The Garden House Nursery

Our children could not have a better start on their journeys as lifelong learners and we recommend the nursery unreservedly.

The Garden House Nursery School has the most friendly and welcoming environment, you couldn't ask for more. My grandchildren continue to enjoy their time there, learning and developing rapidly. The staff team are caring, having a genuine interest in all the children and how best to meet their needs. My grandchildren are both very different and I see the enthusiasm they both have when going to nursery. I can only hope that their enthusiasm for learning continues throughout school and their future teachers take that approach that the staff at The Garden House consistently apply. Ofsted say 'Outstanding' and we (my grandchildren and I) agree.

I am extremely impressed by the attitude of staff and their willingness to care for children and take an interest in what my child has done throughout the nursery day. My child has really developed since being at The Garden House and has progressed quite rapidly since moving up to Piglets. The activities and learning that The Garden House provides is so varied and ahead of other nurseries, tennis coaching, outdoor herb garden.

My oldest boy attended from 2012-2014 and my youngest is currently in his second year at the Garden House. It is a caring and nurturing environment and both my boys have thrived there. My wife and I both feel that our children are simply not being watched or occupied - they are being genuinely cared for and stimulated. They staff are lovely and frequently go above and beyond - one staff member even took my wife to A&E when she injured herself on the way to nursery! The email based feedback system, which gives a detailed report on your child's day, is also a great new innovation. When our youngest finishes at the Garden House we will deeply miss both the place and the people who make it such a special nursery.

A wonderful nursery. My son has been attending since about 10 months old and is now nearly 3. The daily activities are stimulating and fun as well as being educational and my son is thriving here. He always has a smile on his face when I collect him and he enjoys telling me what he has been doing that day. We have even had tears on the way home as he wanted to stay at nursery! I would highly recommend this nursery.

Perhaps I can only add to that observation. This is a nursery that has an atmosphere as close to a home as is possible: where children are encouraged to grow and develop, in a caring yet disciplined environment. It is a nursery where I am happy to leave my child; it is a nursery I trust; it is most certainly a nursery I cannot recommend enough.

My daughter who is going to be 5 in September and will be starting school absolutely loves this nursery and so do I . From the first day she started she has really come on in leaps and bounds , she never stops talking about what they do and as soon as you step through the door it has a nice welcoming feel and atmosphere , the staff are brilliant and have took amazing care of my daughter when she has been feeling down or under the weather, I would 100% reccommend this nursery.
