From day one, I have felt that my child's care has always been their number one priority. When I was feeling extremely anxious, the manager put my mind at ease straight away. All of the staff are so lovely and show a genuine interest in and care towards my child. My daughter is such a little character now and is able to express herself freely at nursery because she feels safe and supported, which is a real credit to the team.
I have a little boy who started like 2 years ago and the staff are so friendly and he absolutely loves it , he started in toddler room , staff were amazing and he loved it then he moved to early learners where the staff are always friendly and kind and he was excited for going and the place is clean and tidy and overall a amazing environment all the children are treated the same and it makes me happy that my son has the chance to experience the nursery and he has recently moved to reception room and it's tidy and amazing , this nursery is my most recommended for your children xx, my son has learnt so much he is 3 years old and he absolutely loves going nursery and the staff always welcome him and it makes me so happy he goes there . Highly recommend .
Both my children have attended the nursery, with my younger one still there. They both love going and it makes it so much easier for me as a working mum to be able to be confident and trust the place that my child goes too. They're friendly, trustworthy and the children love the staff in the their room! I always recommend The Abbey.
Superb Nursery, both my girls absolutely love it there! Staff are always friendly and develop great bonds with the children, would highly recommend, my eldest has great memories about her time at the nursery.
The nursery is really flexible so if you are shift workers like us you can agree a bespoke plan to suit your needs and they also offer an early drop-off/late-finish if required.
My two children attend The Abbey nursery and I wouldn't trust anyone else with their care. The staff are all amazing and so attentive to all the children's needs and wants. My daughter has grown so much in confidence since starting this nursery and it's lovely to see them both enjoying their time there. They get lovely cooked meals and regular nappy changes. The activities are great and when it was their big sisters birthday the staff made sure that they made a card for her! They get cuddles when they're upset and I go to work with the peace of mind that they're both happy and well looked after. It's not easy picking a childcare provider and trusting people with your children but I can honestly say I've not worried once with The Abbey. When they first started they called me with updates on how they were doing and send regular updates and photos on the app. They genuinely care for all the children and have a such a great relationship with them all.
Fabulous nursery! My little girl loves it, she's only 1 and goes in happily! The staff are amazing with her. You can really tell how much they care for the children. The nursery cook always makes healthy yummy food for my daughter which is amazing because she's now always happy to try new foods. Overall they are a fantastic nursery!
When we go to pick our baby up from nursery he says hi and then walks off to continue playing. It just shows how much he loves and enjoys his time at the abbey.
The staff are so helpful too and nothing is an issue. Helping an extremely anxious first time mum with her worries and keeping me up to date if ever I asked. Thank you!
My little boy started The Abbey nursery in May when he was around 9 months. I was returning to work, and I felt so emotional about this next chapter for the both of us. The team at The Abbey made this transition so much easier for us as a family, offering full reassurance that he was in safe hands. The settling in sessions were well structured, providing clear information about the nursery and the staff were really keen to understand my sons routine to ensure they followed this as much as they could in the setting. The relationships they have built with my son are fantastic. They know his little ways, and always keep me up to date about his day and also his development. He's come on so much since starting, and I can't wait for him to continue his journey at The Abbey. The staff go above and beyond, and I couldn't be more thankful.
My son Lincoln loves going to nursery, he's always happy and clean when I come to pick him up and the staff are always attentive glad to see him. We're given good feedback on his activities during the day and any progress he's making developmentally. The food is good and made specially on site and Link eats all of it every time. I'm very happy leaving g him in the care of the Abbey.
The staff are absolutely fantastic - friendly, welcoming, and always there with a smile. They've built such a lovely relationship with him, which puts my mind at ease, especially on days when he might be upset at drop-off. The atmosphere is always happy and positive, and the environment feels so safe and nurturing.
I'm so grateful for the support and care they provide - it really makes all the difference knowing he's in such a wonderful place.
The staff are great & care so much for all the children. Each day is filled with different activities to encourage the children to learn & grow.
Both girls have developed greatly during their time there.
I cannot speak highly enough about this nursery! They have been absolutely brilliant with my child, always attentive to her needs. Whether it's providing a comforting hug, encouraging her to build confidence, or offering assistance with potty training, the staff goes above and beyond in their care.
The caregivers are not just lovely and friendly, but they also maintain excellent communication with us as parents, keeping us informed about our child's progress and milestones. It's evident that they genuinely care about the children and their development.
I would highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive nursery. Our experience has been nothing short of wonderful.
Great nursery! My little boy started in December and he settled in right from the start. He is making a lovely bond with the ladies in there and I can always tell when I pick him up that he's really enjoyed his day! He eats well, as they always say he has eaten everything offered to him! I can't wait to continue to see his progress here. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the abbey to anyone! I love the fact they have an app so you are able to communicate through there if need be, and although it's not often I really enjoy getting photos through the day off what my little boy has been up to as that puts your mind at ease! A big thankyou from me!
My child absolutely loves attending the abbey nursery. We spend many evenings going through what activities have taken place in attendance. The staff are absolutely wonderful. They have worked with my child to grow their confidence, working on behaviours, language and motor skills and i have been very proud in seeing how far my child has progressed. I am kept very well informed of any issues that arise as soon as they happen, such as minor accidents and illness - always a phone call as soon as possible. The children are always put first, there is a focus on hygiene and security is paramount. I particularly enjoy the end of day notes and conversations during pickup that run through the important events of my child's day such as foods eaten and amounts, timed naps and wet/dry nappy count. Each classroom is designed well for their particular aged children. Nursery fees can be expensive but the Abbey do what they can to keep costs down.
So supportive of our needs for our daughter. The milestones she achieves whilst in nursery make us glad she goes here. They help her with cognitive and speech development and all the while update us daily and provide us with pics and statergies they use on the app. Overall best choice made and so pleased with the care and support given
My child has been happy since starting here. He's come on well in his speech and seems very happy with everyone there. Food is made fresh daily and has a variety of vegetables. He never comes home hungry as they have afternoon tea / snack around 3pm.
The manager is also great, flexible and accommodating when I need to make changes to our usual hours.
The nursery is clean, bright and full of smiling welcoming faces.
The only slightly negative thing I will say is that neither of my children have ever been taken out of nursery for any trips, despite me having signed forms to approve of this.
However, this is only a tiny niggle and overall I would give The Abbey 5 stars, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any other parents looking for somewhere to send their children.
My little boy has started at the abbey this month and we are so happy with the progress he has made already. The staff are amazing especially in the reception room. My little boy loves going to nursery now and loves going to see his teachers. Thank you so much to the abbey!
I will be sad when her journey ends here.
