I couldn't be happier with Purple Willows at Nuxley Village. My daughter (1 years old) is absolutely thriving and is so excited to go in every day. The staff are wonderful and always greet her with a smile and her name and genuinely seem happy to see us. The setting is well kept and has lots of lovely
resources available and the outdoor space is beautiful.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at purple willow.From day one, the team made both our daughter and us feel completely comfortable and welcomed. The facilities are excellent and have everything you'd expect from a high-quality nursery.


What we really appreciate is how well they keep us updated

on every little detail throughout the day, which gives us great peace of mind. The regular parent evenings are also very helpful - the staff take the time to share our daughter's progress and guide us on things we can do at home to support her development.


Most importantly, our daughter absolutely loves going there! It's wonderful to see how much she enjoys her time and how positively the nursery has contributed to her growth and confidence.


We're truly grateful to the whole team and would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a caring, professional, and nurturing environment.

I had my daughter full time at the Purple Willows nursery and she felt very much loved by the staff, the food was good as it is freshly prepared on site, the nursery is very clean and the daily activities have helped my daughter to develop nicely. The nursery provided a very good communication and I
always new what was happening with my daughter, a very much needed feeling for any parent.
I would recommend Purple Willows to anyone as I was very happy with my daughter's experience.

We couldn't be happier with our daughter's nursery experience. From the beginning, the staff have been welcoming and genuinely caring. They take the time to get to know each child, and it shows in the way our daughter has settled in so quickly.


The communication with parents is excellent, we're

always kept up to date with her progress, daily activities, and little milestones through the app. gives us so much peace of mind knowing she's in a safe and nurturing environment where she is encouraged to learn, play, and grow.


Our daughter has developed so much confidence since starting here, and it's clear that the team put a lot of effort into creating engaging activities that support her development. Most importantly, she absolutely loves going in every morning, which speaks volumes.


We are so grateful to the amazing staff and would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a place where their child will be cared for, supported, and truly happy.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
If I could give zero stars, I would. This nursery is chaotic, unsafe, and poorly managed. From day one, there were safeguarding breaches, including sharing confidential info about another child. Staff were unprepared, uncaring, and constantly changed without notice. Our daughter's key worker was removed
without explanation, and her replacement never introduced herself. Unqualified staff were used to meet ratios, including kitchen and reception staff. Basic care was neglected-our daughter came home thirsty and sunburnt. Her dietary needs were repeatedly ignored. Promised programmes and trips never materialised; the curriculum is vague and inconsistent. Leadership is toxic-the manager is aggressive, defensive, and unprofessional. We witnessed her shouting at staff and parents in front of children. Fees are extortionate, with charges for services not provided. There's no transparency or accountability. This is not a nurturing or professional environment-it prioritises profit over children.

The nursery is so amazing! I moved my son here after he wasn't settling it at another nursery. They have been so welcoming and nurturing and since he's made such incredible progress. The carers there are very patient and understanding. I love how they keep me updated with his day, informing me of his
progress constantly and really helping with his potty training. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone in the area!

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
I think that the teachers at the nursery are great and provided my child with the right tools, experiences, attention that is needed at their age. Over the years there have been ups and downs with the nursery, however the majority of the issues were solved by pushing, sometimes quite regularly, for
catch-ups with teachers and management and talking through solutions. Unfortunately, not everything was sorted, especially a few very important issues related to fees, hidden costs, and communication with top management, completely absent and evasive to talking with parents. It is literally impossible to talk with the Director, and get something changed/improved if it means their direct involvement.

Our child has been attending Purple Willows for 6 months now, and he has settled very well, he is happy to go into the setting every morning and feels safe with all the staff. On a daily basis, we received a report of what he has done and he really looks to be enjoying himself! He does various activities
that really support and develop his motor skills, he is learning songs and words at PW, with the support of the nursery staff. PW really does know my son, they have picked up on his personality and attributes very well. I have great comfort dropping my son to PW, knowing he will be well looked after and happy!

I cannot recommend Purple Willows Nursery enough! The staff are warm, welcoming, and truly care about my child's development. I love that the staff work well with me to support my child and her needs. The facilities are well-kept, and they offer a great balance between education and fun. My child loves
the activities, from creative arts, sensory room play to outdoor playtime, and I have seen significant progress in their social and learning skills. I love the fact they incorporate different cuisines from around the world, e.g. Asian, Caribbean and African like Jollof. As a parent, knowing your child is in such great hands brings incredible peace of mind, I would personally recommend.

We are very happy here. The team go out of their way to help the children settle in and take time to know their likes and dislikes.
Drop-offs get easy when you can see how much fun they have with their friends and teachers.

The staff are friendly and show how much they care for the children at the nursery. There are different activities everyday for the children to take part in. The app is great for seeing
what he is up to whilst I am at work.

I cannot recommend Purple Willows enough. My son has been attending for 5 months and in this short time he has learnt a lot, and his speech and confidence have improved so much. All members of staff are friendly, caring and supportive, and all of the activities my son does are well-organised and enjoyable.
I love seeing how much he has developed and progressed since attending Purple Willows. They are very thorough with keeping parents up to date with meals, activities, nappy changes and photos, via an app.

My overall experience was honestly beautiful, at first, I was scared about dropping my little one off on his first day, I had a lot of thoughts go through my mind. Will he enjoy his time and feel loved at the nursery, will they take care of him? All my fears were put to rest, after seeing how happy
my son was each time we were going to drop him off made me happy. They have such a lovely group of teachers who take time to teach and care for the kids. Thanks to staff for making my little one feel so welcomed and loved, he misses you lot.

Although it took a while for my son to settle due to lockdown, he is now happy being dropped off and loves his key person! His key person always takes time to speak with me about my son's progress as well as update me regularly via the app! The staff are all friendly and the manager is approachable.
My son eats better at nursery than he does at home and talks about the wonderful activities they do which I get to see via the photos that are sent. I always see a staff member cleaning the major touchpoints so I know they are hygienic. I would like to be able to go inside and see the environments and facilities where my son plays and learns, however, I appreciate this is difficult at the moment. I would also like to receive a newsletter or activity planner to see what is taking place at the nursery on a monthly/quarterly basis. Overall, we highly recommend the nursery and feel confident and happy leaving our son here.
