Wish I'd never sent my child to this nursery. I have had nothing but issues since my child went here and constant false promises. You can also never get hold of the manager when anything goes wrong. The only establishment that charge you for a service they cannot provide constant calls to pick your child up because they cannot cope.
We take all feedback very seriously. We do however maintain our zero-tolerance policy with regards to abuse of staff.
Our child has been at this nursery for about 18 months. Over that time they have transitioned from the bright stars (baby room) to the little learners (middle room for 2-3's). Staff rotate and this means children know and are familiar with everyone in the nursery, and most staff are familiar with most of the children too. Staff have been very supportive, listening to our views and adapting things as needed. We use cloth nappies and this has never been an issue for staff. Any time our child has been unwell this has been calmly dealt with. During the pandemic, things were obviously different and it has been great as time has gone on and restrictions have been lifted and activities which were on hold are now available again.
Both of my daughters are at this nursery and would recommend this amazing and friendly nursery. Their staff are amazing and take care of my girls and I wouldn’t change it for the world, my oldest child is going to primary school this year and I really don’t want her to leave.
My daughter started to attend at two years old after spending her time prior with her gran when I was working. I was really anxious about leaving my daughter and the staff helped put my mind at ease with there friendly attitudes, they also sent me photos of my daughter having fun and participating in activities. My daughter will now be leaving this year to attend school and I am forever grateful for the care and support she has been shown. She was really shy and now she has become more confident and built strong relationships with friends and staff. They always provide a healthy meal and snacks to all the children, they also offer the children a wide range of activities such as spanish which is my daughters favourite. I can't thank all the staff at preschool academy enough for all they have done for my daughter. My daughter will truly miss every one of them.
My son absolutely loves going to nursery at Preschool Academy. The staff are so friendly and approachable, and so amazing with all the kids. I love the updates from the staff during the day, and they even send little pictures of him having fun which is amazing! So handy that dinner is provided for working parents. At my daughter’s nursery they didn’t do this and she would be too tired for it by the time we were home. Could not be happier with this place.
My wee one has just started and you can feel the warmth from the staff as you open the door. I trust them with my son and l don’t trust many people with him and l would gladly leave my son in their care. The knowledge that he is part of their family and l also like the fact that it is a family team mother and daughter and even the uncles helping out with making items from scratch for the garden area.
I have had three children from the family in this nursery from aged 1-4 and have found it to be amazing. When working full time I found their prices very reasonable and competitive and always support the different needs. The staff have a wide and varying repertoire of skills necessary for the development of the children. The management and staff have, on several occasions, gone beyond what is expected to assist us as a family.
My little girl goes to this nursery. We have just moved to the area, and I was a bit worried about how she would settle in, but all the girls are amazing, and my little girl never wants to miss a day. My little girl is deaf in one ear and gets all the support she needs from her nursery teachers.
Best nursery. My daughter has attended since December 2021 and it’s the best place ever. We previously had our son at a different nursery and this one is far superior. Best about!
I enrolled my son into Preschool Academy when he was 9 months old and I can not recommend them enough, they are a fantastic nursery. My son is now 18 months and watching his development and motor skills grow is just amazing to see. The nursery is extremely clean and the meals they provide are great quality and good choice. I know my son is in good hands because the staff are amazing and my son absolutely loves them and loves interacting with other kids. Seeing his confidence and personality grow is incredible. I am pregnant with my 2nd baby. I have already secured 2 spaces for my son and new baby to go back for next term once I finish maternity. Overall, it's a fantastic nursery and I highly recommend them.
Fantastic nursery, our son has been in all 3 of the nursery rooms and cannot fault the staff in any. They are so dedicated to the wellbeing and development of all the children attending! Going to miss the nursery when our son starts school in the summer!
Cannot fault the nursery at all, doing amazing with my child and the development within my child has been great. Great value for money staff are all amazing friendly kind and caring and look after all the children incredibly well.
I honestly can’t thank this nursery enough for the care they give my son. He’s in a full-time place and the staff are all amazing with him. He absolutely loves going to nursery, I have total peace of mind when he’s there and I trust them 100% with my boy. Everything about the nursery is great from the staff to the facilities. My son has come on leaps and bounds since he started and I look forward to watching him grow whilst he’s at Preschool Academy.
This nursery is fantastic I have never had any problems or issues my both kids have attended this nursery. My daughter is now at school but my son still attends the nursery. I have seen him come on leaps and bounds. His speech and learning has come on a treat. He loves the nursery so much, especially the staff, they are all lovely and caring and also great with the children. Management are fantastic as well. Am so glad I picked this nursery for both my children.
Fantastic nursery! I recommend this nursery to everyone that's looking for one. Best hours, prices and service in the area by far. All the staff are so nice and make you feel very comfortable leaving your little one with them.
Staff have been truly amazing and understanding of the needs of my son who suffers from sensory issues. The staff have been great with regular communication about his day, any issues, developmental concerns and how to further develop the needs of my child. Since starting Preschool Academy, myself and my child have felt comfortable and happy and truly welcomed and listened to.
I am extremely happy to have sent my daughter who is now 4 and son who is 2 here. Since starting nursery my daughter has come on amazingly and is now more than ready to start school this year. After starting my daughter in Preschool Academy when she was three, I had no hesitation in sending my son here when he was 1 and I returned to work. He is thriving and enjoys going in and participating in a wide variety of activities. Great nursery and recently added a lot of outdoor play equipment in which my children love.
Our daughter has attended nursery full time since October 2021. The nursery staff are amazing, very caring, nurturing and attentive to our daughter's needs. I’m well updated every night on what activities have happened during the day and if my wee one is upset at drop off for example the nursery will send me an update on how she is doing and sometimes with a photo which helps to put my mind at ease whilst I am at work. I think the nursery does very well to vary the activities daily and keep the kids entertained and I like that they utilise the outdoor spaces too. Our daughter is really happy at nursery which is all you want.
My daughter has attended the nursery since 8 months old and is now coming up for 2. I cannot recommend it enough, the staff are always welcoming, friendly and approachable and happy to answer any questions and help where possible. My little girl absolutely loves her days at nursery and runs in the door each morning. The effort and attention she receives from staff clearly shows as she has progressed so much in her time at Preschool Academy. They always provide detailed feedback at the end of each day as well as sending pictures of what she's been doing which really helps knowing she is happy whilst we're at work.
Great nursery, my daughter loves it, staff are so approachable and friendly. Keep you updated with kid’s progress, always seem to be doing great activities. I would recommend to anyone looking for a nursery.
