Our child has been at HDC Kingsteignton since she was 7 months old. She is always so happy to go into nursery in the mornings and always comes out with a smile on her face. She likes to tell us all about her day and also talks very fondly of the staff in the toddler room.
We are delighted to read that your child is happy at our nursery and that she arrives each morning with a smile. The team will be pleased to know that she enjoys sharing stories about her day and speaks so fondly of her time with them.
The nursery managers have been really helpful and adaptive to my situation and needs. The staff are always available to discuss anything, and you never feel rushed at drop off/pick up. The use of the app is really good, and is nice to see updates through the day. My son is always kept clean eg nappy changes. The health and safety is taken seriously. The food variety and frequency is great. Most importantly my son is very happy and content there. There is always nice activities for the children. The nursery is clean and modern. I am really pleased with how my son has settled, it's a great nursery with fabulous staff.

All of my 3 children have attended HDC and my son is there now. They have all absolutely loved it. The staff are kind and welcoming and all of my children have been happy and excited to go. There's a wide range of toys and activities and they have a great outdoor space. I genuinely have nothing negative to say at all.

Staff are lovely and knowledgeable. My daughter loves it and has grown her confidence helping her to progress in many ways. HDC is an expensive nursery but id prefer to pay for some where i can trust will take the best care of my child. If there are any concerns, staff are very approachable.
We're delighted to read that your daughter loves her time with us and has grown in confidence. Building trust with families and being approachable and supportive is very important to our team. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
I have nothing but amazing things to say about HDC! They are everything you look for in a nursery, they go above and beyond! Nothing is too much trouble and the staff are super accommodating and approachable. My daughter is thriving and absolutely loves all the activities they do, she always talks so positively about her day and how lovely the staff are to her. They always keep me up to date on what is going on with my daughter, and send pics of her enjoying her time- especially the fun day trips they have out in the community! I have already booked my son a place and I can't wait for him to get settled!
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. The team will be delighted to read how happy your daughter is and how much she is enjoying her days with us. It is lovely to know that you feel well-informed and supported - parent partnerships are so important. We look forward to welcoming your son in the near future!
My son loves all the activities he gets up to, and the staff are lovely and friendly. We've been with the nursery for both children for 4 years, and both have really loved their time there. Would recommend.
We are delighted to read that both of your children have enjoyed their time with us and that your son loves the activities. Thank you so much for taking the time to recommend our nursery.
Our son loves going to nursery and the staff are absolutely brilliant. They helped him settle in right from the start in the toddler room and he is now loving pre-school and has amazing bonds with his room staff. The whole team are amazingly friendly, caring and proactive, always willing to discuss any worries and make us all feel at home. Could not recommend enough.
We are thrilled to read how much your son enjoys coming to nursery and that he settled so smoothly with the team's support. It is lovely to know he has built such strong bonds in pre-school and continues to flourish. Thank you so much for recommending our nursery.
We've had a fantastic experience with HDC Kingsteignton. The staff are consistently friendly and welcoming, creating a warm environment for the children. Activities are engaging and varied, from painting and sensory trays to baking, and always thoughtfully planned. There's a clear focus on developmental milestones, with structured parent meetings that help us stay informed and involved. We also love the day trips, including visits to the pet shop, local farm, and charity food drops, which add real-world learning and community connection. The team responds quickly and appropriately to any illness or injury, and we're always contacted in a timely, reassuring way. We feel confident and grateful knowing our child is in such caring hands.
Thank you so much for your wonderful and detailed feedback. We are delighted to read that you have had such a positive experience with us. Our team works hard to create a nurturing, engaging, and safe environment for every child, so it is lovely to know this shines through. We are especially...
Even when she was struggling to adapt to life in the pre school room as there were more children running around she was supported by her 2 favourite people (Rehanna and Amie-Nicole ) who were able to guide her through until her confidence grew.
Everyone who works there were so supportive and friendly and have definitely left their mark on my daughters life as she keeps wanting to go to visit to say hi.
Thank you HDC Kingsteignton
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. We are thrilled that your daughter enjoyed her time with us and that the team helped her to feel confident and ready for her transition to school - they will be delighted to read this!
The staff are fantastic. Sharon has always been a fantastic support with anything we need and always tried to accommodate. The staff in each room are fantastic, however a special shout out to the amazing nursery workers in babies who have always gone above and beyond our expectations.
Our children have made very special bonds in the 4 years plus we have been sending our children to HDC Kingsteignton. Rehanna, Amie-Nicole, Becky and Angie have stood out particularly. With the foundation of these bonds, it has helped progress their fine motor skills and other skills such as using their cutlery at meal times, putting their coats on by themselves etc.
I couldn't recommend the nursery highly enough. They really have been incredible throughout. Thank you all for everything!
Thank you so much for trusting us with all three of your little ones over the years. It is wonderful to know how supported you have felt and how strong the bonds have been between your children and our team. We are proud to have played a part in your children's development and early years. Thank you for your recommendation.
The team is incredibly warm, caring, and clearly passionate about what they do. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands every day. She genuinely looked forward to going each morning, which says so much about how much she enjoyed her time there.
We're so grateful for the love, support, and fun learning environment that Humpty Dumpty Nursery provides. It's been such a positive start to her early education journey, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to other families!
We are delighted to read that your daughter has been happy and felt welcomed during her time with us. It means so much to know that she looked forward to her days with us, and we are proud to have been part of her early learning journey. Thank you for recommending our setting.
The team at HDC Nursery have been incredibly with both myslef and my daughter. The whole team are amazing but particularly two in particular who have just been phenomenal with my daughter. They are some of the nicest, kindest people we have the pleasure of knowing and my daughter is starting to settle in really well. They have answered all my silly questions, reassures all my worries and have made my transition back to work as stress free as it could have been. Ava has come on leaps and bounds since starting there.
We are so happy to read that your daughter is settling in well and thriving. It is wonderful to know that the team, especially those who have made a special impact, have helped make your transition back to work smoother. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
Very pleased I chose this nursery for my child who has started in the baby room. A fully comprehensive tour was given including how they would evacuate all of the babies in the event of a fire. The staff take the time to get to know the children and I applaud their outstanding care of the entire group daily, as I often see them when they are at full capacity. Their equipment is keep up to date and new, all in working order and at a suitable height for the age of the children. They encourage development at the rate of each individual child and I believe that mine has benefitted greatly from an individual approach. Their use of the parent zone app (similar to tapestry as most will know it) is brilliant, I feel like I am kept up to date almost hourly with that's been eaten, nappies and fun activities. The nursery itself is probably the most expensive in the area but the quality of the care I can't fault. 100% would recommend.
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We're so pleased to hear that your child is benefiting from our approach to development and that the updates through the app are helpful. It's wonderful to know you feel confident in the care we provide. We truly appreciate your recommendation!
My son loves going and has built a good bond with his careers and settled well.
Only one problem we have been waiting on the term time only for quite a while. With little to no information on when we could look at changing. We really don’t want to change but we are losing money.
Fees are high but think that's across the board with nurseries now.
Staff provided a very wide range of activities.
It's clear the children really enjoy being at nursery.
My son has a wonderful time at the Nursery. He has come on leaps and bounds since joining. He was previously with a childminder as I was concerned about how he would develop in a larger setting. All I can say is, I wish I'd moved him to HDC sooner. He's so happy and loves all of the staff. I really value that the food is freshly made on-site too. He gets such a variety and it's nice to be updated daily on the app where I can see he's trying new dishes that at home, he'd never even try. He's also made some great friends and the wider parent community is really lovely.
That's really kind to say, thank you very much, we'll let the team know.
He’s been happy in this setting. The only downside is there has been less feedback than when he was in the baby room.
Thank you for your feedback. This is really important to us and we'll be sure to share it.
This is a fantastic nursery, with very friendly and helpful staff and well organised and run. Our daughter will sadly be leaving soon to start school and I know she'll miss the staff but she'll leave with good memories. The nursery always feels clean, bright and welcoming with plenty of activities and choices for the children to do.
Thank you so much for your review, we really appreciate it!
They’re warm and friendly and I feel happy leaving my daughter with them all day. The handovers are great and I feel informed when I pick up.
The environment is clean, welcoming and open which is a great thing for me as it means the children can be observed by all at all times.
Thank you for your review, we really appreciate it!
