Hartford Old School House Day Nursery

Hartford Old School House Nursery is a calm, friendly, inclusive and nurturing environment. My son started at this nursery when he was 1 years old, after my maternity leave came to an end. From the moment I visited I just new it was the setting for us. Since starting nursery my son has developed confidence, resilience and comes home with a smile each time. He is exposed to a range of activities throughout the day. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and generally care for the children. The setting keeps parents/carers updated through an app called Blossom. We receive notifications regarding general care information, news and special moments. The nursery are also flexible and allow you to book additional days if needed. As an Early Years practitioner myself, I would highly recommend this nursery.

My son has recently joined the nursery and so far we have had a great experience. Settling in sessions were fitted around my work schedule which was really helpful, on pick up and drop off we're always greeted with smiling faces and my son is always so excited to go back. I love using the Blossom app and getting updates of my sons achievements at nursery and seeing that he's having a great time.

My little girl went to this nursery from 2 up until starting primary school this september. She absolutely loved being here, and didn't want to leave. The staff are so friendly and fantastic with the children. They have a range of additional activities included in the cost like going to Delemere forest, and exercise classes which my little girl loved. Really lovely place I couldn't recommend highly enough. Scarlett would be running to the door to get in, in the morning and always come home with a big smile on her face.

Amazing school I used to go here this school is amazing I loved my time there.

My son has been going to Hartford Old School House for the last 6 months, and absolutley loves it! The nursery set up a different range of activities each day, all with the aim and focus of developing different skill sets. My son suffers with his hearing due to ear infections and nursery have gone out of their way to support him with different methods of communication to ensure that his communication doesn't fall behind. We get regular updates and pictures via the app which we love as it allows us to see what he's up to during the day. The nursery do loads of lovely things around special events, such as a garden party with the children for the Kings coronation recently. All the staff are so lovely and welcoming, and the variety of food on offer each day is amazing and all cooked from scratch! I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend Hartford Old School House to any other parents, I'm so happy we found it for our boy!

My daughter has been with Paintpots since she was 9 months old and she is now 3. The girls who work here are lovely and it's such a warm and caring atmosphere Jess the manager is also lovely and very amenable. I would recommend the nursery to anyone who wants their child in the best hands .

Our daughter was here for around a year, and loved it. It was a big regret that we had to move for a new job. The staff are wonderful, and friendly, and dedicated. It has a great family atmosphere. We recommend it without hesitation!

Absolutely love this nursery and cannot recommend it highly enough. My children have always been incredibly well cared for and the bonds they've formed in each room have been as close as you can get to family - which to me, has been the most important thing when I'm leaving them in someone's else's care. I always love hearing about their day, new things they've learnt, how they're progressing and the funny or mischievous stuff they've done or said - the staff are so warm and friendly, and the genuine care and attention to detail towards my kids frequently amazes me. The menus are impressive and cover more than I'd be able to conjure up each day (week after week), and the outdoor play is fantastic! More than anything, even if they've kicked and screamed when I've left them in the mornings, my kids have to be prized away at the end of the day - I'd like them to be more excited to see me (!), but I figure it speaks volumes about how happy they are there. A very definite 5 stars from me :-)
