Norfolk House Nursery - Norfolk Road

Thank you to all the staff, you do a sterling job.

Great, caring staff. They have a great rapport with my daughter. I feel that she is in great hands. The nursery has a great range of activities including Spanish which my daughter loves. My daughter gets lots of stimulation from being at nursery.

My 3-year-old daughter has been going to Norfolk House Nursery since 10 months old. She has transitioned from babies to toddlers to preschool. In each of the classes, the staff are friendly and helpful to the parents. They show great care in keeping the children safe but also to encourage the children to have fun and learn as well. The nursery is very clean despite the numerous activities the children are encouraged to do. There is a garden in the back which is very large which gives plenty of room for the children to run around. My daughter really enjoys the food at the nursery and often only needs a light snack in the evening. I like the fact the nursery does not depend on televisions or electronic games to entertain the children. This has helped her get more into books and imaginative play - her speech has also improved rapidly since moving into preschool class. My daughter has eczema and this is well managed by the staff who apply cream daily.

We recommend this nursery as we estimate the services are at a high level. The supervision of the kids is good and they are all conscientious. The activities proposed to the kids are different each day of the week.

Our daughter currently attends Norfolk House Nursery - Norfolk Road, she has been at the nursery for 3 years and she has loved her experience throughout. All the staff are fantastic and nothing is ever too much! The nursery offers lots of activities and experiences for the children to get involved with including fun days out. The food for lunch and tea is always of a high standard as well as providing a good balanced diet, I would though like to see more breakfast options but other than we cannot complain.

The team in preschool are doing a fantastic job, it’s wonderful to hear our daughter tell us what she has been learning and doing, learning about famous monuments and the solar system, we are also very happy with the emphasis the staff put on ABC’s, phonics and numbers! We were especially impressed with the handcrafted Christmas decorations! Overall a great range of other activities are also offered from football, tennis and pyjama drama.

Keep up the great work!

Most food goes down well with our boy, I’d like to see the odd cake and pudding replaced with fresh fruit if possible.

Great activities and facilities available to the children and daily routines. The extracurricular activities are great and my daughter loves taking part in these. Overall, a great experience to date!

We are very happy with our child's progress at Norfolk House. The staff are friendly and are more than happy to tailor care to individual child's needs. We would definitely recommend.

My experience with Norfolk House Nursery started back in 2010 when my eldest daughter joined - and what a journey it has been! Nine years on my youngest is now in his final year at the nursery and happily settled in Pre-School. I have had a really positive experience with all the staff at the nursery -they have been very accommodating. It's so positive to see the bonds that my children have made with their key workers- my daughters still remember their experiences at nursery and love to share them with their brother! Over the years the nursery has taken on feedback from parents and used this to further strengthen the relationship between the parent & staff. The facilities available to the children are amazing and staff are always exploring different activities to ensure all needs are met. I love the extracurricular activities that are made available to the children - my son loves Spanish. I couldn't believe it when he recounted the numbers 1 - 10 in Spanish, I was one very proud mummy!

It's clear that all the staff really know our little boy, his habits and his character. They provide lots of stimulating activities - loads of arts and crafts, playtime and time outdoors. He loves it there and is very settled. We have every confidence that it's a safe, stimulating and caring environment.

First of all, it is clear to see that all staff enjoy their job just from the level of enthusiasm and liveliness they show on a daily basis. This helps to create a positive environment, where a child can thrive easily! Secondly, I like how the children are treated with respect and their opinions/ideas are valued. The staff are attentive to the children and choose activities around a child's interest to enhance learning further. Thirdly, there is a lot of emphasis on outdoor play and regular trips to the outside world, which is great for broadening the horizon and creating a foundation for creative thinking. Finally, I love how the children seem to pick up literacy skills quite well in pre-school. My child has become more confident and well-rounded after starting here. The only change I would like to see is perhaps more lentil/beans on the vegetarian menu instead of Quorn, a heavily processed protein substitute (I appreciate Quorn is popular across all places).

The Preschool room he is in do a great deal to bring on his learning and education and I have already noticed a change in his understanding. He comes home with wonderful artwork that he has done in the day and he wants to tell me all about it. More importantly, I know he is happy and well cared for, which to me as a busy working mum is more important than anything else. The staff have all seemed to have taken him under their wing and given him the support he needs. Fab nursery! Couldn't have asked for more!

Very attentive staff who my son loves, good well-equipped environment and the team are constantly seeking ways to improve which they effectively act upon. We've used other 'good' care providers but this is by far the best.

I have been a parent of children at Norfolk House Nursery since 2015 and I have always been impressed with the standard of care provided for all ages. The setting is a loving and caring environment, where the staff work incredibly hard to deliver imaginative learning. With my eldest having just started school, the children are well set up to make an excellent start in their academic life, whilst at all times also being well cared for in a happy environment.

A wonderful, caring nursery who have looked after and developed our children for the last 6 years and our third daughter is attending in April 2018. All of the staff are friendly and approachable with key workers identified for each child. The management is readily available for a chat and clearly, love their job. It is a safe environment with a lovely, large garden for activities.

Lots of activities and fun for children. Lovely environment. Friendly staff. Good Learning environment.

My son has been at nursery since he was 9 months old and is now in the preschool room. He has had excellent care the whole way through the nursery and has made fantastic bonds with all staff at the nursery. Everybody that works there is friendly and will always make me feel welcome. His development and knowledge has grown massively over the past 2 years. I couldn't be more proud of the nursery I have chosen for my son, every staff member goes the extra mile and the care is fantastic!

Lovely nursery. Very caring. Lots of fun and messy activities and outside even in winter. I have nothing but positive things to say about it. My son loves it. Wish I could go!

We have been with the nursery since our little one was 9 months old. The staff are excellent and our key workers have been second to none, Our little one has had such great relationships with each one, they really do care. The food is fantastic and the chef is very polite taking on any adaptations or food intolerances your child may have, he’s always open to suggestions.

We have been impressed with all the extra curriculum activities and the effort that goes into planning each day with activities that teach new skills. Resources are different in each room but change related to the age of the child, equipment is also refreshed so that children aren’t playing with the same toys all the time.

The garden facility is one of many reasons as to why we chose the facility. It’s a great outdoor space with lots to entertain the children during all weather types, it especially comes into its own in the good weather when the children spend most of the day outside.

Couldn't be happier. The setting, and more importantly, the staff are fantastic and my daughter settled in so well. Excellent parent involvement with the key worker, lots of outdoor space and a good balance of learning and fun.
