Review from Lucie F (Mother of Child) published on 15 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

St. Johns Nursery has always gone the extra mile for both of my children who have had a place there and I have recommended it to many friends. The staff are always cheerful and full of inspiring ideas to get the children involved and the relationships that were built still remain for my children and me. A truly warm and wonderful nursery.

Reply from Linda Innes, Manager at St John's Nursery - Redstone Lodge

Thank you, Lucie, for your review. It was lovely to have both of your children come to us and we thank you for choosing us.

Also thank you for all the parent helper support you also gave the nursery, building partnerships with parents is important to us, we thank you for being involved.

We hope both your children are doing well at school.

Kind regards

Linda Innes.

Review from Dayse G (Mother of Child) published on 15 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Moving from a central London Nursery during term time, we had a few reservations about our child fitting into the new surroundings, but no such problem. Within a short amount of time during her first visit, she was off drawing pictures and interacting with other children. The children and staff were always very friendly, and although our daughter has now started Reception, she is still talking about the nursery and how much fun she had there.

Daily reports via email were also extremely helpful, informing us of daily activities, food/healthy snacks eaten, and upcoming events. The outdoor area is also nice and big, with different types of areas for play and interaction. We were very fortunate and happy with the opportunity to send our child to St John's nursery. We wish them and the children every success for the future.

Reply from Linda Innes, Manager at St John's Nursery - Redstone Lodge

Thank you for your kind words and review. It was a pleasure having your daughter at our nursery. She would often have us laughing at the things she would say and do and we loved the fact that she felt so relaxed with us and formed attachments that she gave us our own nicknames.

Kind regards

Linda

My son attends two afternoons a week. He loves it and I really look forward to hearing about his day and what he got up to. The staff are super friendly, approachable and really bond with the children.

They are full of compassion and really encourage my son to be his best.

I’m Currently expecting baby number two and she will definitely be attending when the time comes.

Review from Tracey V (Mother of Child) published on 15 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son took a little while to settle in and the staff really made an effort with him and now goes in happy and confident!

The communication between parents and staff is fantastic and they really make an effort to get parents involved in the nursery.

I would recommend St. John’s Nursery as myself and my husband feel that there is so much passion and care for our son and the nursery is a great place for children to achieve and develop in all areas.

10 out or 10 for St. John’s nursery

Reply from Linda Innes, Manager at St John's Nursery - Redstone Lodge

Dear Tracey,

Review from Jackie L (Mother of Child) published on 15 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son had never attended a nursery setting before and the first day or so was unsettled and the staff were more than happy for me to stay for a few moments until my son was okay.

Within a week he would run in very excited to play with his new friends and teachers and would excitedly tell me stories about the day when I collected him.

The staff are so friendly and helpful. I found this especially reassuring as my son has dietary allergies and had just started potty training at home. The staff are incredibly supportive and always check with me if they are unsure about certain foods due to trace amounts of the allergen.

My son often asks me when will he go back to school and see his friends and I have noticed a huge increase in his confidence and knowledge since starting back in September this year.

Such a fantastic group of ladies and a wonderful nursery group I can't wait to see what my youngest son makes of it when he is older!

Reply from Linda Innes, Manager at St John's Nursery - Redstone Lodge

Thank you, Jackie, for your lovely review. We are pleased to hear you are pleased with the dietary needs we offer, we are lucky to have our chef who we work with to provide the meals to ensure that all dietary needs are met.

We look forward in continuing to provide the service you have already received.
Kind regards

Review from Gemma (Mother of Child) published on 15 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son previously attended St Johns Nursery after a bad experience elsewhere. He settled quickly and built a wonderful rapport with his key worker.

My daughter now attends the nursery and we have been so happy with the overall feel of the setting. Staff seem relaxed and happy which tells a huge amount about the level of care towards the children. My daughter was allocated the same key worker who has built an equally wonderful relationship with her. Keep up the good work St Johns Nursery!

Reply from Linda Innes, Manager at St John's Nursery - Redstone Lodge

Hi Gemma,

Thank you for your wonderful review. We are so pleased to hear that you are happy with the service that we offer and that a good attachment to your children and their key person has been a successful partnership.
We look forward to continuing the service and partnerships with you during your time here at St John's.
Thank you

Linda

Overall Experience

All my children have attended this nursery spanning the past 10 years. I have never had any reason to complain. All my children have been well cared for and all members of staff show love and professionalism in all aspects of nursery life.

Well organised and all my children have been sorry to leave. Thanks guys for paving the way forward towards full-time education.

Reply from Linda Innes, Manager at St John's Nursery - Redstone Lodge

Review from Jodi M (Mother of Child) published on 8 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Staff are fantastic, extremely friendly and so supportive. I chose St John’s due to the outdoor space and from recommendations on the amount of time the children play outside. I would say their outside area is the main area of play. My son has Glue ear and the Nursery has been fantastic with recognising it and helping me get the help required with his speech and language.

Review from Hazel KBC (Mother of Child) published on 8 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I would like to give St John's 10 out of 10. From the moment I enquired into availability, the admission staff were helpful, informative and very responsive. On the lead up to my son joining, we were invited to a parents welcome evening and met all the staff. My son has now been going to St John's for some time now and every day he is offered a huge variety of play and learning including a wonderful large wooded adventure garden, with staff that genuinely care about him. I am so pleased we chose this setting and would wholeheartedly recommend it to others.

Overall Experience
All 3 of my kids have attended St John's Nursery and all have absolutely loved it! My youngest started at 2 and is now in her preschool year. She loves going to play with her friends and teachers and was disappointed at half-term that it was closed!

The nursery has been fantastic for their development and confidence, all the while being loads of fun. The staff are friendly and helpful and the outside space is AMAZING!
