Description
Our goal is to ensure that we provide the highest quality childcare that is accessible and affordable. We aim to help children become successful learners and confident individuals. To accomplish this, we give children opportunities to develop at their own pace through constructive progressive play. We also have good links with speech & language early years advisors and specialist teachers. Your children will be safe, loved and stimulated in an enjoyable, well-maintained and home-style environment.
Our objective is for your child to leave our nursery with the confidence and skills to help them meet the challenges that lie ahead in the school system and beyond. We passionately believe this is to be a joint effort between the nursery and parents, and to that end we will promote a healthy understanding and respect for natural values in all aspects of the nursery environment.

January 22, 2021 at 12:00 amLovely nursery with fantastic staff. Always lots of fun activities going on for the children. Outside space is used as much as possible with lots of toys to play with. Catered to my child’s dietary needs. Would highly recommend.

January 22, 2021 at 12:00 amOur children have been at Goldilock’s since last summer and have never been happier. The team are so positive and fun – our children cheer when we arrive and literally run in every morning. Baby bear and mummy bear’s rooms have such lovely staff who always go the extra mile to arrange fun and exciting activities. We’ve seen our children blossom and are so pleased we chose this nursery. We also love getting updates through the app so that we can see what they’ve been doing. Thank you to the whole team.

January 22, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended this nursery since she was 9 months old (she’s now 2) and I couldn’t find safer hands to leave her in. She’s formed amazing relationships with her key workers (in fact all staff) and we’re regularly updated with her progress. I love the size of the nursery, it’s small enough that the staff know all the children really well but big enough they they have plenty of room to run around and take part in lots of activities. I’d highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

February 8, 2021 at 12:00 amI never thought my son will be able to cope when he started because we just moved to the UK, but when I came to pick him later in the day, he didn’t want to follow me home because he loved the place. His attitude showed he was handled very well and he loved everyone there. A big thanks to the teachers, you guys are fantastic. He looks forward to each day of school with great joy. I appreciate you all.

February 10, 2021 at 12:00 amOur son has attended Goldilocks since March 2019. We had a series of settling in days in which the team in the baby room made me feel confident that they would provide personalised care for my baby. He thrived in the Baby Bear room, forming strong bonds with the staff. He then moved down to the Mummy Bear room. He has formed a great attachment to the staff and now really enjoys going. The nursery has a lovely outdoor space with outdoor toys for the children to play on. There have been recent improvements in the fencing of the nursery which adds to security and privacy. The food is cooked on-site and offers a good variety including vegetarian options. My son has been supported to meet his developmental milestones, and there have been regular reports on his progress. We were also offered a video parent meeting during the pandemic to discuss his care.

March 1, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has started at Goldilocks pre-school in January this year and she is thriving there. She is really enjoying it and she settled really quickly. The staff in Goldilocks are fantastic and very caring and nurturing and the resources are very good. I have no complaints and feel very confident leaving my daughter in their care. The focus is on playing and the children learn so much and have fun whilst they are doing it. I couldn’t recommend this pre-school highly enough.

January 13, 2022 at 12:00 amSince starting in the Daddy Bear’s at Goldilocks our son has absolutely thrived. He goes running in in the morning with a big smile on his face and barely a backward glance to say bye.
They have great facilities, and always have lots of fun activities planned for the children. We love getting updates and photographs on the app of what they’ve been up to, and always get a detailed report at the end of the day. Without even realising he’s doing it because it’s made into fun educational games, his counting and letter recognition skills have really developed.
He absolutely loves all of the staff, and comes home talking about them all, he has formed real bonds with them and considers the staff to all to be his friends.
We love it so much we’ve just started our daughter in the Baby Bears too. We’ve been so pleased with the settling in process for her, and love that we get such detailed daily diaries of what she’s been up to.
Couldn’t be happier with the entire setting.

December 21, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been at Goldilocks since March 2021. She loves nursery which proves to me she is provided with a well-structured and developing environment. The management of the nursery are very accommodating of any feedback I have and respond accordingly.

December 21, 2022 at 12:00 amSince starting with Goldilocks Nursery (Ashford) in April 2022, my little boy has thrived. He is happy to go in each morning and happy to tell me about his day each evening. Staff always make sure to give you time to discuss issues if you need to at drop off and provide a good overview of the day at pickup. I am also very happy to know my little boy gets healthy and good food each day and he gets to engage with other children in a positive way, which has greatly helped his socialisation skills. I also think that the app that Goldilocks uses, is excellent and staff use it regularly and actively throughout each day. There has been a wonderful range of activities over the Christmas season and communication is excellent. I would highly recommend Goldilocks as a safe and fun place for children. My thanks to all of the staff.

December 22, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little one has been with the nursery since she was a baby. Currently now in the oldest class group, she has been enjoying her experience there. As she is a bit sensitive, it has been taken on board by her caregivers making sure she feels settled when relating with new faces at the nursery.
