Review from Shelley F (Mother of Child) published on 18 March 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
A lovely little nursery! My son has been here for about 6-months now and has settled in so quickly.

Staff are always very friendly, helpful and give good hand-overs on pickup, as well as extensive updates via the app. They have kept up so well with my son’s potty training, and he is very confident going nappy-free now. My son has made friends already, with other children as well as staff, that he talks about a lot at home. The activities and themes they choose each week are lovely, and it’s really nice to feel involved. Thank you, everyone.

Overall Experience

I am so impressed by sending my son to this nursery, throughout his 2 years here he has been so happy attending. I do not have to worry about hi happiness or safety when I go to work. He always comes home happy. His learning, speech and interaction have really come on from being around his friends and practitioners. I am updated via the app with pictures and key information. I would highly r3commend this nursery. My son will be sad when it's time for school.

Love the school. Lots of varied activities. The new wing is great. Teachers are great. Low student/teacher ratio. Cost is a little higher than closer nurseries.

Overall Experience

We were so sad to leave Nene Valley Day Nursery! It has been the home for both my sons from 12 months-4 years. They have been so happy there. The staff are so friendly and skilled at looking after the children and always have a smile on their face. The food is all home-cooked and the all-inclusive service makes life a little easier! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this nursery. It definitely deserves its outstanding Ofsted rating.

Review from L M (Mother of Child) published on 30 July 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son has spent the last 20 months in your care whilst I've worked, spanning 3 rooms. Staff have listened and respected my wishes for him and kept me informed of his progress. He is happy to attend nursery and has quickly adapted to the changes in rooms and seems to have built good relationships with the staff. I have no concerns leaving him in your care as I trust that his welfare is at the forefront of staff's mind. It would be nice if all alternatives for foods can be offered for example Soya Yogurt given when all have Yogurt although this happens it is not consistent and a 2-year-old does not understand.

Reply from Tracy Smith, at Nene Valley Day Nursery (Northampton)

Thank you for taking the time to review our nursery, I am pleased your son is enjoying the nursery. We do always endeavour to supply the closest appropriate food and we will continue to make sure this is the case moving forward. If you have any questions, please feel free to discuss this with myself further.

My Son started in Sept'18 and he is very happy to go to the pre-school. Enjoys all the activities. It's hygiene.
Thankfully never fallen sick with the flu. All his teachers are very awesome. He has favourites too.
He loves them a lot. Thank you for your services.

He made many friends and talks about them a lot at home. It's a friendly environment.

Review from Laurence K (Mother of Child) published on 15 March 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started 2 months ago and since then have made a lot of progress in his autonomy (crawls, stands up, holds his drink,...).
The staff are always smiling and welcoming.
They’re doing a lot of sensory activities and it gives me the idea to copy some at home so playtime is more fun!

Food is freshly made in the nursery’s kitchen and my son loves it.

Review from Kelly C-C (Mother of Child) published on 15 March 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

So far our daughter has been a part of the nursery since February 2019. We have had no concerns regarding the care of our daughter. Everyone is very helpful and the girls in the ladybird room are amazing. They are also so willing to support and talk about things, provide information and take great interest in each child. I did a lot of searching before committing to this nursery and visited several times which they did not mind. Due to my profession, I am on the outlook for particular things and so far I have been externally happy. We are both happy with the service, communication and support. Thank you.

The girls are brilliant. They get so much play time and 1 on 1 attention that my baby is always happy to be here.

He is very fussy at eating but they always offer more variety so that he gets his nutrition.
