My daughter recently transferred to Wolverton Mill Nursery. We were offered lots of settling-in sessions to support her transition to a new nursery. The staff so far all seem very friendly. Kelly from the Oak Room gives a very good handover.
My daughter has settled in very well and seems to prefer this nursery compared to her last one. The Oak Room is very big and has a very nice garden space. My daughter especially loves the climbing frame with the slide.
The only downside is that it is on a higher price band compared to the last acorn nursery.
I would recommend this nursery to any mum who wants to feel completely at ease when dropping their child off, knowing they are in such caring and capable hands.
My son has been attending this nursery for quite a few months now. He absolutely loves attending, wakes up every morning asking if it's a nursery day so he can go and see his friends (staff included). His confidence has grown so much since coming and it's lovely to see. The staff are lovely and it is very clear that they care about the children. I am also updated on what my son is doing during his time at nursery through the app. He is also given a wide variety of food, including some things meals that he hadn't even tried at home. I could not recommend this nursery enough!
Our daughter has now been at Acorn for five months and she absolutely loves it. It's so lovely knowing that every day she goes in she's going to have the best day filled with great and varied experiences. It's a big thing trusting others with the care of your child, but we as parents have felt very supported and reassured by Acorn throughout. We were very impressed with the gentle and flexible settling in period, and want to particularly thank Tom for being so supportive to us as a family during this. The nursery's communication is fantastic, and we've felt reassured by their strict policies surrounding things like them administering antibiotics. The app and being able to see what our daughter eats, nappy changes, sleeps etc in real time is very comforting. Along with Tom, we want to do a big shout out to Emily, Cornelia and Ellie, who are brilliant, and our daughter talks about them a lot at home, as she clearly loves them. Thank you to everyone at Acorn, the nursery is brilliant.
I wanted to share some feedback after my sons first few months at Acorn Wolverton Mill, the facilities are great and my son particularly enjoys the outside areas which are so well equipped for him to explore and play.
The menu is always varied, healthy and he often enjoys the meals and snacks provided.
The staff in the Oaks room are always happy to tell us about his day and share any achievements or concerns. My son is always so happy to go off to nursery which again I think is testament to the nurturing environment.
We've had such a wonderful experience with this nursery! The settling-in process was excellent, and both of my daughters have really thrived since starting. They absolutely love going - even on their home days they ask if it's a nursery day!
My youngest was very shy and scared around people at first, but her confidence has grown so much. Both of their language and communication skills have developed incredibly well, and it's been amazing to see how happy and comfortable they are with the staff. The team are so caring, patient, and attentive - I couldn't ask for a better nursery for my girls.
My child, since being in the squirrels room, has been learning how to potty train. Emily and Tom in particular have been great at supporting with this and providing me with updates. Both Emily and Tom are also great at providing updates about my child's day and what they get up to.
Kelly, although not in my child's room anymore, is also great with her and always attempts to make sure she feels settled when being dropped off when in the oaks room.
Chelsea and the team are always welcoming and create a great environment. I would highly recommend the nursery.
Everyone at Acorn is great to talk to always with a smile on their faces from first home visit to every interaction. All nursery practitioners are fantastic, the girls love coming to nursery every day and they enjoy their time there. The girls have done great progress since joining the nursery and learnt every step of the way. The management has done an outstanding job at updating the premises since taking over.
We are really pleased with Acorn Day Nursery. The team are warm, supportive, and genuinely care about the children. It feels like a safe, happy place where little ones can learn, grow, and enjoy their day.
