- **5/5** — Outstanding Nursery School!: I couldn't be happier with Oaklands Nursery School. My daughter is thriving in the 3-year-old room, and the staff are so caring and supportive. The facilities are amazing, from the Forest School to the outdoor classroom, and the values of play, learn, and achieve together really shine through. *(Oct 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some ups and downs: We've had a mixed experience at Oaklands Nursery School. The staff are generally great, but sometimes the communication could be better. The facilities are excellent, and our child loves the outdoor classroom and Forest School. Would recommend with some caveats. *(Aug 2022)*
- **5/5** — A wonderful experience!: We sent our children to Oaklands Nursery School for 2 years, and it was an absolute pleasure.

- **4/5** — A nurturing environment: My son is loving his time at Oaklands Nursery School, and I'm so impressed with the way the staff care for each child.
