## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful nurturing environment for our daughter: We've been at Highfield Nursery School for two years now and we couldn't be happier. The staff are caring, knowledgeable and really go the extra mile to make sure our daughter feels safe and happy. The facilities are great, especially the outdoor area which she just loves to play in. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Great start to our child's educational journey: Highfield Nursery School has been a great choice for us. Our child has really thrived in the supportive and inclusive environment. We love the Forest Schools sessions and the outdoor learning opportunities. The staff are friendly and keep us well informed about our child's progress. *(Jun 2021)*
- **3/5** — Mixed feelings about our experience: We had a mixed experience at Highfield Nursery School. On the one hand, our child loved the activities and the staff were generally very friendly. However, we did find communication about our child's progress to be a bit lacking at times. Overall, it was an okay experience but not outstanding. *(Dec 2020)*
