Review from Emma T (Mother of Child) published on 18 May 2017 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience

We could not be more pleased with how our daughter has got on at this nursery. She loves going so much that she asks to go at the weekends. The staff are all so lovely, so helpful and really make the children feel like they're at a home from home. As a parent, you want to know that your child is always safe and I got that feeling as soon as I stepped in Nene Valley. I'm just sad that my daughter doesn't get to spend more time here. She has learnt and developed so much and I can't think Nene Valley enough!

Review from G M (Father of Child) published on 21 April 2017 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience

We felt very apprehensive about leaving our first child with what, in short, are total strangers. Not only do the staff make our daughter feel safe and welcome, but us as well. They have always friendly, knowledgeable and polite but have really helped our daughter cone out of her shell. Basically, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to anybody and hope that the same experience continues when she moves up a room.

Overall Experience
My son started Nene Valley in October and found it very hard to come, but all the staff within the room were very comforting and helped him to become happier at nursery.

He now comes into nursery very happy and playing and talking to all staff and children.

Overall, I am very happy with my son's nursery and he seems very happy there.
The staff are caring and work hard to ensure my son is settled in at each room change.

He eats so well there too.

Review from J H (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2017 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
The menu is excellent, my son is a fussy eater so the variety of food offered helps to encourage him to try new things. Also, the recipes are available for me to cook the same meals at home (when he's eaten it well at nursery).

The staff are excellent, they understand the developmental needs of the children and adapt to their individual needs, recognising that some children need extra support with certain things. The rooms are spacious and well equipt with sensory and play activities which get changed and swapped around with different themes each week. My son is very happy and enjoys going to nursery and I trust the staff provide care for him to a very high standard.

Review from Dan G (Father of Child) published on 7 December 2016 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
We drop our daughter off excited about the day ahead and to a chorus of welcomes from staff. When we pick her up, she's happy and exhausted from a day of free flow indoor/outdoor structured play. She's making friends and learning to share and negotiate.

We've loved seeing the photos and commentary online.

We are excited to see the accelerated development when our second child joins in the spring.

We always feel that they really take care of her, and us!

Overall Experience

My son has been coming here now for 3 years and is a big part of his life, the staff are very good and like an extended family to him, they always looking for ways to help him develop and are always very friendly. Facilities are great and my child only eats his dinner at nursery which shows just how good the food on offer is. Special mention to one carer who my child adores and always talks about.

I have been very happy with the level of care my two children receive here. I have absolutely no concerns regarding their safety. My daughter has additional needs and they are amazing with her. I cannot recommend this nursery more highly.

Overall Experience
My daughter has been at the nursery since she was a year old (now 18 months). The staff have been excellent, giving daily updates with regard to how she's got on.
Any problems, I was contacted, although they always tried to keep her there unless it was more serious.

As a mum I have always felt the staff looked after her as I would and would definitely recommend the nursery to others.
