Review from K D (Mother of Child) published on 9 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have had two children attend Abbey Nursery since 2020. The facilities, staff and care provided have been consistently high. Both my children are in Abbey full-time, the curriculum has added their confidence and development. It is clear to see how much the children enjoy their time at Abbey and I would highly recommend the facility.

*I have given 4/5 stars for Value For Money, however I do not believe this is not reflective of Abbey alone. Childcare is extremely expensive across the board. I have experienced two other great nurseries with my first child due to a relocation in 2020.

Review from Simon M (Father of Child) published on 28 April 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Our child started nursery six months ago as a 9-month-old. The staff at Abbey Nursery are incredible and from the outset eased our nerves of leaving our baby. The breadth of activities that our child does really helps her develop quickly in an environment that fosters love and encouragement. Parents are actively kept informed and as a father, I am so pleased the traditional parenting stereotypes never crops up at Abbey. The nursery is a truly exceptional place that my daughter loves and we have complete faith in with amazing staff, especially our key worker!

Review from John A (Father of Child) published on 17 April 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have two children that attend Abbey. My eldest always enjoys the activities they do, especially the sports coaching. All his key workers throughout his 4 years have been great and very supportive of his needs and development. Although my youngest has only been going for 7 months, he runs in every day and always enjoys himself. His keyworker is always happy to welcome him every morning and gives us a full report of his activities every day.

Overall Experience

I have been using 'Abbey Houston Children's Nursery' since April 2012 and they are such a brilliant nursery; it feels like an extension to our family. I have two children that they look after and they both love their nursery which is the best testament to the great staff and loving environment. There are lots of fun and educational activities and 'Abbey Houston Children's Nursery' always tries to have outdoor activities whenever the weather allows, which I think is really important. The staff are so loving and kind to the children and the manager is helpful, friendly and takes such an interest in all the children and their families. Can't recommend them highly enough.

Review from J M (Mother of Child) published on 29 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Really happy with the individualised care and attention my son (and daughter before) have received from this nursery. My son is big for his age and I was concerned he would be ready for school before he was due to go. I raised these concerns with the nursery and they were extremely understanding and worked with me to make plans to keep him busy and appropriately challenged over the next year. His behaviour had been slipping but now he is more stimulated, it is much improved!

Overall Experience
Excellent nursery.

Child very happy here.
Good educational components.
Varied trips.
Great nursery staff.
Recognition of illness.
Good room transition.
Always available to answer queries.
My only criticism would be the car park - busy at times but that is impossible to deal with.

Thanks.

Review from A L (Mother of Child) published on 6 July 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter started at Abbey six months ago and took a while to settle. Throughout this period, the staff were patient, kind and reassuring. Now I struggle to get my little one to leave at the end of her session. We always receive a detailed written(and verbal) handover so that we know exactly what she has played with, eaten etc. My daughter is very happy at Abbey and flourishing, I am so pleased we sent her there.
