This is such a lovely nursery! My daughter has attended for over a year now and will continue until she goes to school. She has learnt and continues to learn so much. I would highly recommend the Queen of Hearts.
My daughter started at Queen of Hearts Nursery in June 2016 and due to this being my first child I felt very guilty leaving her to go to work. However, the staff made this so much easier with how caring and helpful they were. Nothing is too much trouble and they are so pleasant when you call to check on your child or email across. She loves going to nursery and has special bonds with her key carers and children in her section. The staff are brilliant and the surroundings, gardens and activities they do with the children is lovely. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since joining and this is down to such amazing staff, who I know genuinely care about her well-being and development.
Brilliant nursery!! Can't fault it.
My daughter has been attending the nursery for just over a year now and she has come on leaps and bounds with her confidence and knowledge. The nursery is such a warm setting and all the staff are friendly. My daughter loves it and talks about all the fun activities she does, especially the dance singing, French and Spanish lessons. The outside play area is great. The cook is brilliant and my daughter gets at least one hot meal a day with fruit snacks which are healthy and balanced. The nursery have been great with her dietary requirements.
The staff make me feel that my son is cared for to the highest standards and he tells me how much he likes them. I would strongly recommend this brilliant nursery!!
My 2 year old loves nursery although we sometimes have a few tears on drop off. I always love spying on him on pick up, watching him playing and having so much fun. I didn't intend on sending him anywhere else other than Queen of Hearts Nursery. The layout is great and every time he has moved to the next level I have noticed him enjoying his time there even more. All the staff are very friendly and helpful and my son loves them. What more could you want?
My daughter started at the nursery last September, she is very settled and has made lots of friends. She has thrived with the help of the wonderful staff members, developing her knowledge. She has developed her confidence and independence, hopefully preparing her for big school in September.
My daughter absolutely loves coming to Queen of Hearts Nursery and Pre-School. She has gained so many new skills and is learning so much while there. Her confidence has soared since she started. All the staff are so friendly and engaging and my daughter has a great bond with them!
Lovely friendly staff and the garden sold it to us over a year ago. Lots to do with messy play. Chefs food is great and they log how much they eat and nappy changes. My daughter is very happy there and I recommended it to my friend and they have joined also. Only down fall is the carpark, it's hard getting in and out, best to get there early for a space.
A welcoming nursery that provides nurturing and fun care. Both my children have attended this nursery and have thrived in their care. Management are supportive and welcoming, any issues raised have been dealt wth quickly and efficiently. They have understood my children well, and I would recommend this provision.
Would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone looking for quality childcare. My son has been going for 18 months and has come on so much with his development and nursery has definitely bought him out of his shell! He is also more than happy about going to nursery and all the staff are friendly and fab!
My daughter started at Queen of Hearts last month and we have been extremely impressed with the nursery from the beginning. All the staff are so friendly and welcoming, the environment is extremely homely and the outdoor space is brilliant! She absolutely loves going to nursery already!!
I knew Queen of Hearts Nursery and Pre-School was right for my daughter the minute I walked through the doors. The staff were so welcoming and it was beautifully presented. My daughter has settled extremely well and is always so excited to go into the nursery. I am really pleased with the progress she has made because the staff go above and beyond to make learning fun as well educational. I am so excited her future at Queen of Hearts.
I can't think of anywhere else I would want to send my children. The staff are friendly, caring, yet professional. The nursery itself is light, airy and immaculately kept. Activities are varied and enjoyable. Nothing is too much trouble. My only issue is that my children have to leave when they are 5. Queen of Hearts Nursery and Pre-School, can you please extend your age range to 16??
This nursery has been amazing! My daughter has never been away from me and they have put their hearts and kindness into helping her settle and feel as though she is in a safe place when I am not around. They have gone above and beyond my expectations of helping both my daughter and I settle to this big change of going to nursery!They always have smiles on their faces and and reassure you everything will be fine. Truely amazing group of people so happy I found this nursery!!
Many thanks for your review!
My child thoroughly enjoys his time at the nursery. His confidence has grown lots and he has learnt so many new skills. All credit to the staff.
My daughter started in September 2016 and has already learnt so much. Queen of Hearts is helping to nurture my daughter into the little grown up she is becoming. She loves going and shows me what they have been up to. Highly recommended adapt learning to her needs and desires.
Since attending the nursery in July my daughter has gone from strength to strength. After a week she wanted to feed herself constantly, she is far more vocal than other children we know at her age, her understanding of language is above her age group and in general, she seems to grasp things a lot better. All of which I put down to the staff and the level of attention and support they are given.
My son attends this nursery and loves it here, he has come on in leaps and bounds with his learning in language, numbers and dancing. They teach as well as having so much fun, my son frequently speaks fondly of all the staff (and children), he always eats better here than he does at home (by some miracle!) They put on shows and include parents in the child's learning as well as inviting grandparents in for special days too. If I ever have any concerns with my child the staff have always been exceptionally helpful for example my son's speech was slower than most but these guys worked with him and myself to make improvements and it showed. I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough. Lovely setting and garden to play in too.
My daughter loves going to nursery at QOH! She has formed special bonds with the lovely team in her room. I always feel like I am being listened to and that the staff care about my daughter. I have no negative comments, the nursery is exceptional.
We're very happy with the very professional way of taking care of our son. Staff are very friendly and we think this is the best nursery in the town.
