Review from Katie H (Mother of Child) published on 10 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been attending Acorns Nantgarw since March. He started at six months old, and they have been a wonderful support in his development from weaning to walking. We're really happy with how he is developing and their hand in this. We especially enjoy seeing how busy they are with garden play, messy play and role play; they keep up to date with the most recent learning and development styles to ensure that your child has purposeful play.

I especially appreciate how they notice little quirks and traits that my child has, showing how much care and attention they give him, and after all, he's the most precious thing in my world, so it's nice to feel confident that he's in good caring hands when I'm not with him.

Review from Anna M (Mother of Child) published on 10 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This is the fourth year I have been using Acorns Parc Nantgarw (between 2 children), and yet again I can't praise them enough. The staff are all so friendly, happy, helpful and kind. Even with the challenges faced over the last few years the children have always been happy and had a safe and happy place to be cared for. I love how much fuss is made of special events and times of the year, like Christmas! The arts and crafts the kids do are amazing and I love keeping hold of these special memories. The communication is brilliant and we are always kept up to date with all the latest information regarding the nursery. I honestly could not recommend this nursery enough and have even done so on social media platforms when parents ask for reviews of local nurseries and to friends.

Overall Experience

Best nursery around! The staff are really caring and professional and do lots of charity fundraising. Both of my daughters have attended here (my youngest is still there), and they love it. The facilities are clean, and there is plenty of educational equipment to help my daughter's growth. I've never had any cause for concern and know my daughter is in safe and caring hands.

I can't recommend Acorns Parc Nantgarw enough, it's a home away from home for our little girl. The staff are friendly, understanding and thoughtful. The care and compassion they demonstrate is remarkable. We often say it is by far one of the best decisions we have ever made.

Brilliant staff very well organised, great facilities and a good outdoor play area even in bad weather, good choice of menus that get rotated depending on a season, very good with children and teaching them, getting ready to leave for school.

I can't recommend Acorns Parc Nantgarw enough. My son absolutely loves going there, as did my daughter previously. It is warm and friendly and the staff really care. The food is fantastic and the nursery is always immaculate. I honestly don't know how they think of all the brilliant activities.

Review from Rick A (Father of Child) published on 9 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We looked around a few nurseries before sending our child to Acorns and we're delighted to know we've made the right decision. The facilities are great, our child has the best time there and the staff are genuinely fantastic. We were really nervous sending our child in as we moved on from the pandemic and they were brilliantly accommodating. Brilliant with children and parents alike, we couldn't be happier.

Overall Experience

My little boy settled so quickly at Acorns. He absolutely loves going in and is always so happy and content when I collect him. The ladies working there are brilliant and very engaging and caring to all children. The food is healthy and plenty and we always have a detailed review of his day at the end of the day.

Review from Shani H (Father of Child) published on 6 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Would be great if the daily updates in the Nursery app will be available again. More outdoor activities would be useful for the kid's abilities to learn how to explore different environments. Subject to facilities available would be an improvement to children's health and well-being to have less crowded groups.

Both my girls have been at Acorns Parc Nantgarw and all the staff there have been amazing, always so cheerful and caring.

I viewed other nurseries but knew straight away they would have the loveliest time here, all the activities are well thought out and we love getting pictures of them on the app. We couldn't ask for more!

I have two children that attend the nursery and both are extremely happy there. All the staff are very friendly and the activities are really varied. It is expensive but I have honestly struggled to find another nursery that compares.

Overall Experience

Our daughter absolutely loves it at Acorns. She has come.on "leaps and bounds" since joining in Jan 2022. The staff are pleasant and helpful, she gets a great variety of freshly cooked/prepared food, and we always feel like she's in safe hands. She's always coming home with new things that she's learnt or made, and the daily updates mean that we don't feel like we're missing out on what she's doing whilst in the staff's care.

Review from Helen W (Mother of Child) published on 11 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

All three of my children have attended Acorns Parc Nantgarw from 12 months until school age. The staff are all absolutely wonderful, loving, and caring. They really do become an extension of the family and all of my children absolutely adore their time with their friends and carers. The nursery itself is immaculately clean and you very rarely see an unhappy child - which was not my experience on viewing other nurseries prior to the decision to send my first to Acorns. The food is healthy and wholesome and my children all enjoyed it. Communication is excellent. All round I can't fault the nursery.

Acorns Nursery have gone over and above for my son and I in the past few months. I can’t thank them enough for their continued support. My son loves going to Acorns and always talks about his friends and the staff. They are always so creative and I enjoy receiving his drawings and paintings. He has come on so much with his speech and development since attending Acorns.

The staff at Acorns Morgannwg are phenomenal. They have gone above and beyond in supporting us with our son during a difficult last 2 years. Our son goes in happily and comes out smiling. The app is a great way to see what he’s been doing during the day.

Excellent nursery. My son loves it and runs in every morning! He’s moved up classes and never had any problems. They always do fun activities - painting, messy play, outdoor play. Highly recommend to anyone! He loves all the staff so much! I just wish I was able to spy and see him play at pick-up. Sad times due to COVID something I’ve never seen yet - fingers crossed!

Overall Experience

I can’t rate Acorns Nantgarw highly enough. The facilities themselves are fabulous. The rooms are so spacious, light, and airy. Every room has a covered outdoor space so they can play outside even when it rains, which was really important in our decision to send our little boy there. The staff are always so friendly and helpful, always happy to answer any questions we might have. Our little boy absolutely loves it there.

Review from Lisa R (Mother of Child) published on 3 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son was with Acorns until he started school last year and my younger daughter has now been there for 8 months and loves it. I cannot rate this nursery highly enough. The staff are all lovely but highly professional. There are so many different activities for the children to enjoy and both the indoor and outdoor space is lovely. The food is healthy but varied. The staff have also been amazing throughout the COVID pandemic. They have obviously taken every precaution to keep everyone safe, whilst at the same time, have still made our children feel safe and at home. As a mother, you want peace of mind when you leave your child behind and I absolutely have this. Thank you Acorns Nantgarw!

Review from Cheryl T (Mother of Child) published on 21 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

All of my children have attended Acorns Nantgarw from the age of 9 months until they started school, with my third daughter currently still attending. Having been coming to the nursery for over 7 years now, the place feels like an extension of our home and family. I wouldn't trust anywhere else to look after our children. Each child is placed into a small group with consistent members of staff caring for them which allows them to build close relationships and really feel cared for. All of my girls have run through the doors without a backward glance in the mornings - I'm lucky to get a wave goodbye as they're so keen to go and play with their friends! The facilities are always clean and tidy, and the food smells delicious. My girls often came home with muddy knees, paint splatters, and glitter in their hair, which to me is the best sign that they've spent the day getting messy and having tons of fun - just as children should.

My daughter absolutely loves this nursery and talks about the staff and her friends there constantly. She cannot wait to go there each week. She will be very sad to leave when she starts school. I was very impressed by the Covid-19 measures put in place to safeguard the children.
