Chestnut is a wonderful nursery. They have been taking care of our child for over two years now. The staff is amazing and they take the time to explain the days to the parents at pick up. The nursery is also well located on the recreational ground which means that the children get to go outside often. I thoroughly recommend Chestnut in Cottenham.
We couldn't be happier with the nursery's facilities and staff team. We are looking forward to seeing all the amazing progress she will be sure to make during her time at Chestnut Nursery.
Our child is very happy at Chestnut Nursery. She is always happy to go to nursery and enjoys spending her day with friends. There is always a lot of thought put into their indoor and outdoor activities. This is an excellent nursery with great learning opportunities for the children and their food is fantastic too. We are very happy with the care provided. The staff are very attentive and give great updates and feedback.
They provide engaging activities for the children and the facilities are great. Would highly recommend.
I can't praise Chestnuts Cottenham enough. Both of our daughters are excited to go there every day. The staff are wonderful, genuinely caring and build up really lovely relationships with the kids. Communication is great. They're really supportive of development and have given outstanding support to our daughter who has SEN.
Our little boy started at Chestnut Nursery a few months ago, it was our first experience of going to a formal child care setting. Myself and my husband could not be happier with our experience so far. There are so many things that make the nursery brilliant. The staff are amazing, everyone is so friendly, caring and professional. The nursery itself is modern and spotless. The communication from the nursery is great. Our little boy is so happy there and we as parents have complete confidence and trust in the staff while he is there.
Our little one absolutely loves Monday to Friday as she gets to play with the her friends, do fun and interactive activities and learn from the caring staff. We have 100% faith in the staff, and they have proven time and time again how genuine and kind they are to each other and the children. Five stars out of five!
Wonderful staff and facilities. Excellent communication and very involving of parents/carers/guardians. The nursery app is great and well-utilised by staff. Overall, fabulous nursery and would thoroughly recommend it!
Lovely staff, its not an easy job and they do their best so the children are always happy and in a safe environment. My daughter is always happy and excited to go to the nursery. Thank you and keep the good job.
My son has settled in really well, the staff are patient and caring when he has a wobbly day. All the staff are so lovely and friendly. Love hearing and seeing on the app what they have been up to in the day. Would 100% recommend the nursery to others parents.
The staff are wonderful with him and keep us updated through the app which is super helpful and lovely to see.
He has come such a long way in his development since starting nursery and I can't thank them enough for taking great care of him!
My son settled into Chestnut Nursery really well and has been very happy there. The nursery has great facilities, a garden packed with activities and the food menu is always varied and healthy. The staff seem very dedicated and the nursery is very well managed. Engagement with parents is really good with regular updates and photos on the app and there have also been stay-and-play days giving parents/carers an opportunity to spend some time in the nursery. Overall, we're very happy we chose Chestnut and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
