Seriously impressed - my son is very happy here!
10 March 2026
Our daughter started here at 11 months old and we have been so happy with the care she receives. The nursery genuinely feels like a home away from home. The staff are incredibly kind, adaptable and clearly care deeply about the children.
It gives us complete confidence leaving our daughter knowing
she is in such a nurturing environment. The children enjoy lovely developmental activities during the day including sensory, creative and play based learning, which she clearly loves.
We also really appreciate the amazing home cooked food the children are given. We feel very lucky to have found such a warm and supportive nursery.

We are absolutely delighted with this nursery. The staff are incredibly caring, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. From the very beginning, they made both my child and our family feel welcome and supported.
The environment is warm, safe, and stimulating, with a great variety of
activities that support learning through play. I've seen such positive development in my child's confidence, communication skills, and social interactions since starting here.
Communication with parents is excellent - we are always kept informed about daily activities, progress, and any important updates. It gives real peace of mind knowing our child is in such capable and nurturing hands.
I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and inspiring place for their little one.

Our child has been at HDC for almost 6 months, and he has loved it! He has built such wonderful relationships with all the staff and generally enjoys himself.

HDC Dartmouth is fantastic! The staff are amazing & caring & always go above and beyond.
They engage in many outdoor activities, including social events outside at the nursery, at the carehome and in the community. My daughter is near enough every week out of the nursery setting, enjoying the
beach festivals, walks, park and so on.
I would highly recommend HDC Dartmouth!

We have loved sending our little boy to Humpty Dumpty. He always seems to be happy and having fun. He's approaching pre school and already has an interest in letters and numbers. He eats a wide variety of healthy food. The staff really care about him and he's so safe and happy there.

HDC Dartmouth is a fantastic nursery. My child's knowledge, understanding and speaking ability has come on in leaps and bounds. The staff are wonderful and caring, and they do so much to stimulate learning and physical development. I credit the staff for the excellent progress my child's making.
Thank you from a very grateful parent.

Overall a lovely nursery . Staff are friendly and helpful. They take the time to do amazing activities in and outside of the nursery . My little boy absolutely loves it there and loves all the staff. The staff are reassuring throughout the day and are happy to work along side you if there is change
or things you need to start like potty training .

I could not ask for a better nursery for our daughter. To be honest I never want her to have to leave! I am constantly amazed by the care and imagination put into everything they do. Their updates are so thorough and full of wonderful memories. We feel so blessed to have HDC near us- it's an
incredible place.

We were extremely worried about sending our little boy to nursery as he was very attached to us and had very little contact with anybody else. The baby room team were excellent at settling him in and in reassuring us that he was loving his time at nursery by sharing regular and detailed
feedback/pictures. We can tell that our little one has made real and meaningful connections with the team and we feel confident going to work knowing that he is being looked after by people who show real passion and care for each child.
The management team are very helpful and approachable. I really love that the Manager and Deputy appear to be really hands-on alongside the team; making a point to really know each child and family as well as being present in the rooms overseeing everything that happens.
We are very thankful to the whole team for helping our boy to settle into nursery and for all the lovely experiences they give him.

Adore HDC Dartmouth! The team are remarkable and have so much fun making each day with the children so special. It's clear just how happy and content the children all are there. Recently the team have started to create videos of their big adventures out and about in the community. It is brilliant to
witness how polite and engaging all the boys and girls are when meeting new people. HDC have an ongoing relationship with a local care home (The Fleet) and due to the frequency of their visits, you can really see the bonds being made between the young and the elderly. Learning isn't just from books HDC have a really holistic approach.
My dealings with the management team have always been really positive and certainly have no issues with getting speedy responses. Can not thank the team enough for everything they are doing for not only my nephew but the others in their service.

The staff are fantastic, always so warm, friendly and calm. Our daughter loves attending HDC Dartmouth. The app is regularly updated with their activities and meals and there's always some lovely photos.
The learning is excellent and they will happily mix ages of children if they think this will
help improve their development.
Our daughter has made some great friends and is always talking about the staff.
Highly recommend!

We absolutely love HDC Dartmouth for so many reasons. The first is the care, attention and positivity the girls bring to our children. They are extremely aware of each child's needs, applying their expert knowledge & experience to manage situations, accommodate differing schedules and help to get
the best out of them. Secondly is the creativity and joyfulness they bring to each day, one day never looks the same as the next! Whether this be going out on trips to the library, bouncy castle, supermarket or park to baking, crafts, arts, music, role play to educational activities which help build key life skills. Lastly, we love HDC Dartmouth because of the overarching attention to detail they provide in everything they do, notably in communication which is so important. Any child would be lucky to attend this nursery setting. Thank you!

I had my first child back in July '23. Being in the military and always moving around, I was particularly nervous about putting my child into a daycare especially somewhere I had only moved a month prior. Starting a new job myself and my daughter going to daycare I was anxious, however from the
first visit at this daycare, everyone was so polite and welcoming! The process they have to introduce new children is amazing! Benefits both mother and baby, really helped with adjusting back to work. My daughter has grown and progressed so much being at this daycare! She gets to do so many activities, eat a brilliant variety of healthy food! My daughter has only cried once, this was when I picked her up the first full day she had. It goes to show how much she loves it there! The app is brilliant especially when I'm away from her for a week or so. And they are always happy to take calls if needed.

My son started nursery when he was 10 months old and it was very difficult and challenging, it took him long time to adjust and settle. We were greatly supported by all the team members including the manager during his settling-in period. All the teachers are nice and caring ladies who genuinely
like my son and that's what is the most important for me. He likes them back and is very happy there. I also think that him starting nursery at very young age helped with his development. He is also building immunity. I can only recommend for your child to go to our nursery.
