St George's Nursery Edinburgh

My daughter has been in the nursery for last 3 years and we have been very happy with her growth and development and overall progress. She has received the best care and attention and looks forward to her school years.

I am always impressed by the warmth of the staff and the fun range of activities they are able to do with the girls. My daughter can't wait to go to school every day which I think is the ultimate compliment for St George's.

My daughter settled in straight away and has loved every minute of being at nursery, she loves the outside space, especially having adventures in the woods. My daughter is picked up every day with a huge smile on her face!

The nursery staff and activities they do with the children are fantastic. My daughter's confidence has really grown since she started at this nursery and she has made some lovely friends.

I would recommend this nursery to all my friends and family.

My daughter has enjoyed a wonderful two and a half years at St Georges nursery. I cannot fault the incredible staff and the amazing nurturing environment they have created. The staff are always so welcoming, enthusiastic and accommodating-nothing is too much trouble. Every day my daughter runs in, desperate too see her friends and teachers, so excited about the day ahead. She has so much fun but at the same time learns so much every day. The children are taken outside virtually every day -sometimes into the on site "Fantastic Forest" (which she loves). We have made life long friends and cannot thank the staff enough for giving my daughter the best start possible to her education.

Wonderful responsible stuff! Especially My daughter has received lots help and suggestions from teachers and the Manager. My children (both boy and girl) had a happy nursery year, they never complaint about going to nursery :)

This nursery has wonderful staff who work in excellent facilities. Our son is thriving in this happy, supportive environment. He runs to nursery every morning. We can see his progress through on-line learning journals as well as chatting to the staff daily.

My daughter has been at the nursery for a term now and I am very impressed. In particular, she has clearly been learning a wide range of topics, and her individual interests are also being very much encouraged. The welcoming atmosphere and staff have made her big move to Edinburgh much easier too.

My wife and I have been very pleased and impressed by the standard of education and care provided by the nursery. Our daughter thoroughly enjoyed her time there and was always very keen to attend classes. Thank you very much for helping give her such a good start in life.

The Early Learning Journals update is great to see what your child does whilst at nursery and you can see their development weekly.

The staff at St George's were excellent in meeting with me to discuss the issue and agree a strategy to help my daughter if she was struggling to hear in class. As it turns out, she hasn't had any issues and her speaking (and singing!) has come on in leaps and bounds. The staff were incredibly reassuring and always available for a quick chat if I wanted to check up on how she was getting on, and they regularly added photos and short stories to the nursery website so that I could see she'd been up to. I am really grateful to all the staff.

The staff are keen and attentive and enhance my child's experience. There is a programme of learning which is also fun for the child, and the staff reviews are really insightful but also fun! My daughter looks forward to attending nursery every day.

St George's nursery is fantastic. Our daughter is very happy and blossoming in a supportive, nurturing environment. The staff are highly professional, mature and care deeply for the children.

Facilities are second to none and the oppertunities the children get are remarkable.

Incredibly well organised and operated nursery. Nursery nurses are highly professional, capable and of course, caring. They carry a daily log of my children's activities and their personal development has been outstanding. We're only leaving because it is a girls' school and therefore we have to! I have only had highly positive experiences from St George's.

Our daughter started the nursery since last year and we can find her progress every day - mentally as well as physically. First of all, the nursery provides a good environment to girls. The girls can make the most of the forest/field/area around the school. They also often visit the library/music room of the elder girls. Secondary, they offer well-structured, variety of daily activities. The class is diversified therefore the girls can naturally learn different cultures, too. As a third point, they interact well with other girls at Primary school etc. I can see the elder girls take a good care of nursery girls and they connect each other very well. I think it is one of the best advantages for a relatively small school like St.George's - it provides a family atmosphere. The school offers flexible breakfast club, after school care, holiday clubs so I really appreciate such a scheme as a working mother. Overall, I am very happy with the school and my daughter surely enjoys her days.

Our child is in the nursery from 7:45 to near 6 including breakfast and after school club. As we work full time, we are grateful for the length of the care and supply for the lunch (hot meals). The nursery runs holiday club from 9 to 5 for school break. Regarding the curriculum, outdoor activities is one of the selling points. My daughter likes to climb trees. If this were a co-ed school, boys probably would dominate such an activity and girls skirt around them. But this is a girls' school (nursery accepts a few boys) and girls have a chance to experiment adventure. Because they have a primary school annex to the nursery, sometimes teachers and pupils of the school visit the nursery and introduce music and languages. The children can use the indoor facilities for PE and music. The nursery encourages parents to read stories to children. Our daughter has been the nursery for 7 months and she has developed well in terms of mental health, physical activities and dexterity.
