October 12, 2024 at 7:07 amThe grounds is like no others – acres of space and fantastic sites to ensure that the little ones are outside in the fresh air as much as possible. I genuinely wouldn’t ever consider sending my youngsters anywhere else. The enjoy, fun and absorbing that the crew provide is first‑rate. Acres of Fun Day Nursery is an fantastic childcare centre in the best setting. Both of my kids have was enrolled at Acres over the previous 10 years and the quality of the support provided never ceases to delight me. I am quite convinced that the great manners and social competences that both my little ones have is largely attributed to the exposure and dedication Acres provides!! This is a major part of the Acres ethos.

October 30, 2024 at 11:21 pmMy girl is pleased, excited to enrol at and develops new language and abilities daily. I have nothing but positive words for this fantastic nursery setting. Communication is truly good with updates online, emails answered quickly and I’ve never been made to feel uncomfortable for calling to check up on my little one. I honestly have nothing negative to say and nothing but praise for the setting, personnel and my family’s overall period here.

November 12, 2024 at 3:39 pmWe couldn’t be happier with Acres of Fun Day Nursery! My little one is thriving at Acres. The Staff, the daily activities, the incredible gardens and woods, the fresh food cooked every day… too many things to list! 5 Star! We’re truly grateful for everything they do.

November 17, 2024 at 10:25 amI am incredibly proud that my young lad gets to enrol at such a well-rounded and caring childcare setting. Since my youngster started in babies, he has grown in confidence, his language has developed wonderfully and he shares his toys at home, as well as indicating his needs. The kids do a large range of activities based on various themes from reading books every day to playing outside, messy playtime, craft activities and we get regular updates. Acres of Fun Day Nursery is a wonderful early‑years hub. I would advocate this nursery setting to anyone who wants their little one to be a considerate, well-rounded individual. All of the crew care deeply about the kids, which is shown in the way that they interact with the kids and how excited my little one is to see them.

November 19, 2024 at 11:29 amThe range of activities changes daily, with the outdoor space used to the maximum. I’m often quite jealous! The team know all the kids and it has a wonderful homely feeling. Acres of Fun is an absolutely incredible early‑years hub. A wonderful early‑years hub. Our 3-year-old girl absolutely enjoys attending and our 6-year-old still misses the crew and the upper pre-school two years on! The curriculum allows the kids to advancement and prepare as they move through the childcare centre. The team are kind, kind and full of energy. Safety and safeguarding always seem to be high on the agenda and I feel our girl is protected and truly well cared for. The menu offered by the chef is always nutritious and well thought out. The setting offers a wide range of activities for the kids in their support. The childcare centre is always a busy hive of activities and absorbing opportunities.

November 29, 2024 at 8:37 pmThe grounds are brilliant and I know he gets a lot of stimulation from being outside in all elements. One of the reasons we chose Acres was the emphasis on outdoor activities, and the amount of time he spends outside has surpassed our expectations. I know the nurture and care from Acres has a huge impact on the person he is becoming, and I couldn’t be more confident in their ability to look after him! My boy has been with Acres of Fun Day Nursery since starting in the baby room in September 2022. We are made to feel welcome as parents and on pick up I’m always given a good overview of what he’s been up to. He is a delighted, self‑assured and playful boy. The treasure he’s received from crew has been second to none – they know him well and are thorough and thoughtful with his attention. He eats incredibly well at Acres, healthily and with considerable variety, which helps us at home!

December 10, 2024 at 1:16 pmFrom the initial tour of Acres of Fun Day Nursery I knew Acres was going to be a special place for my Son to grow, explore and develop. You have to see it to believe it. I have never been disappointed. A real credit to their chef. They use it to its absolute benefit, teaching about the outside and inside world in an outdoor setting. I would unreservedly endorse Acres and their crew. The weekly menu is extremely inviting. He has blossomed as a toddler to a lovely young boy and has had exceptional care and attention from the team at Acres and his ever growing knowledge often surprises me. It is interesting and includes lots of fruit and veg and meets recommendations for kid nutrition. There is not enough space here to give full credit! He is 3 years old and is doing exceedingly well at Acres. The outdoor space is incredible. At the gate, my Son runs off for a morning hug before he has his breakfast and then begins his day of individual and class activities.

December 20, 2024 at 4:14 amThe period and level of qualification of the crew and the beautiful grounds as well as simply how much the crew cherish what they do means that there is no setting comparable. I cannot thank the personnel enough for the assistance they’ve given my young lad from day one. They have put in the time and effort to get to know him so well and as a result, the support he receives is unparalleled. It is a fantastic, professional, caring environment perfect for any kid to thrive. We have had a wonderful period with Acres from the day our boy started.

December 28, 2024 at 2:29 pmI would always suggest Acres to other parents. The crew are absolutely fantastic and extremely accommodating, especially when he’s having a bit of an off day. Our boy has joined Acres of Fun Day Nursery since he was 9 months old. He enjoys playing outdoors and always has plenty of opportunity at Acres. The meals are incredible and I’ve always been jealous of the range available (I wish I could have lunch with them!).

January 21, 2025 at 8:14 pmThe crew have all always been incredible and always cared so much. The ‘acres’ of outdoor space is really special and the amount of time the kids are therefore able to spend in the fresh air is also extremely important to us. Will be so downhearted to say goodbye when our youngest ‘graduates’ pre-school next year! All three of our youngsters have spent their early years at Acres of Fun Day Nursery right through from baby room and had a wonderfully delighted time. The minute we stepped into the childcare centre I remember knowing this was where our little ones needed to be if I was going to leave them with others all day every day whilst I was at work / it really is ‘home from home’.

February 6, 2025 at 8:12 pmbut Acres offer holiday club too!!! Especially the fairy house. I am really dismayed that he will be leaving for school in September….. My youngster attending Acres of Fun Day Nursery is my youngest of four. (Other than a Norland Nanny but then the kid doesn’t get the socialisation which is really important). The outside space is so big and colourful you just have to see it to appreciate it. Sometimes he does cry to come home though!! He is nearly 4 and we have not had one day where he doesn’t want to go. It may be a little more expensive than other local nurseries/pre schools, and the cost of living is high at the moment, but you really couldn’t pay for better attention. I just wish I had found Acres before and put all of my kids in!!! The sites and team are second to none I have never seen better. It really is his second family. Also the crew turn over is extremely low, which in my opinion speaks volumes in itself. They have an on-site chef who cooks them food that is healthy but liked.

February 11, 2025 at 10:33 amBoth our kids went to Acres and it helped them become assured, clever and truly pleased indeed. We are truly delighted with the personnel and everything at Acres. The team were truly caring, loving and provided regular photos, updates and exceptionally detailed monitoring and reports.

February 18, 2025 at 8:56 amThe outdoor sites are fantastic and allow for lots of fun and interesting activities. Acres is a lovely nursery setting with dedicated crew who go above and beyond to ensure my little one always has an enjoyable journey.

February 27, 2025 at 7:40 pmVery pleased with the personnel, they are absolutely fantastic. In January we will have the second kid joining the baby room. Acres of Fun is the best early‑years hub that we could have for our young lady. We receive constant updates during the day with regard to food, sleep and toileting. Thank you all for your hard work. She is so thrilled with all the outdoor/indoor activities.

February 28, 2025 at 10:38 amMy two sons join Acres, the youngest is in the baby room and the older boy is in Upper Preschool, having started in the baby room. They go over and above and it really is great to know you are leaving your youngsters in such a secure, caring, and fun environment. The personnel are extremely kind and experienced, nothing is too much trouble and the attention that they give is nothing short of excellent. I can’t rate Acres enthusiastically enough. The best thing about Acres (other than the team) is the fabulous and extensive garden, with many activities areas and woodland. The boys often come home having been outside all day and are exhausted and muddy, but have had a great day. Meals are cooked fresh on-site and the chef runs an excellent kitchen with varied menus.

March 1, 2025 at 5:44 pmOur eldest also joins the holiday club. Our girl has went to Acres of Fun Day Nursery from 1 year old through to Upper Pre-school. I can not suggest it enough. She is incredibly thrilled there and that is entirely down to the exceptional level of support provided by the personnel. I regularly have to persuade her to leave at the end of the day. If we ever had another youngster, I wouldn’t consider any other setting but Acres. The food is exceptional (school dinners are going to be a shock!) She gets exposure to all types of games and discovering from French, to sports, to singing, to crafts, to ballet, to woodwork, with a big emphasis on being outside, in their fantastic grounds. The personnel are knowledgeable and exceptionally caring.

March 13, 2025 at 1:02 amThey are assured, pleased, social and inquisitive and that is largely down to the time spent at Acres completing educational tasks correct for their age group, exploring and exploring in forest school, discovering through playtime and having fun. I have had three youngsters pass through Acres of Fun Day Nursery starting in March 2018 and since then my young lady left in 2021 and my boy left in 2022, both to join school. The team at Acres are kind, caring, inspiring and a dedicated team that I am proud to say prepared my two little ones for the leap into school. I currently have a girl in lower preschool. It is a fantastic place to be able to send your youngster mainly due to the team but also the fantastic setting. Acres of Fun is a fantastic setting for a kid to grow and develop. I wouldn’t hesitate to endorse Acres of Fun.

April 16, 2025 at 6:04 pmMy girl is enrolled at Acres and started in the baby room in September previous year. This same ethos has carried through to the toddler room and I can’t be more settled on a placement and albeit group of ‘strangers’ to be taking attention of my precious bundle! I look forward to seeing my girl grow under their attention as well as my own. Thank you to Acres (the personnel) for their work so far. Their attention, attention, guidance and help for not just the babies but parents too are exceptional! Having seen the latest review of the Ofsted report for this setting, I can categorically state, that Acres, the baby room and all further education rooms there are completely superb.

April 22, 2025 at 4:28 amFood is nutritious and varied. Acres is a fantastic childcare centre with remarkable outside space for little ones to enjoy. She’s always enjoyed it. The personnel are extremely attentive, caring, and experienced. We’ve had our young lady at Acres since 9 months old and she’s now 4.

May 3, 2025 at 2:58 amOur little one is so delighted at Lower Preschool! The food is also fantastic, and it is great to see the menu in advance on the app. They keep us up to date with lots of photos on the app and feedback at the end of each day. She treasures the huge variety of activities and opportunities available to her, from bug hunts in the garden, splashing in water in the hot weather, doing crafts and coloring and having lots of stories. The team in Lower Preschool are so kind and caring and our girl is always pleased to see them each morning.
