My daughter has been to other nurseries before we got lucky with Acorns Aviva admission. She never settled in the other nurseries. It made us really sad to see her scream and cry and never settle even after few months. Once my office moved into Aviva it was possible for me to get admission to acorns (Inside Aviva). The teachers and carers there are amazing. They are experienced and know what they are doing. My daughter has now moved to school but we loved every bit of her time there. Lovely people, always caring and great learning for kids. Thank you for all the efforts that goes into getting kids future ready.

We love Acorns Aviva nursery. It's big enough to ensure there's space for all the children to have fun, but small enough to allow real personal care for each child. The staff know my child nearly as well as I do and she has settled in there really well. They treat her as an individual, not just a number and have really assisted with the extra needs my child has, both with her and me! They have really helped us with accessing SENCO services and helping us to understand processes and procedures. I would highly recommend them to anyone, especially if you find yourself requiring a really personal experience for your child. The food always looks and smells real good and my daughter eats so much more there than she does at home! The outside space is great. The enclosed area straight off the nursery is great for burning off energy and the forest school area is great for learning and exploring.

We are really impressed with Acorns Aviva. The staff are really friendly and caring, and keep us well-informed about what has happened during the day. The updates on the app are regular and reassuring, and our child seems very happy at Acorns Aviva after two months. Thank you!

We have both our daughters at the nursery and they both love it there. As parents, it's great to see how friendly the staff are and how they get to know all the children. It's great knowing our girls are safe and happy while they're there.

Acorns Aviva is a fabulous nursery. The staff are so caring to the children and given the small size of the nursery the staff know all the kids and the kids know all the staff. There are lots of special events to bring families in to the nursery and lots of themes for the kids to engage with. I love how diverse these celebrations are.

Acorns Aviva is a great nursery. My daughter has thrived here in the few years she's been attending. She is clearly very happy on arrival and pick up and always speaks highly of the nursery staff and her friends there. She has a varied, healthy menu of food here. She spends a lot of time both outdoors and indoors. There's lots of fun and learning and crafts. The nursery are easy to get a hold of when needed. The nursery is a cosy, warm environment. I'd recommend this nursery to anyone. I have seen great leaps and bounds in her development since attending. I am confident she's had a great start to life with thanks to attending here.

I was worried about my daughter starting nursery but surprisingly she loves going to the nursery now. The staff are warm and friendly. I love the activities they engage the children in helping with their developmental growth. The updates I receive on the app during nursery keep me informed of my daughter's day without being with her. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a nursery for their child.

Our daughter loves going to Nursery at Acorns Aviva. She settled in quickly and has made lots of friends with similar aged children grouped together. We are always impressed with the range of activities they get up to during the day, and are regularly surprised with the verbal and physical development we see in her. The updates via the app are great for information and peace of mind. The food included is an impressive seasonal menu with a good dietary variety, and the staff have always made us parents and our daughter feel welcome and listened to.

My 1 year old has recently started here and he has settled in very well. Staff have made the transition easy, I was worried how my child would take to it but he is happy and so am I. Key worker provides updates throughout the day on parentzone. Really pleased with how it's going so far.

We have been so happy to have both our children cared for at Acorns Aviva. The nursery is a small, warm caring community where all the staff and children all know each other. The building is bright, warm, spotless and well equipped. The staff genuinely know and care about each child as an individual. The food is freshly cooked on site each day, varied, nutritious and our children love it. Parent communication is excellent, and all accident/safeguarding processes appear to be very well set out and followed. The creative activities bring huge joy to my children. My children have grown in confidence, knowledge and life skills and ability through the care and support of the nursery. The fees are good value for this area with no added extras (food, nappies etc. All included in the fees, full 8-6 day). I feel 100% confident each day that they are being well looked after away from me, and I am so grateful to the nursery team for all that they do.

Our children are very happy in the nursery. Every effort is made to ensure children settle in well and routines are always followed. Staff members are professional and work hard to make sure our children feel happy and safe. They always have time to talk to parents. Parents evenings are appreciated and feedback in meetings show staff know children well. However, next steps aren't necessarily always appropriate. Learning goals could be made clearer. Children engage in a range of activities and these are always shared with parents but learning isn't always shared. The nursery environment is welcoming, clean and engaging. And outdoor space is used. We would absolutely recommend the nursery to others.

Our daughter started at Acorns in September 2024 and since we have noticed such a change in her development which we partly put down to nursery and the different things she does there. She used to be really un-keen on anyone that wasn't immediate family but since coming to nursery this has changed for the better and her confidence in general things has definitely grown. All of the staff here are so lovely and kind and make us feel so reassured when our daughter is a bit upset at drop-off time. We know she's so well looked after. The nursery itself is always immaculate and tidy. Thank you all so much for being so lovely and looking after our daughter so well.

My son really enjoys his time at Acorns. They do so many arts and crafts and they are really lovely. All the staff are so welcoming and friendly and my son has thrived here. The food always sounds delicious and my son has such a good relationship with food which I put down to the varied menu.

We've had a very positive experience. The staff are wonderful, very friendly, enthusiastic and approachable. Our daughter settled in very quickly and enjoys going to nursery. The facilities are very good and they do a lot of activities, which is having a noticeable impact on our daughter's development. I'd definitely recommend this nursery.

My son has additional needs and the staff there go out of their way to make him feel secure and looked after, catering to his needs wherever possible. The senior nursery nurses are very good at their job and have a wealth of experience.

The staff are fantastic. Everyone is so friendly. My daughter loves going to the nursery. She is developing so well. I could not ask for more from a nursery. I fully recommend the nursery and plan to keep my daughter there long-term.

Acorns Aviva is a fantastic nursery. Both our children have loved coming here and it is great to see them literally jump with joy as they see their friends each morning knowing how happy and cared for they will be throughout the day. The team put on a wide variety of activities for the children, both indoors and outdoors, and the freshly cooked food is healthy and varied. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Lovely environment for my son to thrive within. All of the staff are so friendly and he is very happy walking into the Nursery. He doesn't even have time for a cuddle goodbye anymore. The range of tasks he completes has really brought on his development. He adores all the staff and knows most of their names. He often comes home with nice drawings and they always make an effort to celebrate all the major events in the UK and the world. Mother's day cards and Birthday present for him help make the personal touch. I would highly recommend and have encouraged other new parents to take their child also.
