We get lots of lovely comments from our parents on cards and evaluation forms. Here are just a few examples:

“Thank you for your help with our children, especially Daniel who you have nurtured. He settled in so well with you all, and as a worrisome mum you’ll never know how much this meant to me. He has come on in so many ways, from his speech, to his confidence – he has grown and developed through your kindness, sensitivity and direction. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

“Teachers are some of the most unsung heroes we have!”

“Thank you for making me one smart cookie!” (aged 4)

“To the wonderful, kind, caring, supportive, warm, lovely and absolutely BRILLIANT team at HETTY. Thank you so much for looking after our two children these past two years. You’ve put up with tantrums, cheekiness and toilet accidents, but always with a smile. They’ve absolutely loved it and totally thrived.”

“Thank you so very much for your kind care of our child this year. It makes leaving him so much easier knowing that there is always someone to give him a cuddle when he is sad or ill, help him to learn boundaries and kind behaviour, and encourage his development in creative ways.”

“We are 100% convinced that our child will now settle into school happy after the confidence you have given within her.”

“I like the kind teachers, the bright, loud environment that is perfect to prepare our daughter for school.”

“My two children like HETTY and I would give it 5 stars. All the team are great and I’d happily recommend HETTY to anyone.”

“HETTY” is undoubtedly the best run preschool in Chester, with the loveliest staff!”

“It’s just all good!”

“Our child’s needs are paramount. There are no hard and fast rules about things having to be done this way or that way.”

“When my child started in September, it meant everything to me that I was welcome to stay with him until he settled.”

“There is plenty of flexibility within a structured routine.”

“There is a very open, warm and relaxed atmosphere at HETTY and I think this is part due to the staff. They are approachable, understanding and always willing to listen and take into consideration the ups and downs of a little person.”

“The support and care our child receives is fantastic. The HETTY team are brilliant and all staff know our son so well.”

“I like that there is a strong focus on play and learning through play.”

“The flexible pick up times are great for me.”

“My child loves coming to HETTY and was settled in very well by the staff there. He is always coming home and telling us bits of sign language and songs he has learned and he loves ‘sports’ on a Wednesday morning especially. HETTY is a great preschool and I’d have no hesitation in recommending it to others.”

“I am extremely happy with the care both girls receive at HETTY. I can see the progress they make educationally but most importantly they are happy there and enjoy themselves.”

“I would just like to thank all the staff for making the four years that I have spent with HETTY so much easier than at any other childcare provider I have used. Easier, much more fun, more co-operative, generally all round fabulous! Thank you!”

“HETTY is a very inclusive setting supporting many different children’s needs.”

“I really like how the classes/groups are mixed ages allowing all age groups to learn valuable skills.”
