The nursery has grown in the 6-years I have been using it with my two girls. However, you still get the friendly face and family atmosphere from its smaller beginnings, and my daughter comes home and tells me all about the exciting activities they do each day. The food is also excellent, and she often has seconds!
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your positive comments! We always aim to provide a home-from-home environment in our nurseries, so we are delighted to hear that your daughter has settled well and is enjoying the activities that the nursery offers!
Our children have been going here since 2018, and both absolutely love it. The staff are great and foster a really warm, caring environment where the children seem to thrive. Activities are really varied, with lots of outdoor time and also really flexible and accommodating with helping our children have the chance to celebrate festivals like Chinese New Year. We'd definitely recommend it to others.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review!
All the staff are really helpful and give us great feedback on terms of how our daughter is getting on. She seems to love it there, which is a reflection of the great staff they have there. The food she eats is freshly made and healthy, and the amount of activities they do keep her busy.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for such positive comments!
The holiday club is also brilliant; my eldest has attended this before and thoroughly enjoyed it. She also enjoyed being reunited with some of her old friends and the staff that she used to see weekly.
Thank you for such positive comments and for taking the time to write this review!
My son absolutely loves going to nursery, and that is a testament to the hard-working and caring staff. The activities they plan make his day fun, and we love seeing the photos posted on the app. They offer such a variety of food, which has really helped the wearing process and ensured our son will try anything given to him. We cannot thank his key worker and the manager enough!
Being a "lockdown baby", our daughter hadn't socialised much before starting nursery. It has made such a great difference. She is more confident around people and new places. She also learns new things every day at the nursery. She loves going there and is always smiley and chatty when she leaves.
A fantastic nursery where staff clearly care for the children and their development. My 3 children have attended the setting and have very fond memories. Great facilities and a very nurturing environment. All the staff work hard to create an excellent learning experience for the children. Thank you.
My daughter thoroughly enjoys every day she spends at the nursery. The nursery provides so many different activities for the children to do with so many opportunities for the children to learn through play. I love the photos that are sent showing the children at play when you are wondering at home what they are getting up to. Very happy that we chose Fen Drayton for our little one.
Although we live 25 miles away, we chose to place our boy here from September 2019 one full day a week as its location is just a mile away from where I worked. Even though just one month later I switched jobs, my son immediately loved it here so we chose to keep sending him. It's a lovely old building with lots of character and not at all clinical like most chain nurseries. The staff are absolutely amazing; particularly the staff for making sure our son's development is carefully logged and shared with his local pre-school which he also attends. Even attending Fen Drayton just one day a week he has learnt and developed so much and literally runs to the car every Friday morning full of excitement to be going to 'daddy work nursery', and at pick-up, he's smiling and happy and excited to share what he'd done during the day. Every week during lockdown he would ask if 'people are better yet?' hopeful of being able to return. Cannot recommend highly enough.
I think that Fen Drayton is a fantastic nursery. Staff are engaging and friendly and my child has developed a lot of confidence due to continuous praise and encouragement. I particularly like it when staff tell me how entertaining my child has been in class!
I think that Fen Drayton is a brilliant nursery and I think that all the girls are brilliant with the children and are a good team. I am very happy with how my little man is coming along.
This nursery provided us with an individual tailored service taking into account our child's specific needs. Every time I pick up and drop off the staff are directly interacting with all the children. A child's emotions are always reacted to in a respectful and kind manner. They always look happy and comfortable but are not forced to be happy. The garden and rooms are lovely and I am always jealous of the lunches.
Great place, great staff. My child has progressed really well since he started at the nursery. I couldn't be happier.
The food is homemade and the menu is varied and seasonal, much better quality than other settings we have encountered.
We are confident that our little girl is happy and well cared for, and that the nursery offers a safe and stimulating environment for her. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for childcare in the local area.
My son has attended this nursery for almost 3 years and I am extremely pleased with the quality of care he receives. He loves attending and I know he is safe and very well looked after. He is learning so much and being challenged with a variety of engaging activities that help to develop his skills and interests. Staff are caring and know my son, building on his strengths and developing independence. A superb nursery that I would absolutely recommend.
Her development really flourishes under the staff's supervision and guidance.
The company should support them in their activities and to keep updating the indoors and outdoor environment.
They really deserve it. I've seen other nurseries where the quality of education was less important than everything looking like a showroom. Thank you to the staff.
My son is always dressed up and has changed nappies. We are happy with this nursery.
This nursery gives my niece a good learning experience all the time. Every time I see my niece she tells me all about what she has been doing and learning at the nursery. I can't say enough how grateful I am
I cannot compliment this nursery enough. My daughter has been in this nursery since she was 6 months old and now she is nearly 3 and a half years old, not even once have they given me a chance to complain about anything. My daughter loves it. My two older daughters had nannies and if I could go back in time I would choose this nursery over nannies. They have a holistic approach towards children's needs and development. They are very accommodating and understanding.
The staff are all welcoming and every time I collected her, the feedback was always of a very high standard. I like the fact that I have information that I can pass on to her parents when they collect them from me in the afternoon. The involvement and feedback that I receive is so much better than her other local preschool attached to the school. My niece absolutely loves the mud kitchen, and spent most of her time outdoors! I cannot praise the staff enough
