The nursery has been fantastic. They really helped settle my child in. She loves going and playing with her friends including her big nursery friends (the room staff!). The outdoor facilities are excellent as is forest school which they make sure all of the older children are able to attend once a week.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
One of my main things was a nursery with good communication. We've been at Arnhall now since November 2023 and I've always felt heard and the communication is excellent. Would never go anywhere else now.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
Great little nursery. My children are very happy there. The staff are all really friendly and helpful. The children have lots of outside time, walking and playing in the forest. My children always come back having had a great time, they love all the games and songs and learn lots too!
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
I could not recommend Arnhall Day Nursery enough! The passion the staff have is second to none. I have met multiple members of staff who work within my child's room that is able to tell me exactly how he has got on that day and how he is settling in as a whole.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
My son goes to Arnhall and he really loves it. The stuff is great and we feel that we are part of a big family. They spend a big part of their time outdoors but with the right clothes. My daughter will be there soon.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
My daughter loves going to nursery. The staff are nurturing, fun and committed and always look to provide the best care possible for all the children. They provide a wide variety of activities and always try to make use of the excellent outdoor space. Great nursery.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
Always recommend Arnhall to friends looking for childcare. All Staff provide brilliant teaching skills, every member of staff will approach my children with a full smile, knowing their name and knowing how to interact with them. Daily updates from staff let me know what my children are learning/progressing throughout the week. Outdoor space is constantly developing and providing new challenges for the children. The varied diet is also highly important for my children and tasting and eating new foods every week. Each week is a new adventure at Arnhall.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
The team at Arnhall keep us in the loop and we feel so connected to them.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
Fantastic nursery, filled with positive experiences for our daughter. The team at the nursery take great care to ensure the kids have a fun and educational experience each day. Couple this with fantastic food and a brilliant outdoor setting, needless to say, our daughter is very happy.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
Excellent nursery, both of my children are/have attended here and we couldn't ask for much more. Staff go the extra mile to make sure the children are happy, settled and learning in preparation for school. So friendly, open and helpful.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
They are kind, supportive and caring.
He loves nursery days and we have no concerns about sending him in.
The food is amazing, some days I am jealous of the lunch options.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
My son loves going to this nursery and as his mum, I don't have to worry at all about him. The staff are brilliant, he has a close bond with everyone in his room and specifically his key worker. They do lots of different activities and take them outdoors as much as the weather allows. I can see the impact they are having on his learning every day. The staff clearly really care about my son and I know he is in incredibly safe hands. Booked my unborn son in for a place already!
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
Amazing nursery in a beautiful setting. My little one is always happy to go in and play with all her friends. The frequent updates on the family app during the day give peace of mind that she is being well cared for. The staff are all fantastic too and have a great bond with my little one.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
The outdoor environments are the perfect mix of traditional classroom and forest school which meets our families' needs perfectly.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
Both my children have used Arnhall and I think it's excellent. Caring, sensible staff and fun activities, including lots of outside time - make it really enjoyable for the children. My daughter loves attending. Also really useful that there are early drop off and later pick up options around work times, which I find invaluable. Would highly recommend it.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
My daughter has absolutely thrived at Arnhall, she is growing in confidence every day and genuinely loves the carers in her room. The mix of indoor and outdoor learning, the use of materials available and the creativity and kindness of the staff make me very happy to hand over my little one each day.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
The nursery staff is very friendly and attentive creating a close relationship with children and listening to feedback from parents. Our key worker has really helped with our son's confidence and nurtures his skills.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
Wonderful nursery, can't fault it! Lots of messy play, outdoor exploration, learning and development. The staff are excellent and the facilities are great. Any issues dealt with in a timely and supportive manner.
Thank you for your kind words and your continued support.
My children are so well looked after, and I can tell this by how pleased they are to go to nursery. They're always given a variety of activities, opportunities and adventures; they're fed well and their general wellbeing is carefully considered and nourished on a daily basis. The outdoor learning areas are great and staff seem happy to be there.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Team Arnhall.
My daughter has attended Arnhall for over 2 years and loves it. The outdoor space is fantastic and the rooms are great too with lots of sensory activities, carefully thought out games and play and she always greets me at the end of the day with a huge smile having had a "good day". The staff are fab; they go above and beyond to provide a fun and caring environment for the children and even do beautiful hairstyles! We have seen her develop through nursery with her social and verbal skills in particular. I would recommend Arnhall and we haven't had any negative experiences. Thank you to the staff for creating a wonderful place that my daughter loves and looks forward to.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Team Arnhall.
