Explorers Elm Park

Attending Explorers Elm Park Station Parade has been so good for my son. His confidence has improved, he is more social and always coming out excited and happy. He had never been to a nursery setting before but he settled in really well here because of the lovely, friendly, and supportive staff. Thank you so much to his teachers Sophie, Rachel, Adam, Bhavanna, Emily (sorry, can't remember everyone's names). I hope you know what a positive difference you all make in our lives. A special thank you to Sophie, his key person, who has gone above and beyond to help us with activities we can do at home to develop his speech and language and the useful reports she has written for him. Another special thank you to Rachel, a brilliant nursery manager, who genuinely cares about the children and has always put my mind at ease. I definitely recommend this nursery for anyone looking for a calm, friendly, fun and safe setting where their child can develop and thrive.

We have had a great experience with this nursery. The staff are kind, caring, and always welcoming. They provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn and grow with confidence. We really appreciate the variety of activities and the regular updates on our child's progress. We would highly recommend this nursery to other families.

Amazing nursery. Extremely attentive and have been really good at keeping parents in the loop. I find them very professional and workers fantastic at their job. Love that they keep us updated on concerns and everything else. Also love their app.

Thank you to the whole team for creating such a warm and nurturing environment.

Choosing a nursery was one of the biggest decisions I had to make as a parent, and I'm so grateful we chose Explorers Elm Park. From day one, every member of staff has been kind, caring and incredibly supportive. My daughter is always happy to go in, and I leave her each morning with complete peace of mind. The communication is excellent - whenever I have a question, someone is always happy to help. I absolutely love the daily photo updates and seeing all the fun, creative activities the children enjoy. She comes home with beautiful artwork, new skills and a big smile every day. I also really appreciate the indoor shoe policy and the exceptional cleanliness throughout the nursery. A huge thank you to everyone, from the wonderful educators to the chefs and support staff. Your dedication, warmth and genuine care make all the difference. Explorers Elm Park has exceeded all of my expectations, and I would recommend it without hesitation.

The preschool is actually amazing. My daughter loved it there and being high risk pregnancy during that time the school were so thoughtful and understood and helped as much as they could when my daughter couldn't go in. They even took time out to drop off some activities for Eliza to do being at home. Honestly highly recommend.

This is the best nursery. My son has been with them since he was 10 months old and he'll be starting school in September. All the staff truely care about my child and offer the support that is needed for both parents and child. The SENDCO is amazing and she goes above and beyond to bring out the absolute best in my child. Highly recommended. Cannot thank you enough!

I would choose them for my young one over and over again.

Management is great. Get things sorted very fast, most of the time when calling in, Rachel just gets things done even whilst still on the phone. Exactly what you need in a manager.

We've been absolutely delighted with Explorers Nursery Elm Park. From the moment we walked in, it felt like a warm and friendly environment, and that feeling has only grown stronger over time. The staff are clearly well trained, attentive, and reliable, we always feel confident leaving our son in their care, knowing he's in safe hands. Safety is clearly a top priority too, everything feels well thought out, from how the rooms are set up to how the staff manage the children throughout the day.

My children really enjoy going to the nursery and come home doing new things and the teachers are all lovely and very easy to speak to. The kids come home clean and always discuss new foods they have tried and how much fun they have had

Incredible nursery with amazing, caring staff. We've sent 2 children here all the way through to primary school and never had any issues. Our children had an amazing time and learned to be independent during their time here. Highly recommended.

Thankyou Explorers for continuing to ensure my child is happy and safe at all times.

We've had a really positive experience with this nursery since our son started. Like many toddlers, he found the initial settling-in period emotional, and as parents we were naturally anxious but the team handled it with so much care, patience and professionalism that it made a huge difference for us.

The staff took time to understand him as an individual, supported him through separation, and built trust at his pace. He now goes in happily, talks about his day, and clearly enjoys the activities and relationships he's forming there.

Communication has been excellent. The app updates and observations are genuinely reassuring and help us feel connected to his day. We also really appreciate the support with his language development (we're a bilingual family) and the collaborative approach with routines and milestones like toilet training.

Most importantly, the staff clearly care about the children. We're very grateful and would absolutely recommend this nursery.

As someone who has tried 3 different childcare providers with my first child, I can definitely say Explorers is top quality!

My son looks forward to nursery every day to see his friends and teachers. We would whole heartly recommend this setting for anyone looking for a great nursery for their children.

Our son started nursery shortly after his 2nd birthday, and it was a challenging time for both him and our family. He was very anxious, and the transition was not easy.

The staff at Explorers, Elm Park were incredibly patient, supportive, and understanding. They made every effort to accommodate his needs, including adjusting his days and hours to help him settle in more comfortably.

Just two months later, the difference is remarkable. Our son now walks into nursery with a smile, looks forward to his time there, enjoys a variety of foods, and has started building lovely friendships. We've also seen a noticeable improvement in his speech and confidence.

We're so grateful to the team for their care and dedication during such an important time in our son's development.

our son has been in Explorers since he was 10 months old and the caring and nurturing environment is exceptional. We were nervous about sending him to nursery but they've made the adjustments so smoothly and look after him so well. They are quite responsive to his needs and ensure that they communicate any changes to us in a timely manner. Loads of activities during the day and he seems well stimulated- on pick ups, he's very happy and chatty and usually has 'upgrades' that he's picked up from nursery.

I'm so grateful to everyone at this nursery for all the effort they make and how kind they treat our kids.

Explorers Elm Park is sensational! From the moment we had our initial visit, the staff were welcoming and kind. This has only continued as our daughter has attend Explorers over the past year. The staff communicate well with parents, they are nurturing and nothing is ever too much for them. They have gone above and beyond to help settle our child into a nursery setting. They come up with innovative and exciting activities for the children every day. They ensure that learning and fun is paramount for all children and I wouldn't want my daughter to go anywhere else. The manager is beyond supportive and will always listen to parental comments. I cannot recommend it enough and any children who attend are lucky to be there with such amazing people.
