Archway Nursery School - Blandford Forum

Since our daughter started in September we have had an amazing experience, she really struggled with dropping off and picking up, and would often cry and get upset about being left. The team have all been absolutely amazing, they helped us find a drop off routine that worked and supported both our daughter and us as parents to make sure drop off was quick and she was welcomed into the room quickly and distracted. Despite not being happy at drop off and pick up time, we were assured by the team that she was happy and enjoying playing with her friends through additional messages and photos or her having a lovely time in her class room. Our daughter has developed so well with the support of the team at Archway, her speech and language has improved, her confidence has improved and she is so happy to get up and come to nursery now, she makes us run up the road to nursery in the morning now as she is so excited to come and join in the fun!

This is a 5 star nursery. So many wonderful teachers/ carers - Suzanne, Becky, Chloe, Jenny, Summer, Hayley, Dani, Jo to name a few, the list goes on and everyone is great; my two girls were incredibly happy there. Thank you team Archway.

We cannot recommend Archway Nursery enough to any parent considering where to place their child for daycare. The team of nursery staff and management are outstanding. Always greeted with a friendly, bubbly face at drop off and pick ups and each staff member dedicates themselves and proves to know your child inside out - their likes, dislikes, their personality etc which is shown also through how thoroughly they support your child’s individual developmental needs. The food is all freshly prepared on site and the children get to be involved with growing some of the food and making it and even have self serving stations for snack time. The grounds are lovely as is the inside of the nursery and our child’s “ grown ups” who take care of him feel like an extended family for him. It’s lovely to be able to not feel anxious or worried about your child when separated from them as you know each day they attend they are going to have a fun filled day in a brilliant, safe environment with truly caring, wonderful nursery staff. The nursery encourage good hygiene, manners and self care and we saw our child almost instantly bloom since starting, his confidence sky rocket and he can’t wait for his days at nursery and looks forward to them. What more could you ask for? We will forever be grateful for the amazing foundations this nursery has helped our little one build and cannot stress how much we recommend them.
