“My experience with Northampton College Day Nursery has been wonderful. I couldn’t ask for a better nursery. The staff is very friendly and caring, they keep me updated with activities in the nursery and how my children are progressing. The environment of the nursery is welcoming. The rooms are large with lots of toys inside as well as outside. Everything is organised and clean. Our twins are very happy when we pick them up and we can say with assurity that they are well looked after. I would definitely recommend this nursery.”

“Our child has thrived at this nursery. We've been consistently impressed with the caring staff and stimulating environment. Thank you Kiddi Caru GP.”

Danny and Sam really made our transition into using and trusting a chilminding service very stress free my son enjoyed the games play learning and Im ashamed to say the food often asking for 2nds at meal times. I would have no concerns recomending a,t,c,s to anyone a warm welcome home were you can have fun and be safe. thanks Tracey”

“Sending my child to Acorn day nursery at Brafield-on-Green was the best decision we made for him. I was nervous about our son starting nursery at a young age, especially being a first time mum however, thanks to the genuine love and compassion shown by staff, he settled in quickly. I cannot thank them enough for everything they do. They are very attentive to both the unique needs of my son and of us as parents. We have seen him grow and develop into wonderful young boy. His social interaction, speech and self confidence has come along way since starting nursery. It is such a joy to be able to drop him off knowing he absolutely loves spending every minute he is there with the comfort of knowing he is in safe hands. Our second son will soon be starting at Acorn and I’m looking forward to seeing him develop and thrive just as his brother does. The nursery have a wonderful big outdoor space which they make full use of in all weather which I think is brilliant”

“Friendly staff, a lovely nursery. They have really helped our little one grow and gain confidence in all they do.”

“Both of my children have attended Apple Tree Nursery, starting in the baby room and then moving up to the big room. I’ve been so impressed with how well they’ve developed and the milestones they’ve reached during their time there. It’s amazing to see the new skills they bring home and how much confidence they’ve gained. What means the most to me is how happy they are to go in every day. Even my youngest, who is usually very shy and cautious with strangers, looks forward to nursery and goes in with a smile. The small group sizes and family-oriented atmosphere make such a difference. It feels warm and personal. We are grateful for the wonderful care and support from the staff, and we’ve already recommended Apple Tree Nursery to our friends. Thank you Apple Tree ❤️”

“I highly recommend Bonding before Birth. We have used them already a few times and always had a great service. They also have many gadgets for very good prices!”

“Our little one goes to Play2Learn, started off in baby room and now transitioned to pre-school. It’s a great setting with incredible staff. His key worker is brilliant! I would highly recommend it to parents looking for a nurturing setting for their little ones.”

“Lovely place to take ur kids to if living hereby”

“Lovely little play park for the kids. Take my granddaughter for walks and a swing”

“Little Birches is a wonderful nurturing nursery that fully supports and cherishes the children. Every day fun activities are planned which the children love. They communicate very well to parents and arrange lots of lovely activities like Mother Day picnics. The children are so happy here.”

“Such hidden gem. The ticket and food price are very reasonable. There are activities for both my smaller kid (2 year old) and older kid (5 year old). Minimal supervisision is needed. It is certainly not the largest soft play but the nicest I have been to. I will always take my kids here when taking their mom on her shopping trip at Bicester village.”

“Comfortable and confident to leave my children here. I have 2 children at the nursery of different ages so have seen many of the staff who are all welcoming and friendly. The nursery manager, Lidia,is a godsend, always around and happy to help and provide guidance. Especially as new parents we have plenty of questions over processes and what’s “normal” so to have her to help is priceless to reassure us. Seen a couple of comments to the contrary (suspiciously posted at almost identical times) but it’s no way representative of reality. In summary, excellent nursery, well run and efficient and highly recommended”

“Great youth club for kids. Fantastic staff keeping them all busy and entertained”

“My two children joined last year after coming from another primary school and this is by far the best school of heard of and been to. The children love it teachers are fab to.”

“This is a fantastic preschool. I can’t praise it enough. My daughter thrived here - both in and out of nursery - she gained so much confidence. The staff are so caring and knowledgeable, and the setting is lovely (great outdoor space too). I feel lucky that she had the chance to go here.”
