Ash Park Childcare

My daughter is thriving there and, at only 17 months old, is discovering more and more every day. Each and every team members are honest, trustworthy, and compassionate, leaving my anxious mind to rest and focus on work. Even though Ash Park is a relatively new service, there are years of journey behind the team and we adore to see Ash Park grow alongside our little one. Highly suggest! As a first-time parent, it has been quite daunting knowing that the decisions you make can affect your kid’s life in such a drastic way however Ash Park Childcare have been totally incredible through every step of the process – from induction to the current day.

The management and the owner were exceptionally rude and unprofessional with multiple incidents I had brought to their attention. I was only given excuse after excuse rather than acknowledging their lack of care and understanding when it comes to childcare and how to run a sufficient early-year setting. My kid’s belongings were not used on my kid but on other kids which I experienced firsthand. My kid came home with unexplained marks on her and when I questioned how they had happened members of team had no recollection and were unaware of any incidents occurring in their care. The updates is highly poor, their understanding of safeguarding leaves a lot to be desired and I deeply regret sending my kid there and leaving her within their poor care. Do not send your kid to this setting if as a parent you are under the illusion that “great” care will be provided.

The activities they get up to are outstanding and they often do trips out. Food is consistently freshly made. They are highly flexible so have helped me out with last-minute childcare needs. Thirsk is so lucky to have such a lovely childcare centre. It is so hard to trust someone with your little ones, but Ash Park Childcare management and team are outstanding and I totally trust them with my 1 and 4-year-old.

My 3-year-old daughter goes two full days a week and my 7-year-old son does the same days but morning and after school club, plus holiday club. They are constantly doing a variety of activities to encourage their development, which I know is expected of any childcare centre or preschool but they seem to go above and beyond with the kids in their care. I’ve never known any kid care setting taking them out into the outside world and teach them the way they do, as much as Ash Park does. Park trips, trips to the river, farm days out, the list is endless. Above all the remarkable activities they do, my kids absolutely adore going! The whole team seriously make it a home from home. We couldn’t be happier!
Our kids will carry on their care with Ash Park until they are sadly too old to attend anymore. I honestly cannot find the words to describe how in adore with Ash Park Childcare we all are!
