My little boy currently attends the preschool after moving up from the nursery and previously my older son also attended both.
We love puddleduck preschool and so do both our sons! The activities always look fun and creative, he loves attending forest school, music classes, and playball! He is
always happily singing songs at home or in the car that he's learnt at nursery or talking about his friends.
Communication from the staff on the app is always clear, giving a great inside view to what they are learning and focusing on each week with a weekly newsletter.
The staff are engaging and welcoming at pick up and drop off and, my son is always happy to see them and clearly enjoys his action packed days there which I am very grateful for! Thank you!

We are so grateful for the wonderful care our son receives at this nursery. He is following in the footsteps of his two older siblings in attending Puddleducks and from day one, the staff have been warm, supportive, and genuinely dedicated to his wellbeing and development. He has grown in
confidence, independence, and communication skills, and he comes home every day excited to share what he has learned.
The activities are creative, engaging, and thoughtfully planned, helping children learn while having fun. Forest school and playball are a firm favourite of his. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed and reassured. Most importantly, our son is happy, settled, and thriving. Thank you to the entire team for the positive impact you've made on his early years - we couldn't recommend you highly enough. A very special mention to Natalie, Lauren, Sam, Cerys and of course Laiba and not forgetting Lisa, who gets top mark's for her cooking!

From the moment my daughter joined in June last year after leaving a nursery she truly loved, the team made her transition seamless. They helped her settle quickly with warmth, reassurance and genuine care. She absolutely loves going in each day and has so much fun there.
The nursery offers
fantastic enrichment. Their forest school is outstanding! They have engaging extra curricular actives such as sports and music sessions. Her learning at nursery has really supported her confidence and curiosity.
Communication with parents is excellent; I'm regularly updated on her progress and always feel listened to.
What stands out most is how supportive and attentive the staff are. They truly understand her as an individual and take great care to nurture her unique needs. I couldn't be happier with my nursery choice and I highly recommend them.

My daughter who currently attends is our second child to go to Puddleduck Preschool. She can be shy when meeting new people, but she absolutely adores all of the staff and children and can happily be completely herself there. She loves the mixture of outdoor and indoor activities, especially forest
school, messy play and of course play ball. I have witnessed her come on leaps and bounds at Puddleducks, and she literally runs in everyday. This nursery has the perfect balance of learning and playing that has seen both of my daughters flourish. I would highly recommend!

My son has just started at Puddleducks and so far we are so happy with everything. He struggled to settle at his previous nursery so I was worried about changing him but he has settled immediately! He is excited to come each day and even forgets to say bye to me at the door!
The staff are
welcoming, friendly and experienced. They have gone above and beyond to help us with the move and with extra support and information as my son has ADHD and has required more support.
Communication is easy and straightforward and they keep you well informed on what your little one is up to through out the day.
So far, we could not be happier ! Thank you Puddleducks!

Our eldest has been at Puddleducks Preschool in Ascot since he was one year old and will be leaving to start school this September.
He settled in well and really still enjoys his time at Puddleducks. He's made great bonds with the staff and children.
The staff are approachable and really care
about the children. They were supportive with the adjustment of a new sibling.
It's great to see photos and updates of the range of fun and educational nursery activities shared on the app. The forest school in particular is a wonderful place for the children to explore, learn and enjoy nature.
The recent change of ownership has rejuvenated the nursery, especially the toys and equipment in the rooms.
Now our 1 year old daughter has just started at Puddleducks too. We're in the process of settling her and the staff have been very caring and supportive. We hope she'll enjoy it as much as her big brother.

This setting is just wonderful in every sense. The staff who work there are professional, truly kind and caring. The activities, the forest, the outdoor area, the little family events, just everything is more than we could have ever wished for. Our little boy loves going to preschool. We are so
grateful to have found such a lovely setting and know he comes away each time having had a wonderful day.
24 February 2025
My child feels safe and happy attending Puddleduck Preschool. The staff are excellent at keeping my husband and I updated with what they are doing throughout the day.
Forest school is a fantastic asset of the nursery as the children have access to exploring nature, campfires and a mud kitchen.
24 February 2025
I couldn't recommend this nursery more. The staff make it a fun, educational and, most importantly, safe place for all the children. My daughter absolutely loves going, which makes it a lot easier to drop her off in the morning.
24 February 2025
I cannot recommend Puddleduck Preschool in Ascot highly enough! Both of my children attend, with one in the baby room and one in the older room. My daughter has been going since she was 10 months old and will soon be heading off to big school! She has already told me she doesn't want to go and leave
her friends and teachers! Puddleducks have made such an impact on her in so many ways; she's full of confidence, she's polite, she's helpful, her literacy and mathematics skills have developed, her physical capability has developed thanks to extra opportunities like playball and she absolutely loves forest school. I cannot speak highly enough about all of the teachers, they are the most accommodating, friendly, warm group of people. The food is nutritious and varied and the activities are endless, with plenty for the children to do during the day, in a stunning environment. Both children are thriving at Puddleducks and I could not be happier with my choice of nursery for them. Thank you Puddleduck!

My daughter absolutely loves coming to Puddleducks Preschool, and it has done her a world of good for her social and personal development.
The management team and the team have created such a stimulating, fun and constructive environment for my child to develop, learn, make new friends and get
prepared for the world of school.
We get regular updates on how she's interacting with others and progressing in her key skills - with personalised updates for new activities that she's been trying to help with literacy, numeracy and problem solving.
She talks about preschool, her keyworkers and the friends that she's made constantly at home to anyone who will listen, and can't wait until she's next there! We will definitely be sending our son when he is ready to attend too.

The manager and her team have done a fantastic job transforming the setting in recent months. The Oak Room provides a fun, stimulating and nurturing environment for our daughter which will prepare her brilliantly for school.
24 February 2025
My child has attended Puddleducks Preschool for a number of years. She really enjoys the different activities this nursery offers and forest school has been a huge part of this. She has formed close bonds with many of the staff and children. The nursery are fantastic at helping children get ready
for the transition to school. It's a wonderful setting and an nurturing environment.
20 February 2025
My child settled in from the very first day because the staff are so caring and kind and the activities are always engaging and fun. The chef also goes out of her way to make meals healthy and nutritious and cater to any child's needs. I really can't recommend Puddleduck Preschool enough! The icing
on the cake is the forest school which my child enjoys - especially toasting marshmallows on the open fire!
20 February 2025
Excellent nursery - staff are wonderful and very informative. Our son loves the activities they put on for him, especially the forest school. Our son loves going to nursery and I think that speaks a thousand words!
20 February 2025
My son has attended Puddleduck Preschool for 2 years now and my older son also attended from 1, all the way up until he went to school. We are very happy with the nursery and cannot recommend them enough especially the staff who have such a lovely relationship with all the children.

My son has been attending Puddleducks since August and has come on a long way since then. They've helped his confidence grow and all members of have staff have formed a bond with him. They do one-on-one time with him to help his speech improve and they give daily updates/ photos on an app which is
nice to see when I'm working. The outdoor space is incredible. I have nothing but positive things to say about the preschool. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
05 September 2024
My son has created some amazing bonds with the teachers and made lots of friends. The teachers have always welcomed us with smiles and warmth at drop off and pick up and even after a long day working they still have happy energy handing over what they had been up to through the day.
I always feel
confident and happy that he is in safe hands. The manager and/or deputy is always around if you need any questions answered and always with a happy kind persona. The new owners have given the nursery a new lease of life with new exciting furniture to help the little ones with their imagination.
I am very sad that my son will be leaving such a happy safe environment but it is time for primary school. My son's last day at preschool is going to be emotional.
05 July 2024
Puddleduck has been a home-from-home experience for my daughter. I will be very sad when she leaves in the coming months for school. In the words of my daughter who says, "I don't want to grow up and go to big school, I want to stay at Puddleduck with my friends and teachers!" All the staff have
been incredible with her, they are all so caring, attentive and have been a huge part of her development and learning. The makeover of the nursery recently is wonderful, the forest school is so lovely and the outdoor area and the learning opportunities that Puddleduck have created have been unforgettable. A big thank you to the staff who have played a huge part in my daughter's happiness at Puddleduck!
