    Since reviewing last time, I am really happy to see some changes have been made. The staff seem happier and have time to chat. I feel they really know my little boy which I think is really important. He is always happy with the food choices and loves all the staff members who come to the door to greet him. I feel my little boy is safe at nursery. From looking at photos on eyLog, the environment looks really inviting and he always looks like he’s having the best time. A great idea to move the big ones downstairs for more free flow outside – perfect for my outdoorsy child! I had noticed he’d been coming home with a soiled nappy but since I mentioned it, this has not happened.

    Staff are very good at their jobs and look after my child very well. I will recommend The Old Station Nursery, Mottershead Drive. My child enjoys being at preschool and can recognise numbers. My child is very independent since she has been going to preschool and I would like to extend my profound gratitude to the teachers.

    We have been very lucky with the key workers our son has had during his time at Mottershead Drive nursery. The keyworker was fantastic in the 0 to 2 room and the keyworker is equally amazing in the 2-4 room. Both take the time to give great feedback so we understand what kind of day he has had and how he is developing, overall.

    I always have a wonderful conservation with all the staff! They are all very informative and friendly. Looking at the pictures, my daughter seems to enjoy all the activities done in the nursery. She has learned so much.

    My son absolutely loves going to nursery, he has been made to feel so welcome by the friendly staff and loves his key worker. He looks forward to going every day. He has also been learning lots of new things and doing lots of varied activities, so we love the fact he is having fun as well as developing new skills! Many thanks to all the staff at the Nursery.

    My son has been going to this nursery for 3 years and I can see clearly that Motterhead Drive branch dropped from excellent to satisfactory. I see a lot of chaos since the last manager left. Mixed up clothes, wet kids, fewer details about food and sleep and overall, almost no photo updates on the parents’ app. I think this branch suddenly took much more kids than they can handle. I still like this place, it just saddens me to see it different in that way. But I do still recommend it to NATO contingents, as ever.

    Since my son started in October last year, he has grown so much in confidence. He’s a very sensitive little boy and I feel with your skills and friendliness this has really helped him develop. Thankyou.

    My son loves nursery and literally runs in every time we drop him off. The staff are incredibly friendly and you always get a warm welcome. Communication is really great too, staff are very approachable and always happy to listen. You get weekly updates (usually pictures) on what your child has been up to. A daily log of what they’ve eaten, nappies, sleep etc. and regular focus observations on how your child is developing on the EYFS framework too. Our son is always fed well and sleeps well at nursery. I’m very impressed with the nursery, our son has come on so much since starting in February. They also have extra touches such as the lending library so you can borrow books to read with your child at home. I can’t recommend this nursery enough and truly believe it’s a place my son will continue to thrive.

    The staff at Mottershead nursery are fantastic! My 7-month-old has been at the nursery for 2 months and loves it. I chose this nursery because my eldest child attended for 3 years and loved it also so there was no doubt in my mind to send my 2nd child here. All the staff care about your child and also you as the parent. They really are an extension to the family! I can’t fault them. The communication is brilliant, the care and activities are brilliant, the food is brilliant and varied. A really great example of when a nursery is done properly!

    Thank you to all the staff at The Old Station Nursery, Mottershead! My son has spent a very happy 2.5 years here, where he’s developed beyond his years. Couldn’t recommend it enough! And a special thank you to his key worker! He will miss you very much.

    The staff have been amazing with my little one. He has had a few different health issues and they have been so helpful with this. They are always so lovely at handover and my little one really does seem to enjoy himself. I also love the different hours they provide.

    The nursery is a lovely, homely setting and the staff are all really friendly. My daughter really struggled with the transition to preschool and the staff did everything to make her feel happy and settled.

    Our daughter loves to go to Mottershead Drive nursery. The staff made her feel welcome from the start. They listen to her and take her seriously in her wishes, if possible. She is always in good spirits when we pick her up. We know that the staff would call us immediately if something was not right. This is very reassuring. Mottershead Drive is a smaller nursery than the other ones in the area, so if you are after a nursery with a family feel, where everyone knows your child and you by name, then you are right at Mottershead Drive.

    All the staff are amazing and supportive. Communication has always been brilliant, I remember ringing after every drop-off for the first couple of weeks just to ‘check in’. They were always happy to chat and assured me he was fine. As a parent, you have access to an app where you can see various information about their day but most importantly photos! Each day they do a varied amount of activities and also get the opportunity to play outside. The staff also take the time to focus on each child’s interests as individuals too. The food always smells lush and the staff regularly tell me he asks for more! My son is currently being toilet trained and they have been great with supporting him. I couldn’t be prouder of the little boy he’s becoming and nursery are a huge part of this! I owe all the staff a big thank you but a special thanks to his current key worker and the manager. You are all a part of our family and we will be extremely sad to leave next year! The best nursery in Gloucester!

    The team at The Old Station Nursery, Mottershead Drive, Innsworth have been extremely attentive and enthusiastic about the care of our child. We are provided daily feedback and communication overall is excellent. Our child really enjoys every aspect of the nursery and comes back full of beans and eager to tell us about it.

    As usual, since we joined the nursery, I’m happy for the choice that we have made. My son is getting better from different points of view and many of the achievements are reached at the nursery. So thanks to the staff!

    A great little nursery, the team are fantastic always going out of their way to help ease the child in as well as supporting the parents. Always greeted by a very friendly and approachable manager which makes all the difference!
    Lots of activities for the kids throughout the day and outside play. I am reassured when I’m at work that my little one is well looked after.
    A special thanks to the baby room team especially for all of their hard work!
