We have had a wonderful experience with this nursery and cannot recommend it highly enough. The staff are incredibly caring, professional, and attentive, and both of our children have been very happy and well supported during their time here.
Our daughter settled in quickly and has been so
content, which is a real reflection of the nurturing environment the team provide. Communication has always been clear and friendly, and we have felt confident and reassured knowing our children were in such capable hands.
We are very grateful for the care, kindness, and support shown to our family, and we will truly miss the staff. We would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to other parents.

I couldn't be more grateful for the wonderful experience my son had at this nursery. From day one, the staff made him feel safe, supported, and truly cared for. They didn't just look after him-, hey nurtured his confidence, curiosity, and social skills in ways that made a huge difference in his
early development.
Every day he was happy, excited, and full of smiles when he came home. The team consistently went above and beyond, creating a nurturing environment where he felt seen, encouraged, and understood.
We're so thankful for the role they played in his early journey. It's clear they genuinely care about the children, and that made all the difference. Highly recommended!

Our daughter has just started at Nurtureville and we're so happy with our experience so far. The staff have been very kind in their approach to helping our daughter settle and she's already getting more confident + happy which is a joy to see. Staff always have time to speak to us at the start and
end of the day, and clearly take an interest in how our daughter is getting on. The whole place has a lovely family feeling to it - everyone knows each other and adults knew all the children, not only the ones in their room. We're very grateful to the support so far and look forward to our daughter's coming years at Nurtureville!

We've had a great experience with this nursery, starting with our first who loved it, and our second is currently here and absolutely adores all the staff. The staff have been brilliant with us over the years, very welcoming, vibrant and lovely.

We are really pleased with the care and support provided to our son at the nursery. He has developed so much since joining and really enjoys being there every day. The staff are kind, caring, and attentive, and it's clear that he feels happy and secure in their care. We really appreciate receiving
daily photos of the activities, which gives us a wonderful insight into his day and shows just how happy and engaged he is. It's lovely to see how much he learns while still having fun. He also loves the food provided, which gives us great reassurance. Overall, we are very happy with the nurturing environment and the positive experiences he is having at the nursery. Thank you very much!

Since there has been a change in management we have seen a huge significant improvement in the nursery. My baby has settled well and his development has really come on since he started. The nursery really embed the key person approach and my baby has formed such a good relationship with his key
person who knows my baby so well. Through this smooth transition it has been a huge help in the process of him joining the nursery. But the whole team also need credit. They are all warm and welcoming and happy to chat to you about my baby and his development and give a good detailed handover at collection. It's so reassuring my baby is being well looked after at nursery and helps me know that my baby is in the best care.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe and warm nurturing environment.

My daughter has been attending nurtureville for the last 18 months and she absolutely loves it. She has come a long way and made lots of friends. She can be a little shy but this has helped her come out of her shell. Thank you for taking such good care of her!

My child has been attending this nursery since the age of six months. We have been always happy with the care provided to my child in different stages as a toddler. My kid grew up happily in this place and there was always positive interaction with the staff members. There was good flexibility in
booking slots on an urgent basis and the staff were able to accommodate different requests.
We noticed our child is happy to attend the nursery, enjoys learning new skills and playing in a well-supervised environment. I would strongly recommend this place, a safe and nice environment for a toddler to spend time in.

Our son attended Nurtureville for a year. There were many things we weren't happy about (ambiguous and inconsistent temperature policies, chronic staffing instability, constant change of key persons, limited fresh food /lots of processed, wellbeing of nursery pets, activities repetitive and
unchallenging) but our son seemed to be settled and we wanted to avoid further disruption for him - he'd bonded with the staff. However we withdrew him following signs of poor emotional wellbeing and amid several Ofsted complaints and inspections. We spoke to them about our concerns, and still felt we had no confidence in the leadership and management of the nursery. It's not the first time quality and consistency of provision has been an issue, it seems a sticking plaster approach where things get better for a year or so then go back downhill. There were some nice staff working there, particularly the younger team members who we imagine could have bright futures in childcare. But not at this nursery.

Both my children attend and absolutely love it. The nursery is fairly small and it’s reassuring to know all the staff who are so friendly, caring and down to earth. I have no hesitations leaving my children here. The menu is varied and the open-door policy with the manager is really helpful and
personable. I have no hesitations in recommending and would definitely suggest going for a visit. You will not be disappointed if a 'home from home' feel is what you are after!

Our kids love their time in nursery, are always happy at pick up and talk fondly of the fun they have with other kids and key workers.

Nurtureville in Loughton has without a doubt exceeded my expectations in all areas. I enrolled my son in their baby room in March 2023 and they have been brilliant. They offer a wide range of activities to the children throughout the day, eat healthy freshly cooked food, all areas are always
spotless, clean and tidy and most importantly my son is very happy there. He has settled in very quickly and formed bonds with staff who I can tell really care for him. I am always feeling confident taking my little one to nursery because I know that he will be looked after, loved and happy.
5 stars to Nurtureville Nursery at Loughton!

Our nine-month-old started Nurtureville at the start of 2023 and so far we have been really happy with the nursery.
All the staff are really happy, enthusiastic and welcoming. They go above and beyond in communicating what my baby has been up to that day. We receive updates in person, over tapestry
and in her daily log book.
The activities vary every day which is important to me. Activities include being outside reading books, inside playing with playdough, in a ball pit, playing with sensory toys, lights, bubbles and a lot more. The baby's room has just undergone a refurb and feels fresh and cosy, we love that the room is carpeted! The staff have done a really good job at aligning my baby's routine at the nursery close to what we do at home which is also very important to me and my partner. The variety of fresh food offered is also brilliant. Overall, really happy. Thanks Nurtureville team!

Fantastic nursery. Our daughter has been incredibly happy there for the last 2 years even with a few changes in management. The team are very kind and caring, they do great activities for the kids and it really is a home from home setting. We are incredibly thankful for the work everyone has put in
recently and everything everyone at the nursery does for our daughter. I highly recommend.

Fantastic nursery where the development and well-being of children are clearly the top priority. Staff go above and beyond. There were some staffing issues in spring 2022 which have now been resolved and the team and nursery seem stronger than ever. Loads of fun activities to keep the children
entertained. Good communication with parents in form of a monthly newsletter, daily picture update, and even the occasional parents' evening. Happy to recommend.

Started our daughter at Nurtureville at the start of October and she loves it there! They're all very friendly and caring. Switching from a childminder to a nursery was definitely the right decision for our daughter.
15 November 2022
Both of my sons attend Nurtureville and they are both happy and thriving. There was a period earlier on this year when there were a lot of changes and staff issues but new management has really turned it around. The new staff seem happy and are very friendly and I feel the children are well looked
after, fed well and given plenty of fun activities throughout the day.
