May 3, 2019 at 12:00 amOur daughter joined when she was two and the changes to her were noticeable within a few weeks. She has so many friends and loves all her teachers, whom are all caring towards the girls.
We would recommend to all, absolute pleasure and peace of mind having our little girl there, surrounded and supported by such a great team.
Can’t wait for the next year to enjoy the ongoing learning.

May 3, 2019 at 12:00 amOur daughter started at the nursery when she was 2. She was actually one of the first girls to attend the new nursery at the high school.
The communication between myself and the staff is impeccable and they always have time to listen. I am always informed via email of what my daughter has been up to, the objectives they have set for her and the things she has achieved.
My daughter is a very hands-on learner and active child who loves to be outdoors and this has certainly been catered for.
School lunches are great and made fresh on site daily.
My daughter is now 3 1/2 and thriving. She loves the nursery, has learnt lots and made some lovely friends.
She attends gymnastics on a Thursday and ballet on a Friday.
I can’t recommend it enough!

May 21, 2019 at 12:00 amMy 2.5-year-old daughter recently went through hopefully the only settling-in stage she’ll ever have to go through at school. She’s incredibly happy at nursery and took a lot less time to settle in than I had imagined she would.
I’m so pleased with the difference that my daughter’s attendance is making to her development. Her speech is coming on with leaps and bounds and she socialises really well with others. I’ve noticed how strong the staff are at guiding the girls into treating each other kindly.
I’ve been struck by the high standard of books that are read to the girls. They are much more advanced than most of the books I had been choosing myself.
The breadth of activities that they do at nursery is extremely wide. My daughter already does ballet at nursery, aged 2.
It gives me great peace of mind to think that my daughter will potentially be staying in such a good school from now until the age of 18.

November 30, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter settled so well at the Nursery. The staff are very kind, I had lots of concerns over my daughter settling in. I found the quieter environment suited her well as she had lots of attention from the staff and she likes this. We hope she will stay there until she is 18!

January 28, 2022 at 12:00 amWhen choosing a nursery for our daughter we had high expectations but truly feel Northampton High School Nursery exceeds all of them and gives her opportunities we hadn’t even considered. We have never felt concerned about her safety, care or education as Northampton High School Nursery delivers nothing but the best. Our daughter is excited to attend and has never been so happy or confident. Thank you!

June 19, 2023 at 12:00 amI cannot praise the school enough for the way they have looked after our daughter whilst she has been in pre-school.
Her whole experience has been wonderful, she is so happy to attend and has made some lovely friendships. We have no doubts she will continue to flourish at the school as she moves up to reception this year.
The staff, the resources and the range of activities and lessons available are second to none. Highly recommend this nursery!

June 19, 2023 at 12:00 amOur experience with this nursery and preschool has been exceptional. The staff are kind, caring, enthusiastic and communicate well with parents. My daughter enjoys the extensive range of activities; cooking, forest school, PE, swimming, French, as well as core learning with letters and numbers, which is achieved through guided learning and focused sessions.
The school environment is nurturing, supportive and has a strong ethos of creating an environment where girls can flourish and achieve, and this is reflected in every member of staff. The nursery is not close to us, but it is worth it in every sense, to travel over to Wootton for this provision. She will be starting at a primary school closer to home in September and although we were given lots of information about starting at Northampton High School for primary, there was absolutely no pressure for her to continue attending the school. We will be so sad to leave this summer and I would highly recommend it!

June 19, 2023 at 12:00 amNorthampton High School Nursery has amazing facilities and has exceptional staff. After viewing several nurseries in the area and being disappointed with the cleanliness and attitude to learning, we were extremely happy with Northampton High School Nursery as it exceeded expectations on all levels.
I am very impressed with the weekly timetable as it allows structure but also encourages the girls to learn through play. Forest school, ballet and gymnastics are just a few of the sessions that are offered and my daughters confidence has grown immensely.
We also had a tour of the junior school and we were happy to see the transition from nursery/pre-school to school is seamless.

June 19, 2023 at 12:00 amWe have been over the moon with the nursery and pre school at Northampton High School. Our daughter previously attended another nursery which we weren’t 100% happy with and so decided to move our daughter to Northampton High School Nursery. Since joining the nursery she has come on in leaps and bounds, we have loved watching the bond blossom between her peers and her teachers. She has been given opportunities that more than likely would have never been available to her at other nurseries such as weekly ballet, gymnastics, french and swimming lessons. She is supported in everything she is interested in and always excited to attend – we are very grateful to the staff for making her nursery and pre school experience such a positive one.

June 23, 2023 at 12:00 amThe nursery setting is wonderful and most importantly the staff are too! Our daughter transitioned from another setting and the staff went above and beyond to ensure our little girl became accustomed to the change.
One example of the excellent support we have received is our daughter’s love of trying different foods. This is directly from her tea times when we see the staff making tea time fun!
We look forward to hearing our little one coming home from nursery with lots of exciting stories about her day!

June 27, 2023 at 12:00 amNorthampton High School Nursery is the best place your daughter can go to.
Everyone is so caring, loving and dedicated to their work. The fact that the groups are small helps the girls to receive enough attention and care. I think the nursery gives our little ladies a brilliant start on their way to school and on to a better future.
Definitely planning to continue my daughter’s education at Northampton High School!

June 27, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has joined this nursery in October when she turned 2. My daughter has truly blossomed during her time at this nursery! She always looks forward to attending, her social skills to her vocabulary have come on faster than I ever imagined. The staff are so welcoming to both parents and children and it is easy to address any queries or questions about my daughter’s day to day learning. The staff are all amazing and great with communicating and providing updates. Everyone genuinely cares and wants the best for the children in the nursery. I feel really comfortable leaving my daughter in their care. Such a calm, clean and nurturing nursery.
