Overall Experience

Fantastic nursery! Our son had never been in childcare before starting at Vita et Pax nursery so we were apprehensive to start, but from day one he has loved going in which has been such a relief. The nursery Teachers, Teaching Assistants and office staff are all wonderful, it feels like a family where we completely trust them to nurture our son and give him the best care.

Overall Experience

Little Vitas is a safe, nurturing and friendly environment for my 2 year old. The small class size makes me feel at ease and the teachers are exceptionally attentive. My son's language and communication has rocketed. He is constantly stimulated and enjoys days filled with activities and fun. The app I can access is detailed and tells me exactly what he has eaten and what he gets up to each day. He runs into his nursery class every morning without even looking back!

Lovely and kind staff. Nurturing environment, not too many children to teacher ratio. My daughter is very attached to me and has separation anxiety, I am very happy she has settled well and I can trust that she is ok there.

Thank you so much for your lovely words. It means a lot to us to hear that your daughter has settled in and feels happy and safe here.

We're so glad she's enjoying her time with us, and we truly appreciate the trust you've placed in our team.

Kind regards, School Office

Amazing place to bring your children, I especially find it helps my two children who I nanny for with being more independent with playing which is a life saver for me! With having indoor and outside stay and play.
It's gives them an opportunity to play and discover new things they may have not before.

The staff here are so friendly and amazing overall a good 5 stars from me.

Lovely nursery and primary school, small class sizes. Learning through play with support for children who are a little behind their peers. Parents encouraged to be involved and also support children so there is a 360 fun, learning environment. Would recommend.

Review from K M (Mother of Child) published on 19 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter, and son before her, have both had a wonderful experience at Vita Et Pax nursery.
From the moment we joined we were welcomed with warmth and professionalism. The staff are attentive and it's evident they enjoy their jobs supporting the children with their development. The curriculum is engaging and activities are fun and educational. My son joined reception with knowledge of his phonics and this has boosted his confidence and ability.

I've particularly appreciated the ease with which I can communicate with the nursery team. The nursery is also well integrated with the wider school. This access and engagement with older children and traditional school routine is great to help with transition to reception and provides socialisation opportunities. The students are polite, welcoming and all know each other, which means it's not an intimidating environment for the younger children.

My son attends this Nursery and has since May 2024. He is thriving here and has made such positive relationships with staff and children.
We have formed a nice parent network, were we meet up for parties and made great friendships.

The learning outcomes are fantastic he has learnt to write his name and recognise the letters within it. I'm so happy with the nurturing care that is provided by the team and the British values that are being implemented in the everyday care he receives.

Review from Iana V (Mother of Child) published on 19 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter is bilingual. She made big progress with her English for the last year of our stay at Vita et Pax. Of course it is the contribution of all the teachers and staff, because she was constantly playing and showing me how her teacher explained bouncing sounds or stretchy ones. What I would like to mention is the communication between teachers, school and parents - it is amazing, we have an app, in which you can communicate with teachers directly and it helps a lot in understanding things, it helps you to feel confident that if anything happens, Mostly good things - you will know it first and straight away.

I would like to say a big thank you for the warm and kind attitude to our family, and particularly for our daughter. It was a great pleasure to see her first steps in her learning journey. I hope Vita will still keep the same warm and family oriented school, where kids feel like at home, as we felt it from the first day of our staying here.

Review from N A (Mother of Child) published on 13 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son started at the Vita Nursery almost a year ago. He has absolutely flourished in every way during the time he has been at the nursery - he has learned so much! He loves going to nursery as well as his teachers and friends. I feel that the nursery has struck a great balance in stretching the children academically, giving them lots of variety and interesting activities, as well as supporting them to develop socially with their peers and the wider school community within a very nurturing environment. My son is so happy at pick up to show and tell me all about what he's been doing through the day. The school really takes an active approach towards creating a whole family school environment, including the nursery. I have been pleasantly surprised to see the older children helping and looking out for the nursery children. All of the teaching staff clearly know all the children well, and the school community is very wholesome, inclusive and fun.

Kate Newton

I have had the privilege of being part of the Vita et Pax community since 2001, and over the years, I have had the pleasure of stepping into various roles, from Nursery Teacher to Deputy Headteacher. My journey at Vita has been deeply fulfilling, watching our school grow and evolve into a nurturing environment where children thrive, feel safe, and love to learn.

Throughout my time here, I’ve always believed that fostering a love for learning and promoting well-being are at the heart of education. As the Head of EYFS, DSL, and Wellbeing Lead, I strive to ensure that our youngest learners develop a strong foundation based on the values of care, sharing, and fairness. I work closely with my exceptional team to provide a high standard of teaching that is child-centered and encourages every child to express their understanding with both their peers and the adults in the setting.

Over the years, I have seen children grow into confident, thoughtful and successful individuals. It’s an honour to see the children of my former students now walking through the doors of our nursery, which speaks volumes about the lasting impact we have on families and the trust they place in us. The bond we share with our school community is priceless, and I am immensely proud to be a driving force behind such a dedicated and passionate team.

At Vita et Pax, we embrace the belief that although we may all be different, we are all equal. I am excited to continue contributing to the growth and success of our school, fostering an environment where every child feels valued, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential.
