Inclusion & environment
The inspector observed the quality of education during activities, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact this has on children's learning.
Since attending this nursery my child has been eating better, speaking more and has been enjoying every second of it and runs into nursery every morning. The staff are lovely and keep you up to date with what the children have been doing and also send a monthly newsletter with photos and progress of your child on them. The meals are well balanced and have variety. Couldn't be happier with the nursery.
Read on GoogleI could not recommend Highview Nursery enough. We first went to Highview in 2013 when our daughter was 10 months old and didn’t need to look elsewhere. Our son is there now and loves it just as much as his big sister did. The girls are fab with the kids and you can tell they make real bonds. They do so much more than I ever imagined and give them the best start ready for ‘big nursery’ or reception. Monthly email reports with pictures and updates on your little one are brilliant. All staff are so friendly and approachable and offer so much support if needed. Meals are varied with plenty of snacks. Highview offers a perfect mix of fun, comfort and learning.
Read on GoogleJust an all round lovely place and could not recommend enough. My son has been there since he was 9 months old, and two years later we are looking forward to my daughter attending. Such a friendly and welcoming environment. Very lucky to have it so close!
Read on GoogleSpot on, lovely people. Bairn enjoys every second
