Day Nurseries Owned by YMCA Dulverton Group

The Pottingshed is an excellent nursery, both my children absolutely love the facilities and more importantly the staff.

Everyday i hear my children talk about activities with their friends, what they've learnt and how excited they are to go again!

We couldn't be happier with the care and support our toddler has received at this nursery. From the start, the staff have been warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in our child's wellbeing and development. They create a safe, nurturing environment where children feel valued and excited to learn.

Communication is excellent, with regular updates on activities, milestones, and any concerns. It's reassuring to know our child is well cared for while also growing in confidence, independence, and social skills.

We've seen wonderful progress, from improved communication to forming friendships. The variety of activities is fantastic, with plenty of outdoor play, free play, and engaging sessions like singing and dancing.

During settling in, staff took time to understand our child's interests and incorporated favourite toys and activities.

We're incredibly grateful and would highly recommend this nursery.

Really happy with the Wooden House nursery since our son started in February. The staff are very friendly and clearly care for the children. My son comes home content and when I pick him up I can sometimes see him playing happily in the room. The nursery is kept clean and tidy and the staff will always try to accommodate your asks.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are caring, attentive, and genuinely passionate about supporting the children's development. Our son has grown so much in confidence and loves going every day. The environment is warm, safe, and welcoming - we truly feel lucky to have found such a wonderful place.

Wooden House is a fantastic nursery which provides a nurturing environment for children to flourish.

The staff have been incredibly supportive throughout a challenging transition for us all.

We love attending this nursery and would recommend to anyone.

Good communication between staff and parents, great updates throughout the day!

We're so happy we chose Stepping Stones!

my boy was unsure of nursery but Stepping stones has made my son happy to come in , he loves it here , and so did his other siblings when attended, The staff are so lovely and really puts all there time in to the children

My daughter, Norah attends Wooden House three days a week. She receives such wonderful care from her key worker and all staff in her room. They are all attentive, engaging and greet her with smiles and excitement each morning. Norah looks forward to attending and always lets us know what she's done, how much she played. I can't fault the setting. Communication is first class, and like previously stated the care is exceptional.

A fantastic nursery and pre-school with caring and attentive staff, varied food, excellent communication with parents, all in a beautiful woodland setting which the children frequently explore all year round.

Our son joined wooden house in September and it has been a huge success. A lovely small group with lots of interaction with our key worker, we are always informed about his progress and any concerns. He loves all the activities they do daily and getting outside! We couldn't be happier with the experience an it has made my return to work so much easier.

My daughter loves going to Wooden House - ever since she started going we have had no problems with her at drop off and she goes to the staff with her arms outstretched and doesn't look back. I think that says it all! She loves being there, the staff are super diligent and the fact they have dedicated rooms with air con and black out blinds for sleeping is great as I know not all nurseries have this.

I like the nursery very much as it has many activities and it's great for the children to learn motor skills, life skills and starting their learning for primary School. The nursery does focus week on each child so no one ever feels left out which I think it is important for a child's development.

My son is very happy at Wooden House Nursery. The staff are extremely caring and nurturing. He loves being outside and the garden and undercover area allows this daily. The activities are varied and helps him his learning ready for school in a fun way.

We have both our girls at Yew Trees Nursery (baby room and little learners) and we are so impressed with the facilities and care the children get. Our girls love going to nursery and enjoy all that it offers. All the staff are amazing and build such lovely bonds with the children and spend time talking to parents about the childs day! Overall we are very happy with Yew Trees!

He now looks forward to nursery. He has made friends who he talks about at home and really enjoys spending so much time outside exploring. We are no longer on a nurture plan and this is all due to the hard work and dedication from all the staff at Barley wood. Would highly recommend to any parent considering a nursery setting for their child.

Our child likes going to Stepping Stones. They have made some great friends and comes home able to tell us what they have done for the day. They go to the early and late wrap around which works really well for us and our child. Recently they have been doing lots of seasonal things and performed Christmas songs for parents, which our child loved doing. My wife was able to go but I wasn't, however videos were put up on the app for us to see which way really nice.

Really love this preschool, my son has only attended since November but he has come on leaps and bounds and is so much more confident. He is excited to go in every day and is excited to tell me everything he has been doing when I pick him up. All of the staff are so friendly and wonderful. It really is a lovely place and I'm so happy for my son to be going there.

We are so glad we chose Wooden House for our daughter's nursery. The nursery has a lovely rural setting with amazing outside space for the children to play. The staff are all very welcoming and friendly and are incredibly attentive to all the children's needs. They very much work with the parents to ensure that your child's needs are met. My daughter struggled when she first started at nursery as she was very shy and introverted around people she didn't know or in unfamiliar environments. The staff were amazing at helping her to settle into nursery and within just two weeks, we'd already noticed a big difference. A few months on, and she has blossomed. She has so much more confidence now and loves interacting with new people. We've even had family remark on the change and we feel that Wooden House has played a big part in this. The app is great and it's lovely to see the activities that they plan for the children. They also spend a lot of time outdoors which I love.

My little boy has been going here since last September and we love it. The staff are amazing, all of them are attentive, kind and patient. Information sharing is amazing, we get so much information about his day, both at the gate and through the communication app. Activities seem varied, including lots of outdoor play, scavenger hunting, sports and exploring. Indoor play often includes structured learning like numbers, letters, and healthy foods. I like the support with teeth cleaning at the moment. But also lots of fun, with dancing and music. We love it, can stress enough how kind and supportive the staff are.
