Nursery at St Gabriel's

We really especially enjoy the updates of what he’s been up to throughout the day.

Keep up the good work, Sandleford!

Overall, Sandleford is a great nursery. The hours are excellent, the staff are engaging, and the children seem really keen to go. The facilities available are superb, as it's within a school. Covid changed the experience between the parent and the staff, but this should change back to ‘normal’ soon.

I cannot rate the nursery highly enough. The staff are fantastic - they all know my little girl’s name, whether they’re in her room or not, and she absolutely loves everyone there. Being a lockdown baby, she took a little while to settle in, but now she acts like she owns the place and she loves going there. They genuinely care about the children and do their utmost to ensure everyone is safe, happy and informed.

It’s a lovely nursery with beautiful surroundings.

Love it! Would highly recommend!

Thank you to everyone; it was the best decision we made sending our boys to Sandleford. We will genuinely miss everyone when our youngest leaves later this year.

Our daughter has been at Sandleford for around 6-weeks now and absolutely loves it there! The staff have been really helpful in getting her settled. Our little girl always gets so excited going to nursery and jumps from my arms every morning. When she started, she was really fussy with food, but the staff have been great in getting her to try and eat new things, and now she will try and eat most things! We love the app as it helps us be kept informed with everything throughout the day from meals and sleep to activities and nappies, which gives us peace of mind! I love knowing that my daughter is enjoying her time there but also being looked after!

Highly, highly recommend.

My daughter had a lovely experience when she was in Sandleford. My son is currently in pre-school and is also very happy every day. We are grateful to have the lovely staff looking after our little ones. I can't appraise enough of the caring, love both my kids have received. In my mind, this is the best nursery in the area. (We had experience in another facility, which was not satisfying and moved to Sandleford). I would highly recommend this nursery from our experience.

Sandleford keep you up to date throughout the day - from what she has eaten through to key moments captured in pictures as well as nappy updates!

The team at Sandleford have been great over the last 6-months since our daughter started. Our daughter loves attending nursery here, and we’ve seen a great improvement in her abilities and her confidence.

Amazing teachers and a great environment for your kids to grow and become strong individuals. My kid is always excited to go to his nursery; shows the kind of love and care he's given. The open grounds are amazing for kids to go outdoors and explore while being safe inside the campus.

Very happy with the nursery.

Am sure there will be a few bumps in the road, but as we enter the 2nd month, we have avoided tearful goodbyes during drop-off, which we take as a great sign and can see our little girl gaining confidence and new skills on a weekly basis thanks to the teaching staff in the nursery.

Some of the items options I have marked as good are purely due to be not being able to answer due to Covid preventing entrance into the nursery.

Very good. The cares really care for my child. My daughter always saying she is so lucky to go to nursery there. We love the outside play area as well. The food is very good as well. Super nursery in all areas.

My son started the nursery in April 2021, making the change from his past setting to Sandleford was a difficult choice to make. I didn’t need to worry. The team are amazing and really care for the children. I have already seen a difference in his learning, and it amazes me how they can make every day different and help him to learn through play. I have a very happy son, and I want to thank everyone at Sandleford Nursery for truly being outstanding.

My daughter started going to Sandleford nursery when she was 18-months-old. She has been through the baby room, toddler room and preschool. I must say my daughter is so happy and loves to go to Sandleford nursery. We are very happy with the kind of service they provide. As a mom, leaving my daughter first time in the hands of someone else care, initially I was so worried... but to be honest, Sandleford has taken that fear out of me. They look after little ones so well that I can work peacefully. During the pandemic time, how they managed children and other things is very much appreciable. The settings have a lot of open space and woods for children to explore - which is not common elsewhere. The early education they provide is also so creative and excellent. They work together with parents for the child’s overall development. Though it’s 30 minutes drive for me, I am very much happy to send her to Sandleford nursery.

My son has been going to Sandleford, St Gabriels for five months and is so happy. All the staff made him very welcome and settled very quickly. They are always doing fun, learning activities and his vocabulary has really developed. They treat every child as an individual which is very important. The outside space is a real advantage. I love having the app which keeps me informed on his day.

My daughter has only recently started nursery and the staff at Sandleford have been fantastic. Despite the current climate they have done everything to ensure she is transitioned and supported through this. They have provided regular updates, holistically thinking of the child and her needs, demonstrating their caring attributes and knowledge. The staff appear approachable and happy to assist with any questions. My daughter appears very happy, thank you.
