    Our daughter thoroughly enjoys her time at nursery and we love seeing updates on her learning journal throughout the day. I would 100% recommend this nursery to other parents.

    We moved our daughter from her previous setting as I just wasn’t happy with the structure in place for ‘learning and development’. Choosing Abbots Hill Day Nursery was by far the best decision we made. Our girl, who has been in stepping up for almost a year, has come leaps and bounds and the staff are always welcoming and always smiling. We were ecstatic when a space became available for our son to join footsteps and at drop off he walks in and goes about his nursery day as if it’s his second home so I know he is happy there. The nursery management are also a fantastic team and again always available to help with any questions/ advice needed. Being able to see how my children spend their day and how they are developing according to the EYFS via the online app is also a huge plus and allows us to focus on specific areas at home. I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

    My daughter loves this nursery. I’m so glad we got space for her as it was fully booked when we moved into the area. She enjoys playing with her little friends and enjoys the ballet and music classes. The garden is beautifully looked after and safe to play there.

    We are absolutely thrilled with how well our daughter has settled in to Abbot’s Hill Nursery. The staff are all wonderful and always happy to see her, the nursery itself is always spotless and we only ever get smiles from our daughter when dropping her off. We love receiving updates on her progress and are so pleased with how far she has come along since she started. The communication with parents is great and we are encouraged to tell the staff what she has been doing at the weekends so they can talk to her about her experiences and practice any new achievements when going back on Monday. The meals provided by the lovely cook are always nutritious and healthy, security is good and the staff clearly enjoy their roles. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend every aspect of Abbot’s Hill Nursery!

    I could not recommend this nursery highly enough. They provide excellent care for my daughter. They have helped so much with her development and suggest activities we can do at home. I drop her each morning knowing she is going to have a fun-filled day in a safe caring environment.

    I am the grandfather of a child at this nursery and deliver and collect him on a regular basis.
    I have always found the staff extremely professional, highly customer focused and willing to offer help and advice. They are all to a person constantly thinking and working for the best interests of the children in their care.
    I particularly like and appreciate the time they set aside at collection time to discuss with each parent/relative face to face the activities, mood, eating behaviour and support offered that day or session. This is further supported and supplied with a hand over sheet.
    I can honestly say that every member of staff and management I have met or spoken to are highly professional in their approach to child care.
    The site itself is, without doubt, the best-equipped nursery I have come across.
    I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

    This nursery maintains an excellent level of child care, offers a nutritious and varied menu, encourages as much outdoor play as possible and really celebrates different events and cultures across the board. The staff are always friendly and genuinely care. My son has been going to this nursery since the age of 6 months and he is now just a little over 2 and I have never had any issues. The parents evenings are informative and really give the parents a chance to discuss progress, and the updates on the app as well as the pictures make parents feel they are missing less of those special moments and have regular updates of how their child is progressing.

    This is a wonderful nursery and we couldn’t recommend it more highly. Our daughter has thrived in this caring and nurturing environment. The staff are so friendly and kind, always have time and work collaboratively with us as parents.
    Not once has our daughter not wanted to go to nursery and she speaks so excitedly about her day when we pick her up.
    Our other daughter starts at the end of the year and we can’t wait to see her enjoy everything her sister has so far. Well done to everyone at Abbot’s for making this such a wonderful little community.

    We love this nursery, my daughter is in Stepping Up now and we will be so so sad to leave the nursery. She has loved her time here and we couldn’t be happier. All the staff are professional, caring and you can tell they really enjoy working with the children. We can’t recommend Abbot’s Hill Nursery enough.

    My daughter has been attending the nursery since January this year and we couldn’t be happier with every area within the nursery and the care provided.

    This is an outstanding nursery. The staff, at all levels, are kind, helpful and put the welfare and happiness of the child ahead of all.
    My daughter has some additional movement needs, which the staff are always considerate of, building her confidence and offering in-depth and careful feedback to me. This has been incredibly helpful and made home/school consistency incredibly easy.
    The facilities are outstanding and staff are always making improvements to ensure the best possible experience and outcomes for each child. My daughter is excited to go to nursery in the morning. I would highly highly recommend Abbots Hill to any parent.

    I couldn’t be happier with Abbott’s Hill nursery. All the staff are friendly, professional and experts in their field, dedicated to the children’s welfare and development. My little boy is so happy at the nursery and always excited to go. We are very lucky to have a nursery of this quality.

    My son recently joined the nursery. We were so pleased with the level of care my daughter received when she attended 2016 – 2020, so we were really happy that we managed to secure a place for my son. He has settled in so well and runs into nursery smiling and laughing. It really does have a ‘family’ feel. The range of facilities is superb and he enjoys all of the activities the staff work so hard to offer. His walking, speech and eating have all come on ‘leaps and bounds’ since starting in September.

    Standard of care and compassion exemplary. All activities, standard of teaching and professionalism excellent. Very happy with my child’s welfare and development and would thoroughly recommend the Nursery. Members of staff genuinely care and are diligent and efficient in everything they do. The way the nursery and all staff have worked and handled Covid lockdown conditions selflessly is beyond excellent! Well done and thank you to all.

    We have been very pleased with the level of care and attention to detail our child is receiving. At the start, our daughter took some time to settle in and the staff were excellent in making her feel happy and comfortable as well as regularly updating me. Now she can’t stop talking about nursery, her friends and teachers. She is really excited to see everyone each morning! We have seen fantastic progress in all aspects educational, developmental and personal with our daughter and hope to send our son too this year!

    The staff at Abbot’s Hill Nursery are very professional and caring towards all the children. They always offer a range of activities for the children each day and I’m continually pleased with how attentive they are to the children. I’m so pleased my son attends Abbot’s Hill nursery as he’s always super happy! I’ve been particularly impressed with how well the nursery has dealt with the pandemic this last year, constantly reviewing policy and adapting where needed but always putting the safety of children and parents first!

    We are so pleased that we found Abbot’s. Our daughter loves attending and we really enjoy hearing updates about her day and looking at pictures of her engaging in different activities and happily interacting with the staff. Communication from the nursery has always been excellent. Settling in was a bit different for us due to lockdown but nursery staff really made the effort to get to know our daughter and she settled in really quickly which is a credit to the staff and their nurturing yet personalised approach. Thank you for all that you do!

    Our son has attended Abbot’s Hill nursery since he was a year old. Our experience of the nursery has been superb and our son has thrived, both physically and emotionally, in the nurturing and stimulating environment created by the staff. We were particularly impressed at the way in which the nursery has responded to the challenges caused by the pandemic and have been reassured throughout by the precautions taken to keep everyone healthy. I would not hesitate in recommending the nursery to others or sending other children there.

    My son has been attending Abbots Hill Nursery since he was 9 months old. Two years on it is like a second home to him. Never did I imagine we’d have to weather a pandemic together. The management and staff at the nursery have been amazing throughout and have adapted so well. Communication throughout the pandemic has been excellent and the safety but also the emotional well-being of the children has been a priority. The pandemic aside, the nursery provides an amazing inclusive environment for children to develop and thrive.

    My daughter joined Abbot’s Hill nursery a few months ago after we moved to the area and comes home so happy, talking about her fun day. The staff are superb, they have got to know our daughter so quickly, their communication is great – they will call about any concerns, email response is very speedy, and they give a nice update at the end of the day. Our daughter speaks so fondly of her key worker (our extended family even know about her). The staff have picked up on development areas well, and that one on one advice and attention is impressive when they are managing many children. I cannot recommend Abbot’s Hill nursery enough, the play activities are varied and the children go for walks in the impressive grounds. The picture updates during the week are so wonderful.
