Excellent nursery, highly recommended. The team are fantastic, knowledgable caring and everything you need. Food is good and varied, well structured days and reports via the app, our daughter loves it!
Excellent staff, very caring, honest and diligent. Clean daycare, well-structured programmes. Highly recommended for all babies.
My daughter started this nursery in May 2019 after having a terrible experience at her previous nursery. I can honestly not fault this nursery, they have been fantastic from the moment I contacted them. The manager, her key worker and all the other staff are amazing and my daughter absolutely loves them and tells me this all the time. She has grown in confidence since attending this nursery and enjoys herself so much it's a struggle to get her to leave each day.
Great care of my daughter. Wonderful friendly staff. Lots of activities for the little ones. They take a genuine interest in your child and acted very professionally when my little girl was ill.
My little boy started at The Old Station Nursery just before his 1st birthday, and we have been very happy with how he has got on there. In this last year, we have seen him gain confidence and develop into a communicative little toddler. The nursery/baby room has a very friendly and calm atmosphere, and I felt that the carers there were experienced and attentive to the children. When my son was very young, they were very accommodating with his routine for naps and mealtimes. They did a range of activities each day, and the outside play area was great. My little boy really loved his key worker, and she gave us lots of updates on the app, photos, comments and video, which I found invaluable. This also meant that on the days and weekends he was with us, we could continue some of the activities and books he had been doing at nursery.
Keep up the great work The Old Station Nursery.
They are always there to listen if you have a problem and nothing is to much trouble.
My daughters (4 and 1) have had a wonderful experience at The Old Station and have thrived in the happy, safe, stimulating environment. The rooms and facilities are excellent, especially the outdoor space which has evolved throughout the year to include more learning and playing opportunities for the children. The staff in the preschool and baby room have been so supportive to our family and cared so well for the children. Very much recommended!
I appreciate being kept well up to date on his learning and all the activities they do. The food menu is varied and they encourage the children to eat new foods and cut their food and use cutlery.
I'm glad this nursery was recommended to us!
My daughter settled so well into the toddler's room. The activities provided each day were interesting and full of fun! My daughter loves it in the toddler room and it's so nice going to work knowing she is happy. The staff are amazing and friendly.
The team in the baby room have made it so easy for me to go back to work after my maternity leave. My son is so happy when I drop and pick him up and has become so much more confident from being there.
Would certainly recommend any parent to this place for their child.
A really caring place for our toddlers aged 1 and 3. Plenty of variety in the activities offered physical, sensory and emotional stimulation. Good use of the outside space and a chance for siblings of different ages to interact which was lovely for us and our children. Lovely food and great at accommodating special dietary requirements. Even though our children only attended one day a week they were properly known and loved by the staff. Good feedback at the end of the day as to how our children had slept, eaten and what they had enjoyed.
We struggled to find a setting we were happy with until we found The Old Station Nursery. My son has so much fun every day, with different activities and lots of outside time always available. He is so happy to go to nursery and I eventually found somewhere I was happy to leave him!
Our daughter's key person is very caring, loving and interested in the development of the children in her care, she even tries to speak to our daughter in Spanish as she knows how important this is for my husband and I.
Three other members of staff have also been instrumental to the successful two months of our daughter's time at the nursery.
We would recommend them with the eyes closed.
Our daughter moved from another nursery to this one and we are so glad that she did. The building is large and clean and full of stimulating toys and activities. The staff go out of their way to make both the children and their parents as comfortable and valued as they can. They are so friendly and approachable and they ensure that they really focus on the individual needs of each child. The outdoor providers who come in and do activities with the children keep each day fun and interesting for the children too.
Before my daughter joined The Old Station Nursery I was worried about leaving her with people I didn't know. As I'm sure all parents are! But after meeting the staff at Old Station Nursery... it didn't take long for me and my daughter to feel comfortable.. they really are incredible!!! My daughter is so happy at nursery! I would recommend this nursery to everyone!! Amazing!
They offer the personal touch and go out of their way to make my girl happy e.g. sleeping aids. I like the 'feel' of the nursery, it feels like a home from home. It's a very happy, caring environment and my girl picks up on this - she is very happy.
