    I have two daughters aged 3 and 1 at Fern Bank. Both girls love nursery and are excited to go every day. The staff at Fern Bank are brilliant, I could not ask for a better team to look after my girls. The nursery itself it’s very welcoming, clean and has a very friendly atmosphere. I would highly recommend Fern Bank to anyone looking for a nursery for their little one.

    My daughter started at Fern Bank after moving from another nursery, the staff at Fern Bank made her transition smooth and enjoyable for both my daughter and myself.

    The children’s likes and dislikes are taken into consideration for all activities incorporated into the nursery setting and as a parent, I am frequently asked to update any new interests my daughter has for them to involve them during her day.

    My daughter couldn’t be happier at Fern Bank, the staff are absolutely lovely and I couldn’t recommend them enough!

    I really can’t fault this nursery on any level. Our son is happy and settled at Fern Bank, and it’s obvious that he enjoys himself every day at the nursery. The staff are friendly, helpful, approachable and really do try their best to make the children happy and contented. They arrange days out for the children on picnics, walks in the woods etc, really good fun for the children. Overall an excellent choice – and a nursery that I would highly recommend.

    Fantastic pre-school and fantastic staff too, any issues or concerns I’ve had regarding my daughter (big or small) the staff are available to help/chat and resolve any concerns. My little girls’ key worker is amazing and is clearly dedicated to her role, always making sure all is well. ‘Happy child, happy mum.’

    Absolutely amazing nursery! My son is so happy going to nursery, the updates we get are great and the staff are lovely and I’ve not one bad word to say! So happy I chose Fern Bank for my son, the best nursery in the area.

    My daughter’s nursery is excellent. The staff treat the children like they would their own. My daughter lights up when she sees almost every member of staff in the mornings. The nursery is flexible and amenable to changes in your own life that mean more/less days are needed at short notice. My daughter loves the food and the activities. She is always happy when she gets into nursery and is always having fun when I arrive – which I can see from the window when I arrive. There is a decent amount of outdoor space – they work with what they have. Their opening hours are also helpful to working parents. Overall, I couldn’t recommend them enough and was so happy we made the choice we did.

    Fern Bank is a lovely nursery. All of the staff are very friendly, my son loves it here he just runs straight in every morning no hesitating and comes out smiling every time I pick him up. Because of Fern Bank, he is growing into a very confident, happy little boy.

    My three babies have been at Fern Bank Day Nursery now since September, the youngest being four months at the time. My three and two year old were there previously as I attended college across the road and have loved it.
    Staff go above and beyond to make sure children feel safe and happy and the manager does an amazing job too, very easy to approach if needed. Highly recommended.

    My son truly gets excited when we pull up at the nursery, you can tell the special bond he has with all of the teachers, especially one member of staff in particular is just so natural.
    The fact my son is happily going to nursery really puts me at ease and I know he is taken care of.
    My son has progressed a lot recently and the space you have and the time you give him to let him explore really is helping to build his skills and confidence which adds to his happy self.
    Thank you to all of you for being there for my son and building the special bonds with him, that all parents could wish for.

    I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough, they have been absolutely brilliant with my son. He started in September 2022 and has just finished. He was really shy and very upset at the start but the staff at Fern Bank Private Day Nursery and Pre-school helped him so much to become himself and he loved it. The staff were just brilliant, couldn’t say anything bad about this nursery.
    My twins are going to be attending this nursery next year and I am 100% happy that they will love it.

    My little boy has been there since 1 year old and is loving every minute of being there. He is now just over 2 and moved into the toddler class. He has developed and flourished so beautifully with thanks to the wonderful staff. As a parent, it’s always hard to leave your child with anyone, especially in the care of a stranger. I have felt nothing but trust, respect and love from every member of staff at the nursery. Management is really good and she’s very compassionate, caring and supportive. Honestly, it’s an amazing nursery!

    Fern Bank Private Day Nursery and Pre-school is a brilliant nursery. The staff have remained consistent over the past three years which is great and they are all warm, welcoming and really care. My daughter loves all of her ‘teachers’ and is keen to get back to nursery after the weekend as she has missed everyone! She started at just 9 months old and settled in quickly and we were certain that she was safe and happy. She has developed so much thanks to all of the opportunities she is provided with by the Fern Bank team.
