Holly Tree Montessori

The food they give the children is also really nutritional and varied

Holly tree is a fantastic nursery. Our 2 year old loves going there and looks forward to it everytime. The environment is great with a homely feeling and great outdoor area. The staff are very professional and friendly and the food is amazing. Our daughter gets very well fed!! The nursery provides a great variety of learning and play and always goes the extra mile. It's not the cheapest but are very pleased to pay what we believe our daughter is getting the best development around. Plus its close to where we live. 10/10

My son has been at Holly tree for 2 years now and has been in every room. I can't fault any staff here they are all brilliant, knowledgable and helpful. The way they have supported my son's development is incomparable. They treat each child as an individual and will always give advice if you ask. There's always activities, always engagement. I can see what my son does and eats throughout the day which helps me put my mind at rest. The food they provide is amazing, he loves it and they make special food sometimes for him due to his allergies.

I'm so glad I choose this nursery, it's perfect for my child.

Holly Tree have been incredibly patient and caring, supporting his progress at his own pace and celebrating every milestone. They have followed guidance from his physio and feeding teams, and the chef even adapted meals so he didn't miss out and could eat safely.

Everyone is so excited when he achieves something new and that means so much to us.

He has been (and continues to be) genuinely cared for and supported to thrive.

Their support has been invaluable, especially when returning to work, as it has greatly reduced our anxiety.

Holly Tree is also clean, homely and welcoming, with lovely activities that encourage learning and independence.

We are so grateful to Holly Tree and would highly recommend it.

From day 1 of our son attending Holly Tree nursery it has been clear how much everyone care's about all of the children. The nurturing and support given has helped our sons development in such a huge way. The way the children are greeted each morning using their name, and the genuine interest in home activities / life events, and those being incorporated in to free play or work cycles is so heart-warming. I cannot thank everyone enough for all they have done for my son.

My son has attended Holly Tree since he was 9 months old and is now in pre-school. The team is fantastic and extremely supportive of his development. The team are kind and the circle time activities are great. My son clearly loves it and is engaged and happy. Hollie and the team are kind, welcoming and dedicated. Both us as parents and my son have felt continually supported as we navigate some of his challenges with speech and we could not have made the progress we have without them. We were concerned that the transition to pre school would be difficult for him, however, the team have made sure he was ready and settled and he is thriving as a result. Thank you Holly Tree for your continued dedication to all of the children.

The activities they do are lovingly planned & tailored to the children's likes and interests. 5*

We are delighted with our daughters development at Holly Tree. She has developed so much during her time here so far. We love the fact that all the team know all the children. Makes it much more personal. We love the way the different rooms operate and also how the children visit different rooms occasionally to spend time with their peers. Our daughter genuinely talks about nursery all the time and loves her carers and friends. Finally, special mention to the chef. His food gets rave reviews at home and the seasonal menus look delicious. Keep up the great work everyone!!!!

Since starting with the nursery in July, Holly Tree has been fantastic. They have such clear communication, are very friendly and approachable and I feel comfortable sending my little girl to nursery. The daily updates and pictures are such a treat when I'm at work and she absolutely loves the food...the majority of food updates are "has eaten all or more than one portion"!

I have recently taken my little girl out of another nursery and started at Holly Tree and I could not recommend enough. The ratio in the room allows for really personalised care, they do such a range of activities, the menu is lovely, clothes are respected, staff are amazing and provide detailed updates including lots of pictures. There are so many events throughout the year including summer bbq, several parents evenings, grandparents days, fundraising events & christmas show. My little girl is very happy going into nursery and is learning so much here.

We have had a fantastic experience with Holly Tree Montessori Nursery since our daughter started there early last year. She loves her teachers and we've found them to be great in all of our interactions with them. It's clear that it's a very professional operation and things such as accident reporting and safeguarding are taken very seriously, which is obviously reassuring. We get daily updates via the Blossom/Ovivio app which allows us to keep in touch with how our daughter is getting on, and in general the communication from the nursery to parents is clear and effective. Overall I'm very glad that our daughter is at Holly Tree, we feel fortunate that she's so comfortable there and has a great time with her friends and teachers, and it's a big part of our life that we just don't have to worry about - thanks!

This is a warm and trustworthy setting that we would recommend to anyone considering it. :)

My daughter has been attending Holly Tree nursery since she was 11 months old. The staff made such an effort to help her get settled and now she loves it. They do so many fun activities with them and this has helped her development massively. We can see how much she has come on since starting there. The staff are all very passionate about what they do. They are caring and go the extra mile. For example they create activities based on your child's interests for the rest of the class to join in with. I would 100% recommend Holly Tree :)

We love this nursery and would recommend it to any parent.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Holly Tree. From the very first day, the staff have been so friendly and welcoming, making both us and our daughter feel completely at ease. It's clear how much they genuinely care about the children and take the time to get to know everyone individually.

We love receiving the regular updates and photos, which give us peace of mind and let us see how much fun she's having and what she's learning. In just a few months we've seen lots of progress in her speech, physical skills, emotional confidence, and social development. The staff are clearly skilled at supporting children's learning in such a natural and encouraging way. We'd highly recommend Holly Tree!

Our daughter started at Holly tree Montessori when she was 11 months old. She has settled in so well and this is down to the amazing staff that are looking after her in the baby room. She is very happy there and as first-time parents, this has made us so reassured and happy to know that she is safe and well looked after. I could not have hoped for better people to care for our daughter. The communication is fantastic, and the staff have a kind and warm nature.

My little boy started in class 2, moved to class 3, and since September has been in preschool. My little girl who is now 7 also attended Holly Tree from age 2.5 to 5 years old - and to this day she talks positively of her experience at this amazing nursery. ALL staff are warm, welcoming, kind and it's easy to see that they care deeply about the children's well-being. The transition from each class is always a smooth process and the team at Holly Tree plan meticulously to ensure the process works for the children. We are kept updated on their day through an app which is very user-friendly. The cook at Holly Tree needs a huge shout out as both my kids enjoy(ed) his meals! We chose this nursery initially because of the Montessori values they follow and it's been the best decision we've made for our children. As a mum, I feel so reassured knowing my little ones are getting the best care possible from the best team, thanks so much to all who have been a part of S&S's journey.

My child adores all her teachers, Adam the cook and Paul the nursery maintenance man.

Our daughter absolutely adores going to Holly Tree! She's been going for the last year and a half and always seems to have such a great time there. We love that she loves it so much! The staff there are really kind and friendly, always very welcoming and really great at keeping us updated on her activities. They really take time with each individual child to help them develop through making a positive and fun environment! I couldn't recommend Holly Tree and all the staff there enough!

My daughter is currently 2 and a half and has been attending since 11 months old. Holly Tree has a wonderful caring atmosphere and all the staff are wonderful. Real effort is made each day to do tasks that engage the children. My little one loves it and it has really helped her confidence and meet developmental milestones.
