Abbot's Hill Day Nursery & Pre-School

Abbots Hill Day Nursery is a fantastic place for toddlers to learn and play, with great outdoor space and caring, committed staff.

I am very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend this school to other parents.

Our little girl, aged 2, is very settled and very happy at Abbot's Hill Nursery after joining in September 2018, following a year and a half at another nursery where things were nowhere as good! The premises and atmosphere at Abbot's is calm, clean, friendly and homely. The staff are professional yet friendly and show genuine care. The fact that it's attached to the school is a bonus as the standard and quality is reflected at the nursery. The management are always responsive. Our little girl is content and we can't ask for more. We can't thank everyone at the nursery enough for how they care for our daughter.

Our daughter started in Tiny Toes at the end of last year. It was a hard transition, but the staff were amazing. They kept us informed and made us feel we could call and check in all day if we wanted! She loves going to nursery and her key worker really made an effort with us all. The staff are very professional. She says the girls' names in Tiny Toes when she is not there! The management are always accessible and go that extra mile, which I think is really important. The nursery is so clean, this was a big factor when reviewing nurseries in the area. You can always tell by a child’s socks and even though she has had them on all day they are still clean! The outside space, sleeping arrangements and the vegetarian menu was a big factor in selecting the nursery. We were surprised that she slept as normal for naps and ate foods she hasn’t with us. Which is a big indicator of whether she was happy or not. Overall all we are extremely happy and have seen her development accelerate.

Highly recommend.

Having only been with a childminder from the age of 1 until the age of 2, I was apprehensive about my daughter's reaction to a nursery environment. I needn't have worried - she absolutely loves Abbot's Hill and wouldn't mind going there on her day off nursery!

The choice of a nursery is obviously a parents' choice in the first place. When we visited Abbot's Hill for the first time, there was nothing not to like - from the friendliness of staff, through to the impressive level of security and the beautiful setting.

I have since been particularly impressed by the helpfulness of all nursery staff I have been in contact with, the level of communication with parents, the way that the child's progress is followed, as well as the quality of the nursery daily menu.

I truly cannot recommend the nursery enough.

Abbot's Hill nursery provides a child a very secure, cheerful and nurturing environment . The added benefit of being attached to the school they get to enjoy Ballet, French, PE and Music which my daughter thoroughly enjoys. As a parent I can work better because I know my child is being looked after well.

I would highly recommend this nursery. The staff are very caring, helpful and supportive. The facilities are excellent. My child has really developed well at this nursery and is extremely happy there. The communication from the nursery is also very good, especially the developmental log which they send to the parents.

My niece attends your lovely nursery and absolutely loves it. She is extremely happy, learning very fast and I enjoy watching the milestones and achievements made via the nursery website. The staff are all so caring and the environment is loving and encouraging. I highly recommend the nursery because of the team and facilities. Thank you for doing such a great job and taking such care of the children.

My granddaughter attends your excellent day nursery. The facilities are wonderful and the staff are excellent. She is encouraged daily and is very happy here. The size of class and location of the classrooms are also commendable, including security for the children (eg when a family member is collecting them, with permission of the parents, they must have the correct password and give their signature on the form). There is a good sized parking area reserved for nursery drop off/collection.

The play area is welcoming and safely contained. The nursery setting in the beautiful grounds of the main school means the children are close to greenery and nature. I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

Our eldest daughter started at Abbot’s Hill Nursery when it first opened. There was no competition, the nursery offers everything you could want for your child. The staff are happy, welcoming and most importantly care for the welfare and education of the children. The nursery is clean, bright, airy, well organised and complete with all the necessary tools and aids for the little ones to enjoy the activities. We now have our second child in Tiny Toes and look forward to both girls moving into the school. I’ve always felt at complete ease leaving my girls at nursery knowing they are in safe hands. All the staff are exceptionally knowledgeable and our key workers have been totally amazing with our little ones. Totally recommend this nursery to everyone!

Our daughter absolutely loves her time at nursery. She adores ALL the members of staff and she has really progressed during her time here. In particular the staff were great at working with us to achieve potty training, they provide us with ideas of what we can develop with her at home and our daughter comes home every week having learnt something new!

I have two children at the nursery and both have made giant leaps forward in the year they have been there.

All staff are friendly and show genuine affection towards the children providing a safe and supportive environment.

An excellent nursery in all areas!

Fantastic nursery with great facilities and staff. Have genuine care for the children and ensure that parents are constantly informed about the childs development and wellbeing.

The staff at Abbot's Hill made us feel welcome and comfortable from the start and have continued to do so over the years. They are not short on providing information on what the child has done while with them and how he or she is progressing. They also have a clear structure of how they advance the child through the learning stages. With all of the above I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a day nursery.

My child has been attending this nursery since it opened its doors from the beginning. We as parents are extremely happy with the level of care received for our child. The level of attention, play and learning is very much tailored individually and the daily feedback is excellent. The regular updates on Tapestry on our child’s development, next level learning and goals are just fantastic. Developmental Learning is almost received in real-time due to this application. It’s also something we as parents can contribute to.

All the staff are caring and friendly and genuinely take an interest in each child regardless if they are in their class or not. In the early days as a new parent, it was really reassuring to get a advice from staff at Abott’s Hill Nursery on my child's development. They have answered all my questions and concerns professionally.

Ever since we moved our daughter from another nursery to Abbots Hill, we couldn't be happier and neither could she! The staff have been incredible and value our daughter and her abilities and needs in a way we couldn't have even expected. She has settled in wonderfully and looks forward to every day she gets to go. They communicate with us daily with pictures and descriptions of what she is doing and her progress. Their attention to detail and care about the whole child is invaluable to us. We can't wait for them to welcome our son in a few months! Between woodland school and French lessons, they really are providing a wholistic early years curriculum.

This really is an outstanding nursery, I cannot praise it and more importantly the staff highly enough. I would HIGHLY recommend Abbots Hill nursery to all nursery parents.

The nursery itself is a fun and bright environment and I think it provides the backdrop for effective learning. Our daughter and our son have had the most amazing time at nursery– had lots of fun and loves the teachers very much.

Our son has been attending Abbot's Hill Nursery since he turned one and we are delighted with every aspect of the Nursery. The facilities and surroundings are stunning. Having visited numerous nurseries in the area, Abbot's Hill far exceeded all the others. The care that all staff take of our son is outstanding and the designated 'key person' continually challenges and offers new opportunities which is clear in his consistent development. Every staff member knows him by name which demonstrates the caring nature of the nursery. A daily log of his activities throughout each day is recorded and provided upon pick up. We also receive regular updates of his activities via the online/app tapestry platform which is very detailed and informative. Our son loves every day he spends at nursery and regularly talks about the staff and other children glowingly. We cannot recommend Abbot's Hill Nursery highly enough and we consider the staff and facilities to be of the highest quality.
