February 1, 2021 at 12:00 amI am so pleased that my children enjoy coming to breakfast club so much. The staff are brilliant and the children always come home with drawings, often inspired by the staff! Today it was solar systems! It makes me very happy to go to work knowing they are in a safe, caring and stimulating environment! Thank you.

February 1, 2021 at 12:00 amMeadowside is an extremely supportive environment where my daughter has flourished. I particularly like their willingness to use the village and surrounding areas to support learning. I would recommend to anyone.

April 29, 2021 at 12:00 amMy grandson attends Meadowside Preschool and before he started he was behind with his speech, which they have helped really well with, like getting help from speech and language. Also they have helped improve his social skills. I think it is an excellent setting to prepare children for school.

April 29, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter always enjoys going to nursery and I feel she is in a safe place and well taken care of. The staff are always happy to answer any questions and pass on information on daily activities and the food my daughter has eaten for lunch. I’d definitely recommend Meadowside to others. I don’t feel qualified to report on facilities and learning but my daughter is very happy here and I think that’s the most important aspect for me.

April 29, 2021 at 12:00 amBoth of my children have been to Meadowside and my youngest currently attends. It has been brilliant for both of them. My 3-year-old has really come out of his shell and adores the staff. The activities are varied with plenty of time outside or in the outside play area. They seem to get healthy and varied meals which my child always eats! The little local trips are great. I also appreciate how they encourage independence e.g. when putting on shoes.

May 11, 2021 at 12:00 amMeadowside Preschool was recommended to me by a family friend and I couldn’t be more pleased with the support and guidance that they have provided my son. The incredible team at Meadowside Preschool are so hands on and I love hearing about all of the activities that they undertake. If I ever have any queries the team are very approachable. My son has been at Meadowside Preschool since he was two and a half and will go to the infant school attached in September. It is amazing to see the development and changes in the last two years. My son has recognised his name from an early age with thanks to one member of staff and her team. It still amazes me how high he can count at such a young age, plus the interpersonal skills taught and about the world around them have been priceless. We will miss you in September!

February 9, 2022 at 12:00 amWe couldn’t have chosen a better preschool for our daughter, the staff are caring and kind and they did everything to help our daughter settle in and make sure she was happy. The management is also excellent, with great communication with parents. They have lovely outdoor and indoor facilities and they always follow the interest of the children to enhance their curiosity and learning whilst making sure they have fun. We would definitely recommend it to any other parents. Thank you for the great work you do!

February 9, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves the staff which is the main thing for me. They do forest school, football, and baking each week which my daughter loves. It’s in the grounds where she will go to school next year so it should make the transition smoother with her friends going too.
They spend time outside in the fresh air and go on walks regularly, really making use of the rural surroundings. They regularly update you on your child’s progress and are nurturing if they need additional support. I’ve been really happy since she joined over a year ago.

We are very pleased. Amazing setting!

February 10, 2022 at 12:00 amMeadowside Preschool is a brilliant and caring pre school where the staff really go above and beyond. Lots of child-led activities by the staff who really make the effort to understand and work with your child. Added bonus of having specialist run football and forest school each week. Can’t fault it. My children are very happy there.

February 11, 2022 at 12:00 amWe have a long relationship with Medowside having both our son and daughter there over the last few years. We could not be happier with the team, the building and just how happy our kids have been. The team have responded to the needs of our children brilliantly and have a keen child-centred focus, feedback is well formulated and regular and outcomes are strong. Our kids see Medowside as a safe and happy place to be and full credit to the team for making it so.

July 11, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves Meadowside Preschool, and so do I. They have so much outdoor space, and they definitely make use of it. They have football coaches, who visit every week – taking advantage of the playing field. They go on walks through the village – across the field and to the shops, post office and bakery for real-life experiences. We get an update of what the children have been doing every day, with photos and how it relates to their education. They respond really quickly to messages sent via their app. The staff are really lovely and handle the kids brilliantly. I am so glad I moved my daughter here. We also use the after-school tea club for both our girls, one of which, has SEND needs, and they handle her brilliantly. I can’t thank them enough.

December 8, 2022 at 12:00 amWe could not be happier with Meadowside as a childcare setting. The whole team are warm and friendly, and our daughter loves going. The daily updates are informative, and the team are so quick to respond to any questions you might have. The indoor and outdoor space is great, and the additional activities like football are wonderful. The children are supported so well in their learning through play, and our daughter has thrived there.

December 14, 2022 at 12:00 amStaff are friendly and attentive and really show care and develop individual relationships with the children. The environment is gentle and relaxed and with brilliant facilities, including the playing field and lovely nearby countryside. They are very helpful and communicative to parents and all in all it is a delightful experience to send my daughter here. Thank you!

December 19, 2022 at 12:00 amOur daughter loves going to Meadowside Preschool breakfast club. She wakes up most mornings asking if it is the day to go to breakfast club. The staff are amazing. Our daughter would love to go to the breakfast club every day if she could.

July 26, 2023 at 12:00 amOur three children have all attended Meadowside Preschool and have all loved it. The team are really friendly and welcoming and are very attentive to all of the children’s needs. The setting is fantastic with great indoor and outdoor space, and close proximity to the countryside which they take advantage of by going for nice walks.

July 26, 2023 at 12:00 amOur twins currently attend Meadowside Preschool and really enjoy it. The team were really welcoming and they settled straight away, and have loved every day there. The outdoor space is lovely with large garden and countryside nearby. The team do a large variety of different activities with the children and post lots of pictures for the parents which is nice, and they also do football coaching sessions. Couldn’t recommend Meadowside highly enough.

August 7, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter (and I) love Meadowside Preschool. The staff are so friendly and have really made her feel welcome and helped her blossom. The setting is really lovely, with free access to the playing field and loads of outdoor activities like mud kitchens and raised beds to grow things in. The children are involved in lots of activities such as football and baking. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

August 16, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth my daughters have attended Meadowside Preschool and I am so happy that we chose to send them there. It’s a lovely, friendly preschool. The team are wonderful and put so much effort into making the children’s time here special and fun. I really like how much time the children spend doing activities outside and exploring their local surroundings and community. This really makes Meadowside stand out. I would highly recommend Meadowside to parents looking for a preschool. It is a lovely, caring and nurturing environment for children. Thanks for all your hard work Meadowside.
