My daughter went to this nursery a few years ago, and now my son has been going for over a year. We love it here. The staff are friendly and professional, the building and equipment is lovely especially the garden and the food is always really good. Both my kids have loved their time here.

There had been a change of location because of the renovations needed for the original nursery building. The indoor space at whipton children's centre looked bright, clean and spacious but the outdoor area wasn't very big. The sensory and soft play room was a great addition for the children.
Now
we have returned to the original nursery site the rooms are modern, clean and spacious. There is a great range of new resources and toys for the children. We are looking forward to when the outdoor space is finished.
Most importantly the staff are warm, welcoming, friendly and keep in good contact when needed. The app they use keeps us well informed about my child's day letting us know about nappy changes, food eaten and how long the naps were. Also we really appreciated when both our children first started they were a little sad at drop offs but the staff would very kindly send a message or a photo to show our children had settled. I would definitely recommend.

Our little boy loves going to this nursery. All of the staff are so kind and supportive. They have worked hard with our eldest and now our littlest is loving life there. The food is always great and we love how the children are fully encouraged to be independent.

The staff have always been so friendly, caring and professional with both my children. My eldest is SEN and Cedars were head and shoulders above any other setting and really set him up for school. My youngest loves going to nursery and is always coming home with new words, phrases and interests
after having such a good time here. Highly recommend

Spring Cedars has been amazing for my child who attends and has attended since 2023. The staff are so caring and attentive. My child has created a bond with each of them and is excited to go to nursery each day. Leaving your child at a nursery is very daunting but since day 1 the staff have gone
above and beyond. They have provided me with so much support, a listening ear and so much helpful advice. My child is possibly a SEN child and they have been incredibly knowledgeable and reassuring aswell as doing all that they can to support my child. The nursery has a homely feel and lots of resources to support my child's development and prepare for school, I especially like that it is a screen free environment. I can't recommend or talk highly enough of the nursery as a whole and am so pleased with my decision to place my child in their care.

Absolutely amazing nursery. The staff are amazing and so kind/helpful. My daughter has learnt so much since she first started there. There are plenty of toys and the staff create engaging and educational activities that my child adores.

We absolutely love Spring Ceders. Staff are kind, patient and compassionate. Fun activities, outdoor and messy play and great communication from staff. Whenever our daughter has been unwell, it is taken very seriously. Staff celebrate achievements and make special occasions. We have no complaints at
all. Thank you for creating a fun, safe place for our little ones.

My two children attend Spring Cedars and they love it there. The staff are always welcoming and friendly when we arrive and collect our children. They have always dealt with any issues in a timely a satisfactory manner. The recent price increase does make the nursery a little expensive compared to
other ones in the area, but as my children love it I have stayed with the the setting. My only criticism is that I would prefer if there was more of a focus on education, as I don’t feel one of my children is learning as much as they should, such as counting and alphabet. I love that the setting uses an app so I can see updates throughout the day. However, it would be nice to get your child’s reviews in paper form so you can keep them. The use of daycare SOS does not work for me, I usually have issues booking my children extra spaces and am unable to make any payments on the app. I would highly recommend the setting to any other parents who are looking for a nursery.

What amazing staff they have at Spring Cedars! My 3-year-old comes home singing and teaching me new songs that I'd never even heard of! She has grown in confidence too, what a chatterbox she has become at home. They also have a wonderful outdoor area, which is where my daughter spends most of her
time, so I hear!
I have to thank the wonderful staff for the way they care for all the children who attend this nursery.
Highly recommend!

Our son has seemed to settle in very well to nursery and always seems pleased to see whoever takes him in the morning, which is always nice. It’s been lovely to be able to come into the nursery at home time now and have a glimpse at some of the things he’s been up to.

Amazing staff and wonderful communication from all staff.
Highly recommended.

Both my children have been to Spring nurseries in Exeter, so we have been with them for around six years! Throughout this time, they have been outstanding. The staff are so friendly, and the site and its garden is just perfect for my little ones. I have been able to drop them off and go to work and
not worry about them at all. I would recommend this nursery to anyone who is thinking about putting their child in a nursery/preschool. Spring also have an online/app service where they update what your child has eaten throughout the day, as well as nappy changes/trips to the toilet and if suncream has been applied. Having this access to the app, with it being updated throughout the day, really puts your mind at ease.

The staff at the nursery are absolutely amazing! Our little one has settled in so well, and he loves going to nursery! The food is great; they are spoilt for choice on the menu! Since the new manager has taken over, the nursery is 100 times better, and the new manager has made such a massive
positive change. We are now very happy with the nursery. Thank you!

Fantastic nursery. Really care about the children. My son has developmental delays and absolutely loves it here and has thrived since starting; they’ve even managed to get him eating things he’s never tried at home! Thank you, Spring Nursery Cedars.

I have sent both my children here and have had at least one child in the setting for almost six years. The staff are always welcoming and caring and take an interest in the children. The setting itself has a wonderful and very large outside space, and the set-up indoors encourages children to be
creative and engage in imaginative play. The children are also taken out to explore their local environment, with trips to the park etc. The nursery adopts learning through play, rather than a more formal environment that can be found at some nurseries, and I think this is very welcome for young children. The dedicated chef cooks excellent meals, and the children are fed multiple times a day. The app used keeps parents up to date with what their child has eaten, nappy changes etc, as well as with what the children have been doing in the week. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the nursery to parents.

Very good nursery. All the staff are great and easy to talk to. The setting itself is amazing, and the garden is huge - very lucky nursery to have such amazing grounds. Lovely home-cooked nutritious meals are great for the children, and my daughter loves the food.

The staff in Spring Nursery are fantastic! I have sent both my children to the nursery. My son (now 4) flourished there and went on to be a confident boy when starting school. When I had my daughter there was no hesitation that she would attend too. The staff are very caring and I feel very
confident in them. The garden is also a huge plus at Spring and they also do lots of trips within the local community - A wonderful place for young children!

My little boy's experience with this nursery has been amazing. He settled in fine from day one. Also has had no problems either, he loves it so much and he asks to go every day.

My son loves it at nursery. He comes home and tells me all the tasty food he has eaten.
Don't think there is anything negative to say.
I would highly recommend this nursery.

We like that fact we can use the app to see what our little one is doing, eating and nap times. It's great that we also get updates and observations from various staff members, so we can see the personal, social, emotional development and other skills they are learning. Nursery to us is like an
extended family as our little one is making new friends and experiences. Well done staff!
