Review from Chloe S (Mother of Child) published on 27 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been going to the nursery in the baby rooms since April 2025. He started when he was 11 months and has had a great time - the staff are attentive to the children, not just for meal time and nappy change time but to help in their development and learn what the babies do and don't like, and can and can't do. They are chatty and have really gotten to know my son.
Any problems at the nursery are quickly resolved - accident forms, the app is also used to communicate on my son's health immediately rather than waiting till the end of the day.
The office staff are also excellent and have guided us through accessing funded hours and kindly advised us on processes on how to change my son's attending days.

The kitchen staff are excellent and have helped me construct a vegan menu for my son. There was no problems liasing this through the office staff.

Overall Experience

I have had both my daughters at Echoes and it is a wonderful nursery. I cannot speak more highly of the amazing staff. They are what makes this nursery so great and they work so hard! They have looked after my girls with such care. My daughter runs in to the nursery with a smile on her face , hugging the staff so I know she loves it there. It is clean, open with large windows so you can see in to each room which I love. I feel that my daughter is safe and well looked after here which is the main thing. They have a large outside area which my daughter enjoys and I love receiving regular updates about her daily activities! A brilliant nursery!

Review from Sophie H (Mother of Child) published on 1 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The standards of this nursery is impeccable! The bonds all the staff have with my child is amazing, my child can be handed to any one in a morning and they show so much care and compassion to him. My child has some dietary requirements and the cook is amazing at providing an alternative that is similar to what the other children are eating where possible. They have individual care and health care plans for each child who may have needs/health issues, which every staff member can read so are all informed which puts me at peace of mind knowing that everyone understands what's to do with my child's health needs. My child's key person keeps me very informed about my child's day at the handovers and via the app. The garden is a big lovely outdoor space and I love seeing pictures of him playing outside! I am happy with the care and development of my child, who now he attends Echoes, he has come on leaps and bounds since starting with them at the end of March!

Review from Claire T (Mother of Child) published on 11 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The deceitful tactics this nursery employs is truly mind boggling. The management of this nursery needs a serious review & change. We were notified that we don't have to pay the consumables charge 24th of March @2pm thru the app, not via email & we were only given until the 28th @12pm to opt out. Why the 28th & not the end of the term you may ask?! We all know The 2 documents provided (THRU THE APP not via email), 1 document regarding what we can give our own children to eat was 3 pages, and the other regarding the consumables information - 7 pages! They told us of the deadline on the 4th of the 7 pages!! Important information they wedged right in the middle of 7 pages of information, instead of being upfront and clear about it, GAVE US ONLY 3 DAYS TO OPT OUT ON THE LAST WEEK OF THE TERM!!! Its funny how vastly different they remind parents about government funding that Echoes will receive compared to how they notify parents of money they may save and in turn Echoes will lose out on.

Reply from Linzie Goff, Operations Manager at Echoes Nursery

The communication published to all parents via our Famly app was clear, transparent and comprehensive giving parents all the detail required to make an informed decision regarding their consumables. We have received overwhelming feedback from all other parents in support of the action we have...

Overall Experience

They've worked hard to help a lot of kids settle after their previous nursery was unexpectedly closed. The nursery team were great with helping our son feel safe and cared for. They also send us meaningful updates on our son's development without feeling like they're jumping through perfunctory hoops.

We are so grateful for the wonderful experience our child has had at this nursery. The staff have been amazing in creating a nurturing environment. When he faced challenges with social interactions, their support and patience were invaluable. They guided him gently, fostering his social skills and boosting his confidence. Their dedication to each child's development is truly impressive. Thank you to all the wonderful staff for making a positive impact on his growth and happiness!

Overall Experience
Our son has been going to nursery since January 2024 and instantly we were made to feel at ease knowing our baby was safe.
We have watched him progress with his movement, speech, eating habits and social skills and we couldn't be more grateful.

The attention we feel our son gets is extremely comforting and we know he is looked after and striving as a little boy.

Overall Experience

I can't recommend Echoes Nursery highly enough. Both my daughter and son attend and the staff have just been amazing with both of them. All the staff have been so kind and will go out of their way to ensure both child and parent feel happy and at ease. I'm updated daily with pictures of the activities that have taken place each day and a write up about their learning progress through these activities. I feel so fortunate to have both my children in such an amazing facility with equally amazing people. Thank you Echoes!

Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with the care our daughter receives at this nursery. From the moment we enrolled her, the staff have been incredibly attentive and nurturing. It's evident that they genuinely care for her well-being and take the time to understand her individual needs. The facilities are top-notch, providing a safe and stimulating environment for her to learn and grow. The regular updates and communication from the staff give us peace of mind throughout the day. We highly recommend this nursery to any parents seeking a warm, caring, and enriching environment for their child.

Echoes have provided the best care I could have hoped for to our daughter. She has been going since she was 7 months old and will stay until she starts school. She adores everyone who works there and has made some wonderful little friends. Her development has been fantastic, thanks in large part to the enriching activities at Echoes and their attention to each child's individual needs. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Overall Experience

Both my children received excellent care at Echoes. The facilities, activities and ethos are outstanding, but what makes this nursery truly exceptional are the staff. They are dedicated, professional and friendly, always ready to go the extra mile. My children enjoyed the hands-on activities and the trips most. They always come home with lots to tell and they miss the nursery if they are away for a while. There’s an on-site kitchen providing balanced and nutritious meals. The staff and motivation are high thanks to good management.

Our daughter loves going to Echoes. All the staff are great; really approachable and lovely. They always keep us up to date with her progress, her daily activities, and if there have been any problems (which there rarely are). The space itself is great too - with the age groups separated out into different rooms, with an outdoor area where they're able to mix sometimes. I'd highly recommend this nursery to any new parents.
