Sandhills Day Nursery Boston

My daughter started the nursery in September 2019 when we moved to the area, she had been in a nursery setting elsewhere previously. The significant improvement in all her abilities was almost instantaneous, no doubt thanks to the wonderful setting and the wonderful staff there who cannot do enough to help and support the development of children.

My daughter loved the nursery and is now in the pre-school setting, which she also loves. She has loved every day at Sandhills and is always excited to go and see ‘her ladies’ (the staff) and all her friends. She’s such a happy and content little girl there.

The garden, complete with a Forest School area, is a great advantage for the setting.

Covid related action has been handled expertly by the team, and they have communicated fantastically throughout.

I would not hesitate to use this nursery again. I’m going to miss it when she starts school.

I put my children into Sandhills back in May 2019. My son only had 7-weeks left before his school journey but had really lost all his confidence in his old nursery setting. Within days we had our little confident, happy boy back and that's thanks to the staff here. My daughter has just moved into preschool and absolutely loves all the staff, friends and the surroundings. She's always happy to be dropped off and always enjoys her days at nursery. Everyone is so caring and always helpful. I wish I had found these guys sooner!

We really do wish he could stay until the end like his big sister! Thank you for everything.

The standards of this day nursery, in my opinion, are excellent. My son who is now 14 months old has been attending since he was nine months old and I am so pleased with the care and attention he receives whilst in their care. He is continually encouraged to develop within his own interests and the resources and imagination used by the staff are amazing, very attentive. The staff are all friendly and welcoming and build great relationships with parents and children. The meals provided are varied and nutritious and thoroughly enjoyed by my son. The outside area is fabulous and gives the children opportunities to explore and develop, no matter what their age.

All staff in my daughter's room have a lovely connection with her, especially her key worker. I particularly like the idea of ‘in the moment’ planning as children change their interests on a daily basis. In the moment planning allows my child’s learning to develop in a way that she wants it to be (at the age of 1!). I could not imagine my daughter being anywhere else other than this outstanding setting.

Thank you Sandhills, for all your hard work and efforts.

My daughter started preschool in Sept 17 and after having a bad experience with a previous nursery it took a while for her to settle in but the ladies were fab with her making her feel safe and building her confidence day by day. now she is a confident little lady who has made lots of new friends, loves learning and doing all the activities they do. She loves attending preschool and doesn't want to come home when its time. All the staff are lovely and I shall definitely be sending her brother here next year and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nursery/preschool :)

Excellent nursery for both learning and play. My daughter is very well looked after. Staff are very good and keep you updated. Can't ask for more. I would recommend to anyone looking to use a nursery for their child. Thank you!

I looked at quite a few different nurseries before choosing this one and I'm so glad I did, my daughter loves it here and I'm so happy going back to work knowing she is happy and safe. The staff are professional and friendly. The facilities look great and clean. She is always fed well and the EYlog is great for seeing what she gets up to during the day.

My two youngest children have attended this nursery for almost two years. They've both come on leaps and bounds with confidence. The staff are hugely welcoming and it's like walking into a friends house with how comfortable they make you feel.

Both girls have learnt so much from the staff who are always more than happy to encourage and support them with anything from the normal skills right up to zipping their coats. We are updated almost every session they attend through Eylog.

This nursery provides an array of areas for the children to play and spark activity. They have a sensory room, a number of gardens with sandpits and play equipment and different rooms for different age groups. The nursery teaches the girls structure and routine but also provides them with extra skills. Last year at Forrest school my child learnt about camp fires and how to light them safely. She also had the opportunity to learn coordination and sportsmanship through Bears Coaching attending the school.

I would seriously recommend Sandhills to anyone that is looking for a nursery.

We really can't recommend this nursery enough! Our daughter previously attended a different nursery and wasn't very happy. We decided to move her to Sandhills and it really was the best decision we made! They worked closely with us as a family from day 1 to ensure the transition was made smoothly and we felt so happy to leave her in the hands of the lovely nurturing staff! The environment is always well enriched with lots of fun activities for the children to get involved in and our daughter is always bringing home lovely artwork from all the messy activities she has been doing! They plan lovely little trips and it's so nice to see pictures of our daughter out and about exploring with her friends! She has come on so much since starting and has an amazing bond with her keyworker! We really could continue to say so many more fantastic things about this nursery but this box isn't big enough! We are just truly grateful to all the staff for everything they do! Keep up the good work!

My daughter attended this nursery from the age of one until starting primary. All the staff were very friendly and taught my daughter a lot. I never had any complaints to make as they were fantastic. My daughter cried many mornings when dropping her off but the staff here were very understanding and kind. The journals were amazing too and have given a lovely keepsake for us.

All 3 of my grandchildren have and still are attending this nursery. The staff are professional enthusiastic and are always very friendly. My Grandson loves being there. He has changed so much in the time that he has attended he loves going loves playing with his friends and absolutely loves lunch time his favourite chicken curry ( When they come and stay at my house I ask him what he would like for lunch the answer is always chicken curry). He also loves the outside area and often shares with me what he has been doing during the week. My youngest daughter is having a baby and she has already decided that this is going to be the nursery her baby will attend. I couldn't recommend enough. Thank you to all management and staff you're doing a fab job keep up the good work!

Hardworking and dedicated staff who provide a caring, welcoming and rich learning environment. My children didn't settle in their previous nursery, however they get excited about going and seeing their amazing key-workers!

My son has ASD and needs extra support and can be very challenging. Sandhills Day Nursery has provided him with all the help he needs to develop social skills his ability to communicate, his behaviour and understanding of his emotions. The team there are friendly, helpful and supportive. It was most certainly the right choice for my son and we are all very happy with Sandhills Day Nursery.

Really excellent nursery, with very professional staff. I was apprehensive as I have had a bad experience sending my 2 year old to a different nursery before, but I really shouldn't have been. Staff are all very warm and friendly, and excellent with the children.

My son comes home with things he has made whilst hes been there, which is great because they do a lot of messy, crafty things (saves my house getting so messy) :-) Also there is a fabulous garden area with sandpit and lots of other things for the children to do and explore.

They keep you updated on what your child has been up to and if they have any concerns etc.

All in all excellent staff and venue, resulting in an excellent nursery.

Two of my children attended Sandhills nursery and at both times I can not thank the staff enough for the things they did for my children. Very dedicated staff, always with a smile on the face, lovely family atmosphere. :)

Sandhills is great with my daughter. They settled her in beautifully and always keep her occupied. And she loves the dinners they make, she never comes home hungry and she's made plenty of friends. Her speech is developing really well since she has been there.

Friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere within whole nursery both of my children go to this nursery a I have never had a problem with anything there. They always have great patent partnership and always care for the children in the best ways they can.
