Hartford Old School House Day Nursery

Very friendly, excellent staff across the board.

Outstanding nursery! Our little girl has attended since she was 7 months old, she has just turned 2 and we couldn't be happier. The staff are all fabulous and so caring! Our little girls goes in happily every day she is there and the photographs we receive daily show us what an amazing time she is having. Highly recommend!

We cannot recommend Hartford Old School House Day Nursery (Paintpots) highly enough. Both our children attended from their early years through every stage and received exceptional care and preparation for school. The balance of learning and play, along with the fantastic indoor and outdoor facilities, helped them grow in confidence and independence.

Now aged 8 and 10, they still attend the before and after school club. The team manage drop-offs and pick-ups and are always flexible with our busy, shift-working family life. From forgotten water bottles to last-minute changes, nothing is ever too much trouble.

The staff are professional, caring and truly invested in helping children thrive. Great timings, great value, and a genuine family feel - we are incredibly grateful for their continued support.

We cannot speak highly enough of the Old School House nursery. We were very nervous about our daughter starting nursery last year but the best decision we have ever made was sending her to Old School House. The staff are absolutely wonderful. They love and care for the children in the nursery as if they are their own. We receive daily updates, photos and videos on the app which, as anxious parents, really does help to put our minds at ease. The nursery do so much with the children, like crafts and trips out and our daughter has developed so much since she started. She has clearly become very attached to the staff there and has made some lovely friendships too. The nursery have also been extremely flexible and will always do everything they can to help us. We absolutely love the nursery and would fully recommend it to anyone considering where to send their children.

Sarah, Emma and all the staff are incredible! The nursery is clean, my twins are learning and entertained every day with no plastic toys and no screens but lots of interactive learning and even walks/trips outside of the nursery. The food is fresh and diverse, lots of fruit and veg. All shown to us through the app which is great as it's always up to date with activities, photos and nap times etc. Couldn't recommend a nursery more!

Hartford Old School House has been a fantastic nursery for my daughter. She has absolutely thrived in the care of the dedicated staff. Sarah and team always respond to any and all queries quickly and my daughter is greeted with a smile every morning. My daughter was born with a complex medical need and the nursery has fully supported us every step of the way. We love hearing about her day on the way home and would happily recommend Hartford Old School House.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. Our daughter Maya is now 2.5 and has been attending since just before her first birthday. She absolutely loves going in, which says everything about how safe, happy, and cared for she feels there.

The team are incredibly warm, nurturing and they always take the time to listen to any requests or concerns and are consistently responsive and supportive. Nothing ever feels like too much trouble!

We're especially grateful for how flexible and accommodating they are, which has made balancing working family life so much easier. We highly recommend Hartford day nursery to any parent looking for a nursery!

The team are inclusive, caring and accommodating. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery to any family

The food seems great in terms of variety and the little one always eats well. They do loads of crafting and themed days to keep things fresh. They even take the kids on days out sometimes which is great.

The nursery provides pictures and updates throughout the day, which really makes us feel at ease that she is having a great day. The rooms are clean and tidy and a really lovely environment for the children to thrive.

I strongly recommend this nursery to all parents.

We have been so happy with the nursery since our son started 2 afternoons in September aged 9 months. He’s settled in really well, the staff are great and really care about the children. We have seen him develop so much and can tell that he really enjoys his time there.

Hartford Old School House offers an incredibly welcoming, supportive and nurturing environment to all of the children who attend. We know that our son has an absolute blast when there and loves the activities and excursions that they go on. The staff are warm and welcoming and are always keen to let us know how he has been getting on. We feel so privileged to be able to send our son there!

I enjoy receiving regular daily updates where it’s nice to see my son enjoying his day and learning new skills.

I would recommend this nursery to anyone, and have done over the years.
