The staff work so hard to create a warm and happy community for the kids and families to be a part of. They even hosted a beech hill birthday party to celebrate its 30th year, which had a great turn out. Our LO is treated as an individual and the staff know their likes and dislikes, and how to successfully get them through the door on a wobbly morning. So happy we found it!

Our three children have attended here and forged strong relationships with the staff and other children. It's got a wonderful family atmosphere for the children, positive and consistent communication with parents, and a feeling of community for the children's families, who are invited to take part in regular celebrations at the nursery every year. Highly recommend.

The staff genuinely show nothing but care and attention in a beautiful and incredibly well-equipped setting, providing a real family feel. It’s not run with money-making in mind like lots of other nurseries making it affordable but, more importantly, a safe, loving and happy setting. The lovely owner Audrey, who has run the nursery for 30 years now, has created a fantastic environment, so much so that many very experienced staff have been working there 10-20 years or more, which is really unique for a nursery. It’s a real hidden gem that I’m so grateful to have been told about and cannot recommend enough.
