Review from Valerija P (Mother of Child) published on 5 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Dedicated and professional staff. Children are well looked after and are engaged in a wide range of activities.

Staff are well aware of the needs of each child, and the feedback parents get is extensive, very detailed and on a daily basis. We are very lucky our daughter was accepted and in October - our son will start this nursery as well.

Overall Experience

Spring Highfield are phenomenal and I've had full confidence in them from day one. My daughter started at six months old and has absolutely flourished in the last 18+ months, with caring, engaged, outstanding staff. The setting itself is open and always feels welcoming, with lots of spaces to play and explore.

Overall Experience
We would thoroughly recommend Spring Nursery at Highfield. They have helped our one year old settle in so well and she always runs in happily each morning.

The staff are very knowledgeable and caring. They do varied and interesting activities with the children and find creative ways to help the children learn. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

Review from Jade T (Mother of Child) published on 13 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter absolutely loves her time at nursery. I love catching her playing when I collect her and seeing how content she is when she is there.
The staff are lovely and always greet her with a cuddle which she sometimes needs first thing, the facilities are great and she loves time outside.

We were worried when we first enrolled her after I returned to work but after a few weeks she settled in with no problems. She naps well, eats more than she does for us and is happy. The app is so helpful for hand over and the little updates are very reassuring. Would 100% recommend it.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has been attending Spring Highfield for just over two years now and we are really happy with the level of care, commitment and interaction she receives here! The staff are lovely, especially the managers and are always available to address any concerns and alert us of any issues/concerns they have. It was a big decision to choose a nursery for our daughter, but we have always felt happy with our decision and are delighted with her development thus far. Huge thank you to everyone at Spring, we really appreciate everything you do!

Overall Experience

My son started at Spring when he was ten months old, he transitioned so well. All of the staff are excellent, so loving, caring and are really passionate about his development. He absolutely loves going to nursery and leaves happy. I’m so relieved that we found such an amazing place for our son to learn through play and who are giving him the best start in a day care setting.

Review from Jayne G (Mother of Child) published on 13 December 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Spring Nursery Highfield has been the only nursery we have felt 100% comfortable leaving our daughter. We have a wonderful relationship with all the staff, which entails us trusting the management of the nursery fully. We are grateful for how kind, supportive and encouraging the staff are to us as a family. Our daughter loves going to nursery, has made friends, loves the staff and enjoys her meals and activities.

Couldn't ask for anything more!

Review from Sophie K (Mother of Child) published on 10 October 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This nursery is overall brilliant, especially in the settling-in process of my little girl, who started at the beginning of this month. The guidance and reassurance given to both myself and my little girl are second to none. The staff members are so patient and pleasant, and the rooms are filled with many wonderful, fun and educational toys, which are helping with the continued development of my daughter.

Review from Charlotte O (Mother of Child) published on 10 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter never had any fuss going to the nursery; she loved it, always happy to go and came out with a skip. The staff are so loving and friendly, and in no doubt, giving our babes the care we would give. I love how they have an app where we can see how they are getting on development-wise and photos of their time. We are only thankful that our daughter has had the opportunity to become more herself through the planned play and support. She is a confident young babe ready to take on school nursery. Thanks again, highly recommend it!

Overall Experience

I and my daughter have had a great experience with Spring nursery. All staff are lovely, friendly and so helpful, especially three ladies, which I was in contact with them more than other staff. They have a variety of indoor and outdoor activities, which my daughter loves, and learned so many things.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at the nursery since 2017 and leaving for reception starting September 2021. The staff there have been really good with my daughter all-round, and with their dedication, she has grown in every aspect. They have been nothing short of amazing, and my daughter has loved every moment there.

Review from Rachel T (Mother of Child) published on 28 January 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started attending the nursery in the summer of 2020 after the initial lockdown in March, she has some delays in her development and also suspected ASD, she has made great progress with her development since she started at the nursery, she has made some friendships and always enjoys her days there. My 11-year-old son also attended this nursery when he was little. The staff are lovely, and my daughter always comes home exhausted but full of chatter from her day of activities.

Reply from Eleanor Borrowdale, Operations Manager at Spring Nursery Highfield

Thank you for your lovely review, Rachel. It is lovely to see the progress she has made since she started with us.

I recommend Spring Nursery. My little boy has learned so much with his teachers. His speech is much better, he can have a full conversation. He loves to play with his friends and he loves going into nursery.

Lovely staff, my son has been going here since he was about 15 months. He always enjoys his time there and comes home very happy. Very accommodating for working parents.

Recently they have been very nurturing as he has moved up to the bigger room.

The staff are fantastic, they have helped bring on the development of my daughter immensely. They helped bring her out of her shell and she isn't as shy with new people. She now looks forward to going to nursery.

The staff are absolutely fantastic. My son comes out of the nursery and tells me all about his day. He always comes out with a smile and says he's had fun. Staff have really brought him on leaps and bounds. I can't thank them enough. Will definitely be enrolling our second son in the near future.

Review from Rachael W (Mother of Child) published on 9 March 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son started here when he had just turned 1, the staff in the baby room really took the time to help him settle. It didn't take him long to go in excited to see the staff and his friends and say "bye Mammy" The parent app the nursery uses is so lovely, I receive updates on his daily routine and pictures and observations of what he is getting up to. I can share pictures too from home which is nice to share his experiences. In January he moved up into the Red Kite Room, the staff were really supportive in the transition. He loves all the different activities and opportunities he has and is always excited to tell me what he has been doing and his language has come on so much over the last few months. It's lovely that the staff care so much and share my joy in his achievements!
