My son started at Holyrood Day Nursery Astley in August after being with a childminder for 6 months. He has come on leaps and bounds after starting at the nursery. He loves spending time in the huge outdoor area and is always happy and smiling when we drop him off and pick him up. The staff in the toddler room are always very friendly and informative. The nursery is clean and presentable. The meals they provide my son sound delicious and healthy! Thank you to Holyrood Day Nursery Astley for being the best!
The staff have spent time with my son getting to know him and have assigned him a key worker based on who my son struck up a bond with.
My son loves going to nursery, often asking for the staff at home. He runs in in the mornings and gives the staff a cuddle and then happily waves me off with a kiss. At home time we often "sneak" in to see what our son is getting up to. He is always happy and is included in activities. We have witnessed the staff interacting with our son, and they are all firm but very, very fair and loving towards the children.
We only wished we had moved our son to this nursery sooner!!
We have one daughter currently at Holyrood Day Nursery Astley and one just left for school, and they both love it. The youngest actually asks to go at the weekend! The staff are brilliant, very attentive to the individual needs of the children and, most importantly, genuinely caring. I know my little ones are well looked after. The outdoor space is especially good, and the forest school sessions have been a favourite. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending!
The staff are the best and the facilities are exceptional. I reluctantly took my daughter out once her big brother started school so they could be closer together, but have recently moved her back to Holyrood as the level of the support received from the whole team is irreplaceable. I felt very fortunate and relieved that I could get her back in.
This nursery has been amazing for my son. I have no doubt about sending my second son there when his mother returns to work, after maternity leave. The staff are extremely helpful, the site is amazing with its large outdoor areas and the management team are so caring and helpful.
We found the look around very informative and she was able to answer all of our questions without any problem. The staff were interacting with our daughter and she was soon running around with the other children. The outdoor space alone was amazing and we have made the decision to move our daughter to Holyrood, she can't wait to play with the rabbits.
I cannot recommend or praise this nursery enough! They are absolutely outstanding. My daughter started this nursery when she was just 5 months old, she was the youngest baby and I was anxious about leaving her at first, I need not have worried at all. They are brilliant, my daughter loves it here, she arrives with a smile and leaves with a smile, the staff are always friendly, caring and I know that they genuinely love their jobs and those children in their care. You can see it on their faces when we arrive and when I collect her. They take time to fill you in on your child’s day, I love the diary of their day I get each day filling me in on her diet, activities and sleep times. I am completely 100% satisfied and know that I chose the best nursery. She’s coming on leaps and bounds and I just can’t thank Holyrood Day Nursery Astley enough for taking such good care of my precious daughter. Keep up the good work.
The staff are all really friendly and welcoming and remember my daughter and what she likes. its like she's never left when she goes.
A fantastic place that provides an excellent environment for my son when he's in the holiday club. Plenty to do with enthusiastic staff.
I would highly recommend Holyrood Astley. My little boy loves going to nursery. The staff go above and beyond with all the children. We are always kept up to date with what is going on within the nursery, what offers are for extra sessions etc. The parents evenings are very informative. They offer forest school, which is a fantastic opportunity for young children. The staff are a credit to Holyrood.
Fantastic nursery. Our boys love going and it has help them with their development. Every month the staff set goals to work on developing different skills. All the staff are friendly, approachable and make it feel homely. Amazing outside space.
I have 2 boys that feel very welcomed and cared for at this nursery. The staff are incredibly attentive and flexible, often going above and beyond for their youngsters. Having experienced other settings, I can say the meals, facilities and communication are second to none. The huge outside space boasts different levels of adventure including an enchanting 'forest school'. There is a real family feel at Holyrood Day Nursery Astley and I know my eldest will truly miss the staff and opportunities for fun in such a positive environment.
My daughter has absolutely LOVED going to this nursery, non-stop talking/singing about the day shes had and the people she has been with. The staff are very welcoming and attentive to the children, I couldn't have asked for more. Would recommend this nursery to everyone.
Brilliant nursery with great, friendly staff.
My daughter absolutely loves coming to nursery, especially to do forest school. The outdoor area is fantastic for the children.
All of the staff are very polite, friendly and professional.
The outdoor space and the initiatives to encourage children to spend time outdoors is brilliant.
My daughter loves that they have lots of animals.
My stepson, son and my daughter have all attended this nursery and I cannot recommend it enough. The staff are caring, knowledgeable, friendly and they really work with the parents to ensure that your child is getting everything they can from the nursery. The outside space is fantastic and is utilised in all seasons. My daughter's knowledge about gardens and nature is unbelievable for a preschooler! None of my children have had any unhappy experiences there as the attention paid to each child is second to none.
I’m happy my twins are safe and happy here. We have tried another nursery and I didn’t feel satisfied with the care, but we are really happy with Holyrood. My eldest also came 9 years ago, it was lovely then too, so I’m confident it’s consistently good.
They adore their key workers, they loved the “unicorn” they were allowed to ride, they love the outdoor activities and the fun things they learn, and story time.
There isn’t a member of staff who isn’t lovely. They eat well and are excited for days at holyrood. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.
My daughter has been going to Holyrood Astley for over eight months and really enjoys her time there. She will be sad leaving to go to preschool soon!
I think the setting is a wonderful place where children are encouraged in the outdoor area to learn about the environment and learn valuable outdoor skills such as fire making, tool use and other activities which I have never seen in any other setting. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and are very supportive and approachable.
They have lots of outdoor space for the children to safely explore and ‘be at one with nature’. It allows them the freedom to get dirty and explore - what child doesn’t want to do that.
The team of staff and management make sure each child is safe and secure and they keep the children stimulated throughout the day with new ideas and activities.
The children seem to be happy to be there and it’s a credit to the management.
Brill place for a child to develop.
Well done.
