View Full Details of The Old Station Nursery WellesbourneThe nursery and staff are great Staff are all really personable and engaging while having a genuine understanding of our child. We receive regular updates and our child is always looking forward to getting there
Old station road nursery in wellesbourne is an amazing setting. I was so worried about sending my child and being away from him. But they have been amazing and so supportive. Their communication is fantastic and love to get updates throughout the day on how he is getting on. All the staff are so warm and welcoming and look after your child as if they were their own. Would reccomend to anyone wanting a nursery for their child.
We have been using this nursery for 6+ years now and it's fantastic, I would recommend it to anyone. The staff are so friendly, approachable and caring, it really makes the children feel at home and allows the parents to leave knowing their children are in safe care. A great development in the past year is the refurbishment of the kitchen and the subsequent meals that are produced, they are of great quality, which I know my children have enjoyed! One of the main reasons we chose the nursery was due to it's setting and ability to have outdoor play in green areas. The forest school is a particular highlight that the nursery have done a brilliant job starting, our children always talk about it when they have been. The activities on offer really help the children's development and the updates you get each day from the staff, really demonstrate how much care and passion goes into their service.
Our Daughter has been attending the Wellesbourne branch since 2023 and the progress she has made is nothing short of amazing. Every time she has moved into the different stage rooms, the staff have done their upmost to make sure it's a smooth transition. In August, she moved into the preschool room and once again, the patience, dedication and caring nature of the staff made her feel settled and wanted at the earliest stage possible. Stacey, Katie, Ali and the rest of the team are fantastic. So much so, our second daughter is about to embark on her nursery journey in September.
Finlay has had the most incredible year at The Old Station Nursery -we've seen him grow in confidence, independence, and joy. The team creates a warm, caring environment while gently encouraging the children to explore and challenge themselves. Lucy and Ellie in the baby room were so nurturing, helping him settle in beautifully. In the toddler room, Aliysia has continued that care while supporting his development in new and exciting ways. Stacey is a true gem-always there for both children and parents, going above and beyond every day. The activities are fantastic: forest school, cooking, dancing, baby yoga-Finlay adores them all. The communication is brilliant too; the app keeps us updated throughout the day with what he's eaten, how he's slept, and all the fun he's had. It's such a comfort knowing he's safe, loved, and having the best time when he's not with us. We're so grateful for everything the nursery has done for him-it's been a wonderful start to his early years.
Our son has been at nursery for around a year, he has recently transitioned into toddler room from the baby room. He loved his time in baby room and is loving it in toddler room and exploring the new surroundings. All of the staff are absolutely fantastic, they are all so kind and caring. The facilities are absolutely fantastic with lots of outdoor space to explore and a forest school. We love the updates and photos provided on the app and talking with our key worker at the end of the day hearing about all of the activities done in the day. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery and our son is thriving there. Thank you so much to all the staff!
Since my son started at the nursery 3 months ago, at every interaction with every member of staff we have been met with nothing but positivity. The team in the baby room really care about the children in their care, giving frequent and detailed updates on his time at the nursery and development which brings great peace of mind. A fantastic and well run nursery!
We have used the nursery for around 8 years, using it full time for both our children. The nursery has been fantastic under both companies. Staff are amazing and our kids have always skipped in happy - we will miss the nursery and staff once our child leaves this month. Wonderful setting and team. The only negative I would add is the outside equipment in pre school needs some funding including the basic gate locks. Also I am concerned around my son being able to unlock the basic gate locks. Also the low fencing, in which kids can climb. But also very accessible, I would like to see proper metal fencing (like at schools) and high. During core hours 9-5 for a bell system to let people in. It has always concerned me and hate to think about the kids safety from an external view. This comment is purely looking at it as a safety concern.
Our 14-month-old son has attended The Old Station Nursery, Wellesbourne, for two days a week since May. As a first-time parent, I was anxious, but the whole team has been superb. From the start, staff were calm, confident, and attentive. He settled in very quickly thanks to their care and has clearly thrived - he's happy, social, and relaxed after each session. One member of the team who looks after our baby has been especially thoughtful and consistent in her support. The nursery is clean, calm and welcoming, with plenty to engage young children without overwhelming them. Daily updates are detailed, and they take real care tracking development and milestones. Communication is excellent overall, though staff are so hands-on it may be hard to get through by phone. We've had no concerns at all. It's a truly caring and professional setting, and we'd recommend it without hesitation.
My son has been at the nursery for just a couple of weeks, but I can already see the benefit it is giving him. His eating has improved, and his acceptance of strangers too. I totally trust the nursery that they have his best interests at heart, and I truly believe he loves it there.
The old station nursery is just such a fantastic setting, my daughter loves going there, the staff are particularly welcoming and caring, they go above and beyond, whether it is providing excellent activities and resources for the kids to learn about seasons, making a birthday card for a family member at my request, celebrating culture or discovering wildlife etc. my daughter always comes home with something she's done, from baking bread to making creative pictures. My daughter has been there since 9 months old and since day 1 she has warmed to the staff as they are very approachable & calm. Their forest school is excellent and they seem to be focused alot on outdoor play and experiences which is one of the reasons I chose the nursery, due to the extensive outdoor space. The manager and Katie are excellent in regards to communication & I've never had a problem or dispute & feel my queries have always been acknowledged. 10/10 nursery !!!
The manager and all her team are fantastic. My son is in the toddler room and thriving! One staff member in particular is a ray of sunshine and shares his love of the outdoors and it shows! All the ladies are ready for all weathers to spend time outdoors and the children have such a brilliant space to explore at forest school. Feels so safe in the location on the Warwick campus
Our child has been attending for 18 months and has thrived here so far. The staff in each of the rooms we've experienced are caring, supportive and stretching of our child's development. The outdoor space is great and the team definitely make use of it and it's great to see the children outside regularly with weekly trips to forest school a huge highlight for our child.
With two children at the nursery, we couldn't be happier! The staff are all so caring towards both of our children and they really encourage their development. They also work with us on areas such as potty training, so it's a really joined up approach. Couldn't recommend them enough!
My daughter loved her time at The Old Station Nursery Wellesbourne. I was really impressed by the amount of outdoor and forest school time she had, she's a very outsoorsy kid and doesn't mind rain, wind and snow so it's been brilliant for her development! Her key person was a wonderful minder, who our daughter instantly bonded with, and we felt confident every day leaving her in the care of the staff in the toddler room.
Our daughter absolutely loves going to this nursery and this is testament to the excellent staff (she is currently in the Toddler Room) and the wide range of exciting activities. She particularly loves going to forest school, which we believe to be an excellent opportunity for her to learn and get messy, and the extras such as yoga and cookery go far above and beyond the usual activities of painting, playing etc. Her development has come on leaps and bounds since being at nursery and she has built lovely relationships with both the staff and other children who she cannot wait to see each day.
My daughter started at Wellesbourne in December and I was very apprehensive and full of a lot of different emotions. However the team at nursery and in the baby room have made it such a wonderful experience and it has been such a joy. I can see the positive difference and improvement in my daughter every week, and to know when I leave her in the morning that she is safe, happy and totally cared for is all a parent could wish for. I'm so grateful to the team and my daughter is so settled and happy.
Nothing but praise for the fabulous Wellesbourne team. The baby rooms team are phenomenal, and when we drop off our little one, she reaches out for the room team with such eagerness and barely a look back as we leave, it's testament to how fabulous her nursery days are. Lots of outside time was one of our priorities when choosing a nursery, and the direct garden access and forest school enable lots of play outside and getting muddy - a perfect day! The variety of play as well as the continuous educational opportunities are second to none. Thank you all for giving our little one such enriching days.
My two boys joined the nursery at the start of the year after relocating to the area. They both settled quickly and always appear to have a fabulous time when there. The staff are all very welcoming and clearly care a lot about the children. There is so much great outdoor space which initially attracted us to the nursery. Both my children have come on leaps and bounds since starting and we couldn't be more pleased with our choice of nursery!
Since our son started nursery aged 7 months, we have been very impressed with the team, manager and nursery set up. They were very accommodating to our changing circumstances and made us feel at ease when starting our son at nursery earlier than we initially planned. The team in the baby room have been fantastic and we are really starting to see the benefits of our son attending, shown in his development and behaviour.
