Our little girl has been attending Abacus since she was 1 year old and she will continue to do so until she goes into school. We cannot praise this Nursery enough. We initially went for an unscheduled visit as this Nursery has an ‘open door’ policy. By this I mean you can go for a look around without having to make an appointment. The Nursery is however very secure! When we were guided around the Nursery we found the staff very welcoming and the children were engaging in all types of fun, educational activities in each room. The kitchen was extremely clean and the cook was also very welcoming. There are 2 cooks and they cook all the food from scratch. Our Daughter does have some additional needs in terms of mobility and when we informed the staff during our visit they already seemed very knowledgeable and were very interested in her condition. Now, 1 year on, our Daughter adores the staff, in particular her Key Workers whom she has very strong bonds with. She often talks about them at home and to family members and she gets excited going into Nursery. When collecting her from Nursery on a night, we are told exactly what she has ate during the day, the types of nappies she has had, when and for how long she slept and also what fun activities she has done. It is obvious when speaking to the staff they genuinely do care for her and they have lots of fun. One of the things I love most about this Nursery, is that although my little girl has so much fun, she learns an extreme amount whilst doing so, and this is down to the quick and imaginative thinking of the staff when playing with her. When I drop her off on a morning I do not feel I am simply dropping her off at Nursery so I can go to work, I feel like I am taking her to a place where she is going to have fun and learn and explore freely in the best way possible. If it was not for this Nursery and their staff, our little girl would not have achieved all she has today!
