Excellent Nursery. The staff are amazing. My granddaughter absolutely loves the nursery. They spend a lot of time outside getting plenty of fresh air and they learn so much. They get healthy meals and snacks and a lot of fruit.

I have to take my hat off to all the staff here. All of them make such an effort with my little boy, even the fantastic chef!
There’s always such a warm welcome when I drop him off and all the staff have a confidence and genuine charm for my boy that it instantly put me at ease.
There is a structure
to different activities every day, exploration of certain subjects and letting the little ones find their way naturally. This is just great! My little boy is only 9 months but he has already gained a lot of confidence and the staff have also given me the confidence to push forward in certain areas with him too. Knowing what he has enjoyed in the day encourages myself to allow him to go more in that area. Even down to what he has eaten in the day. He is a pescatarian and they make delicious food fresh every day for him to enjoy. Overall, a fabulous nursery!

My boy has had the most magical start in life thanks to Naturally Learning Charlestown. He loves it there and so do we. We are incredibly well informed with what he gets up to throughout the day.

My youngest son loves the forest preschool, he has learned so many wonderful things since starting his funded hours. Everything about the nursery is fantastic. The staff are always so enthusiastic and happy and it shows in the fun activities I see the children doing every day. There are even magical
events and open days so I get to join in too. I only wish I had found it sooner for my older son!

My daughter comes here regularly in the school holidays and always has a great time, especially learning outdoors is what she enjoys the most. The staff are very patient with her and she never wants to leave! Would definitely recommend.

My grandchildren simply adore their nursery. I love seeing what they get up to through the Famly app. The forest is just beautiful and reminds me of what childhood is all about.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is impeccable. One of the most amazing nurseries a child could attend, the nursery itself (Charlestown) is amazing, full of the most amazing natural toys, resources and objects to play with. The nursery has its own forest facility for the children to enjoy forest school on a daily basis
and also access to the local park and beach. This nursery goes above and beyond to meet every child’s individual needs and works with the parents to work out the areas that can be improved and worked on to push your child to achieve more. The nursery is full of the most wonderful, caring and understanding staff members who honestly go above their duty of care to help a child settle in and achieve their goals whether that be socially, physically or mentally. The nursery, the staff and the facilities this nursery offer are a parent's dream for their child. My son has attended this nursery for 2.5 years and I will be very sad to see him leave in July of this year to start school.

My Granddaughter loves it here. The staff are so friendly and caring, they have helped my family out so much and I am very grateful. It truly is marvellous to see so many young children outside playing in the forest and going to the beach every week, even the littlest ones!

Naturally Learning Charlestown is the most wonderful place for my children! My daughter has been here since she was 2 and is off to school this year. She has had the most incredible experience and has learnt some amazing things. The outdoor Pre School which is set in their own private forest is simply
magical. The teachers and educators in charge of the children are inspiring. I never expected that my 3 year old would come home and teach me about foraging wild food, sound waves in puddles of water and how to light a fire safely using nothing but 'dragon snot and fairy blankets'.


My son has also just started in the baby room and loves it. The team in there are so kind and nurturing, they really care for her as if he was their own. One of my favourite things is the software they use to share what the children get up to every day. We get sent photos and videos of our smiley, happy (and often muddy) children every time they are in, we are so happy to have found this amazing nursery.

A very lovely and welcoming nursery environment. It has made my daughter's start here and put us all at ease. The outdoor aspects of the nursery are a great asset to them as well as all the friendly staff, who have filled us with much confidence about her care here.

The nursery is lovely and the staff really care for the children. My child has progressed very well with the nursery and has brilliant relationships with some staff and other children. My only concern is the price (recently increased again) since the increase we have chosen to reduce our child’s days
with the nursery as it isn’t cost effective for us as a working family, this is a real shame as it is the only negative we now have about the nursery.

My children and I have had the most wonderful nursery experience at Naturally Learning. We have been there since they were babies and fell in love from the get-go. The baby/toddler room downstairs is so cute and welcoming and I just love what they've done with the explorer/Pre School room. As a teacher
myself I understand the importance of learning at such an early age and Naturally Learning has got it 100% right! I struggle to find a bad thing to say about the manager and his amazing team, we couldn't have wished for more.

Both my children have attended Naturally Learning Charlestown. They have thrived and having so much outdoor time really fulfils what we, as parents believe to be best for sound child development. It's a shame that they have to go to School so young! We'd much prefer them to remain at the nurseries to
KS2 at least!
