The Old Station Nursery Heyford

Our child has been a happy attendee of Old Heyford Nursery now for over a year. We could not be more delighted with our experience. The Staff are truly phenomenal. Everyone we have met has been exceptional - from the Chef to the Nursery Room Staff. Our child asks to go to Nursery everyday - even a Saturday. Honestly it is thanks to the Staff that our child is thriving, happy and confident. Thank you to everyone at Old Station Heyford!

Since starting nursery, our son has learned so many skills, and he is clearly happy and thriving when there. The staff have also been really supportive of me as a mother, they always understand how hard it is to leave him and always want to help where they can. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you to everyone who runs Old Station Heyford!

We really appreciate the care and effort the team gives to every child. Thank you to all the staff for creating such a lovely place for children to learn and develop.

A fantastic, stimulating and caring environment. My daughter absolutely loves her nursery days and always happily goes over to whoever greets her each morning. So grateful for the team and what they do for her at TOSN Heyford Park. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending this nursery to other parents.

The staff are also very understanding with parents too, they feel more like family which is so comforting. I couldn't recommend them enough.

This nursery provides everything I could ask for and more. The staff are fantastic. The enthusiasm and genuine care towards the children is exceptional. The amount of kindness and patience provided is amazing. My daughter absolutely loves it at nursery here and I honestly think she feels it is a home from home! I couldn't be happier with the care provided and the progress she has made. Not to forget the delicious home cooked meals she is provided everyday.

The program does a wonderful job of encouraging social skills, creativity, and independence through engaging, age-appropriate activities. We've seen so much growth in our child's confidence and enthusiasm for learning, which speaks volumes about the care and dedication of the team. It's clear that the staff genuinely care about every child and work hard to foster positive relationships among the students. We are extremely grateful for everything they do and would highly recommend this preschool to any family looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery! The staff are absolutely amazing - kind, patient, and genuinely caring with every child. They create such a warm and welcoming atmosphere where little ones feel safe, loved, and excited to learn. The variety of activities they plan is fantastic - from creative play and outdoor fun to early learning experiences that really help with development. The facilities are clean, bright, and well-equipped, making it a perfect environment for children to explore and grow. The meals and snacks provided are healthy, balanced, and freshly prepared, which is such a relief for parents who want to make sure their children are eating well during the day. Another big plus is that the nursery offers a first aid course for parents, which I found incredibly useful and reassuring. It shows how much they care not only about the children's safety but also about supporting families as a whole. Truly an outstanding nursery - highly recommended!

The staff here are more like friends and nothing has ever been too much trouble. I'm so grateful we have been able to have such a wonderful couple of years here. I really cannot recommend this nursery enough.

Cannot recommend this nursery enough, my family will be forever grateful

Our daughter is in the Babies room at the Old Station Nursery and we couldn't be happier! The staff are great - friendly, experienced and supportive. It feels like they've fostered a real bond with our child. We have no doubt our daughter is happy, safe and engaged there. The facilities and activities provided are brilliant. We appreciate the daily updates and pictures via the app.

We feel very lucky that our son attends Old Station Nursery in Heyford. He joined the babies room in October 2024 and settled in really quickly. This is undoubtedly testament to the brilliant job the team do there to make it a fun, safe and stimulating environment for the little ones. They were also brilliantly supportive of us as parents as we too navigated the tricky transition of our son going to nursery. The updates on the app are lovely to receive to see the fun things they've been getting up to and the skills he's gaining. And we also appreciate the events they organise like the Christmas party as it's a nice chance to meet other parents. Can't recommend highly enough!

It's the people at The Old Station Nursery that make this such a fantastic nursery. My daughter settled into the baby room immediately - napping longer on her first day than she ever had at her previous setting. I have no doubt this was down to the warmth of the team and immediate effort they made to get to know my daughter and her needs. The nursery's communications are great, I am sent regular updates and photos through their app - showing everything my daughter has been up to, and skills she is working towards. I couldn't be happier with the nursery and given my daughters face at drop-off, neither could she! I would recommend OSN Heyford to anyone.

The garden could do with a little makeover and make it less muddy.

My little one joined The Old Station Nursery at 10 months (January 24) for 2 days a week and has now gone up to 4 days. She really enjoys going and is happy when going in and coming out every day. They do so many activities, from spending time outside/little trips to the playground to music time and crafts. She has developed so much, which is supported by the key person at the nursery (language, signing, confidence). Lots of updates are available on the app daily. I feel that she is very well cared for at the nursery, with all her needs met. The staff are lovely and are happy to answer any questions.

Our son's current key person is just amazing. She is so lovely. She notices lots of little details and genuinely cares about our son. She puts loads of updates on the app which we really appreciate so we can see what our son is up to throughout the day.

Our son has been at The Old Station since the baby room and he is about to start primary school in September. We couldn't be more happy with Old Station, all of the staff are not only nurturing to our son but extremely supportive of us as parents. There are always different activities going on each day and our son really enjoys the time he spends there. They have helped prepare him for school and also helped him to become a confident little boy who makes friends easily. I couldn't be happier with this nursery and always recommend it to friends and family.

Our little boy had the pleasure of attending Old Station Nursery for the last few months and we really have been blown away with how the nursery looks after the children! Our son spent his time there with the wonderful tots team and the nursery as a whole is run truly magnificently. Their attention to detail from the setting they provide, to the activities they put on is first class. Even minor details like taking all the children on a lovely daily mile walk and everybody in the room waving goodbye in the evenings is so heartwarming. It gave us such reassurance that our son was in the best level of care, we only wish we would pick it up and move it with us! Thank you again to all the staff, you should be so proud of this nursery!

I can't rave about The Old Station Nursery and its staff enough. I have 2 children there, one currently in babies, and another that started in tots and is now in preschool. They both settled in quickly and had a great time. Always happy to go in, always sad to come out but happy to tell me about the adventures of the day. Preschool has helped my oldest flourish. She loves learning and has progressed immensely. I'll be really sad when she leaves to start school and she'll miss the staff a lot. There is a big focus on outside time as well as quieter play inside (I wish the garden was a little less muddy - but when she comes home muddy she's had a great day!). I recommend the nursery to anyone asking for where to send their children! Can't wait to see my youngest flourish in the same way my oldest has.
