    The team have been highly accommodating and considerate to our specific requests, and this is unique to the school.

    We are highly cheerful with the way kids are encouraged with positivity in the school. This helps develop self-self‑assurance and esteem.

    Team are highly affectionate towards kids, which gives us reassurance! Correspondence from educators daily about the kid’s development has helped us appreciate the emotional and intellectual growth of our daughter.

    Thanks to the team at Oakleigh House for being a fantastic part of our kid’s upbringing! Since the time we explored the school, it has come across as being highly impressive.

    As a mum who has been at home, they were aware that leaving her for the first time would be huge for me, and so for a whole year prior to her start date, they have invited us for open days, private tours, coffee morning, and kept in close contact with me, and made the transition so smooth that when she went for her taster session yesterday, I felt totally at ease to leave her for the first time aged two and a half. May I add that she didn’t want to leave when I arrived to collect her, as was having such enjoyable. All the team are stellar and truly treat each kid as the individual they are. Loving, inviting setting, with the high standards you’d expect from a well-established independent school. Excited to join the Oakleigh House family. My daughter is just starting at Oakleigh childcare centre, and I couldn’t have asked for a better journey.

    She settled immediately and we observed an impressive development of her skills in a highly short time. She also developed strong relationships with her classmates and performed on the stage together with the other kids despite being less than three years old. This has only been possible thanks to the effort of fully committed team members that care about all the kids’s development. I could not be happier, and I strongly suggest this school. Our daughter moved from a different childcare centre to Oakleigh to begin her journey in the school.

    The educators and TAs are so attentive and know him highly well. I’ve truly observed an increase in his command of numbers and letters recently, and adore hearing him talk about the more extra-curricular classes he enjoys so much such as ballet and outdoor discovering. They even had cycling lessons recently. The facilities are outstanding too, such as the interactive whiteboards and new outdoor playtime equipment. I also truly appreciate the journal of his discovering formed via online and app platforms. I can’t suggest Oakleigh enough. My son is in preschool and has loved every day at Oakleigh in both early-year classes.

    Outstanding team and outstanding facilities. My daughter moved from another childcare centre to Oakleigh House in preparation for primary. It’s incredible how fast she settled there and how much has improved. I must thank all the team members for their exceptional job. I must say that I am highly surprised by this school.

    The updates between team and myself has been outstanding and is assuring that they know my kid well.
    There is a highly homely setting which the kids adore.
    The classroom is consistently highly colourful, with a lot of the kids’s work displayed.
    My kid loves outdoor activities – especially exploring the outdoor nature – such fantastic opportunities for the class.
    There is consistently a member of team at the school entrance when kids arrive, which makes the school sense secure, and the preschool area has secure gates.
    The preschool playtime area is well-equipped for a excellent playtime journey.
    The school meals are of great quality and made on the premises – and the menus are made available for us to know what’s on the menu!
    My kid goes in smiling and comes out smiling, which is a measure that she is highly cheerful in preschool. The team at the preschool treat all their kids with a personal individual approach.

    I can’t suggest this Childcare centre enough. He loves his educators highly much and consistently looks forward to going even on the weekends. He has made some fantastic friends already. He is so cheerful there and enjoyed every minute at the childcare centre. The educational resources and wide range of activities are outstanding. The team couldn’t be kinder and more supportive. I also appreciate their app updates every day, consistently keep you updated and it’s lovely to see what he has been doing during the day. My son is equally cheerful with after school club. We wish we had found you sooner! I would 200% suggest it. My son has joined Oakleigh House School Childcare centre in December 2021.

    Both the school team and the other parents and pupils provide an inclusive and family feeling, which I’ve not found elsewhere. We are so cheerful to leave our daughter in such great hands each day, with the classrooms so well-resourced and class sizes small enough that we know she’s getting the attention needed. We’ve seen a huge change in her since starting at Oakleigh and can’t wait to see how she continues to develop. We started our kid in childcare centre last month, and we couldn’t have felt more welcome.

    Two members of team, in particular, have been fantastic with her, making it a lovely setting for her to learn and playtime. Our daughter joined the childcare centre after Easter, and we couldn’t be happier with how her first few weeks of childcare centre have been.

    The team did everything they could to help her settle quickly as she had done highly little socializing during the pandemic. It is such a attentive and nurturing setting with approachable educators. They make discovering enjoyable and my daughter is consistently singing the songs they teach her and doing little dances. She is confident, cheerful and talks about her educators at home. I would not hesitate to suggest Oakleigh House School Childcare centre to others. My daughter joined Oakleigh House School Childcare centre in April 2021.

    His first taster session was a huge success and he came home so cheerful I knew he was going to thoroughly delight in his time there. The educators are all so welcoming, inviting and attentive and I know he is getting the highly best care. The online updates and updates from the educators are also excellent. I would highly suggest. My son started childcare centre at Oakleigh House in February 2022 when he turned 2 1/2 and I cannot praise the educators and childcare centre enough.

    She has only had a few sessions so far, but has settled in exceptionally well and talks highly positively about the activities and teaching team there. I adore that we are kept up to date with photos of what she’s been doing each day. Oakleigh House has been a excellent start to her childcare centre life. My little girl started at childcare centre as soon as she reached two and a half years old.

    My son is highly cheerful to go to childcare centre since his first day. The team is super attentive, attentive, expert, and efficient. The updates is highly great. The kids have a variety of activities to develop different skills. The childcare centre is welcoming and inviting. My son loves the food, which is healthy and cooked from scratch within the childcare centre facilities. The kids have a excellent diversity of meals due to the constant change of the menu. We are highly cheerful to have chosen Oakleigh House! Our journey in Oakleigh House has been incredible.

    My kid also has a proactive attitude to discovering which the childcare centre has helped develop. The school has been outstanding in my kid’s education – I have seen improvements in my kid’s education and behaviour since she has started the school.

    I think the small group and the highly welcoming and compassionate atmosphere is highly much key. My daughter is already much more chatty and sociable after her third week of being there and we are delighted with her development which we think is down to Oakleigh House School Childcare centre. The after school club is also a godsend for parents who work full time! From the start, my daughter settled highly well after some taster sessions.

    His language development has improved beyond my expectations. The team are incredibly supportive, and the kids are involved in remarkable indoor and outdoor activities. So cheerful we choose Oakleigh House School Childcare centre. My son absolutely loves coming to the childcare centre.

    My kid is highly cheerful to be there. The educators are highly cooperative and welcoming!
    Their teaching skills are great, my kid learns a lot from childcare centre his counting and recognising the numbers, a lot of motor skills are getting better from childcare centre. Oakleigh House Childcare centre is a great childcare centre.

    The team, the setting and the overall atmosphere were remarkable! The classrooms are a excellent size with colourful displays and lovely work on the walls to see. Highly expert, and he can’t wait to come back. My kid came in for a taster session, and he loved it.

    From the outset my daughter settled well as the childcare centre provides a calm, attentive and nurturing setting. The team are exceptional with all the kids, having witnessed them interact with kindness and often telling me they treat them as they would their own family. As parent we are provided regular updates in person and also through social media photographs and video’s which show what the kids are doing in school and how cheerful they are.
    My daughter has made remarkable friendships with the kids in her class and talks about them and what they have been doing together.
    Whilst the kids delight in playtime, the childcare centre are exceptional at combining playtime with discovering, such as fine tuning motor skills, counting games, word games and of course dance classes, which my daughter loves! I have seen such huge development in the time she has been there and truly would suggest this childcare centre and the school! Oakleigh House School Childcare centre is stellar.
