Fennies Horley, Albert Road

The team have been great and really looked after him. His self-development has been excellent and he has formed some really great relationships with his key helpers and a number of the staff there. We would highly recommend Fennies.

As parents, we feared for the safety of our daughter that decided to take her out of this nursery. Official complaint submitted with both the nursery and Ofsted. Standards have reduced from outstanding to good but we think a lot of improvements are needed. It’s expensive and it does not deliver the basics of child care and safety. Strongly advise to avoid this nursery if you can.

Experienced and long-standing staff have left and other staff are leaving in their droves.

My son joined Fennies Horley at the start of the year going four days a week. After working from home and being in lockdown for a lot of his life, it was hard to not have him around. However, the manager is so friendly and welcoming and his key person is energetic, helpful and genuinely cares about his wellbeing. I feel very comfortable taking him to Fennies Horley and his development has already come a long way (e.g. using a spoon to eat with).

Our daughter is now going there 5 days a week, and she just loves it! All the staff enjoy being with her and bringing her development on, helping her to bond with the other children there and generally taking a really keen interest in her. She comes back happy and full of chatting, which is always a great sign! Thanks to all the staff for everything they have done, especially in these difficult times, you’re all lifesavers!

The whole team at Fennies Horley is great! My son has really thrived since joining and always talks about the fun things he does. He loves going to nursery and always comes out smiling on pick up. You can quite clearly see that the team genuinely care about the children. Special thanks to all the staff.

She has made some lovely friendships since being a Fennies and talks about her friends and teachers with great affection, we know that Fennies has given her the best start possible to help her settle into her new reception class, confident and caring is our daughter. Thank you Fennies Horley we are going to miss every single one of you. Take care of yourselves, hope to pop by soon for a natter.

Deciding what nursery my child went to was a very hard decision and we definitely made the best one choosing Fennies!

The management team of the nursery are great. The two ladies are friendly, professional and extremely helpful, always willing to go above and beyond. The staff in my son's room are all wonderful, they are always smiley and give good details about my son’s day. My son settled very quickly, which I feel is a testament to the environment of the nursery and the lovely staff. My son’s key person writes detailed progress reviews which are informative and lovely to read. My son has made a great connection with his key person which helps with his confidence in general but especially with his speech and toilet training. We love the activities completed, the range of foods they eat and the good manners reinforced at mealtimes, along with good social skills, yoga and signing. All in all, we are very happy with the nursery and have no doubts or worries about anything. My son looks forward to his nursery days and gets excited about what he might learn that day. so lovely to see!

This nursery is an amazing place! Great staff and very welcoming. My little boy has been going here for 4 months now and I couldn’t ask for a better daycare. Staff are so loving and understanding. All the teachers are awesome.

As parents, we feel at peace dropping off our son every day, as we know he is in good hands.

Moving to a new area in the middle of the pandemic and knowing our little girl would have to return to a new nursery after the lockdown was quite worrying for us. However to begin with, her transfer from another nursery to Fennies Horley was a very seamless one and that made us very pleased. Settling her into the Horley branch was literally easy peasy! The management and key persons are amazing. The ladies here have always been so cheerful, kind and thoughtful and that makes it very reassuring for us to know our daughter is in good hands! She is always excited and happy to go to nursery, even one year later! The learning resources and activities are also really great and I always look forward to seeing what has been done every day. We have no complaints so far, thank you all for being so genuinely nice and thoughtful towards our daughter and us. Having had the experience of 2 different nurseries, we can honestly say the Horley Fennies is unmatched! Keep it up!

Fennies Horley have been great with our daughter. She loves to come to nursery and really enjoys it. All the staff have been amazing and caring. We are very happy we picked Fennies over the other nurseries we visited.

My son has settled into the Toddlers room with ease and the staff are all great. He comes home babbling about everyone and the activities they do, he really enjoys nursery. The setting is really nice too.

I didn't have any family support to look after my child on Monday. I sent an email to Fennies on Sunday evening and on Monday morning at 7 am I received a confirmation that I could drop Linda at the nursery. Very brilliant, amazing family support!

They also were very supportive during difficult times the past year which I really appreciate, they always send activities for the girls.

We have seen her develop in so many different ways since attending and are confident she is getting the best start!

Our son has started going to nursery last month, from the age of 12 months. The first weeks were quite overwhelming, as a year of Covid and very little exposure to others hadn't really prepared him for the big world. The team at Fennies Horley have been absolutely amazing. So sweet, caring, patient and excited. He now loves going every day and we've seen a huge improvement in his ability to play, stay focused and he's even become more cuddly than ever before. We are so happy that our little boy has such a safe and loving place to go to and we are grateful to the Fennies team for all their dedication. We would highly recommend this nursery!

Our little boy started at Fennies Horley in January 2021 after a house move for us. We were made to feel so welcome from the start with a virtual tour initially and then being welcomed into the nursery so our key worker could get to know us all before our little boy settled properly. They’ve been amazing with remaining compliant with Covid-19 restrictions and our little boy has seemed so happy since day one. At times when he got sad during drop off, we’d have reassuring phone calls within ten minutes or so to put our mind at ease. We’ve noticed developments in his abilities in certain activities and his speech and communication skills. His key worker shows a keen interest in him as an individual and we’re so happy. Thank you Fennies Horley.

Great management and staff team. Highly recommend. My son is learning new things every day, this is down to the hard work from all staff. The chef also deserves praise for all her hard work and new ideas.
