Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with Chestnuts Day Nursery. From the start the staff have been amazing, genuinely caring. It's clear they truly know him, what he loves, what he doesn't. Every day he comes home chatting non stop about what he has done with his friends. The nurturing environment has helped him grow in confidence. I can't recommend Chestnuts enough. Thank you everyone!

Overall Experience

I couldn't be happier with the care and attention my child receives. They are amazing with him and he loves the workers. He always comes home happy and cleaner than I've sent him. They show what he is getting upto online and I can see he is happy in the pictures. The food they provide is great and routine there suits him. They give feedback each day when collecting my child and he shouts the workers names while he plays at home happily. He learns animal noises and flash cards, I can tell when I pull new ones out at home and he already knows them and he gets lots of fun time inside and out, with great learning activities.

Overall Experience

My daughter has recently started at Chestnuts at 8 months. This is a hard time for any parent but the staff at Chestnuts have made it so easy. The staff are so friendly and know their stuff, very reassuring and flexible to your needs and requests. My daughter has settled in so well and has formed relationships with staff and children in her room. I'm so grateful to all the girls at Chestnuts for all they have done to continue to do. I give Chestnuts a very strong 5 stars.

We could not recommend Chestnuts any more highly! Chestnuts is a fantastic nursery where our daughter is thriving. All staff are highly trained and this shows in their outstanding thorough care and learning our daughter receives. Our daughter's key worker knows our daughter well and has developed such a strong and positive relationship. The management of the nursery is very effective in supporting children, parents and staff.

Review from Claire A (Mother of Child) published on 7 May 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We have been with Chestnuts for 3 years now. My eldest started at 18 months and his little brother joined him last May. In that time, we have continuously been impressed by the care, support and focus on all aspects of wellbeing that Chestnuts provide. Our children have built strong relationships with staff and other children and been empowered to grow into happy, confident individuals. We have watched as both have been challenged and exposed to the alphabet, maths, numbers, science experiments; all performed in clever, engaging ways to help the children learn whilst playing. The children here are all encouraged to call the keyworkers 'aunties', and in a very real way, they are. Chestnuts is a warm, welcoming family which offers every child the best loving environment in which to grow. Each and every member of the nursery should be justifiably proud of what they have helped to build here.

The nursery staff were very patient and understanding during my daughter's settling-in period. Now she loves going in every morning and always smiles at the mention of nursery, the lovely staff and all her friends. The activities are varied and interesting, with many different themes covered to make all events, faiths and people included.

Overall Experience

Fantastic nursery. My 18-month-old daughter has been attending for the past seven months. Every morning she goes in with a big smile on her face ad has settled in quickly. I have noticed how much she has developed since starting. All the staff are lovely, caring and helpful. I am kept up to date every day with activities she has been doing, what she has eaten, and how she has slept via the app. Would recommend it to anyone.

Overall Experience
The review was thorough and detailed. It gave us a reassuring update on progress and insight into their development.

All staff are warm and caring. They show a strong attachment to the children and are consistently engaging them and letting them explore and develop in their way. Activities are well-planned and interesting and designed to develop a range of skills. We have an excellent and strong relationship with the key worker who we fully trust. We believe our child is thriving in their care.

Review from Catherine G (Mother of Child) published on 18 July 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Fantastic nursery. My son has been attending for a year now and the staff have been consistently friendly, supportive and in tune with my son's development. The food options for him are always healthy and varied and the staff, again, were so supportive when it came to discussing expressing/storing milk when he was younger.

Overall, a brilliant nursery, we receive detailed daily updates, regular photos and development checks. That, plus the well-trained, friendly team is great. Thank you Chestnuts Day Nursery!

Overall Experience

Our daughter couldn't be happier at Chestnuts Day Nursery which I think is mainly due to the staff. She has been there since a baby and settled in very quickly. All the staff are always so happy, enthusiastic and caring. One of the reasons I chose Chestnuts was for the homely and personalised feeling you get as soon as you walk in. I couldn't recommend a better nursery!

We are extremely happy with Chestnuts as our choice of nursery for our little girl. We feel that all the staff have taken the time to get to know her personally and she absolutely loves going in! We love hearing what she's been up to during the day and communication is brilliant. The staff are all extremely professional, very friendly and always happy to fill us in on how our daughter is getting on.

Review from Leah T (Mother of Child) published on 30 December 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We are so pleased we chose Chestnuts Day Nursery for our little girl. She has only been there four months and is thriving already. The setting is clean, safe and educational. The staff are all truly wonderful. They are approachable, caring and kind individuals who really make an effort to engage and develop the children in individualised ways. The longer opening hours accommodate our working schedules. We're greeted with nothing but smiling faces at pick-up and drop-off. If we could give this nursery 10 stars, we would! Thank you, Team Chestnuts.

Reply from Christine Cambridge, Proprietor at Chestnuts Day Nursery

We are incredibly grateful that you took the time out to leave us a 10 Star review. We will share this with the team to let them know to keep up the amazing work. Thank you so much.

Review from H Q (Mother of Child) published on 26 April 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
We were nervous about our son starting nursery as he was one of the youngest in his room and a "pandemic baby" but the Chestnuts Day Nursery team were incredible and he has settled better than we could ever imagine. We love Chestnuts as it's perfectly small and every member of staff knows him well - and he's happy with everyone.

The team have cared for his food allergies and eczema so well and we're very grateful for that. We're also very grateful for that. We're also very impressed with all the activities the children do from celebrating cultural festivals to arts and crafts, he loves it.

Could not be happier with the girls at Chestnuts! Not only are they attentive, personable, caring and experienced, but also seem to enjoy what they do, which as a parent, is incredibly important! My daughter loves her time here and is growing and learning at a rapid pace, thanks to the way the ladies engage with her. Thank you, ladies!

Absolutely love Chestnuts Day Nursery!

My son loves it and has always felt at home there. There is such a friendly and caring atmosphere at Chestnuts which I think was so important to him settling in. Also, what is fantastic is I can now check on my phone what he’s had to eat and when he has slept etc. He loves the outdoors and the nursery has a great outdoor area with lots of play equipment to explore. The food is always well balanced and home-cooked, he always eats it all! They always are doing creative crafts and on special occasions will bring home bits like Christmas etc. The staff are all lovely and cannot do enough for them. Would highly recommend Chestnuts to anyone!

Our daughter has had some medical challenges prior to joining nursery and also since starting. We have been so impressed by the care and attention that has been given to her needs without making her feel negatively singled out.

She loves being there, taking part in every activity appears to be an exciting adventure and she says everyone there is her best friend.

Overall Experience

We are delighted we chose Chestnuts Day Nursery. My daughter has attended for nearly a year now and loves it. She has come on leaps and bounds since attending two days a week since 1 year of age. The staff are wonderful and provide a caring and stimulating environment for development which has been so important to us given her first year of life was spent in Covid lockdown. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chestnuts!
