All staff at Holyrood Castleton are amazing! I felt immediately at ease from our first visit and it is clear my son loves it there. There is a real family atmosphere and parents are regularly included in activities or asked for feedback.

Review from Alix E (Mother of Child) published on 30 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has attended Holyrood Castleton since February 2017. She adores all of the staff and enjoys all of the fun activities that are set out each day. She had developed very well since attending the nursery physically and socially. Seeing her happy and smiley as she goes to play with her friends in the setting is an absolute dream and I am confident in leaving her in the care of the lovely ladies that care for her on the days she attends. Thank you, girls, for making me, my daughter and her daddy very happy x

Overall Experience

My little boy attends this nursery and has for almost 1 year now! It was one of the biggest decisions I had to make with who I was going to leave him with when I went back to work but I can honestly say I absolutely chose the best place!!!! He loves every day at nursery and has come on so much since being there! He cheers every morning when we pull up and all the staff are always so welcoming and on hand to help any way they can! For anyone looking for a nursery, I would definitely recommend Holyrood day Nursery Castleton!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at the nursery for almost a year and I am so happy that I chose Holyrood Castleton for her. My daughter has come on so much since attending the nursery and loves going during the week. You can really see that the time she spends at the nursery is helping her become the confident little girl she is turning out to be.

The staff are fantastic with her and the other children and the nursery is a great environment. I would highly recommend Holyrood Castleton to anyone who is thinking about sending their child there. I can't thank them enough for the work they do and the time they spend with my daughter.

Couldn't wish for a better place for my daughter to go to. I have had all 3 of my children go to the same place. We live out of Rochdale but wouldn't think of taking my daughter to another nursery.

Feedback provided following the most recent parents evening was listened to and acted upon almost immediately. Fantastic service by the management team!

Also, great to see changes made to the menus, I think the new meals are proving very popular!

Review from Ruth S (Mother of Child) published on 1 December 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The nursery is everything we, as parents, could wish for great care and management. The food I have heard from my daughter is very good and healthy. I also think the care and education of the nursery staff are fantastic. My daughter really enjoys attending and we have no concerns. Lastly, she has come on leaps and bounds in confidence which is partly down to the nursery. Overall the nursery is really clean, tidy and lots of fun things and toys for development.

Overall Experience

Holyrood Day Nursery is great. My child has been coming here since he was 8 months and I am very happy with the care provided over the last 2 1/2 years. My child has developed into a confident and happy person. He has good numeracy skills and great social interaction. Nursery lets him express himself confidently and well.

Overall Experience

My grandson started Holyrood Day Nursery in November 2014- like any parent I was initially apprehensive leaving him, I had nothing to worry about. The staff were and still are brilliant. My grandson looks forward to going every day, he loves it! They eat a varied healthy diet and the activity structure is well balanced with learning and play. I looked at a few nurseries locally but am happy I chose the right one in Holyrood Day Nursery. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

Review from Angie M (Father of Child) published on 18 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Everyone has always been very pleasant and easy to talk to. My child's key person has always had time to listen to any issues and supported any outcomes. The nursery manager is personable and easy to talk to which in my opinion is very important. The key person and supervisor in pre-school really enable the children to be prepared for Big School.

Overall Experience

I have been using this nursery for 8 years now. They have been great with all my children. The nursery is very well managed. Staff are great. There is always lots going on for the children i.e. activities and I am kept up to date with my child's observations also everything is filled so I can see my child's progress which is great. My child will be starting school next year so will be quite sad to not be using the nursery anymore after all these years!
