Overall Experience

My son joined in September when he just turned 1 - I cannot rate Ashbourne Day Nursery enough, the ladies here have really aided his development and has come a long way since he first started. He loves the staff and always gives them a big hug when he goes in. I love seeing what he is getting up to

throughout the day via the app through the pictures and updates that are uploaded; and with stay and plays for mothers day, Fathers day and just regular ones throughout the year, I was able to see first hand how happy my son was in the nursery and how he interacts with children his own age! It is definitely a pleasure to see and I would definitely recommend!

Overall Experience

I cannot fault the care that my daughter has received at Ashbourne since starting in January 2025. Her key worker and the wider staff have built fantastic relationships with her, she enjoys going into nursery and always has a big smile on her face. She has also started to build some friendships within

her room and the social aspect of being around other children has been great for her development. Her dad and I love to receive the updates via the nursery app and the staff always debrief about her day at pickup. It's reassuring to, not only find out about the activities she has done, but also the amount of food/milk she has had and when she has napped.
Overall, we are really pleased with the nursery, the care and attention they have shown towards our daughter and the lovely experiences she has had so far.

Overall Experience

My two children have been going to Ashbourne for 4 months now following the unexpected closure of their last nursery. The staff were excellent at helping them settle in during a difficult and confusing time for them. Any concerns I had were put to rest really quickly as the children were soon literally

running into nursery in the mornings!
It's a really friendly nursery with lots of activities for the children to do and plenty of outdoor time. We receive daily feedback and photos through the parentzone app as well as verbal handovers at pick up.

We know how challenging it can be to navigate an unexpected nursery change, so it's wonderful to hear that your little ones settled in so quickly and now run in with excitement each morning. That's exactly what we strive for, a warm, welcoming environment where children feel safe, happy, and eager to learn! It's great to hear that you enjoy the updates through the ParentZone app and the daily handovers at pick-up. Keeping you informed and involved in their day is so important to us. Thank you for your trust and support, it means so much to our team!

Overall Experience

My son started in the toddler room in November. The week before his key worker had just started at the nursery and together they have been adjusting to the setting.
He loves his key-worker! The girls in the room are always helping us to manage his behaviour when he gets overwhelmed and we are all working

together to help him with his speech. They are friendly and keep me updated on what hes up to each day. I look forward to parents evening later this month!

Overall Experience

Highly recommendable nursery! My child loves the staff and goes to nursery with a great big smile on his face. Recently attended a parent stay-and-play session, and it was great to see how happy my son was in the nursery environment.
