Thank you for taking the time to write this review. Best regards, Jane.
The staff and management at the Academy I feel always but the children's learning and well-being as a top priority. The transition from baby room to toddler to pre-school is seamless and all the staff endeavour to make the journey an easy one. I cannot praise them enough they are the best. We feel like an extended family.
Thank you, Katie - we love having you all as a family. Best regards, Jane.
My daughter absolutely loves it here. All pre-school practitioners are excellent. She has been so well set up for school in September. Thank you.
Thank you Emma - we love having your daughter. Best regards, Jane.
An excellent nursery, staff are really helpful and kind. My son loves attending and I have been really pleased with his care and how his learning needs are encouraged in terms of his physical, social, emotional and intellectual development.
Both my children have had a great time at nursery and the staff have been superb with them.
They have made lots of new friends and always have a smile on their faces when I've collected them. I have every confidence in the nursery and feel my children are safe.
They, as staff, have also ensured they have developed as children and are at a good stage ready for school.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review.
She's very well looked after in a lovely, friendly and calm atmosphere.
Thank you Lauren, we love having her.
My granddaughter really enjoys coming to nursery. She likes all the staff, she has come on really well with her development and has learnt a lot, her language skills have really come on and the staff are amazing with her.
Thank you for your lovely comments. It is equally important to our team to get views from grandparents.
Excellent nursery with caring staff. Our son is very happy and learning lots. No complaints.
Since moving up to the toddler room, his speech has come on. Although he's very quiet at nursery, the staff have assured me that they are going to work on this with him by finding what his interests are and doing one to one work with him surrounding them.
I always highly recommend The Academy to friends as it has been excellent for my son.
The nursery is very organised and over the school holidays, organised daily activities, taking the children on lots of exciting outings. The nursery gets involved in significant events, such as Chinese New Year and Red Nose Day. This helps the children learn about significant events and cultures, giving them a good understanding.
Both our children have been here and have loved every minute. All the staff are brilliant and do a great job preparing the kids for school. I would highly recommend The Academy.
Staff are always friendly and they all know his name. You can see how passionate they all are about their jobs. I would definitely recommend this nursery.
They have also made us feel welcome as parents and almost part of the family.
All the staff are fantastic and take great care of our child. He enjoys being there and the nursery keep him entertained with varying play activities. The meals are freshly prepared and the children can always have more if they are still hungry. We are kept up to date on what he’s been up to via a daily report and parents evenings are quite regular. I would highly recommend this nursery.
The staff are amazing, so friendly and have great knowledge of all the children. Resources available are constantly changing, providing stimulation for the children.
Nothing but praise. My daughter has been attending since she was 1 year old and now coming towards the end of her time in pre-school. Care throughout has been excellent and she's never once said she's not happy at the Academy or doesn't like it anymore. Lots of activities and trips out have provided new experiences. Staff are excellent, provide food feedback at the end of each day and take an interest in my daughter. I feel staff get to know her well and fo go above and beyond. Would, without doubt, recommend to others. She prefers the food at nursery to mine.
They take the children to the park or to the local facilities which my son really enjoys.
Friendly staff with an insight and understanding of children and their needs, they showed that they had the ability to encourage children to make friendships and behave well. Outdoor play and learning is always promoted which my child loved. My child was always involved in a range of activities throughout the week and is a wonderful child, I believe as a result of the contribution the nursery made.
We miss you all very much and thank you for your review.
The Academy has been wonderful at supporting our son in the last 2 years. He loves coming to nursery and is progressing really well. All the staff are friendly and welcoming and we couldn't be happier.
Thank you Robbie we really appreciate your comments
