Review from Lianna L (Mother of Child) published on 16 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both our children settled in beautifully at this nursery. We will be incredibly sad to be leaving them. Thank you ever so much for all your help. The children spent most of their summer outdoors, which both my husband and I loved (as did our children).

Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Ashington Day Nursery & Pre-school
Many thanks for this review. So pleased to hear your both your children have settled in.

The team will be delighted to read your comments - we are really grateful for your support.

Overall Experience
I’ve been so impressed with the amazing work the Ashington Children's Nursery team have done with my son who has now started primary school with so much confidence.
My daughter is still with Ashington and is also having a blast!

The kids have learnt so much and grown so much since starting, and I’m so looking forward to seeing the amazing progress my daughter will still have.

Wonderful. Cannot recommend them enough!

The setting is lovely, and my little girl is so happy here. The people at the nursery are so kind, warm and friendly, and they were so patient with my little girl when she took a long time to settle in. Now she can’t wait to go!

Overall Experience
We have used Ashington Children's Nursery since my son was young - he’s now 6 and my little girl now attends.
Our little girl can’t wait to go and seems to learn something new on every visit.
The nursery is exceptional; the staff only have the children’s best interests at heart.
I was very impressed with the COVID procedures in place; it really reassures as a parent.

100% recommended.

Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Ashington Day Nursery & Pre-school
Thank you for this glowing review - my team of colleagues will be so pleased to learn of your comments. So glad to hear both your son and daughter enjoy their time at the nursery; it is exactly what we strive for.

COVID has changed the way we work now, and the team have adopted our stay safe policies so well - thank you for giving us this valuable feedback.

Review from Caitlin M (Mother of Child) published on 6 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We just started Ashington Nursery and we love it! The carers have really worked with my anxiety on leaving my 10-month-old as I go into work. My boy loves the people who work there and they’ve even been able to get him to nap! I feel very comfortable leaving my boy there knowing that he will be taken care of and fed. Also, if I had any requests they would be willing to work with those as well. Would 100% recommend Ashington Nursery!

Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Ashington Day Nursery & Pre-school

Your review is so kind, thank you. I'm so happy to hear that both you and your son love our wonderful nursery. Separation anxiety is something many parents struggle with and we make it a priority to help people along this early part of the nursery experience - I am so glad to know the amazing team...

Review from Hannah N (Mother of Child) published on 3 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter went to Ashington Nursery from the age of 2 - 4 years old. She was always so excited to see all her friends and all of the staff. She said she always feels happy when she thinks of “little school”. My son has been going since June 2020 and he is 2 years old, he absolutely adores this place including the staff. He is besotted with the nursery and can’t wait to go back each time he leaves. The best place for my children is Ashington Children’s Nursery.

Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Ashington Day Nursery & Pre-school

Hi Hannah, your comments are really wonderful, thanks for taking the time to write this review. So pleased to hear how much your son is thriving and your daughter still talks about her "little school". Our amazing team of practitioners really do love caring for children and I am delighted to know that your son is enjoying nursery life.

Review from Rachael C (Mother of Child) published on 23 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My eldest attended the nursery from around age 2.5 years until she left for school at the end of August 2020. She absolutely loved going to nursery and always had lots to tell me about her day at pickup. My son has attended the nursery from eight-months-old (with a short gap during lockdown), he is now two and always has a good time at nursery. The nursery have lots of fun and creative activities for all the children to get involved in.

Overall Experience

This nursery is fantastic both my daughters have loved it there. My oldest daughter struggled to settle at two local nurseries but settled straight away at Ashington the staff are fantastic and consistent, and my youngest we can’t wait to go to nursery. She’s in through the door like a flash and doesn’t look back. They give a brilliant review of their day and what and how much they have eaten at every pickup.

Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Ashington Day Nursery & Pre-school
Thank you for such a glorious review - the team will be delighted to know about your very positive and kind comments. I am pleased to hear that both your daughters are enjoying their time at the nursery so much.

Review from Sarah D (Mother of Child) published on 20 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter is currently 22 months old and she has been going to Ashington Nursery from 10 months. Initially, I was really anxious about going back to work and leaving her in someone else's care but I needn't have worried. The nursery staff were so friendly and welcoming and put my mind at ease. They did some great settling in sessions and as a result, she settled really quickly. She continues to enjoy going in and has bonded well with the staff. The nursery has been so flexible and accommodating with increasing sessions and have taken a really sensible perspective and appropriate measures during covid. I feel very comfortable with her in their care and feel they know her well. My husband is Dutch and he found out they were going to put a book together of some Dutch words so they could help her a little with this. Would highly recommend the nursery.

Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Ashington Day Nursery & Pre-school
Thank you for choosing our lovely nursery; we are so pleased you decided to entrust us with your daughter. Settling children into a new nursery environment is always a challenge, and I am delighted to hear that we helped you through this tricky time.

Review from Katie M (Mother of Child) published on 13 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending Ashington nursery for over 2 years and absolutely loves it. He has made several good friends with both other children and the lovely staff. He really missed the nursery during the lockdown and was very happy to return. The variety of activities is excellent, including lots of outdoor play, painting, crafts, reading, etc and undoubtedly this has contributed towards my son’s development. The staff are always warm, welcoming and professional, and they work hard to keep the children happy and stimulated. We are so grateful for all their support.

Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Ashington Day Nursery & Pre-school
Dear Katie,
I can't wait to share your wonderful comments with our amazing practitioners - they simply adore care for children and feedback like yours is a real boost for us all.

So happy your son loves the nursery - thanks for sharing your experience.

Review from Chloe T (Mother of Child) published on 12 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to Ashington Children's Nursery since she was 9 months old and now shes 2 and a half years old. She absolutely loves nursery, and I always have a happy child come home who’s excited to tell me about everything she did at nursery that day. All the staff are lovely and so supportive of her needs and helping her grow into a confident little girl that she is. I would highly recommend this nursery and when my newborn boy is older he will be attending there too.

Ashington nursery is amazing.
Our two love it there.
Our little girl has just started school and was so sad to leave the nursery; she loved the staff and children.

Can’t fault the nursery.

Great village nursery, which my three-year-old attends.
Staff are lovely, and my little one is so much happier here than they had been at another local nursery.

Special mention for the chef who really cares about what the children are eating.

Review from Lauren G (Mother of Child) published on 12 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Despite my son starting at Ashington Nursery only a month ago, he has settled in brilliantly and far better than I’d ever have imagined! The staff are brilliant and made us both feel very welcome (even with the COVID restrictions in place!). Like many first time mums, I was an emotional wreck at drop off on his first day, but the team were really supportive and reassured me that he would be absolutely fine, and he was! I feel happy leaving him, safe in the knowledge that he’s happy, well cared for, encouraged but more importantly, that he’s given a cuddle when he needs it most! Thank you to all of the team, who really go above and beyond to make sure the little people enjoy themselves on a daily basis!

My wife and I cannot sing the teams praises enough as they have made our daughter extremely welcome, and she really enjoys her time with them. They have helped her settle in, and there have been great strides in things like her social and object interactive development.

Overall, the most important thing for us is that we trust the team implicitly with the most precious thing in our lives, and we cannot thank them enough.
