August 27, 2020 at 12:00 amI have felt so lucky that my son has been able to attend this nursery.
The staff at Hillside House Hook-A-Gate have been amazing with all the different things they teach the children and the activities they arrange.
The food is lovely and the handovers are detailed.
The actual building is lovely and clean.
The staff are so happy and I’ve never been worried about anything while he has been in their care.
Each year we have had a beautiful booklet with Art, photos and observations and I can look back at his time there knowing we made the best choice.

November 3, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended Hillside House since she was 1 years old and has had the most fantastic time. Wonderful teachers and environment to play and learn. The outside play area is great too. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough!

November 3, 2020 at 12:00 amThe Hillside family have cared for and guided my two children from the age 1 to preschool age. Prepared them so well for their school journey. A happy and wonderful team, who all work so hard and put their children first. My children have been very happy at Nursery and I highly recommend it.

November 3, 2020 at 12:00 amMy little boy thoroughly enjoys going to Hillside House, Hook-A-Gate Nursery. The staff are warm, welcoming and offer a very high standard of care. The food available is healthy, homemade and freshly cooked on site. There are often other activities (Crafty Kitchen, Football etc) available too which is a great added extra! My little boy’s beaming smile when we drop him off proves that he feels safe and content whilst in their care.

November 12, 2020 at 12:00 amWhat a wonderful place Hillside is! Our daughter is now in her 3rd year at the nursery and has had such an amazing experience. The staff are all so warm and friendly, and the building itself is just lovely – very homely feeling and always immaculately clean. We viewed other nurseries prior to this, and none of them even came close to the high standards of Hillside House, so much so that we have already reserved a place for our 2nd daughter to start in September 2021. We feel that Hillside has given our daughter the best start in her educational years, and are confident that with their input she will be more than prepared for starting Primary School next year. This review comes with our highest recommendations and urges any new parents that are looking to enrol their child into the nursery to certainly view Hillside House, Hook-a-Gate, you will not be disappointed!

November 5, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter started at 8-months-old, and the staff have cared for and nurtured her development throughout. I can’t recommend Hillside House Nursery enough. Also compared with the feedback I’ve had from friends about other nurseries. I can only say good things about Hillside. The setting, staff, food, teaching has all been above and beyond.

November 5, 2021 at 12:00 amHillside House Nursery has welcomed our child with open arms into the setting and ensures he is well cared for and enjoys his time there.
As parents, we were very anxious about how he would settle due to Covid, but we were greeted with smiles and felt welcomed from the second we walked in. Our little boy loves nursery and is always spending his time in the creative or messy area. We have detailed handovers about how he gets on throughout the day, which puts us at ease knowing he is enjoying nursery.

September 6, 2022 at 12:00 amIncredible nursery, such caring and nurturing staff and a wonderful environment for children to develop, learn and grow. So much thought goes into the planning of the day and my children love going. My children loved the food and it was well balanced and full of nutrition. Can’t recommend this nursery enough.

November 3, 2022 at 12:00 amI cannot rate Hillside House Nursery highly enough – the staff were kind, cheerful and interested in teaching. Their professionalism was next to none. My daughter felt at home straight away, she was encouraged to be herself and grew daily in confidence.
She started school just turned 4 which made us very nervous, but Hillside staff set her up so well that she is thriving.
I could not praise this nursery any more highly.

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amWe have been happy customers of Hillside House Nursery for the past 7 years. Both of my children have had a wonderful experience here. The staff have all been truly amazing over the years; they are caring, professional, enthusiastic and work so very hard to make the children’s nursery days some of the happiest. They encourage the children to thrive and nurture all of their little individual personalities. I’m sure they have actual magical powers! With only a few months left until my youngest moves on to school, we feel very grateful for the care, love and education Hillside has given to our children. Thank you so very much!
