Testimonials from Parents at Chestnuts Day Nursery
"My daughter has recently started at Chestnuts at 8 months. This is a hard time for any parent, but the staff at Chestnuts have made it so easy. The staff are so friendly and know their stuff, very reassuring and flexible to your needs and requests. My daughter has settled in so well and has formed relationships with staff and children in her room. I'm so grateful to all the girls at Chestnuts for all they have done and continue to do. I give Chestnuts a very strong 5 stars."

"We could not recommend Chestnuts any more highly! Chestnuts is a fantastic nursery where our daughter is thriving. All staff are highly trained, and this shows in their outstanding thorough care and learning our daughter receives. Our daughter's key worker knows our daughter well and has developed such a strong and positive relationship. The management of the nursery is very effective in supporting children, parents, and staff."

"We have been with Chestnuts for 3 years now. My eldest started at 18 months, and his little brother joined him last May. In that time, we have continuously been impressed by the care, support, and focus on all aspects of well-being that Chestnuts provides. Our children have built strong relationships with staff and other children and been empowered to grow into happy, confident individuals. We have watched as both have been challenged and exposed to the alphabet, maths, numbers, and science experiments—all performed in clever, engaging ways to help the children learn while playing. The children here are all encouraged to call the key workers 'aunties,' and in a very real way, they are. Chestnuts is a warm, welcoming family that offers every child the best loving environment in which to grow."

"The nursery staff were very patient and understanding during my daughter's settling-in period. Now she loves going in every morning and always smiles at the mention of nursery, the lovely staff, and all her friends. The activities are varied and interesting, with many different themes covered to make all events, faiths, and people included."

"Fantastic nursery. My 18-month-old daughter has been attending for the past seven months. Every morning she goes in with a big smile on her face and has settled in quickly. I have noticed how much she has developed since starting. All the staff are lovely, caring, and helpful. I am kept up to date every day with activities she has been doing, what she has eaten, and how she has slept via the app. Would recommend it to anyone."

"The review was thorough and detailed. It gave us a reassuring update on progress and insight into their development. All staff are warm and caring. They show a strong attachment to the children and are consistently engaging them and letting them explore and develop in their way. Activities are well-planned, interesting, and designed to develop a range of skills. We have an excellent and strong relationship with the key worker whom we fully trust. We believe our child is thriving in their care."
