The nursery is fantastic, the team caring and compassionate and awesome educators, the management team are approachable and responsive.
My little one loves to go to nursery.
The fee structures are flexible and sessions are at times that support working parents

I absolutely adore St Bart's as not only it is a welcoming nursery, but the staff are outstanding. The management team is superb, and every staff member has been exceptional. My little girl adores nursery and I really appreciate all the updates and photos. I love to see all the creative activities
she is so lucky to take part in. The Explorers 3 team have been a dream to work with. They are so thoughtful and my little one has came home with cards, Christmas decorations and beautiful artwork. As a teacher myself I know how much work goes into key activities. I really feel every day is well planned out and this is so appreciated. I look forward to picking my little girl up every day. Thank you to all the staff for your passion, dedication and care for all the children in your care.

I have two children at St Bart's, both of them love their days there. They arrive eager to get to their rooms and are still smiling happy and playful when I pick them up 10 hours later. The staff are all super friendly and my kids regularly talk about them as friends when not at nursery.
The
7:30 opening is really helpful. The fee structure has flexibility so we are able to save some money for elements we don't need (early/late is optional, nappies fee is optional).

My son has been at St Bart's for 3 years now and is truly thriving due to their care, support and education. I am beyond pleased with the staff, facilities and most importantly my son is happy and enjoys his time at nursery. Communication with his key worker and the management is excellent and
rapid. I feel all children here are deeply cared for and their best interests and potential are taken into consideration. I highly recommend St Bart's.

Lovely nursery, the staff are all very kind and informative. I appreciate all the photos of the activities enjoyed and what food and drink has been eaten throughout the day on the app, as well as the variety of food offered.

My son has settled in so well at St Barts and is thriving. He absolutely loves each member of staff and you can tell they have so much love for him and the other children. He skips through the door and gives them all a big hug each morning which is lovely to see. I also love the home cooked food
served for meals and snacks. Lots of variety served and my son is a great eater with great table
manners learnt! Overall, I would recommend St Barts to any parent.

My daughter has been attending St. Barts since she was 14 months old, staff took care and patience to make sure that she was happy and settled. The staff are all highly skilled, approachable and take the time to get to know my daughter. They are all so kind, always make sure that she is happy and
will come up with new ideas to help her overcome any barriers. She takes part in varied activities to meet her development and ensure that she is making excellent progress against the Early Years Framework. Meals are varied and I love that she is trying new foods that she wouldn't eat at home. My daughter loves coming to nursery and she will be sad to leave to start school. Highly recommend St Barts!

I cannot fault the care and attention my daughter has received so far at St. Barts.
Whilst pricey we have felt that what the nursery provides in terms of activities and food has been well worth the price.
We do feel that our daughter is truly cared for by the nursery team and she very clearly
loves being here.

Amazing care.
My daughter now loves coming to you.
We are very lucky to have her with you.
Even when we have needed flexibility, you have always helped us achieve this. Your staff are kind and caring; evidenced by my daughter reaching out for them when we arrive.

My granddaughter came to St Bart's having not settled at a previous nursery. This was an upsetting time for the whole family and felt like a failure on our part. But right from the start, the manager and staff at St Bart's put us at ease, listened to our concerns and gave us reassuring updates
throughout the day until we knew my granddaughter had settled. Cannot praise them enough for helping us through this time. Lovely nursery, lovely staff, and great management.
18 November 2022
The staff are fantastic, happy, enthusiastic and reliable; they truly care about person-centred care. My son has a few health issues, which the staff are great at dealing with. I feel safe leaving him in their care. He has made friends and learned lots at St Bart's.
18 November 2022
I am so pleased with the nursery and always recommend. My daughter loves her time here, and with the app being used correctly, I have no worries and love the pictures. The staff are always so helpful and accommodating. It's been great having two children attend the nursery at different times (3-year
gap) and still the same high standards and friendly staff.
18 November 2022
The nursery is always clean, and the teachers are always helpful; they always go above and beyond for every child in their care. and the app keeps us all updated on everything our kids are eating and doing.
16 November 2022
The staff at St Bart's are lovely (that includes operational staff and St Bart's management specifically). My children literally run into the nursery each morning and leave with huge smiles on their faces. The children get the chance to be creative, have scheduled garden time and a few times have
been taken out into the local town to visit the railway station, pumpkin patch, etc. The staff takes the time to get to know each child, making time to understand their individual needs and highlighting what makes them special. I couldn't ask for more. Unfortunately, head office aren't the easiest to deal with and have made things quite difficult previously hence the low management rating but the staff on the ground at the nursery are the very best.

Lovely, friendly, well-experienced staff.
The nursery setting itself is amazing, with lots to do for the babies and children and plenty of outdoor play areas.
I adore how they have transport so they can go out and about in town or surrounding areas.
Fresh, daily prepared meals and snacks
provided for that is such a big yes, yes for me knowing my little one is getting warm, fresh meals during the winter time.
Only nursery I have known to provide nappies and baby formula too; it is such a relief and saves so much money when it comes to providing for children.
My little one settled after a few weeks and is enjoying their time at nursery.
I'd highly recommend this nursery, without a doubt.

A very caring community where all staff we encounter show high levels of attention to our child. Very good communication, both face to face and via the app.
Staff focus on key skills that our son needs to learn alongside the fun play.

From the moment we were shown around, we knew it was the right place for our daughter. She has come on so much in terms of development since joining earlier this year and comes out every day so happy, chatty and smiling!
The staff are fantastic. From the settling in sessions to now, the staff make
us feel at ease and go out of their way to find out about us as a family and our daughter. There have been occasions where we needed to change a day at fairly short notice, and it is never a problem, and the staff are all very approachable.
The app is great and keeps us up to date with what our daughter has been up to during the day.
I can’t speak highly enough of the nursery and staff, and a huge thank you to them for what they do!

Amazing nursery. Look after the children so well. Couldn’t praise the staff enough. They are amazing and so friendly. My child loves it here and is being really well treated, and is engaging and learning so much.

An amazing nursery. With a very attentive staff that gives love and care to the children. Kids are grouped per age, and they do lots of activities during the day, inside and out. The app where we can follow our child’s day and communicate directly with the staff makes a big difference. Pictures of
activities are sent during the day, and observations about the development are shared with the parents. We also choose the nursery for the flexible hours that they offered. We really recommend the St Bart’s nursery. We feel confident to let our child there in a safe place.

My son has been at St Bart's since the beginning of the year, and I honestly couldn't fault his care. The staff are attentive and accommodating - nothing is too much trouble. The meals they provide are healthy and varied. We are so happy with how he has thrived since starting. We've registered his
baby sister to start in a few months. Highly recommend Spring at St Bart's!
