December 5, 2019 at 12:00 amCouldn’t recommend this nursery enough. The staff have been amazing with my son, he’s come on so much in the last year and a half. He absolutely loves his days at nursery. It is a fantastic nursery.

December 5, 2019 at 12:00 amI couldn’t recommend this nursery enough. My daughter only started in August and has already moved up a class. She has come on leaps and bounds since attending and learns so much. She loves all the activities and has such a fantastic time at the nursery. They are all first-class and always puts the children first. The app is fantastic, knowing I can get updates about my daughter daily really relaxes me whilst I’m at work. Thanks again guys, fantastic team and fantastic work.

December 5, 2019 at 12:00 amMy 16-month-old loves going to nursery. His little face lights up when we arrive and he smiles when I mention the names of the staff who are so loving and caring towards the children. The facilities are great, both indoors and outdoors and I love how much time the children spend exploring the outside, come rain or shine. My eldest attended the nursery (she left in 2016) and she also loved attending. It set her up for going to school and she has made three lifelong friends whom she went to the nursery with.

December 6, 2019 at 12:00 amI couldn’t rate this nursery highly enough. As a first time mum, the anxiety I was facing leaving our little boy was huge, however, the professionalism, kindness and the general feeling of knowing that he was being looked after, engaged with meant that those feelings disappeared very quickly. They ensured he settled in at his pace and ours and his key worker is just so lovely. The way they always update us on how he’s getting on, was a big thing for us as it allowed us to know that he was okay. Every time someone asks what nursery he’s at, I’m always very quick to recommend and say how brilliant they are. The whole team at Waddington are brilliant and I’m so glad we chose this nursery – no other nursery comes close!

December 6, 2019 at 12:00 amLovely nursery, my little boy loves going. The staff are lovely and caring. The children are given a wide variety of activities and are always learning. The menu is good, although sometimes a little repetitive. I would highly recommend this nursery.

December 11, 2019 at 12:00 amThis is a lovely nursery. My children are so happy here and the staff are always so pleased to greet them. The staff are caring and friendly and are always willing to help. I am so pleased we chose this nursery for our children.

January 27, 2020 at 12:00 amMy little boy started here when he was five-months-old and he is now three. From the start, the staff have been truly excellent, and have shown him such love and care and helped shape him into the confident, kind and independent boy he is today. The food is great, the setting is clean, colourful and appealing, and the use of the app is brilliant to get an update of the day-to-day activities. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

January 28, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves going to nursery and is so excited every day to get there, she has thrived since starting in July. I can not fault the care she receives and the staff are super friendly and supportive. The nursery is bright and clean and has a great app to inform me of the activities of the day. Would highly recommend.

April 12, 2022 at 12:00 amThe room staff are extremely caring and professional. Our son loves his days at pre-school. They have really captured his personality. Activities are varied, and children and given a wide range of learning through play.
Our only (very small) criticism is it can take a while for pickups outside of the main collection times.

April 19, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son started going to nursery here when he was 18-months in September 2021, and he has come on leaps and bounds. The staff are attentive and inventive with their learning. The staff show so much passion and care. The rooms are spacious and creative, designed to capture the children’s imaginations. Parents are involved in “parent challenges” which invite you to participate in creating things with your child. You take photos of these challenges, and they get put onto a board at the nursery so the kids can see pictures of themselves. I often have questions about my son’s progress, and the staff are more than happy to spend time answering me and offering advice when needed. The one very small downside is that the internet is unreliable, and the staff struggle to post photos and updates on the app.

May 26, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves her days at nursery (probably more than her days with me, upsetting, but I’ll allow it), honestly, she really does love being here. She’s always so excited and happy in the morning, ready to see her friends, and even happy when being collected. I think it says alot for a nursery when a child can be handed over at the door completely, happy, smiling and waving to their parents and come home just as happy (if a little dirtier).
The only reason for 4-stars rather than 5-stars is the app isn’t always updated promptly or sometimes not at all, completely understand that this may be due to internet issues or the fact the staff are too busy having fun and looking after our little ones.

May 26, 2022 at 12:00 amThe nursery is fantastic. They are really accommodating when I need to book extra slots for emergencies. The staff are really attentive and friendly. My daughter loves going to nursery, and it really shows how much attention and social skills she is getting.

July 17, 2022 at 12:00 amThe nursery is fantastic. Our son has been going since April 2022 and has already come on leaps and bounds. His face lights up as soon as he sees the staff and other children there and never wants to leave. They are always accommodating with the needs of our son. The staff are all amazing, friendly and very caring. Love seeing the updates on the app while I am at work knowing he is having fun always puts a parents mind at ease. Would definitely recommend.

November 7, 2022 at 12:00 amReally wonderful nursey. The staff are friendly and welcoming. They know my child as an individual and her personality. I am updated daily on her progression and in regular contact throughout the day. My daughter absolutely loves nursery.

November 7, 2022 at 12:00 amMy child attends Spring most days during the working week and has been in the nursery for many years. The learning resources and facilities are fantastic, and the staff are loving and fun. The staff have always been supportive of my daughter’s needs, current development requirements, and the ongoing absence of being a defence family. Highly recommend.

November 7, 2022 at 12:00 amWe had a meeting with our daughter’s key worker last month. It was the first time properly meeting her, and it was clear that our daughter was very settled with her and comfortable around her. She demonstrated really good knowledge of our daughter, her abilities and ways we could help her develop in certain areas.
Overall, we are really happy with the nursery. Our daughter started in September and has settled really well. I am happy to see she does lots of different activities and eats a well-balanced diet.

June 29, 2023 at 12:00 amI have been nothing but impressed since my daughter started at Springs Nursery RAF Waddington. The passion for child development, the level of care and the overall standard upheld by the staff at all levels are exemplary. I could not wish for a better place for my daughter to be.

July 11, 2023 at 12:00 amMy baby started at Spring Nursery RAF Waddington at about eight months. We were really nervous about how she’d find it. From day one, our experience was fabulous. Communication with the ladies in the baby room has always been fab, and our little baby is still going strong, making friends and loving life now – she’s 18 months. Special mention to one lady in the baby room who is one of the most lovely, skilled and kind people, and we are so lucky that my child gets to have her as her key person!
