My child has only been there a few months and seems to enjoy it. The staff are lovely, friendly and professional and overall the nursery seems to be well maintained and run- we are happy sending our child there

Our Lady's has been a lovely nursery for our little girl, who started age 1 and is now turning 3. Whenever there's been an issue like my little one not settling quickly, or an injury, I've been pleased that the nursery team have taken it seriously, and there's been really good communication to make sure my little one settled and thrived there. She readily describes some of the staff as her friends, and I can tell a lot of the staff go above and beyond to connect with the children and dote on them. There's excellent and fast communication with staff on the app, which means you're kept up to date, sent lovely photos, and can discuss and agree routine changes easily for your child on the app or at drop off/pick up, or via email with the nursery manager. I feel that my child is safe, known and cared for as an individual, and encouraged to develop and learn in a way that will prepare her well for school. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

I have 2 children who go to this nursery and I am so pleased with our decision to send our little ones there. We live in the next town but decided that the longer drive was absolutely worth it. The staff are extremely caring and my older child names them as her best friends. They have both picked up good manners there, the outdoor space is amazing for little ones, activities are great. My older child misses nursery when she's away. My younger child has a medical condition and I'd say the staff are really vigilant and attentive to him when required. I'm so happy with Our Lady's and I'd 100% take the extra travel to send them there.

Our child has been with Our Lady's for more than two years and their staff have continuously impressed us with their attention to detail, truly caring attitude, and positivity. They also care about parents' wellbeing as well, by listening, supporting and giving helpful guidance when needed. Our child is happy and content there under the loving care of Our Lady's nursery staff.

Our Lady's is a wonderful school and nursery. My son started the day after he turned 2, and within 6 months his speech had improved momentously. He is now 3.5 and I have lost count of all of the new things he's learnt to do and has experienced all because of Our Lady's. My son really loves all of the nursery staff, he is really happy in their presence and looks forward to seeing them as well as his friends. He is really well cared for and we have had support for numerous things - stopping his dummy, potty training, changing nap times etc etc. I am a first time, full time working mum and wouldn't be able to do both without the school. I would recommend the nursery to any family looking for an environment that supports their child emotionally and nourishes their desire to learn!

We moved our daughter to this nursery in January, and they seamlessly integrated her into the class. She loves all of the staff that take care of her, and I never have any struggle getting her through the door, which I take as a good sign! The facilities are lovely and the option to do extracurricular activities is also a plus.

Our daughter joined Our Lady's in May 2025 and the experience has been truly excellent. The settling in process was absolutely seamless and thanks to their professional and thoughtful approach, she skips in every day with the biggest smile on her face. All the staff are very friendly, warm and welcoming and have made our daughter feel so loved, cared for and at home in the setting. The range of activities is very impressive and we enjoy seeing the Tapestry updates detailing what they have been up to each day. We can even see what she has eaten and how long she has napped for! I would recommend Our Lady's to anyone and everyone! We cannot wait for our son to join when he turns 1!

A fabulous nursery where the children really come first. So much care and attention is paid to the wellbeing of the children, the planning of the activities and management of any additional requirements. The investment into the outside space is really noticeable and our child is super settled and confident there. We have experience of other settings in the area and this is our favourite. We are so glad we got our space! We would definitely recommend visiting so you can get the feel of the place for yourself. As full time working parents there is nothing more important than being happy with the childcare setting you choose, and we couldn't be happier.

My son has been attending Our Lady's since he was around 10 months old and is thriving there. The staff are all so kind and attentive, he genuinely loves going and is excited to be dropped off in the mornings. We're really pleased with the learning provisions and in the 9 months he's been in the setting can see they've helped teach him so much from how to sign basic words, early counting skills as well as significantly advancing his verbal and social skills. The children have a wide array of activities available doing regular music and dance classes to name a few. One thing I really like is the amount of time that they spend outside. Each room has a designated safe outside space that the children use regularly. My son adores water play and being outside so this really enhances his experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this rate any parents looking for a setting for their child.

Couldn't be happier with our experience of 2 years + at Our lady's. Our little girl is always so happy at drop off and pick ups. I'm always so impressed with the staff and the activities and extra curricular they provide for the nursery. We couldn't have picked a better place for her.

The staff are what make this Nursery fantastic! So enthusiastic with the children and it really shows how much they care for them. My kids are so happy on drop off and pick up which shows how great it is. Thank you for everything!

Our 20 month old has been at our lady's since January and is absolutely thriving! We were as first time parents apprehensive about our baby going off to nursery but she couldn't be happier! She has such a great bond with all the staff and is developing amazingly before our eyes! We couldn't be happier with the nursery!

It has been lovely watching our child thrive at Our Lady's since they joined at 1 year old. That is thanks to the amazing staff, who are always so kind, caring and really take an interest in each individual child. I'm always impressed at what my child has got up to each day, whether that be music, dance, cookery, PE etc. The staff are so imaginative, coming up with new ways to teach the children. The setting is lovely, with a newly refurbished garden area, and a great indoor space too with multiple rooms and additional space. It really has a family vibe to it. It is an excellent insight into how the school operates too. We are so pleased with OLPS that our child is staying on for school.

Fantastic nursery and pre school. Both my children have been and I can't rate it enough. Always happy to go in, enjoy their day, and the staff are so friendly and approachable. Always kept up to date through the app etc.

I have used Our Ladys for both of my children from the age of 1 through to school age. The staff, setting, environment and atmosphere created by the staff is joyful, educational and fun. I have recommend it to friends via word of mouth for years.

My son started at Our Lady's nursery when he turned 15 months, the nursery staff made the transition to nursery life easy and a pleasure. The support, guidance and care that the staff have all always shown him is fantastic. This has supported him growing into the confident young boy he is and they have prepped him well ready to start his next adventure in Reception! The staff are all very friendly, caring, compassionate and on hand if you ever need them. I have always felt very confident that my son is being looked after and cared for well by his key worker and all other staff! Highly recommend this nursery!

Our lady's is a wonderful caring setting for children. Both of our 2 have been very happy there. The staff are extremely committed and full of enthusiasm to go above and beyond. They are also very attentive to any additional needs and regularly communicate. They get involved with all different celebrations and whatever is going on in the world. We loved all the extra curricular activities such as music, dance, mandarin and swimming when they are a bit older. And because it's attached to a school it is ideal environment for the next step up to school. The outdoor space is huge and the room. Options inside are also very varied with a large hall for eating times and shows. Thank you Our Lady's we will miss you!

Perfect all round nursery. The nursery has fantastic outdoor space, a massive draw for me. There is a forest school. Climbing frame, vegetable garden etc. There is a big focus on being outdoors, one of my favourite photos is of the kids outside in a downpour splashing about! Weather permitting they eat outside as well! My 2 have flourished at this nursery, the staff get to know you on a personal level to ensure they can help your children. The inside has lots of different rooms, rather than just one big open space. This is a preference particularly for younger ones it means if one’s napping and another’s woken up they don’t have to wait and be quiet/risk being woken up. Value for money, definitely on the cheaper side of nurseries which is surprising considering how much is included (nappies, wipes, food etc).
