Abbot's Hill Day Nursery & Pre-School

We would recommend this nursery to everyone!

The nursery provides outstanding care for our daughter. She is happy, engaged, and excited to attend. The staff provides a very high level of care and goes above and beyond to meet individual needs. The nursery setting is idyllic and the children are provided with excellent experiences. We are very thankful for all that they do.

My daughter thoroughly enjoys her time at Abbot's Nursery. She has more friends in her class and has blossomed. She speaks positively about the teachers and the activities they do. She is excited to go to nursery which is so lovely.

My daughter has grown in confidence during her time at Abbot's Hill Nursery. She looks forward to going every week and the staff have been wonderful at helping her grow and develop over the last two years.

We are delighted to have found such a wonderful environment for our 18-month-old son to be in. As a parent, it is always a nerve-wracking experience leaving your child and returning to work but the staff at Abbot's Hill Day Nursery made the transition easy and it is so reassuring knowing our son is so well looked after and cared for. He is constantly learning new things thanks to the time and effort of the staff and we love the paintings and cards he brings home too. Thank you for everything!

My child always looks forward to coming into nursery which is always a good sign.

A very pleasing happy place to send your grandson to. The staff go above and beyond to meet every child’s needs. All members of staff there are excellent and very approachable. Will definitely recommend this nursery.

This is an outstanding nursery. Our eldest daughter started in the Tiny Toes room the week she turned 1. Initially, she found settling in difficult, having been born during lockdown, however the staff were just wonderful with her and within a couple of months we saw a huge change in her attitude towards nursery. We have been impressed, day in and day out, since she started. She now asks to go in at weekends and is absolutely thriving there, now in Footsteps, and our youngest daughter joins in a few weeks. Staff at the nursery are kind and professional and very attentive to the children. It is a joy to see the children so happy at drop off and pick up every day. The activities and facilities at the nursery are also exceptional. The catering is of a very high standard too, with home-cooked food and a wide variety of snacks and meals. It is a safe, warm and educationally stimulating environment and we would urge anyone considering the nursery to view it and see how wonderful it is.

The facilities are great and are always being refreshed and updated. 'Forest school' and the exploration walks are a particular favourite for our son.

Two of our daughters have been cared for in Abbots Hill Day Nursery & Pre-School since not long after they each turned 1. The care has always been truly brilliant. They have been given such kind, loving and wonderful care and have learned so much. The staff are both warm and professional and the nursery is always innovating and finding new ways to engage and stimulate the kids. I always enjoy drop off and pick up, I always feel it is such a positive, safe and lovely place to be! The outdoor space is brilliant and they are always having so much fun playing out in the summer when I come to collect. I would recommend it without hesitation.

We have been very happy with Abbots Hill Day Nursery & Pre-School. Our daughter has been very happy there since she started in January 2023. She seems to have fitted in really well and has progressed a lot in the short time she has been there. Our other daughter, who left a few years ago, was also very happy.

All of the staff at the nursery are caring compassionate and professional. The children are well looked after and the food is great. The facilities are amazing with so many toys to play with and activities to do.

Thank you so much for all you do nursery team!

The staff go above and beyond every single day!

My daughter joined Abbot's Hill nursery a few months ago after we moved to the area and comes home so happy, talking about her fun day. The staff are superb, they have got to know our daughter so quickly, their communication is great - they will call about any concerns, email response is very speedy, and they give a nice update at the end of the day. Our daughter speaks so fondly of her key worker (our extended family even know about her). The staff have picked up on development areas well, and that one on one advice and attention is impressive when they are managing many children. I cannot recommend Abbot's Hill nursery enough, the play activities are varied and the children go for walks in the impressive grounds. The picture updates during the week are so wonderful.

My son has been attending Abbots Hill Nursery since he was 9 months old. Two years on it is like a second home to him. Never did I imagine we’d have to weather a pandemic together. The management and staff at the nursery have been amazing throughout and have adapted so well. Communication throughout the pandemic has been excellent and the safety but also the emotional well-being of the children has been a priority. The pandemic aside, the nursery provides an amazing inclusive environment for children to develop and thrive.

We have been very pleased with the level of care and attention to detail our child is receiving. At the start, our daughter took some time to settle in and the staff were excellent in making her feel happy and comfortable as well as regularly updating me. Now she can’t stop talking about nursery, her friends and teachers. She is really excited to see everyone each morning! We have seen fantastic progress in all aspects educational, developmental and personal with our daughter and hope to send our son too this year!

The staff at Abbot's Hill Nursery are very professional and caring towards all the children. They always offer a range of activities for the children each day and I’m continually pleased with how attentive they are to the children. I’m so pleased my son attends Abbot's Hill nursery as he’s always super happy! I’ve been particularly impressed with how well the nursery has dealt with the pandemic this last year, constantly reviewing policy and adapting where needed but always putting the safety of children and parents first!

We are so pleased that we found Abbot’s. Our daughter loves attending and we really enjoy hearing updates about her day and looking at pictures of her engaging in different activities and happily interacting with the staff. Communication from the nursery has always been excellent. Settling in was a bit different for us due to lockdown but nursery staff really made the effort to get to know our daughter and she settled in really quickly which is a credit to the staff and their nurturing yet personalised approach. Thank you for all that you do!

Our son has attended Abbot's Hill nursery since he was a year old. Our experience of the nursery has been superb and our son has thrived, both physically and emotionally, in the nurturing and stimulating environment created by the staff. We were particularly impressed at the way in which the nursery has responded to the challenges caused by the pandemic and have been reassured throughout by the precautions taken to keep everyone healthy. I would not hesitate in recommending the nursery to others or sending other children there.
