Mill House Day Nursery

Our daughter has been 5 days a week at Mill House since she was 8 months old. She is due to start school in September. Mill House has been the most wonderful constant in her life. Everyone who works at Mill House is so professional, kind, caring and fantastic role models for her. She has had so many wonderful experiences and met so many friends. Staff at Mill House are excellent at communicating and addressing issues and the nursery has enriched all of our lives as a family. Children and parents are welcomed in like family and are treated with respect, fairness, flexibility and kindness. I could not have asked for a better place for our daughter to prepare her for school and we will be desperately sad on her final day.

Such a family like environment within the nursery. Our son has been attending since he was about 18 months old and I always feel at ease dropping him off. The days are versatile and filled with both play and learning. Everyone from the class teachers, to management to the chef do the upmost best to provide the best care to all the children. Our Son is leaving for school in August and will miss this nursery so much. The chef makes a diverse range of meals within the onsite kitchen and our son comes home excited to tell me what he ate today as the meals feel like home. We love the managers so much for providing such a comfortable environment for years.

Nothing could be better.

Mill House Nursery has been a wonderful experience for our family. The staff are warm, professional, and truly care about the children. Our little one settled in quickly thanks to the nurturing environment and the strong relationships the team builds with each child. The activities are varied, educational, and fun, from outdoor play to creative arts and storytelling. We love receiving regular updates and photos, which give us real peace of mind. The communication is excellent, and it's clear the team puts thought into every detail. We feel confident and grateful knowing our child is in such safe, caring hands. Highly recommend Mill House to any parent looking for a high-quality, nurturing nursery.

Mill house has really helped and encouraged my child to thrive to the best of his ability. All of the staff and extremely friendly, very helpful and incredibly informative. Every evening I am given a full breakdown of my child's day, from what meals and they ate and whether they ate for breakfast lunch and dinner to what games they played and which friends they interacted the most. I am also given updates by my child who always enthusiastically tells me about his day and what he learned. I can see the growth in him every day and I am really appreciative of the whole team as a collective and the commitment given to helping all children excel. Notice boards are updated constantly so we know what meals are scheduled for the week and we are sent lovely photos of fun tasks and games on the online app, so I can also have an informed conversation at home with my child which encourages him to be as descriptive as possible about his day, with my small prompts due to seeing the online app.

I literally have zero complaints. I'm so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for my children. Thank you to the entire team for everything you do!

Our daughter had an equally wonderful experience, having enjoyed two years at Mill House. We feel so fortunate to have Mill House on our team!

Thank you for everything you did!

I and my husband have always had high standards for child care, especially since it was our first child. Mill House exceeded our expectations, not only are they a family-run business, but the owners are on the frontline every day they run the nursery with their hearts. They put the needs of every child and parent first. I’m so grateful to all the wonderful staff who introduced a safe, structured learning environment for our son. Our son started at 8 months old and what made us so happy was the nursery having a wonderful, calm, clean, happy, wholesome, and homely atmosphere. With its independent sleeping area for the babies. Baby room, toddler room, and preschool have developed our son's social, literary, numerical, physical, and emotional skills to prepare him for school. I’m so proud of how independent he has become and how well-prepared he is for school. Mill House is a magical and wonderful start for any child. Thank you for all your support over the years!

We were really sad to move up to 'Big School' and leave Mill House behind. We recommend Mill House to anyone who asks at any time.

I am grateful for the positive impact they have had on my child’s early years. In summary, they exceeded my expectations in every aspect.

When we discovered our eldest had difficulties speaking, the team went above and beyond to support them, and improvements were made because of this. The management and team at Mill House have made the nursery feel like a home- a safe and happy place, a second family to us.

My daughter attended Mill House from when she was 14 months until 4.5 years old- when it was time to move on to Reception. During this time, she was very well taken care of and learnt so much, developing and growing into her own individual and independent self. The staff go that extra mile to assure you that your children are settled and happy, involved and engaged in their activities. During preschool, as parents, we were guided to understand what our children really need to know before school and how we can support them to develop these skills, especially around communication, feelings, self-care and independent feeding. The transition to reception was met with a level of excitement and confidence that the staff at Mill House instilled in the children, as they were prepared for the next adventure, possibly more than I was as a parent. Mill House Nursery is an extended family for both the children and the parents, and I would definitely recommend it.

I could not have made a better decision for my daughter than to enrol her with Mill House Day Nursery! Highly recommended!

Our son joined Mill House from another nursery when he was 3 years old until he started school. I cannot overstate how brilliant this nursery is and how happy our son was when he was there. The level of care from the whole team is second to none, and it extends beyond the children to our families as a whole. The staff have built a community within the nursery setting that has made life as working parents so much more bearable. Their door is open for any issues we might want to discuss. The setting is safe, nurturing and stimulating for the children and our son had made such strong bonds with the friends he made while there. His transition to school has been that much easier because he was so well prepared and ready for big school even if he was so sad to leave. We now send our younger child to Mill House too and his time in the Baby room and now Toddlers has been brilliant too. A truly exceptional nursery.

Thank you Mill House, we appreciate you!

Thank you so much!

My oldest daughter was at Mill House Day Nursery from 10 months old until 4 1/2, it really was a wonderful experience for her and fully prepared her for starting school. The staff are brilliant, always finding ways to encourage her individual interests and build her confidence and independence. I also found that they go the extra mile with parents - my daughter struggled with nursery drop offs for a couple of weeks after the first period of lockdown, and the staff would always call or message me after I'd left to let me know she was now settled and happy, playing with her friends etc., which I really appreciated. My youngest also started there at around 10 months and at nearly 2 now she is happy, confident and her language has developed very quickly. She loves going to nursery, especially the garden activities, and has formed great bonds with the staff. I'm so happy we found Mill House and would recommend it to anyone!

As a mother, it is so comforting to see how excited and happy my daughter is when she goes to nursery every morning. She loves her teachers, mentioning that everyone in the nursery is extremely friendly and caring. Her development has excelled over the last months which is great to see. They also have lots of fun activities which my daughter loves! So happy I chose Mill House nursery.

My daughter has been in Mill House Day Nursery a couple of years now and has moved from the baby room to the toddler room and now the pre-school room. It has been a delight seeing her grow up and make these transitions in Mill House (and, of course, a source of immense pride for me). I am very well-informed of everything that is happening with my daughter when she is at Mill House and the transitions have been very well managed, in a way that suits my daughter rather than be something pre-conceived based on her age. And now that I am thinking about reception and primary, Mill House has been very active in working with the schools I am considering, both to help me prepare and make them aware of what my daughter needs and where she is in her development. All the staff know my daughter well and seem to genuinely care about her well-being and her development. Really feels like a wonderful community at Mill House and really happy that my daughter is part of it.
