Review from C H (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has attended for as long as they've been open. Our experience has been all positive. The staff, environment, structures, resources, food and children create a great space for under 5's to develop. The nursery ethos encourages independence, curiosity and a love for learning. The staff care about the children and treat them with respect (and plenty of patience). As far as nurseries go it is a calm environment. I'm certain my daughter has benefitted from her early years at Rocking Horse and will confidently go forward to school.

We feel very lucky to have such a good nursery available on our doorstep. I don't think we could ask for any more.

Overall Experience

We were really nervous about our son starting nursery as he is a very anxious little boy but the experience has been wonderful.

He loves going to pre-school and we have really noticed him calming down and concentrating more. The staff are absolutely brilliant with him and it is a really great setting.

I couldn't recommend it more and am so much more confident about him starting school next September now.

Review from L G (Mother of Child) published on 30 November 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We tried several nurseries before we finally found Rocking House Montessori Nursery. Our child didn't settle well at any of them. Thankfully we found Rocking Horse and our child has settled extremely well. The attention that the staff give the children is exceptional. The activities they provide are highly educational and well thought through, so they deliver a multitude of benefits for the children. I love that it's focused on following the interests of individual children yet they manage to turn these into group activities too. An exceptional experience for both parents and children.
