Hitchin House Day Nursery

We have had such a wonderful experience at this nursery, not just with our youngest who is currently at Hitchin House, but also with our first son, who also had a fantastic time there from the baby room all the way through to pre-school. From the moment we accepted our space, the staff have welcomed us all as a family, making us feel valued and listened to. Our little boy has food allergies, and the management team went above and beyond to support us, ensuring his needs were fully understood and accommodated. They've been so approachable and friendly, making everything worry-free. The care and attention given by the entire team is amazing, and it's clear they genuinely care about the children and families. We couldn't be happier having our kids at Hitchin House.

The staff are absolutely amazing. They are so positive and you can see they have a real fondness for the children. They give you daily photo updates of what they've been doing which really brighten up your day. I've seen both my children flourish under their care and can't rate the staff highly enough.

My daughter attended Hitchin House from the age of 1 until she started school. She is a happy confident little girl, who has had what feels like a head start in life after her experience at Hitchin House. The staff are fantastic at providing creative activities and caring for the children. The facilities are outstanding and my daughter really enjoyed the workshop, dance classes, yoga, sports, and the climbing wall! I would wholeheartedly recommend the nursery to anyone looking for outstanding care for their child.

I couldn't recommend this fabulous nursery enough to any parents.

Huge thanks to the amazing staff and team for going above and beyond, we have never had any concerns and it's lovely to see how excited he is running in in the morning and then telling us about his day. Highly recommended and very grateful we found such a wonderful nursery thank you.

Hitchin House has been a safe haven for us as a family over the past three years. Our son was born bang in the middle of covid, and they made him feel comfortable in what can be an intimidating environment. It was an absolute joy seeing him grow and develop during his time there. He created some incredibly special bonds with key workers and peers along the way. We were always blown away by the facilities and endless activities that were churned out every single day. School has some big shoes to fill. We feel very lucky that we can enjoy it all again now with our daughter now there, who goes in and out with the biggest smile on her face everyday!

I would like to say a big thank you to everyone at Hitchin House. My little one had been to three other nurseries before coming into Hitchin House. Throughout her nursery life, she was always very anxious to the point she would make herself sick. She wasn't eating or sleeping and was constantly wetting herself. Hitchin House was my last hope. From the moment we stepped inside for her first day, I knew as a mother this was where I wanted my child to be. The atmosphere was calm, the children seemed happy, and the staff were happy and engaging with the children. Her key person was amazing when she did her entry assessment. She was calm and gave my little one a lot of attention. All of a sudden my little one agreed to go up for her settle. I held my breath waiting for the tears or for her to be sick, instead, it was all smiles and I also got a little wave. Ever since that day, I knew she was in safe hands. She always was happy when I came to collect her. I could not ask for anything more.

But most importantly, what fills our hearts with gratitude and joy, is seeing that our child thrived so much on all levels since she joined the nursery. And this is thanks to the amazing teachers and staff who are passionate and caring and always open to communicate and provide tailored support, whether that means brightening up a grumpy morning, potty learning or taking the time to speak to a parent on an ad hoc basis. So, whether they are qualified as pre-school or Montessori teachers, or nursery educators, everyone at Hitchin House wears a wizard cloak and we are very grateful for their magic.

Excellent staff that are very attentive. My son can’t wait to run through the door every morning without so much of a ‘bye mum’, which is a testament to how keen he is to spend the day there. He’s been there 8-months now, and we’re very happy with Hitchin House Day Nursery.

I absolutely love this nursery. Amazing facilities and carers. Both my children are so happy here. The level of care they receive is brilliant. And they're exposed to a range of brilliant activities each day. They love going in and then leave with big smiles on their faces. We couldn't be happier.

Hitchin House is a fantastic nursery and we feel extremely lucky that our son is able to attend here. The staff are wonderful - you can see they really enjoy their work and I'm never in any doubt about the quality of care my son receives. The rooms themselves are totally engaging, filled with brilliant toys and equipment, and the activities on offer every day are fun and varied. My son enjoys every day here. I would confidently recommend Hitchin House to anyone.

I am very happy with Hitchin House Day Nursery. The staff are excellent, they really do care about the children and there is not a high turnover so the children have consistency and stability. The nursery has a Montessori type approach and the children are free to engage in what interests them, with a gentle hand now and again helping to steer them in the right direction! I would not hesitate in recommending Hitchin House Day Nursery to other parents.

So pleased that she loves it at Hitchin House Day Nursery.

Would recommend.

My son has been at Hitchin House Nursery for almost 2 years and his time there has exceeded our expectations. The nursery is an extremely loving and nurturing environment for young children, providing them with a range of fun and engaging activities to support their early year's development. The staff are exceptional; the love and care they show for the children are reflected in their work and their communication keeps parents up to date as to what their children are doing and how the nursery is operating as a whole. The skills that my son has gained at the nursery have been invaluable and he absolutely loves going in every morning! Couldn’t rate it enough for prospective parents, it is a relationship with the whole family!

A lovely nursery, with fantastic facilities and very friendly staff. My daughter loves going and when she is at home, always happily chats about it and the friends she has there. She always looks to be having a great time, whilst playing with very varied toys and doing fun activities in the photo updates we get.

Wonderful team, wonderful space. Have been incredibly impressed with the quality of care and the emphasis on learning through play. Our son is very happy there and we will be very sad to head off to school this September.

My child has been here for 8 months now and they love it. The nursery staff are attentive in communications, sending daily photos and are always on the other end of the phone. They have tried to navigate through covid really well and I trust them to look after my child and recommend them to everyone I meet. The facilities are first-rate and include a huge range to stimulating activities. Love it.

Excellent nursery, we feel our little boy is very well looked after and cared for and he loves going to the nursery, it’s hardly ever a struggle and he is always meet by open arms, and very kind and thoughtful staff, who also are very professional and good at what they do.

Both my children are so happy at this nursery. They’ve made lovely friends here. We can’t believe the amazing facilities and activities that the kids get to experience every day. Well done and thank you Hitchin House Day Nursery!
