Vantage Park Day 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

Both of my boys are happy and settled here. It's a lovely setting and the boys love their nursery staff. They have a great range of activities and lovely outdoor space. I love that they have forest school activities.

We're very happy with our choice to use Vantage Park and would very much recommend the nursery to others.

The manager and staff are lovely, very caring and understanding. My little boy has really come out of his shell since starting. It's nice to have a manager that cares as much about your kids as you do, going to work and leaving your children can be so daunting, worrying if they are safe and happy all day but management make it so much easier.

Our daughter goes to the nursery and couldn’t be happier. The activities they do are all so varied and sound like good fun. The staff are all really lovely and always happy to help and answer questions. Can’t fault the nursery.

Easily one of, if not the best nursery setting in the area. My child thoroughly enjoys going to this nursery and gets excited when he knows it is nursery day. You are sent a weekly sheet via email each week, which lets you know what the children have been up to and what the following week includes, including a food menu for the whole week. Safeguarding of the children is of utmost importance to them, which puts your mind at rest, as a parent. I would also say that Vantage Park has most certainly helped in the development of my child, he always comes home and tells me what he has learnt, which I find very endearing. Also, very clean and has great resources.

Outstanding nursery. The first feeling you get when you walk into the nursery is a sense of 'family' and it's true, they look after the children as if they were their own, showing a considerable amount of tolerance, empathy, understanding, and trust in the children. The nursery manager has done a fantastic job in keeping her staff engaged, following protocol, but also always trying to innovate better ways to do certain things around the nursery, whether it be practical things regarding sandals, sun lotion and so on, or if it's regarding illness and injuries. What's also apparent is that the work environment is friendly and non-competitive, so all the ladies who work there seem to get on very well, which is actually a really important factor when choosing a nursery, I feel. The development structure and format is actually really good, and this is where the chunk of the premium day rate I feel comes into value. 1:1 focus with the child really helps.

As soon as I looked around I knew this was the nursery for my little one. It's a clean and fun-looking space for the children to explore. The weekly sheets are great and useful. It's lovely to see what they have been up to. The management were very thorough with the care plan required for my little one. I know she is happy and safe there.

Both our children go to this nursery, and we couldn't be happier with the service provided. Our children always look forward to coming to nursery every day, and you can see the development in them. A special mention to all the staff who work at the nursery. Very professional, considerate and attentive to the needs of the children. Would highly recommend it to other parents.

Outstanding nursery, I felt it from the moment we visited to my son's first day and he has been at the nursery for 5 months now. The staff are excellent, so kind and friendly and my son's face lights up when he sees them, which is exactly what we wanted. I have no doubt that my son is in the best hands and the staff are really good at telling you about their day and what they have been doing! It's always really informative which I am grateful for. Also, the weekly sheet that is emailed out to parents is a highlight too and there is so much detail about everything you need to know and also a glimpse at what the children have been doing. I found it very reassuring to see my son enjoying himself and learning while he is there. We have noticed a big transition in his development since attending nursery and I can only thank the staff for all their hard work and care in helping him achieve this! The facilities are also exceptional inside and out. We would definitely recommend this nursery!

My daughter has been at Vantage Park Day Nursery for 3-months. I'm so happy with the level of care given and the time spent talking with me every day when I ring to check how her day is going. My daughter always comes home happy and has really developed since attending. She's almost eating unaided, saying lots of different words, and just seems very content. I cannot express how Vantage Park Day Nursery has helped with the transition of going back to work. I feel at ease and happy to walk away once my daughter has been dropped off, allowing me to focus on my job, but knowing I can ring as many times as needed. My daughter always brings items home that she has made, and I love receiving the news sheet every Friday and seeing what she's been up to. Thank you to all of the staff; you have made what I thought was going to be an emotional and hard process seems so natural.

Excellent, safe space for my daughter. Supportive team wo care about the kids and also provide excellent child development. I will send my second child there without hesitation. Particular mention to the care and support given by one member of staff in particular in the 2-3's room.

Absolutely amazing nursery. My daughter has been attending now for over 18 months and absolutely loves it. The staff are so friendly and really care about the development of the children. My daughter talks about the staff and other children all the time when at home and I love hearing her stories each day about what she has been up to. Would highly recommend.

What an outstanding nursery! Our son adores all the staff and they’ve made him feel so at home since he started in July. They’ve been so professional and attentive with his allergy care, which we’re so grateful for and he’s gone from strength to strength with his learning and development. We love hearing about his day and learning about the brilliant activities the staff create; they always sound so fun but also educational. They’re such warm people and we truly appreciate all their hard work helping our son learn, grown and flourish. We’d highly recommend this nursery!
