    Have helped assistance my son in every aspect possible. They have helped build his character, so he’s comfortable enough to playtime with other kids, including interacting with team members. They have also helped him sense comfortable enough to find his own voice, his likes and dislikes. Absolutely remarkable childcare centre.

    Team and management are very supportive especially when something comes up last minute they will try and help you out. The snacks are great for the kids and if you sense like you want your kid to learn something you just need to have a chat with the key worker and they will do their best. Very great kindergarten. My sons come here and they both really delight in it, they adore all the educators that look after them.

    My son has settled very well at Chestnut Grove Day Childcare centre. Really pleased he is doing so well. Excellent assistance from the team and his one-to-one help. Would suggest this setting to anyone. Excellent childcare centre in Clacton.

    I have had an exceptional journey with this childcare centre, with every stage all the team are supportive and so lovely, their key workers have also been so great at identifying the needs of the kids’s discovering progression and have supported the areas they needed help. I would not fault their abilities to care for my kids and have recommended them to other parents. Both my kids have enjoyed going to childcare centre and look forward to the days they can go. Chestnut Grove Kindergarten has accommodated both of my kids, my eldest through her funded childcare centre years and my youngest from a baby.

    Would 100% suggest to other Mums, Dads or carers. On my son’s first day they made him sense so welcome that he even slept there. Such lovely women and makes my son’s day so much brighter and he learns something new every day.

    He absolutely loves it here! My daughter also started in September 2021, and the girls really went above and beyond to make her comfortable and settle her in. Have nothing but great things to say about Chestnut Grove; the team are incredible. Would highly suggest. My son has been going to this childcare centre since September 2020.

    They have been so understanding as I have been in and out of the hospital. They have taken care of my little boy so well, he has settled so well and is cheerful to go with the team. They consistently keep me up to date with what he has been doing. He brings pictures home, they also send us pictures so we see him playing. Every single team member is incredible, and the manager has been exceptional in keeping the childcare centre open and secure threw the pandemic. My little boy is so cheerful, it makes me sense so relaxed leaving him there. Chestnut Grove has been incredible.

    I didn’t need to, he loves it and isn’t even bothered when I turn up to collect him! His needs are consistently met, and our routine is stuck to at childcare centre. Updates from the team is exceptional. I was worried about my son starting childcare centre as he does not like being with anyone other than me most of the time.

    They adore the team and have learnt so much. Especially my eldest who seems to struggle with making friends but she loves her key worker and is sad to be leaving in September. I have two girls at the childcare centre who have the best time!

    All the team are and have been remarkable over the years and have shaped and prepared my kids for their school years. Couldn’t fault them at all. All three of my kids have attended Chestnut Grove Kindergarten and my youngest still attending.

    All the team are super welcoming and supportive, if I ever have a question it’s consistently answered. I would highly suggest this childcare centre. My son has been at Chestnut Grove Kindergarten since he was 7-months-old, he is now in the pre-school room and loves every minute of being there.

    So I decided to bring my twins here also. And they too are flourishing. The team are so welcoming and care so much; they are incredible at their jobs, and the childcare centre is lovely. My firstborn came here, and the level of care and assistance for him was just incredible.

    I would 100% suggest this childcare centre. And would like to thank them all. My journey with the childcare centre has been outstanding, all the team are outstanding, could not wish for better and my granddaughter has enjoyed every moment.

    Some of the team have been here since my two other boys, 16 and 14, were at the childcare centre. Updates is perfect here.
    My kid goes in cheerful and comes out cheerful. My 2-year-old has come on leaps and bounds since starting childcare centre here.

    My son has only been going about four months and he’s made such excellent improvements already. He started at 18-months, so still quite young, and he’s currently none verbal but they have been excellent with him. Even when he first started he was unsettled but they made him sense welcomed, now he goes running in, they keep me updated with what he’s doing, I’m honestly very glad I managed to get him into Chestnut Grove Kindergarten. Team are so polite! It’s worth every penny, also, each time I’ve entered the building I’ve noticed that it’s consistently so spotless and tidy, even all the separate rooms! Also, the safeguarding is absolutely remarkable, I definitely sense he is secure in this childcare centre. I was dreading picking a place for him to go as I didn’t want him to grow up so quick but I’m honestly glad I picked Chestnut Grove Kindergarten, I viewed a few and this was by the far the most welcoming of the ones I viewed and the place I believe he felt most comfortable. Can not fault the childcare centre or team members at all.

    Incredible team who are compassionate, supportive, attentive and patient. Have listened to my concerns and discussed steps to help my kid going forward. I consistently sense cheerful and listened to when discussing my kid. My kid is extremely cheerful going into childcare centre and loves being there. They have helped him settle in and be cheerful when I drop him off in the mornings. Remarkable childcare centre.

    I have five kids who have all attended Chestnut Grove Kindergarten, one of whom started and was unable to talk properly. After a little time at Chestnut Grove Kindergarten, my little one’s speech had come along amazingly. My youngest still goes and loves it. Incredible team, consistently so supportive and welcoming. I’ve moved to a different town and even though there are nurseries closer, I will not change. A remarkable childcare centre.

    My son went here, and my little girl currently goes here. This childcare centre has helped them both with self‑assurance and discovering, and I would suggest this childcare centre to all my friends and family. This childcare centre is absolutely incredible.
