Within the first few weeks we have had contact with two NS staff members and received a welcome card from another. All have been very polite, helpful, knowledgeable and extremely efficient. For me personally I feel that a great deal of effort has been made to build a good working relationship"
Shelly KeepenceShelly Tots Pre-Shcool
Nursery Story has been very helpful to me and it has been able to support my partnership working with my parents. They find the interface easy to use and are really happy with how observations can be read and scroll through the history observations.
Dione GrahamManaging Director - My First Teacher
We use Nursery Story to send parents information every day - what their children have eaten, whether they have taken a nap. This technology gives them an insight into what is happening in the nursery. All our parents have responded to the app really well, they like it.
Becca SimmondsSmall Steps Day Nursery
It’s easy to use. Low cost and has a good list of features. Our pre-school have tried a couple in the past before going back to paper based. Another teacher recommended this app so we gave it a try. It been brilliant and happy we found it
GregoryTeacher of French in the UK
We previously used paper learning journals which was time-consuming. Making the transition to online learning journals was a bit daunting but since using Nursery Story we can communicate with parents in an instant and staff can spend more time with children. We are loving our Nursery Stories experience.
AshelighManager - UK nursery
I began looking at other products but they were expensive and offered more than we needed, which I didn't want to pay for. The customer service is great and the app is easy for practitioners and parens to use.
