My youngest daughter went to this nursery for 2 years, and she thoroughly enjoyed it! The staff here are incredibly friendly and open to any quirks and individualities that your child (and their parents) brings to the nursery mix. I am an anxious mother and asked a million questions before she started and requested all the considerations and they did everything they could to make me and my daughter feel at ease. They really took the time to nurture my child’s interests and are incredibly inclusive. We have moved from the area to be closer to our grandparents and the search for a new nursery has been made incredibly hard due to the high standard experience Explorers gave us. I’m still searching! I’d recommend Explorers to all without any hesitation. Thank you.
2 out of 3 of my children attended here and my 3rd child is due to start in September. The ladies are lovely always give feedback if necessary, they always go out of their way to help you and they are always available on the app. My daughter can be quite challenging, however, they make sure the right things are in place for her and the only downside I think is you should be allowed the option to send your child in with a packed lunch rather than them only being allowed the dinners that the nursery provides, but overall I’m a very happy mummy.
Thank you for your review. We are obviously delighted and looking forward to the little one joining us soon! We have children who have dietary needs at the settings and find that by providing all of the snacks and food allows us to better manage the allergies of any children that we might have.
Excellent service as always. By far the best nursery I've seen. Always doing great and different activities with the children. My son has been there for nearly two years and never had a problem, will be very sad to leave come September.
Our daughter is now four and has absolutely loved being at Explorers. The space is lovely and calming with everything they need. You can tell how considerate they have been with the toys/books provided and areas made up for the children. They take the children on outings regularly and absolutely adopt a child-centred approach.
Staff are caring and attentive and build a great rapport with parents, both at the door and via the Famly app. They listen to any concern and her key person is always updating observations and discussing progress and development.
We could not be more pleased with the setting, and most importantly, our daughter has always loved going and has thrived there. We’ll be sad to leave when she starts reception - but would recommend the setting to anyone!
Best Nursery in Town! I am very lucky that my daughter attends this nursery since October 2020. Amazing Staff, you can see how much they care about each child in the nursery. At the end of each day my daughter speaks with enthusiasm about all the activities she did all day. Very thankful that we found this nursery!
My son has only recently started at Explorers Aveley but we are already very impressed with the professionalism, kindness and commitment of all the staff. My son currently has special educational needs and is supported by outside agencies with his development and Explorers have been cooperative and keen to work alongside them to help my son progress. They use the Famly App which is great to keep you updated on your little one throughout the day and seem to be happy to chat about any concerns you may have as they arise. They do plenty of activities with the children to keep them stimulated and provide a substantial meal at lunchtime. Due to my son's speech delay we were very apprehensive about him attending a nursery but the staff at Explorers have gone above and beyond to reassure us. My son looks forward to going and absolutely loves it there.
I love this nursery because they are not doing just the basics. They have PE class every week, they do phonics and meditation.
It has helped my daughter so much to improve her communication skills and to have a lot of friends.
I highly recommend it.
The staff are so nice, the accounts team are so helpful. I love that they take the kids for outings to purchase fruit and veg for example. They teach the kids to prepare food/cook, wash and dry up after themselves. No complaints.
Thank you for your review. We pride ourselves on the professionalism of the staff and the care they provide for the children. We know that our outside space is limited but we are lucky to be able to enhance the outdoor experiences by planning visits to the park which we back on to and go to the...
Where do I start? I was told about this nursery and told nothing but good things. I sent my son there Sept 22, he has come on leaps and bounds. The staff are always sharing pictures (with my consent) on the APP. I see what he eats and any wow moments, no matter how big or small. They venture out to parks and fruit stalls and make our children very independent. The staff are lovely and friendly. I had some personal issues and they have been so adaptable and caring! I wish I knew of Aveley explorers with my first born.
Our son has attended this nursery since September 2022. He absolutely loves it. The staff are so friendly and they are always evaluating each child's development and the parents are informed of their achievements and goals. He adores all the staff there and the contact system they use for parents is great. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.
My son has recently started and I was really worried about how he would settle because he can be quite fussy. But given how amazing the staff and setting are, he has settled amazingly. He has taken so well to the new environment and even after his second session, he has started warming up to other people outside our small family! I couldn’t be more thrilled!
Thank you Explorers Aveley! You are honestly more than what any parent could ask for!
Where do I begin.. as a first-time parent I felt so anxious leaving my son in someone else’s care but within the first 2 days he had settled in so well and his face lit up every time we have taken him since. He was 14 months old fast forward to today he’s now 3 and our daughter is 1 and a half and she’s also been attending the setting since she was 9 months old. They both love it.
They’re easy to approach when you have a concern or need something to discuss.
My two like many toddlers are very fussy eaters yet at nursery, they eat everything. The app is very informative and is regularly updated so you know pretty much everything your child had eaten and done throughout the day. So reassuring.
It is with such a heavy heart that we have to leave but as we are relocating to Australia next week we know how to search for a new nursery there that our children will hopefully love just as much.
We are so happy we found Explorers. They are fantastic with the children and parents. Our son absolutely loves all of the staff, and so do we. They are always willing to help, very accommodating and always supper friendly.
Cannot fault this nursery, both my children love going and they have helped loads with my son's speech. The app they use is really informative as well. We are moving soon but will still travel to this nursery as I wouldn't want to go anywhere else.
My child is always happy to be in nursery. All the nursery staff are really good with kids. They have different activities for child development. The kids learn a lot from the nursery. All the staff are outstanding and extremely nice people. Best nursery so far in the Aveley area.
He learned every day, new steps in his evolution, he's confident with himself and everyone. Thank you.
I cannot fault this nursery at all, my little boy loves going. He always goes in and leaves with a big smile on his face, he has progressed massively in all aspects since attending. The staff are amazing and very friendly. I love that you get updates all throughout the day of everything they have done and eaten which is brilliant.
My son enjoyed each day in that nursery. They are very creative with the activities and learning methods. The staff are friendly, and the management is great! They are always there to answer any questions. The food provided is very good. I would highly recommend this place for any parent!
My son started nursery in March 2021 after all lockdowns and just before his 2 nd birthday. He is loving it! The staff is very friendly; the place is clean and bright. They have a great menu, and the app keeps up updated on what he is doing during the day. Great value for money, and I will highly recommend Explorers!
My child loves going to school. We, as a family, haven’t got a bad word to say about this nursery. My son had been to another nursery and would cry and not say a word. Since being here, his speech has professed so far. We can’t thank the staff enough!
