Marlborough House School Nursery

Over the moon with Marlborough House School Nursery, the entire community and all the hard work and care that goes into looking after our daughter. Our little girl loves attending and always leaves full of energy and with a big smile on her face, we have really noticed how our daughter has advanced since attending. We always knew Marlborough House School would be a super place to send our children and Marlborough House School have exceeded expectations. There is a great variety of tasks, and as parents, we are always updated with everything from what is being taught to what is being served at lunch. I love how seasonal events are incorporated into teaching: you can really see how sessions are used to teach the children basics whilst staying fun. The outside space is fantastic and has lots of space and equipment for children to play and share. The staff are incredibly caring and nurturing and if we have ever needed to talk to them then we have always been able to. We are so happy and more importantly, so is our daughter.

We are delighted with the care provided by the amazing staff at Marlborough House. The facilities and activities on offer are fantastic. There is a lovely feel to the nursery which is echoed by the rest of the school cannot recommend it highly enough.

Marlborough House School Nursery is an amazing nursery! My son started in September 2022 and he absolutely loves it, so much so that he asked me if he could go an extra day this term. The staff are incredible, kind and caring, and the activities that the children get to do are so innovative, varied and no day is the same! I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend this nursery and my daughter is extremely excited to start this coming September!

Marlborough House School Nursery is the most wonderful environment a parent could wish for. The children are encouraged to be: independent yet part of the family, strong yet compassionate, free yet focused and task-driven yet imaginative. Every child is nurtured, encouraged and loved. Every child can be whoever they want to be without fear of criticism or failure. The indoor and outdoor space is solely child-focused, the rotation of activities and role-play areas ensures that there is something for every child to engage with. Plus, of course, the addition of their beloved animal friends. Lunch in the main dining hall, PE, music, Spanish, ballet, forest school, cooking need I go on? As parents you feel completely involved in your child’s learning journey, no question is too silly. The staff never fail to greet you with a smile – come rain, shine or toddler germs! Marlborough House School Nursery is the sort of foundation every parent dreams of their child having and we are so lucky to be a part of it.

A magical place where my little girl was cared for and loved as if she were in a family. She will keep wonderful memories and has learned to be independent and self-confident. The Forest school experience was extraordinary, as was the contact with nature and seeing the birth of small animals. She was always happy to go and smiling at pickup time.

There is nowhere better! Children are extremely happy, well cared for and constantly learning. The staff are amazing. The facilities the children have access to are great and there are lots of opportunities for outdoor learning.

Our son attended Marlborough House School Nursery for two years, prior to that we enjoyed the weekly ‘toddler sessions’ which were run at the nursery. During the time he was there our little boy learned to talk, share and engage with his peers. He grew in confidence, ability and independence. As nursery spans three year groups, our son has friends throughout nursery and pre-prep. The staff welcomed us as a family and involved us at every stage. Nursery children are given the opportunity to engage with children in reception at lunch and on nature walks, allowing them to learn from older children who they can identify with. They are taught music and sports by specialist teachers. Every day they can engage with nature and the outdoors. Each day they learn through play in their own environment with a huge range of resources. The nursery staff are the kindest, most patient and dedicated team you could possibly wish for you child. We couldn’t have asked any more for our son.

The staff at Marlborough House School Nursery are very nurturing and have really shown individualised care and attention to our daughter. Our daughter, though apprehensive at first, now runs into nursery, full of excitement. The activities are varied and engaging. Marlborough House School is a really lovely environment for toddlers/preschoolers and we wouldn’t consider placing our daughter anywhere else.

The staff are so warm and nurturing and both of my children instantly felt at home and safe. The setting is very idyllic with its own walled garden, climbing frame, mud kitchen, Wendy house and animals!
Whilst the nursery is a separate setting from the main school, the children still feel connected, be it through sharing nature walks and nativity performances with Reception or via the older Prep children coming to read to them; this allows them to still feel part of the Marlborough House community but allows them to develop without feeling pushed or intimidated.
The children all progress so impressively through a wonderful “learning through play” approach from the nursery staff, as well as French, music and PE lessons from specialist teachers and weekly Forest School sessions.
I’m so happy my children had this wonderful start to school life!

Marlborough House School Nursery is such a special place. The setting is magical and the staff take care of the children with patience and compassion. One of the reasons we chose this nursery was for the amazing outdoor opportunities. The children spend so much time outside exploring nature, either at forest school or in their garden. The staff support their children with their phonics and numbers and my child is growing in confidence for starting school. I truly believe Marlborough House School is giving my son the best start in life. I couldn’t recommend it more.
