Both of my kids have recently joined Explorers and I am so pleased with them. The staff are so friendly and open to any question or suggestion you might have. Both kids go to the nursery happily every day, which means they enjoy it. I would highly recommend it
Thank you for you review - we are very pleased that you have joined and are settlng in well.
I put my son in Explorers Nursery over a year ago, and can honestly say, it is the best nursery - he absolutely loved it. All the staff are so friendly and so helpful, the staff also take the children out to their local park or on little walks during the day, so they can explore the outdoors, which I think is lovely. My son loved coming back and telling me all the fun he got up to whilst being here, the different activities they do, and he really enjoyed phonics day where they get to learn to sing and dance. Would definitely recommend this nursery to everyone with little ones. Absolutely amazing.
Thank you for your review. It is a real pleasure to know that your little one is having a great time and is sharing his news with you! The staff are great at planning exciting activities around the interests of the children and also taking the children out to the local fruit stall and the park is part of thier routine. It's great to hear that you are having a positive experience.
The staff are absolutely amazing, and I can tell this with my beautiful daughter, she has come on leaps and bounds. She can count to 10, and she is only 2 years old. The staff are fantastic at the job if that's what you call it, they are supportive and love the roles they do. My daughter runs into nursery happy, smiling and excited to be a part of her little school. Not only do they give great healthy meals - lunch, breakfast and snacks, they are so creative, and it says it in the name "Explore" everything through fun and creativity. I feel happy leaving my little baby in their care and know she is well looked after, safe, and most importantly, had a great time. Thank you, to Explorers, would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking. Well done to all the staff, and a big thank you.
Thank you for your review. We are extremely pleased that the staff are recognised for thier efforts in making the children's day filled with good care and experiences to promote development. We like happy, smiling little ones!
Our daughter started nursery 2 years ago at Explorers Aveley and we couldn’t have asked for a better nursery. We know she’s in safe hands with people who love her so much and care for her welfare! Her teachers are so loving and take care of her dietary needs as she’s a fussy eater and her social/physical/mental skills have come on tremendously. Highly recommend this nursery to all!
Thank you for your positive review. The team are very thoughtful with their curriculum and involves mindfulness for the children from a young age.
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.
Staff are caring and considerate of each child’s needs and attentive when required.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.
