Our daughter started at Elan last year after we relocated, so we were worried about her settling into a new environment.
Elan however have been nothing but supportive, and our daughter loves the pre school! She is always exposed to a great range of activities, taken out to the library, train station or playground which she loves to talk about when she comes home.
The staff are incredibly professional, always informing us of anything that pops up yet remain feeling like an extension of family for the kids.

Both our boys have been with Elan since they were 9months old, they have always been so happy to go in and have such a fun varied day. Elan give daily updates via an app, including photos and we have always found the staff to be so kind. Management are very approachable. Our eldest has just left for school and we were so impressed and grateful for all the work the preschool did with getting the children ready for school. Our son needed a little extra support at times and the staff were so kind and patient with him. Our eldest has been very happy at Elan, and we are so lucky to have our youngest going through his journey at Elan too.

I've now had two children attend Elan and it really is the most amazing Preschool. My son literally runs in every morning with a big smile (which, as a parent, is all you could ever hope for!)
The staff are so caring, friendly, and responsive - they really get to know each child and provide detailed daily updates. They share photos and personalised notes daily via the app, making it easy to stay connected and see how your child is doing.
The setting is lovely, with plenty of outdoor time in the garden or trips to the park.
There's a strong emphasis on kindness and emotional development, and that really shows in how the children interact with each other.
A standout point is how well Elan prepares children for school (my friends have commented on how much more confident and prepared the Elan children are). My son is already reading and writing at just four years old!
Most importantly, my son is happy, feels safe, and has built a wonderful group of friends. We will really miss it!

Both of my children have been at Elan since 6 and 7 months old. My daughter who started nearly 4 years ago has thrived here and made some excellent friendships I'm sure will continue despite going to different schools as her friends. The staff have always been attentive, friendly and passionate about childcare and I've even recommended Elan to my cousin who was very pleased he decided to change nursery. What has impressed me most is their dedication to getting the kids ready for school and my daughter is constantly practicing her writing and numbers at home and enjoys learning thanks to Elan. Thanks to all the staff and special mentions to 2 members of staff, in particular, for all their help.

My son has been attending Elan Preschool for 18 months having moved up from their nursery setting in 2023. He is so happy at Elan and comes home full of excited chat about the things he has learnt and done that day. The staff are fantastic, offering a perfect mix of caring and guidance, and the activities they arrange for the children are so varied but very targeted at the same time. I feel so confident that my son will be more than ready for school come September and am so grateful for the support Elan offers in this regard.
The garden is brilliant and it's so lovely to see the children running around playing outside when I pick my son up each day. He raves about the food too! I would recommend Elan Preschool to anyone.
