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

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.

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!

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.
My little boy has attended Hermitage day nursery from 9months old and loved everyday. Forest School for pre school children is amazing he loves going on the mini bus each week.

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.

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!

Welcome to Hermitage Nursery SchoolAt Hermitage, children are encouraged to be inquisitive and imaginative in an inspiring learning environment that nurtures curiosity and a love of discovery. Outdoor learning plays a central role in nursery life, and our Forest School sessions give children the chance to explore, build confidence, and connect with nature. Strong partnerships are at the heart of what we do.
We work closely with parents, carers, health visitors, area SENCo, and speech and language therapists to ensure every child’s individual needs are met and that their transition to school is happy and seamless.
Our experienced educators bring a wealth of early years knowledge and create personalised learning experiences for every child. By recognising each child’s unique story, we help them grow and learn in a way that feels right for them.
We look forward to welcoming your family to Hermitage Nursery School so you can see our exceptional environment for yourself.
