First Class Nursery Ltd

This is my second child to attend First Class Nursery and she is loving it! Always excited when it's a nursery day! Even when she was a bit wobbly at separating from us, she was quickly soothed by staff who were so nurturing towards her. Grandparents have been collecting her for the first time recently and all have been impressed and very complimentary about the detailed information they get told about her day.

Always kept up to date with what topics they are focusing on via their social media page, at the nursery door during pick up or via the learning journal which is amazing. Communication is usually great between staff and parents. Overall a great nursery that my little one misses on days he isn't there!

Brilliant nursery, always gives a comprehensive review of the day, what has been eaten, the activities carried out and the all-important nap times. The parent portal is great with details on what is being learned and photos. The ability to update with home activities is great especially as nursery relates this back to their activities during the day.

We moved our son to First Class Nursery when he was two and a half as his then nursery could not offer funded places when he turned three. It was a difficult decision and we struggled to find somewhere we liked until we went for a visit here. Despite my apprehension about how he would settle somewhere new, he adapted and came along so much in a few short weeks of being here! We have been so pleased with the education and support provided, and the care and professionalism by all the staff we have encountered (both permanent and bank). It has been great to hear and see the progress he is making and he speaks so fondly of the friends he has made as he does the staff that take care of them. Our son loves the community interactions with the local care home, and visits to the parks, farm and even local shops. It’s great how this nursery thinks outside the box to help the children develop.

We viewed multiple nurseries before going with First Class Nursery. They were genuinely interested during the tour and didn't seem like our child would be just another tick on an excel sheet; our son was initially hesitant to start nursery (as I guess most kids are) but has since come on leaps and bounds thanks to the careful nurturing of the staff; he gets genuinely excited in the morning when he knows he is going in (even if he doesn't show that at the door when he's handed over)! I would recommend First Class in a heartbeat, and it is fantastic to be kept up to date through the daily diary of what's going on and regular photos from the staff.

Excellent nursery providing a caring environment with great variation in activities to allow children to learn. The staff is very friendly and takes the time to go over the day's highlights. My child has not once complained about having to go to nursery in the nearly two years he's gone there now and always seems to enjoy their day. I'm planning to have my second child attend this nursery as well. 4/5 stars regarding cleanliness as our child has got very dirty hands when coming back from nursery sometimes, so maybe an extra washing of hands a day would help. But certainly not an environment which isn't clean! 4/5 stars regarding management since the last management change appears to have resulted in less contact with parents. I have yet to meet the new management. Otherwise a very organised nursery.

My son has attended all year and has developed really well at this nursery. The staff are really friendly and my son enjoys going here. The trips to a farm are particularly good and my son really enjoys these.

We have nothing but positive things to say about First Class Nursery. The staff always have time to discuss any worries we may have, as well as just a general catch-up of what they've been doing that day. I love seeing the photographs showing what fun activities he's been up to on the private Facebook page. The food is always a hit with my son too and he tries lots of foods that he wouldn't dream of trying at home.

Our experience with First Class Nursery was excellent. The staff are very attentive and enthusiastic. Our son loves them all equally. Communication is prompt and detailed. We received regular updates on learning and progress towards goals. The setting is lovely too, small and intimate, next to great outdoor activities such as a playground, the river path and woodlands, plus the Heritage Centre is just a short walk away.

We moved to the area and visited a few nurseries for our 2-years-old son. First Class Nursery is a bit far from our house, but we really liked the initial tour, and the information we were given so we decided to go for it. I am glad that we went for First Class Nursery because our son had an amazing time. The staff is so friendly and professional. I would strongly recommend First Class Nursery.
