My daughter absolutely loves Acorns ONS Nursery! She walks in every day with a big smile on her face, excited for the day ahead. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff - they are always warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. It's wonderful to see the bond she has developed with her key
workers, and I always feel confident that she is well cared for while I'm away from her. The children take part in a wide range of fun and educational activities throughout the day, and my daughter is always fully entertained. She also really enjoys the food and looks forward to mealtimes, where she gets to socialise with the other children in the nursery.
Acorns ONS is a truly fantastic nursery, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a caring, engaging, and nurturing environment for their little one.

Acorns ONS have given our son a fantastic start and he is extremely happy there. The care and attention given to him has been exceptional and it shows in both his development and how happy he is there.
The nursery is extremely well run and we have complete confidence in their systems and the care
that they give.
The staff are nothing short of magnificent and they clearly care very much for the children they look after. They constantly go above and beyond and they are always extremely thorough with their handovers.
I can't speak highly enough about the quality of the nursery and I am very happy that we have trusted them with the care of our son. And so is he!!

An absolutely incredible nursery! I've been able to have great flexibility at the nursery and they have allowed me to get to see my children during the week when they are in nursery which has been massive for myself and the children. The team can't be anymore accommodating!
The staff are amazing,
they can't do enough to help me or the children, the activities they do, the support they get and their attention to detail are above and beyond what I could have expected.
The nursery is always clean, tidy and kept in great condition. Meal time is always fun to the children and they eat really well.
I can't thank the team enough for their ongoing support and help!

Acorns Nursery (ONS) is a home-from-home. Caring, kind and loving. It's a lovely feeling knowing how well your child is being cared for when you have to go off to work. We used Acorns for our 1st child, and it wasn't even a question where to send our second.

Our son has settled in well at Acorns ONS and loves going to nursery. Staff are attentive and provide detailed info both throughout the day via the app and verbally upon pick up, providing a personal touch that is very appreciated. My sons happiness tells me all I need to know - ONS Acorns is a
great nursery :)

I have two children who attend this nursery and both are cared for at the highest standard and with the most care and attention possible. My eldest has recently had to wear a patch on his eye for large parts of the day and they have been fantastic at following my requests for him to wear it and
adhering to the times I've asked, his caseworkers know him so well and are able to negotiate with him about keeping it on. They do a better job than me most days. The activities are also fantastic, Yoga, sports, painting, STEM activities
Both of my children have thrived here. I wouldn't have sent them anywhere else!

The Acorns ONS nursery facility is impeccable in every aspect. The team are extremely friendly and professional, constantly striving to provide a wide variety of activities for all ages. Safeguarding and cleanliness are top priorities and this is clear to see from the moment you set foot through the
door. It is a place where your child will thrive and flourish, offering an environment that fosters learning, encourages development and exudes happiness.

We've always been very impressed by the care and attention given by all staff. All staff know all children not just their key workers. There's good support and building relationships for transitions to new classes. Wide range of activities for all age groups. Excellent communication with parents.
Our child has never turned down a meal.

Very professional too. Our daughter is very happy there.

My daughter has attended Acorns ONS for just over a year, she is so happy and settled. She always goes in with a big smile and confidently walks off with a member of staff. The staff at this nursery have helped my child’s learning and development massively and I look forward to what’s yet to come in
the next year before she goes to school. She loves the activities she takes part in and loves telling me all about her day at collection, as well as having really in-depth handovers from the staff at the end of the nursery day.
I’d highly recommend Acorns ONS to any parent I know.

Fantastic nursery and great communication and my daughter loves it there. The app is brilliant, having visibility and updates throughout the day is fantastic and puts me at ease every day. Staff are always pleasant and there to help when needed.
14 February 2024
Such an amazing nursery my child has thrived so much and come on leaps and bounds. All the staff from management all the way down to her key workers are super supportive and work so hard. The setting itself is very stimulating with so many different activities that help meet every child's
development according to their age and stage of development. I am so happy I chose Acorns ONS for my little one. She has made so many friends and is always learning new things. I would recommend Acorns ONS to everyone they are all simply amazing.

My daughter has really flourished since starting at Acorns ONS. She has made so many friends and has become very sociable. She will always talk about her day when she comes back from nursery and it's so reassuring. The staff are so friendly and are always happy to help. I would definitely recommend
this nursery as it is simply the best.
14 February 2024
Our baby girl started May 2022 and it's been an amazing adventure since then, seeing how much she has grown the first time I saw her eating by herself with minimal support I had tears of joy running down. How her confidence has increased among other beautiful things. The staff is super amazing, with
great food and a good and safe environment for children to explore and learn.
I will highly recommend it.

Acorns ONS provided such a nurturing environment for our daughter and ensured she was well-prepared for starting school.
The staff were very supportive and got to know the children in their care.
If Acorns ran schools, we'd have applied!

The team at Acorns ONS are fantastic, from day one I just got that warm feeling. My little boy runs in and doesn't look back and is always happy at pick up, having had a great day. The team focus on learning through play, great nutrition and plenty of outdoor play. He started in the baby room and
has progressed from there. Regular reports, parents evenings and family focused open days from Grandparents day to and I have seen the graduation event!
We did start at another nursery in a totally different area but loved ONS so much whilst waiting for availability we moved him full time to ONS. He's so settled.
Highly recommended.

The nursery is bright, spacious and clean. The rooms are really lovely and full of interest for little ones with plenty of toys and different spaces for them to explore. There is also a lovely outside area and the children seemed to have plenty of opportunities to do crafts. The menu is amazing and
my son loved the food, the dining area is really well set up with little tables and chairs for the babies and toddlers rather than traditional high chairs. The staff were fantastic, particularly my son's key worker. Everyone was so warm and welcoming and we got really detailed feedback at the end of the day.

Good, could upload more photos of the kids on the app.
