My daughter has been attending for just under a year. She loves attending and is always met with a friendly face. All members of staff, regardless of whether they are her key worker or not, know her daily routine very well and are able to give clear hand-over notes of how her day went. My daughter has continued to grow in confidence in their care and I feel she is very well prepared for her transition to school life as a result.
My daughter has really settled into the nursery so well she goes in so contently and comes out so happy. The staff have all been so welcoming, attentive and informative and we can tell she has a great bond with them all. My daughter has grown in confidence and her speech has developed so much since attending. The staff are really passionate about each individual child and take time getting to know them on a personal level and always helping them developing their personal milestones ensuring they're always happy too. Would definitely recommend to anyone
All the staff go above and beyond for the children and I would definitely recommend to anyone considering a nursery / pre school for their child.
The staff really care and develop strong relationships with the children and have a genuine love for the children. My daughter's confidence has grown lots since attending.
Every morning and evening at pick up and drop off they spend the time to talk about their days in detail. I found the nursery to be a lot calmer then others my children have attended which is so much better for the children.
I would highly recommmend this nursery to anyone considering it.
My son has settled in really well with his key worker, which has made such a difference. The facilities are great - clean, welcoming, and well-equipped. There are loads of fun daily activities that keep the children busy and happy. Overall, a wonderful preschool experience!
We absolutely love this nursery! The staff are so warm and welcoming - they really get to know each child and make them feel special. There's a brilliant mix of activities every day, from messy play and crafts to outdoor adventures and even baking. Our child comes home full of stories and smiles! The outdoor space is fantastic, and they're out in all weathers, which we love. The food is amazing too - fresh, healthy, and varied. Our child has become so much more confident with trying new things. Communication is great, with regular updates and photos that help us feel connected. It's a nurturing, fun and safe environment where our child is thriving - we couldn't be happier!
I firmly believe that her experience at the Centre has contributed enormously to her becoming the confident, sociable girl that she is. She has taken to "big school" like a duck to water as a result.
I couldnt recommend HEYC more highly - our second is already down to go when he is older!
She always comes out super happy and is always so excited to go in the morning also! The workers are all absolutely lovely and take such amazing care of the children they look after.
Great nursery, my daughter has high emotional needs and although she struggled at the start, the support given to her, and reassurance to me was brilliant. She's always got a smile on her face going into nursery now. All of the staff are fantastic and I love that the nursery focus on nature and outdoors a lot, using lots of wooden toys and low stimulation activities.
I can't thank them enough
Fantastic nursery - my daughter has been attending full time since she was 9 months old and she loves it. Staff are really friendly and helpful and the activities on offer are excellent. Communication is good and they cater for additional dietary needs really well. Would highly recommend to anyone.
The nursery my granddaughter attends has been nothing short of fantastic. From the very first day, the staff have been welcoming, friendly, and incredibly supportive, creating a warm and nurturing environment where children feel safe and valued. They are always cheerful and approachable, and it's clear that they genuinely care about each child's wellbeing. My granddaughter absolutely loves going, and it's wonderful to see her excitement each morning. She is always engaged in a wide variety of activities, from creative arts and crafts to outdoor play, group learning, and imaginative games. Every week seems to bring something new, which keeps her interested and helps her grow in confidence and skills. It is such a comfort as a grandparent to know she is not only being well looked after, but is also thriving and enjoying her time. I couldn't be happier with the care and attention she receives, and I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent or family member.
I love the app that keeps me up to date with progress and what they've done for the day. I can see that everyone working here loves the job and working with the children, they're so engaged with them, getting them involved in a lot of different activities and sometimes even trips out to different places!
On collection, when they bring her out to us we get an account of how her day went and anything relevant that we need to know. We also get updates during the day via the Tapestry app which we love to see.
The nursery is secure, you cannot just walk in. The doors are always locked and the children are greeted in the morning by their key worker or another member of staff who they know and the same on collection.
The facility also boasts a fabulous brand new air conditioned baby unit which is beautifully furnished and very welcoming. (They allowed us to have an escorted peek).
I honestly cannot recommend this nursery highly enough.
In just a short time, her confidence has grown so much, and she has already learnt so many new things. The staff have a wonderful attention to detail, noticing the little things about her personality and progress, which makes me feel she is really seen and valued. It's also lovely to hear the way they speak about her, with such warmth and genuine care.
I feel completely reassured knowing she is in such a nurturing and supportive environment, whilst exploring and learning new things. I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough.
Our experience at the nursery has been wonderful! The staff is incredibly caring and supportive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. My child enjoys the engaging activities, which promote both learning and creativity. I've seen great progress in their social skills and confidence. Highly recommend this nursery for any parent! It's a great place for learning and making friends.
Our son has been attending Hamble Early Years Centre since he was 7 months old (now about to turn 4!) and we couldnt recommend the setting any more!
The team are always ensuring my son feels heard and we really love the 'home from home' feel that the setting offers.
We love the fact that our son gets to go and explore in the local community. He has been able to go on the bus, go to the park, duck pond, shops... and he comes home telling us everything he has learned from these experiences.
Every week our son will be involved in a club.. he especially likes sports club and cooking club :)
The team at Hamble Early Years always go above and beyond, they have become apart of our extended family.
My son has attended this nursery for over 3 years and always been so happy. He's received good care from staff, as a parent regular updates as well and we could not say a negative word about it. We would 100% recommend
I cannot express how happy I have been with this nursery. Every member of staff has been wonderful, caring and kind. They have guided, and taken great care and genuine interest in the well being and happiness of all 3 of my children that have attended. They are always doing wonderful and creative activities. Thank you so much for all your hard work, time and amazing commitment that you put into nurturing the children at hamble early years.
