I can truly say this nursery is amazing. The staff are amazing from room leaders to office staff. They have really helped with my twins progression.
Thank you for your 5-star review and kind words, Megan. We are privileged to be entrusted with your twins' progression.
Jude has been with the nursery for 2 months and since coming he has really com on in himself. Jude has settled straightaway and is definitely learnt new skills and such a happy boy. Thank you Ella, Jenna and all the support staff for taking great care of my baby.
Thank you for your kind words, Rosie. We're absolutely delighted to hear how well Jude has settled in and how much he's grown in such a short time. It's wonderful to see his confidence and happiness shining through each day. The whole team are so pleased to hear your feedback. Thank you for trusting us with your little one - it means a lot to us.
My daughter enjoys nursery and has great rapport with the key workers in her room. From what she tells us, she enjoys the many activities and loves playing with the other children. I feel that she is well looked after and thrives at nursery.
Thank you for leaving us a review. We are delighted that your daughter enjoys nursery and playing with other children, and that she has built a rapport with her key workers. We work hard as a team to build a nursery environment where children are well looked after and can thrive.
The nursery has been very accomodating. Both our little ones really enjoy coming here, they have been especially great with the youngest (1 1/2 when joined) in helping him settle in, and make sure we were comfortable too along the way. Only criticism I have is that there are things that are overlooked or not perhaps communicated properly. I've asked for the app to be looked into since September as I only get access to one child and its promised to be fixed and still isn't.
We are delighted to read how much both of your children enjoy their time at our nursery and that your youngest was so well supported in settling in. We're sorry to hear about the ongoing issue with the app, and we understand how important it is for staying connected to your child's day. Please bear with us while this is being resolved.
Staff are brilliant, my son loves it here.
Thank you for your 5 star review, Molly. We are delighted your son loves our nursery.
The nursery have been very supportive with Lola to get her to be ready for school. They are very welcoming and all the staff are very friendly. Both my girls have loved coming and our 3rd will be joining in September. The staff have been helpful when ever I have come to them about anything and any conserns I have had regarding my children.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It's been a pleasure supporting Lola on her journey towards being school-ready, and we're so pleased to hear how much both of your girls have enjoyed their time with us. Creating a welcoming and supportive environment for our families is very important to us,...
Extremely caring staff, communication and learning experiences are exemplary. My children have developed so much since changing to Townsend Montessori Nursery. Best decision we have ever made for our children to be in this nursery. Thank you for everything you do/have been doing for the growth of our children.
It's incredibly rewarding to know that you've seen such positive development in your children since joining us. Our team works hard to provide a nurturing...
The new management team at Townsend have been fabulous and retention amongst staff has been a lot better. Our daughter loves coming to nursery, and mainly plays nurseries at home, replicating the staff. Staff have been honest with us re her behaviours and methods to manage this from home so it can be improved at nursery.
It's wonderful to hear how much your daughter...
A lot better than previous nursery. My son has settled in very easily and happy to see his progression going well.
Thank you for your review, Rashaun. We are delighted that your son has settled in easily and is progressing well.
Townsend Montessori Nursery is a fantastic place for young children. The staff are kind, attentive, and genuinely care about every child's development. The calm Montessori environment encourages independence, curiosity, and confidence. My child feels happy, supported, and excited to learn every day. Highly recommended for parents
We are delighted to read that your child is happy at our nursery and that our environment is supporting their independence, curiosity and confidence. The team will be pleased to know that their care and the positive learning experiences provided each day are such valued parts of your experience. Thank you for taking the time to recommend our nursery.
If i had to find any negative for me personally, it would be the recording of how much my daughter eats at meal times. On the application, it will often say (ate all), but i am told differently when i pick my daughter up, so i can be unsure of her food intake. Otherwise, my wife and i are very happy to have our daughter coming here.
We are delighted to read how much your daughter enjoys attending our nursery and the progress she is making with her learning and social development. The team will be pleased to know that the activities and secure environment give you reassurance, and we appreciate your feedback regarding meal recording as we continue to review and improve our communication with families.
Concerning level of supervision and hygiene. A nursery should provide a safe and clean environment for young children, but the standards here need serious improvement. I am extremely disappointed.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We take feedback such as this very seriously and would encourage you to contact our nursery directly so we can discuss this with you and address any issues you may have.
Cannot praise the staff at Townsend Montessori nursery in Maidstone enough. They are always cheerful and happy to help. Our boy loves nursery so much which is undoubtedly due to the staff and his experiences with them.
We are delighted to read that your son is enjoying nursery and that our team's care and support have made a positive impact. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our nursery.
The best nursery I ever found for my daughter . She is been doing so well now so confident and articulate . The girls in the team are fantastic kind and empathetic. for new mums who are worrying and looking for the best nursery for their kids I would say Townsend nursery Maidstone would be the best choice . Cheers
Thank you so much for your wonderful recommendation. Its great to read how you have seen your daughter develop since she has joined us.
Most of the teachers have spoke with are patient, understanding and friendly and also supportive
the manager and another member of staff are good in their roles and can give you listen ears and help sort things out when needed.
Two members of staff are patient with the kids and I believe the other teachers too may you all be blessed and I appreciate looking after my daughter and making them learn as the kids are our feature leaders.
I hope and pray my daughter will have a good time in the nursery
Thank you for leaving a review of our nursery. We look forward to supporting your child in having a lifelong love of learning.
I am very satisfied, best nursery in town, Staff are very polite humble and professional, taken excellent care of of the child's, I am very glad that I brought my child to this nursery, I used to take him to a different nursery he was never happy and staff were very reluctant in some areas.
It is lovely to read how happy you and your son have been since moving to our nursery. Thank you for leaving us a review.
And I will like to thank all staff and management for their time and effort
The team will be delighted to read how their hard work and dedication make a difference for you and your children. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
This could be a great nursery if it was run well and had leaders who had a clear vision and strive to improve the nursery and give the children the best start in life. Since being bought out by The Old Station Nursery, this nursery has completely changed, cutting and losing staff that were amazing with the children. Very poor communication with parents, their app is rarely used so have no insight into what your child has done. Staff often complain themselves they are short-staffed and so there is no consistency in which adults are in rooms and staff morale is low. My child has had 3 key workers in a year and they have no idea about him all you get told is they’ve had a good day. Health and safety practices are concerning at times and put children at risk with staffing or fire safety practices. My child regularly is unhappy about going to nursery when at the beginning of his journey it was such a happy place. The recent Ofsted inspection is not a reflection of the nursery.
Really nice nursery. my daughter gets very excited to go and has made many friends. The staff are so patient and kind; they give lots of attention to the children and comfort them when needed, which is a relief to know as a parent.
Townsend is a very good nursery. They are very carrying to the kids which is the most important thing when you leave your kid to be look after specially in their age. My daughter really enjoys going there and playing with her friends and the staff. Overall they care about the kids and how they are developing.
That is very pleasing to hear, thank you for taking the time to review us.
