The Parade Day Nursery - Abington

An amazing nursery! We tried a few nurseries but our daughter never seemed to settle, however at The Parade Day Nursery – Abington she settled in very quickly and looked forward to every day she spent here. The whole team really do go above and beyond to make sure both children and parents are happy. Our daughter has thrived here over the past 2 years and comes home every day with a smile on her face and happy memories to share. We have no doubt that our next child will also attend this nursery when we are ready.

From the first week of our daughter starting at the nursery, we noticed a real improvement in her development (she started at 9 months old!). Now at 2, she absolutely loves it. She always gets excited to go. On the days she isn’t there, she talks about what she has done, the friends she is excited to see, and how much she likes the staff there. As a parent, it’s such a relief to know that while we are working that she is in a safe and caring environment. All the staff, on all levels from the manager to the key workers are friendly, responsive and helpful when we have had any questions about how she is doing. Every person we know who is looking for a nursery, we have recommended The Parade Day Nursery – Abington every time. We couldn’t be more thankful to all the staff for all they do to make it such a fun, informative and safe place for our daughter.

My son started at the Parade just after he turned 1 and will be leaving in a few weeks to start school. In that time, he has thrived and has a special bond with so many of the team. Following a long break last year due to shielding, his development regressed; however as a result of the guidance, support and perseverance of the team in the pre school room, he has come on leaps and bounds. I cannot speak more highly of the team, who are all wonderful, and we will miss them tremendously when he starts school.

My daughter has been at the nursery for a little while now and goes two days a week and really looks forward to going. Watching her grow and learn new things every week and that’s down to the staff members who look after her, they are amazing couldn’t ask for better people caring for my daughter.

I moved my son to the parade when he was 18 months old and I have been extremely happy with the care he has been given. He is now about to leave for school and they have made sure he is 100% ready to do so. His confidence has come on so much that my little shy boy isn’t refusing to do things and will go off on his own without my support. All the staff have been fantastic and each of his key workers have been amazing. He loves the food provided and the activities he does. COVID restrictions have made some events difficult but they have gone that extra mile to make sure the children can do the activities within the setting. Feedback and daily entry’s to the parents’ app have been consistent so I know how he’s getting on and the activities he has been part of have been recorded for me to view. I will be really sad that I will no longer be visiting the nursery. But if I have another there I will absolutely be sending them to the parade. It is a wonderful nursery!

We have two kids at this nursery. The staff is excellent and polite. They do their job professionally. Our kids are happy to go every day to the nursery to do activities and have fun. We recommend this nursery!

My Daughter has been at the Parade since she was 6 months and will soon be getting ready to move on to school and I’d just love her to stay at the nursery for the caring and nurturing environment it has been. I have nothing but praise for the nursery, the staff are all warm, welcoming, caring and friendly. They all know my daughter and have helped shape the little person she is. My daughter talks about the staff in her room, she enjoys spending time with two members of staff, in particular. Each room she has been in she has had a well bonded member of staff she can go too, when she first started. They are all responsive and any questions you ask on drop off or collection are answered. I would highly recommend the manager and the team at the Parade.

My daughter has been at the Parade Day Nursery for three years, and I don’t have a negative word to say, it is a fantastic early years setting. The staff are welcoming, caring and professional. The volume and variety of activities, arts and crafts, and play that they do each day is impressive. There’s never a dull day. I’d happily recommend this nursery setting in a heartbeat, and I’m so pleased I choose it for my little girl.

Fantastic! My whole family has used the nursery since 2006 and we all loved it. Happy, friendly and experienced staff who care about your kids. They listen to concerns and work with you to overcome anything. No matter what, we will always use them.

We have found the service personable and friendly, making a lovely setting for our daughter to learn and develop. We have been impressed by the manager’s management and how comfortable she’s made this experience for first-time parents.
