September 20, 2017 at 12:00 amBoth of my children (aged 2 and 4) have been at Hickory House for the last 18 months and we are extremely pleased with everything about it. The staff are all great and take a real interest in all of the children. There is a great range of facilities including soft play, a sensory room and an indoor climbing frame room meaning that even when the weather is poor the children can get a change of environment and exercise.
Both of my children are extremely happy there, have made good friends and have very well supported at all times.

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter started at Ryan House Day Nursery in June 2020 when she turned one and has had a wonderful 3 years. The staff are exceptional and the relationships they have with the children are very special. The level of thought, time and creativity that goes into the learning opportunities is fantastic. She always comes out of nursery happy and excited to talk about her day. All the staff, but particularly the room leaders and the new manager are friendly, professional and approachable.

March 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves going there. Staff are brilliant and provide regular feedback about her development. There is a range of activities available for her. Have been good with ongoing toilet training though she has had some accidents at nursery.

March 21, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth our children attend Ryan House and love attending. Our oldest child even asks to go on weekends! We love that there are lots of different activities for the kids to do, including taking them out for visits and getting people to come into the nursery to do talks.

March 21, 2023 at 12:00 amOur child simply loves the nursery. He has a great relationship with the staff, they are extremely professional, super thoughtful, and as a parent we are so thankful for their hard work. We appreciate what they do on a daily basis. The kids get tons of sensory play, time outside, they create art and we especially like all the fun activities around public holidays and other festivities. We do get a monthly feedback call on how our child develops and to ask questions which is another great service. Can’t stress enough how much peace of mind it brings to parents knowing our child is in good hands and is actually having the best time, learning new things. The only negative point I want to mention is the outside area which could be a little bit less messy and look more inviting, but I truly believe the kids don’t care about this at all. We’d highly recommend Ryan House Day Nursery.

March 23, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little boy loves coming to nursery and is learning each day, the staff are great.
Would like to receive more information as to how well he’s doing and more pictures these seem to be very minimal at the moment.
Update his daily diary more often and quicker and not always stated how many nappy changes he ate etc.
Ensure the children’s noses are wiped more especially during the cold season when I’ve been to collect him tends to have a snotty nose.

March 23, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been at this nursery for over a year. He’s making great progress thanks to the excellent staff and management. As a child born during covid, he was in a shell to begin with but is now much more friendly to strangers. He comes home happy every day he’s at nursery. The staff communicate in an efficient manner. The app to keep in touch is excellent. Management are easy to get hold of.

April 12, 2023 at 12:00 amVery caring staff with low turnover. Good photo updates to keep you updated on what your child is doing when at nursery. Really wide range of activities indoors and outdoors. Children are encouraged to learn adult skills safely and with good supervision. Good sickness policies.

April 12, 2023 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been attending Ryan House Day Nursery for 8 months now and absolutely loves it. We get regular updates via the app as well as a monthly phone call from our key worker. All of the staff that we have met have always been very welcoming and friendly and are very passionate about their jobs and encourage development.

April 13, 2023 at 12:00 amGreat nursery with a lovely team and large spaces for the children. My daughter has enjoyed her time there and she seems happy and secure. She has attended since she was a baby. I would totally recommend!

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amOur daughter has attended another nursery pre Ryan’s House but the change in her is massive. She waves goodbye and is happy to arrive at Ryan’s House. She sometimes looks disappointed when I come to collect her!
Whilst her key person has changed a few times, the same staff are there which is usually a good sign. Our daughter has developed into a social and confident child with the help of the staff in the Tigers room.

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amWe are so pleased that we chose Ryan House Day Nursery for our three children. It has been amazing. The staff go above and beyond to make sure they know every child and to personalise activities and learning for them. Having a disabled daughter, it was really important that we found a nursery that understood her needs and supported her with her development. The staff have embraced the physio and speech and language programme which they do religiously and our daughter has come on leaps and bounds as a result. This is all down to the time and effort all the staff put in. We are extremely grateful to all the staff but particularly two members of staff for helping our daughter.
Our younger twins are also doing really well at the nursery. They love attending and the staff seem to know their interests really well.
Overall, an exceptional nursery that I would recommend highly.

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amMy child attends nursery just two afternoons a week and despite him not being there that often, the staff are invested in getting to know him and his interests in order to get the most out of his sessions. The pictures and videos we receive of him really look like he’s enjoying the surroundings, staff and other children which is so important. They always ensure the children are outside as much as possible as well as empowering them to go off on the climbing facilities, doing crafts, stories, songs etc. My child always comes home singing a new song he’s picked up at nursery! We’re so glad he attends Ryan House and would definitely recommend.

April 26, 2023 at 12:00 amMy children are currently at Ryan House Day nursery. It is a fantastic nursery, great staff and management and brilliant facilities (climbing room, big field to play on, ‘forest School’ and trips out). Since attending Ryan House my children have developed so much. There are lots of activities and learning to get the children ready for school. My older, disabled child attended Ryan House and he came along so much due to the dedication and care of the staff. All of the staff are great with the children. The managers are also informative and do a great job. The feedback provided at pickup is detailed as well as in the app. This is the second nursery I have sent my children to and it is definitely the better one.

May 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy child has attended this facility for a fair few years and in those years has drastically grown in confidence. We picked this nursery for the behaviour of the children, ‘forest school’ and quirky extras it offers. The staff are exceptional, in particular her three favourites who my child adores and talks about. She has made friends for life here. Well done Ryan House.

August 15, 2023 at 12:00 amI cannot recommend Ryan House Day Nursery enough. I am an incredibly anxious, first-time mum and the thought of putting my daughter into the care of strangers was so overwhelming, especially because my daughter has a litany of allergies. But Ryan House was simply incredible from day one. The amazing chef was the best teammate I could have in ensuring my daughter did not incur any allergic reactions whilst eating there. And the care she received from all of the staff was just incredible. She came out every day with a beaming smile, I received daily updates and photos on the app. I wish we didn’t have to leave! If you’re considering Ryan House, I urge you to take a tour and meet the staff and see how happy the children are. You won’t regret it.
