Vantage Park Day Nursery

We really like that the nursery doesn't use an app. They come out with our son and give us a verbal handover face to face about their day and at the end of the each week, there is a newsletter with photos, menu and how what the nursery activities match the Early Years curriculum (there is clearly a lot of work that goes into this). We feel this means the staff are concentrating more on our child/the children, and less on updating an app and there is less use of technology/screens in front of them.

We have had a wonderful experience at Vantage Park Day Nursery and cannot recommend it highly enough. The staff are incredibly friendly, approachable and welcoming, while always maintaining a high level of professionalism. From the very beginning, they made both my child and our family feel comfortable, supported and reassured.

The facilities are excellent, bright, clean and modern. Every space feels safe, stimulating and extremely well cared for, creating a positive and engaging environment for the children.

We especially appreciate how attentive and caring the staff are towards our child's individual needs. They have taken the time to truly understand his routines, interests and personality, ensuring he feels valued, secure and nurtured every day. Their kindness, patience and genuine care shine through in everything they do. It is incredibly reassuring to know our child is so happy, settled and well looked after in such a warm and supportive environment.

I would highly recommend this nursery.

Vantage Park is a wonderful nursery. The staff are all so caring, I always feel reassured being able to drop my children off knowing they are in the best care. The children engage in lots of learning opportunities and there is a real focus on promoting social skills too. They do forest school every week and the children also have the opportunity to bring things in for show and tell themes. The food is very good and both my children eat well there. The nursery provides exciting extracurricular activities such as a sparkler event for bonfire night, leavers performances for the preschool group and lots of celebrations throughout the year. We couldn't be happier with our choice of setting.

My daughter love this nursery and she loves all of the kind, helpful and lovely staff that work there. My daughter always loves telling us about her amazing days she has there, they do loads of fun activities to keep the kids having fun and learning, it's the BEST choice in nursery you can make. Plus the kids eat better there than in a 5 star restaurant, the food always smells amazing.

Overall, Vantage Park Nursery provides peace of mind for parents and a wonderful start for children.

He loves forest school and all the outdoor activities. Couldn't recommend the nursery enough!

This is a fantastic nursery! Our daughter has been attending the nursery for 3 years now, and we couldnt be happier. The staff are fantastic. Professional and friendly. Our daughter loves going in, and has learnt so much from her time there.

My 13 month old daughter settled really great into the under 2's & now waltzes in without looking back! She eats lots of lovely food & is excited every week to go. Being new to nursery it's been a learning curve for us both & VDPN are always there to answer any questions.

From the moment we first toured Vantage Park, we knew it was the right place for our baby. We were so nervous about leaving him with anyone, especially strangers, but we had a gut feeling we could trust them straight away. Our little boy has now been attending Vantage Park for 4 months & we know we made the right decision. As his mother, I really struggled in the early days with drop off, but the staff at Vantage Park made a worrying time so much easier. We knew he was in good hands & that he was being well cared for. Those tough days are now a distant memory & we can drop him off knowing he's spending the day having fun. Every member of staff is friendly, approachable, kind & they genuinely care about him. The staff in the under 2's have exceeded all our expectations, they know our son so well - they know his interests, what he likes to eat, when he's happy, tired or having a bad day. He is learning many new skills & developing so fast, we can hardly keep up. Thank you Vantage Park :)

My son is currently at Vantage and he loves it too. It feels like activities are really adapted to suit children's preferences and development. The staff are currently supporting us with potty training which is a massive help!

Communication is always clear and we are very happy with our nursery experience!

Our son has been attending Vantage Park for 3 months and we are so happy with how he has settled in so far. As to be expected, as he is our first born, we were all feeling nervous and apprehensive about him starting but, the team who work at Vantage Park could not have been more lovely and supportive in putting any of our worries at ease. 3 months on, he is thriving and genuinely seems to love every day he spends there. The thought that goes into the planned activities each week is amazing and we have really seen him develop so quickly during this time. He has really formed bonds with the Under 2's team, as have we and it's really lovely to see how he's so happy to go in each day - and sometimes seems reluctant to be picked up to go home! We moved to the area unexpectedly during the summer and are so thankful we managed to find Vantage Day and the team.

The staff are consistently friendly, caring, considerate, and always very kind and smiley. They truly listen to us and our needs, which was especially important at the beginning. The activities that they plan are great and tailored to each child and age group. We woud really recommend this nursery!

Our daughter has been attending Vantage Park since she was 9 months old (she is now 3) and she loves it! She has been cared for and looked after brilliantly throughout that time. Her development is excellent and I can tell that she learns loads as well as having fun and enjoying her days with her friends. The staff are all amazing and I feel very happy knowing she is in very capable hands while we are at work.

Vantage has been our daughter's first and only nursery, and we cannot recommend them enough! From the start, when the current Nursery Manager was leading the Under Twos room, we've seen a consistent commitment to care and communication. Our duaghter loves the nursery staff. The leadership team handles changes promptly and thoughtfully - a noticeable difference compared to other nurseries we've experienced with our older child or heard about from fellow parents. Any concerns we've had (which are rare) have always been met with empathy, professionalism, and swift resolution.

They're also fantastic at supporting social development - our daughter has built strong friendships and has felt loved, secure and included throughout her time there.

P.S: Equipment rating -> wish there was an app for parent comms, pics sharing with email notifications, nice to have only.

A brilliant setting that has helped my children settle quickly and learn new skills. The colleagues there are kind and enthusiastic about the children. I've had poor experiences with nurseries previously but Vantage Park has been exceptional.

Our 2 year old son attends this nursery and we are very pleased that he does. We moved him from another nursery and the contrast is huge. There are lots of activities and a real focus on engaging little minds. We feel his key worker really sees and understands him, and is almost as happy as we are when he manages to do new things! The nursery is very well managed and responsive. There are slightly less expensive nurseries but the extra money is obviously spent on things that help our little boy develop and have fun.

The effort that goes into the curriculum and activities is superb, they are well considered, entertaining and appropriate for each room. The meals and snacks are excellent too. Thank you!

I really would recommend this nursery to anyone. The perfect balance for us between structure and security of being a nursery with the individualised care we wanted for our child.

Our child has grown so much in confidence and independence since starting here. The daily activities are thoughtfully planned, educational, and fun-it's clear the team puts a lot of effort into creating a nurturing and stimulating environment. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed
