Wetherell Nursery

from Duncan A (Father of Child) published on 9 January 2026
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Overall this is a very nice nursery. The facilities are good with each age group having it's own indoor and outdoor space. Staff turnover is low and they don't use any agency staff unlike other nurseries. The staff do care a lot about the children and communicate well, giving an oral update at the end
of the day and written observations via an app. Management are also responsive if there are any issues that need to be escalated. Food is decent and healthy (e.g. no sweet desserts only fruit or yoghurt). Staff in the two older rooms give good support on potty training. The kids are kept busy, but unlike some posher nurseries they don't do any fancy activities like yoga. Safeguarding is very strong they query any accidents at home, and report accidents at nursery. Although the kids spend a lot of time in the garden, especially in summer, they only rarely go for walks outside the nursery itself which is a bit of a shame given the location right next to the park.
Reply from Chelsea Rossiter, Admin Assistant at Wetherell NurseryHi Duncan,

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Amazing nursery in a beautiful location, right in the park. Our boys absolutely love spending their time there, and we've been with this nursery for over a year now. Kids spend half of their time there at the outdoor playground. Very welcoming and caring staff. The management team is extremely professional
and willing to collaborate on any matter. Our children are safe, well fed, and looked after, surrounded by love and care, learning, developing, and having lots of fun. I would recommend this nursery to any parent without hesitation.
Reply from Chelsea Rossiter, Admin Assistant at Wetherell NurseryThank you so much for your lovely feedback, it is a pleasure having your children in the nursery with us and great to hear that they enjoy their time in the setting. Kind RegardsNursery Admin

Our twin daughters have loved every moment of their time at Wetherell Nursery. The staff have been kind, patient and nurturing and this has allowed them to grow in confidence.


They've learnt so much at Wetherell, become increasingly confident and made so many lovely friends. The setting so close

to Victoria park is a bonus and I'd have no hesitation in recommending the nursery to anyone.
Reply from Chelsea Rossiter, Admin Assistant at Wetherell NurseryThank you for your kind feedback. We are so glad the girls settled into the nursery and have enjoyed their time with us, it is lovely to hear that we could be apart of their journey and we wish you all the best for the future! Kind Regards, Nursery Admin

Wetherell first looked after our son and then, 3 years later, our daughter. They each gained confidence over the time they were there and also loved the outside space. The staff have been great, too. Not only with our children but also in helping us with the government funding that, without their help,
we would have certainly not received. Thank you!
Reply from Chelsea Rossiter, Admin Assistant at Wetherell NurseryThank you for your lovely feedback. It has been a pleasure having the children in the nursery and is great to know how much we have helped you all. Good luck with everything!

My daughter has been with Hilltops Nursery for nearly 2 years and was struggling with her speech before starting there, she's now absolutely thriving. I couldn't be happier and they've helped her a lot, definitely recommend.

Hilltop Nursery

from A W (Mother of Child) published on 29 May 2024

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A great little set-up and a fantastic nursery. The children have always had plenty of choice of things to make, do or play with and more is always available to ensure each child is included, the outdoor space is equally as good as the indoor space and the children are regularly encouraged to do activities
outdoors.
The staff are a real credit to the nursery and make it a comfortable and inviting place for the children, even those who are a little less willing! Each child is treated with kindness and respect, and so are the parents.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone!

A well supplied little nursery, with a lovely little outside garden area, safe away from any roads and very close to a public park. The team are great. My child has attended this nursery for over 2 years. The overall experience has been very positive.

Really happy with how this nursery is run. Having sent both my children to this nursery; I am confident that my child is left in a safe fun environment where they are able to be safe and comfy. All staff are easily approachable and nothing is ever too much for them. Staff keep me informed of how my
child's day has been on pick up. The nursery is full of resources that aid in my child's development.

Overall we are pleased with our choice of nursery. Staff are friendly, approachable and always available to talk. My son enjoys his time here and is always excited to return. He has achieved many milestones with their support and developed lots of new skills. Staff are passionate and always developing
new creative ways and areas such as the new forest garden and the water play for the children, keeping their learning exciting and fresh.

The staff at the nursery go above and beyond individually for the children. Staff are approachable. And ensure an abundance of activities for the children wether it's inside or outside. I am always given and happy with the feedback given for my children. Social skills are very important and it appears
my children are thriving with this support. I would highly recommend this nursery.

The staff are very welcoming and always explain to me what they have been up to in their sessions. My son always comes out smiling, his speech has become better throughout and has become more confident and independent. Also, he is always excited to get back to it when we arrive at the school gates.

Brilliant nursery, my child has really come out of his shell since attending. Staff always make sure the children have different fun learning activities on a daily basis. Children do a lot of outdoor learning in their forest school section. Staff are very friendly and accommodate the children's individual
needs. Would highly recommend it.

I am really happy with how my child has settled in with the nursery; she loves the staff and her friends and has come on so well. I worried at first that she wouldn't settle as she was a lockdown baby, but even when she's not feeling 100%, she wants to go.

For my son it was not very easy settling at nursery, especially because of the language barrier (English is not his main language) but thanks to the manager and Finlay Nursery staff he started to enjoy the time spent in there.

Lovely staff, who really care for the children they look after. The nursery has lots of different sensory areas for children to be creative and develop their skills, from the soft play to the forest garden. Kids get to be kids in a safe, secure place. Always felt welcome and my child absolutely loved
every day they spent at Finlay Nursery. Was amazing hearing all the exciting new things she experienced, from cooking banana bread to 'going on a bear hunt' or for me to see all the beautiful artwork she had done.
