Aston Pierpoint and Aston House are independent, privately-owned day nurseries and preschools located in Hampton, TW12, operating from two premises just 100 metres apart. They provide childcare for children aged 3 months to 11 years, with dedicated rooms for different age groups: two baby rooms for children from 3 to 24 months, a toddler room for 2-3 year olds, and a preschool and foundation class for 3-4 year olds at Aston House.
The day nursery also offers Aston Club, an after-school and holiday club for children in Reception to Year 6. The facilities are designed to offer bright, spacious, and varied learning environments, with a strong emphasis on outdoor play in large, well-equipped gardens.
The team is described as experienced, motivated, and energetic, with a passion for children's well-being. The day nursery prides itself on strong parent partnerships and a secure environment, utilising a biometric fingerprint system for access and CCTV monitoring for safety.
Our ethos
Our ethos is to provide each child a secure and stimulating environment to develop their unique potential which we believe to be “One Step Ahead”. Strong parent and community partnerships, built upon a very warm, caring and friendly staff team, are the cornerstones upon which Emma, our Nursery Principal, operates the settings.

Our daughter has really enjoyed her time at the nursery and built some lovely friendships. She always felt happy, safe and well supported, and it was clear how much care and attention the teachers gave her each day. As a Polish-speaking family, we truly appreciated the extra support our daughter received to help her feel comfortable in a new environment. The teachers dedicated a lot of time to making sure she felt secure and confident, despite not speaking English fluently at the beginning. This support made a huge difference to her wellbeing and overall experience. We would like to give special thanks to Karolina and Julia, who, during more difficult moments, kindly used the Polish language to help our daughter feel safe and understood. We are also very grateful to Hannah, Amber, Emily, Chloe, Yasmin, Teya, Emma, and all the staff involved in her care for their professionalism, patience and dedication. Thank you to the whole team for your hard work and support. We would happily recommend this nursery to other families.
Read on GoogleWe couldn’t be happier with the care and attention our daughter receives from the entire team at Aston Pier Point, from her first day in Lily Room to her transitioning into Poppy Room each member of staff has been amazing. Her development has come on in leaps and bounds and that is no small part down to her teachers and key people. They know her inside and out work together with us as parents to support her in reaching her milestones. She talks about her teachers at home all the time and gets excited to walk in the door and see them each morning. All staff are very welcoming and friendly and it gives the nursery a home from home feel. The nursery offers so much more than others we’ve seen like sports and dance sessions, forest school and swimming lessons and is so worth driving out of our way for! Special thanks to the nursery principal Emma who makes an effort to make each and every child feel safe and welcome at the nursery. Nothing is ever too much for her and she goes above and beyond to support parents in any way she can. We can’t thank her enough for all she’s done to support our family and helping our daughter feel settled and happy! We would recommend Aston Pierpoint to everyone we know!! :)
Read on GoogleOur daughter has been attending Aston Pierpoint Nursery for a year now and has progressed through each room, currently being in the Caterpillar Room. She absolutely loves it. Each day she is learning so much and staying active, which we can clearly see through the photo updates we receive on the Family app. These updates show her development brilliantly as she explores new things with such enthusiasm. What has been especially lovely is that she has made friends at nursery, and we have even met some of their families outside of Aston Pierpoint. It really feels like a community. We feel very lucky to have found a nursery that has ticked every box for us. Our daughter has grown in confidence and is developing into a kind and loving little person. A heartfelt thank you to the whole team at Aston Pierpoint. It would not be fair to single anyone out, as you all do such a wonderful job and work so well together. I have recommended Aston Pierpoint before and will continue to do so.
Read on GoogleMy daughter (Hollie) has attended this nursery for 2+ years, and I cannot thank and praise the team enough for their support and effort during this time. Hollie has grown both personally and academically during her time at the nursery putting her in the best position to start Big School. The team are fantastic with the daily planning of activities to keep days fun ensuring learning at the same time, my daughter always has a huge smile on her face on drop off and collection and cannot wait to tell me about her day. The food supplied is varied with lots of good choices and the facilities both inside and outside are regularly updated which shows that the owners are prepared to invest for the children’s growth. The nursery team always go the extra mile with outings to the local park, library, care home and so much more. Christmas plays, fayres and sports days are held and the work that is put into them is tremendous, and all the children and parents love to take part and watch. Thank you, Aston Pierpoint it’s a sad day to be leaving. I know Hollie (and I) will have lots of fond memories of her time at your setting.
Read on GoogleOur toddler has been very happy at Aston Pierpoint. His key-persons have been amazing as he moved through the rooms. Compared with the other nurseries I had visited prior, Aston had the most outdoor play areas with plenty of small bikes and toys. And we choose to drive 20 minutes each way, every day for this reason alone, instead of choosing a closer nursery. Also the rooms are well equipped with books, play zones and activities. We feel that our toddler spent a good amount of time outdoors as well as indoors throughout the day and had enough stimulation throughout various activities. There wasn’t a day when he wouldn’t be excited to go to nursery to see and play with his friends. We received excellent support from Emma and the rest of the staff (thank you Amber, Hannah, Karolina, Valentina and to the rest of the staff) and if we ever had a concern it was addressed swiftly and the staff and ourselves kept in good communication throughout. He has now moved over to Aston House (preschool) and he is very happy with his time there. Everyday he says “I’m so excited”. Overall we highly recommend it. Lastly we found the fees are very reasonable in line with what’s being offered and there’s plenty of options and flexibility to accommodate various schedules which is something not all providers offer. Sometimes invoices can arrive late, but this isn’t something that affected us as fees are communicated clearly and broken down so you know what to expect each month. Thank you for all your support and hard work.
