My Granddaughter started here at 8 months old and will be leaving for big school at the end of August, so over 4 years,during which time she has loved every minute of her time at Monton Village Nursery. After 4 years she is a bright confident little girl with with a good grasp of numbers and reading skills and can carry out very adult conversations. She has made many friends during her time here and is looking forward to seeing many of them when she moves to her new school in September. I cannot praise the staff highly enough for the care they have given her,they keep the children fully occupied with creative and educational activities. We initially sent her here on the recommendation of a friend and we couldn't be more pleased with our decision.

My 4-year-old is leaving Monton Village in the summer to go to school and has been there since he was 1 year old. Honestly, it's been the best nursery ever! My 1-year-old is also in the baby room there, and I look forward to him growing up with the same experiences his older brother had.

Monton Village nursery is a fantastic nursery. My little boy has been going since 9 months old and he loves his time there. What makes this nursery stand out is the staff, there is not a high turnover of staff, which is great as it means my little boy can really make bonds with the staff and feel at home and happy. The staff are great with the educational activities but are also very kind and nurturing. They also do other activities such as gymnastics, Spanish lessons and Jo Jingle which really enrich his time there. Couldn't recommend more.

My children have loved attending Monton Village nursery, the staff are so kind & caring. They have worked with me at each stage to ensure my children are thriving and that they have the support that they need.

Monton Village nursery is an excellent nursery and preschool. Both my children love the days they go to nursery and learn so much whilst they are there. The staff are caring, supportive and great both with children and parents. I would highly recommend the nursery and will be sad when my children leave.

Our daughter started here at 9 months and leaves at nearly 5 years old! They provide a great range of activities and messy play. Good outdoor space that gets well used - rain and shine! They're a nursery who isn't afraid to get a bit dirty and stuck into fun activities. It's a really good nursery - very real staff members who are honest, easy to talk to and supportive!

My little girl has been here since she was 9 months old and she'll be leaving to start reception in September. We've been so lucky to have chosen Monton Village Nursery and Forest School, every single person that has looked after her feels like they've become a member of the family and I'm already really sad at the thought of leaving. The care, love and attention they've given her has been incredible and she's thrived educationally as well. She teaches me something new every day! I can't thank them enough and would definitely recommend to others.

We have both our children here from 9 months old, we've kept our eldest here until reception age as we were more than happy her educational needs were being more than met and the early mornings and late evenings meet our needs for working hours. The rooms are lovely and light with separate garden areas for outside play, there are lots of different areas within each room for different areas of development with lots of messy play and the topics for education are brilliant. Pre school have just finished space and now learning about the world, they can all write independently and have actually written their very own novels! The staff are friendly and approachable and easy to build a rapport with. Above all the bond and trust both our children have with the staff there is something else. We 100% recommend Monton Village Nursery and Forest School and will be so sad for our child to leave come summer.

Such a fantastic nursery. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for their baby's nursery. So happy we made such a good choice. The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable, the meals are nutritional, the play activities set up are highly educational and my little boy always has so much fun learning and playing. We are very happy with all the care and attention he receives on a daily basis and nothing has been to much to ask since he started, medication is always given correct times when needed, extra days added on it needed, etc.

I couldn’t recommend Monton Village more. Our son has been there since he was ten months old and the staff there have become part of our family. Our son has additional needs and they have gone above and beyond to help adapt the space for him and ensure he isn’t left behind. He runs out every day with the biggest smile on his face, he absolutely loves it. We wanted a nursery that would focus on fun mostly but also on learning and development, which Monton does to an exceptional level. I’m already excited to send my future children there.

Monton Village is an excellent nursery setting. The staff are nurturing, caring and loving towards both the children in their care and their families. Staff plan exciting and developmentally appropriate activities for children responding to their interests and their needs. My son is thriving under their care. The room leaders are experienced and my son's key person has remained consistent for most of his time at the nursery (he's been at nursery for eighteen months now) she has taken so much time to get to know my son and is truly one of his favourite people! The nursery have a sensible stance on fees, uniform and illness and comparatively to friends with children elsewhere, we have found their policies flexible and well-considered. We couldn't recommend the nursery enough.

My daughter absolutely loves nursery, which makes us feel so happy about sending her there. Every time we pull up she has the biggest smile on her face, and most times runs in without barely saying goodbye. We keep up to date of what she is up to via the app and CCTV. As well as a chat with her teachers upon pickup. She has come on so much since starting in April 2022 and all the staff we have come across so far have been amazing. I would highly recommend.
10 March 2023
Amazing nursery. My daughter joined when she was 10 months and settled in very well, she is now 2.5 years and loves going to the nursery. Staff are very positive, friendly and approachable. The nursery is very spacious and has lots of creative activities to help young brains grow

Monton have been an exceptional home for home for both of my babies from a very young age. They have adapted to my growing needs with ease and have been there to support my children and I every step of the way - from supporting my breastfeeding/expressing nursery journey to teaching my children to recognise their name and count to 10 and beyond. It is hard leaving your children somewhere whilst you go to work - but I have never once doubted or regretted my decision. The staff genuinely adore children and relish in their company. They know my children almost better than myself and have been there to celebrate every success with me through the years. The staff are fun and lively and invested - they make the best playmates for the children whilst still providing the nurture and support that they need to grow both socially and academically. I have loved my experience as a Monton parent - and more importantly I know that my children have loved their time as a child at Monton - thank you!

Our son had a rocky start to life in the nursery as he was born in the pandemic and was not used to socialising with anyone other than his parents. The staff were very attentive to his needs and gave us regular updates about his progress. Now he absolutely loves going in, especially Mondays when music and movement are there. He is very attached to the staff in his room and is very settled, which is a huge relief for us. He is about to go up to the next age group, and we are very comfortable with that.
08 August 2022
My son attended since he turned 1. It has been an amazing 3 years despite the covid period. The staff were very helpful and caring all the way through. Thanks a lot for everything you have done for my son.

We have had an excellent experience with the Monton Village Nursery team. They were hugely supportive during the settling in period and are always super attentive to any concerns or questions we have. Our daughter absolutely loves her nursery days. The staff are highly professional and always available to talk and give regular updates.

Many thanks to all staff for their support over the last years. My kid had such a lovely time at Monton Village Nursery and will miss them all. She always comes home happy and they've done a wonderful job getting her ready for school. Highly recommend them!

Monton Village Nursery has been amazing for our little boy since the day he started. All of the staff are super friendly, enthusiastic and seem to be loved by all the kids. The activities they put together on a daily basis are great and there are always updates and pictures on the app so you can see what your little one has been up to. We wouldn’t hesitate recommending Monton Village to anyone.

Our son loves going to the baby room at Monton Nursery, as soon as he sees where he is he gets so excited. It's so lovely to see as it shows how much he loves going and makes us feel more at ease leaving him. So glad we picked Monton. The staff are amazing with all the babies, how they interact with them is fab. The activities they set up for the babies are amazing and I love looking at the pictures when I'm at work seeing what he's been up to. Just can't fault the staff or the nursery. Highly recommended which I have done and now a couple of friends' babies now attend.
