“As a parent , choosing the right preschool for my child was one of the most important decisions I’ve made. I’m so grateful we found Jack and Jill – a true gem in our local community. From the very first day, the warmth and dedication of the staff shone through. The teachers create a nurturing environment where every child is encouraged to grow at their own pace. My child has blossomed socially and emotionally, gaining confidence through play-based learning and gentle guidance.

The caring and attentive approach of the staff ensures that each child receives the support they need, and the outdoor space is a fantastic bonus! Whether it’s nature related , messy play, sports games or simply exploring the world around them, I love how much time they spend outdoors. It’s clear that the preschool values creativity, curiosity, and kindness. Communication is fantastic, and I always feel reassured knowing my child is happy, safe, and engaged.

What truly sets  Jack and Jill apart is its strong sense of community. Parents are welcomed with open arms, and we feel like we’re part of a supportive family.  I have begun forming meaningful connections with other parents, relationships that will last a lifetime as our children grow and progress through school together.

It is a fantastic preschool with strong ties to Bransgore School, where children regularly visit to help ease their transition and prepare them for their next educational journey.

If you’re looking for a preschool that nurtures both heart and mind in a beautiful, small-village setting, I couldn’t recommend Jack and Jill more highly.”

“The staff are amazing, with the children are at the forefront of everything they do and the children thrive in their care”

“The children have a good amount of varied games/learning and always seem very happy”

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank Karen and the rest of the Jack and Jill’s team for their patience and understanding with my child and above all for helping him build his confidence. Although he may still have some hurdles to jump, everyone in the family has commented on how confident and outgoing he is since having started Nursery. He feels so much more comfortable to greet new people when he is out and about and to have a try on different apparatus.”

“My child has really enjoyed his time at Jack and Jill . The staff have been outstanding, and so patient and understanding.”

“Thank you for looking after both my children. I am sure all the structures at Jack and Jill will make for an easy transition into school.”

“My child always speaks highly of her time at Pre-School and it is lovely to see her make new friends. It is great to see that she has developed over her time with you.”

“Reports are so detailed. The level of knowledge of each child is amazing. A very welcoming environment.”

“Jack and Jill has been a huge part of our lives for 4 years now. You have shaped and moulded both my children into the happy confident wonderful girls they are . Giving them skills to enjoy and blossom at big school.”

“My child has made amazing progress during her time at Jack and Jill. She has been extremely well supported to not only meet but exceed her targets. We could not have chosen a better setting, she has always been made to feel included in every activity and has thrived during her time here.”

“My daughter and I would like to say a MASSIVE thank you for all your time, effort and care you’ve put in over the past 2 years.  You’ve been such a major part of her life, helping her to develop into such a confident, independent head strong little girl.”

“Oh my goodness where do I start? I am so thankful for the care and nurturing support you have given my girls at Jack and Jill.  It is such a wonderful place and my daughter has loved being back after the break.  Her development has been amazing and I feel so much more confident that she will transition well to Primary School. She always asks, even on days when she is not due to go “Is Jack and Jill open today?” which shows how much she loves it!”

“We want to say a HUGE THANK YOU for working so hard to create such a wonderful, safe and enriching environment.  My daughter has loved every day and blossomed in her time with you.  She is so excited to be going to school, and that is because of the experiences she has had at Pre-School.  You are all so caring and passionate about what you do and it shines through, our village is lucky to have you.”

“So sad my daughter’s time with you is coming to an end, but so pleased that I sent her to you as I think it was one of the best decisions I made. It has helped her grow and develop in a new environment which has offered her fantastic opportunities.  I couldn’t recommend Jack and Jill enough.”

“Jack and Jill has been great for my daughter as she has been able to build up a number of friendships that will carry her through to big school.”

“I was impressed with the activities when I first looked around.  I liked the secure environment and welcoming staff.”

“If any concerns/queries have come up, staff are happy to help.”

“As a parent I have enjoyed seeing my child happy and stimulated in a positive learning environment.”

“The transition to the primary school is fantastic – there are so many opportunities for visits and contact that the children seem so ready and well prepared when the first day comes!”
