Inclusion & environment
There are effective systems in place to support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities and those learning more than one language. Staff seek and embrace support from outside agencies and professionals. They view their role as being an advocate for not only the child, but also for the family as a unit.
Children spend a wealth of time in the outdoor areas and surrounding countryside. They have continual opportunities to engage in activities at their forest school area, where children learn life skills.
Wonderful setting for our child, he has thrived here. Brilliant focus on outdoor education and building independence and resilience in the children. Staff are wonderful, we're very glad we chose Fidgets.
Read on GoogleBoth of our children attend Fidgets and we are absolutely thrilled with all aspects of the nursery. The staff in particular are incredible — they take great care of our precious little ones and are clearly invested in the well-being and development of the children. Communication with parents is regular and thoughtful. The facilities are great as well — Forest School is a huge plus to the nursery.
Read on GoogleWe couldn't be happier with our decision to send our daughter to Fidgets. From entering baby room at 15 months to now being in preschool, the staff have always gone above and beyond to ensure she feels supported, nurtured and safe. This, in turn, has resulted in her going to nursery happy & excited for the day ahead. The position of the nursery was one of the main reasons we selected Fidgets - backing onto vineyards, surrounded by stunning countryside for the children to explore, complemented with fantastic forest school sessions offering practical life skills in an engaging and fun way. We love receiving updates on what the children have been doing throughout the day, and the activities they do are always well thought out, creative and age appropriate. Couldn't recommend it more!
Read on Google🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 We couldn’t be happier with our son’s nursery – it’s truly exceptional in every way! From the moment we enrolled him, we felt an overwhelming sense of warmth, care, and professionalism from the amazing staff. They go above and beyond every single day to create a nurturing and joyful environment, and it really shows – our son absolutely loves going in, and seeing him so happy is everything to us as parents. The setting is idyllic, with a fabulous outdoor space tucked behind the vineyards that offers endless opportunities for exploration and discovery. The balance of structured, child-led play is so thoughtfully designed – the children are encouraged to follow their interests while also being gently guided to develop important skills. It’s the perfect combination of freedom and support. Communication with parents is outstanding – we always feel well informed and connected to our child’s learning journey. The nursery even offers free information evenings tailored to different ages and stages of development, which have been incredibly helpful in supporting us at home too. This nursery is a true gem and we feel so lucky to be part of such a caring and inspiring community. Highly, highly recommend!
Read on GoogleMy daughter attends fidgets forest school, she and I absolutely love it. I would highly recommend. The staff are fantastic and you are constantly updated on the day’s activities as well as regular progress reports. I am ever grateful for all of the wonderful experiences Forest school offer, my child from animals, foraging, camp fire cooking and of course the great outdoors! A very special place indeed.
