies don’t miss out with their own secure outside play space which for me was one of the reasons why I loved Hermitage when I viewed.
The staff are brilliant and if there ever was anything that needed to be discussed they are always ready to listen. From day one they follow out your wishes as a parent as well as helping your child to the next stage in their development.
The staff are all trained to a high level and they ensure that everyone is first aid trained etc. They have even organised first aid training for parents.

I personally can’t recommend them enough!
