My child has attended Queen’s Nursery from baby group through to pre-school, and it has been a truly fantastic place for both her and us as parents. We have watched her flourish - developing her language, building social skills, and growing into a happy, confident, and well-cared-for child. As Deaf BSL-using parents with a bilingual child, it can be challenging to find the right setting, but Queen’s Nursery has exceeded our expectations. The staff are wonderfully accommodating, and our needs have always been met with care and understanding. Their genuine commitment to inclusivity shines through every day, and it meant so much to us when they thoughtfully incorporated some BSL into their Christmas performance. Communication has been excellent throughout our time here — we receive regular updates, the staff are always responsive to any questions, and we have complete trust in their care. The nursery environment itself is lovely, both indoors and outdoors, with fantastic facilities that have enriched our child’s experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Queen’s Nursery to other parents, and we know our child will truly miss it when she moves on to school.

Wonderful nursery! The staff are absolutely fantastic - highly skilled, trustworthy and completely dedicated to giving the children the best early years experience. A wide range of activities are put on every week, from French and music classes to forest walks, baking, visiting the local care home and lots of garden play; There is a great mix of fun and gentle preparation for starting school. Food is also of a high standard and meal plans created in consultation with parents. Our child looks forward to nursery every morning and we are thankful to all the staff that create such a joyful experience for him 😊.

I would definitely recommend both Queens pre school and Queens baby nurseries. We are extremely happy with the staff and the premises. The teachers are knowledgeable, caring, attentive and committed to build a partnership with the parents. The children experience a wide variety of activities, daily specialist classes (e.g. french, yoga, phonetics etc). They are getting them ready for school by building their confidence and independence. There is a lot of work in the background to prepare all of these fun and very educational activities. There are also plenty of opportunities for families to participate in stay and play sessions inside and outside of the nursery's premises. When we drop off our boys we know they are in very good hands. The nursery also keeps the parents up to date via the Family app, so we are able to see what the children have been up to during the day. The evening drop off are always very helpful and informative. Thank you so much for all your hard work

Incredible nursery and staff. This is our second nursery due to a house move, and this nursery is noticeably better. The staff take time to get to know the children and work with parents to ensure any particular needs or development areas are addressed. They take the children on forest walks, visit care homes, go to coffee shops, and host lots of parent+children activities. The children are always stimulated. Amazing

A lovely little nursery where our child has flourished. As our child has got closer to school age- I really feel the nursery have pushed the boundaries on what they are learning and getting them ready for school, not to mention the creative and fun activities they do regularly. Fire station visits, animals, drama school performances, regular classes such as yoga, French, a fun phonics class, they are well and truly spoilt! The staff are all wonderful.
