Review of
Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School
from Louise T (Mother of Child) published on 20 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My 3 year old twins have been at this setting for the past year and have simply thrived and flourished within their care. They are happy going into and coming out of nursery which is simply the best. This is all down to the genuine care, fostering of relationships and nurturing environment created by

staff members- thank you!
I have always been amazed by the abundance of activities and themed weeks staff plan, promoting all areas of development. No two days are the same! The outside environment, day trips and links with the community were main attractions for us, and it's really helped to develop our children's sense of curiosity of the world!
Another positive element is the exceptional communication. We are regularly updated with observations and photos of our children's progress which is a highlight as a parent.
Thank you to Vanessa and the team for continuing to take care of our two! We honestly couldn't recommend Finkley Weeke enough!

Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School
from Candice H (Mother of Child) published on 24 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Polite friendly staff who take the time to understand the child's needs, in terms of educational nurture, ways of learning with an emotional balance. They fully embraced my child in a smooth transition between nurseries, developmentally I have been impressed by the efforts, planning, ideas for learning,

fun and safe environment whilst being able to grow as a child. My son loves his nursery and his key worker is amazing with him, she cares about the children's which goes a long way.

Review of
Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School
from P S (Mother of Child) published on 22 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our 12 month old has been attending the nursery 4 days a week for about 6 weeks now. He has settled in well and he now smiles and reaches his arms out to the staff for drop off. He's full of smiles when he leaves as well. We get lots of updates throughout the day with photos of all the activities. The

environment not only supports social interaction, but we have seen he's motor skills and problem solving skills starting to soar. They have a dedicated babies garden and do trips out in their buggy. I had planned at home all sorts of activities to help with milestones, however I find that Finkley is already doing most of them day to day with him, which means I can spend my days with him on outings and my mental load reduced.
They did a MacMillan coffee morning at the end of the first month which was good timing for me as a nursery new parent as I got to meet other parents and have a chat.

Reply from Vanessa Slatcher, Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for your amazing review, it is lovely to read how much your son has loved the nursery and how quickly he settled in building close relationships with all the team! Thank you!

from A W (Mother of Child) published on 6 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I can not praise the entire team enough for their work!
As first time parents, the amount of communication, help, advice and support from day one has been above and beyond! Nothing is ever too much for them and they make it so easy to approach them with anything including ideas for activities and progression

at home.
Their commitment and support has truly had an amazing impact on our child's development and we couldn't be happier with their placement at Finkley East Anton.
Each and every team member are just incredible and we would highly recommend the placement! Worth every penny!
Thanks guys! Keep being amazing

Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School
from Elaine G (Mother of Child) published on 1 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My daughter has just graduated from pre school. She has been at Finkley Weeke for 2 years. My daughter has thrived at Finkley Weeke. I loved the setting when I first saw it, since outdoor space and access to nature is very important to me, so the large garden was a big plus. The staff are engaged, caring

and imaginative and i have always been impressed with the range and variety of activities they have planned for the children. I also loved that they regularly took them into the community - visiting a local care home, going to the shop, walks, visits to the farm etc. Key workers create genuine bonds with their children, and they provide excellent daily updates and regular reports and "Wow" moments.
This was an excellent pre school for my inquisitive, confident, funny, caring little girl and they have helped me raise her to be more than ready for school in the autumn. I am very thankful for the love they gave her every day.

I can't praise this nursery highly enough. My daughter has been unwell which left me to care for my grandson, the nursery's staff were amazing so kind, patient and supportive towards my grandson at this difficult time the Nursery Practitioner was was brilliant with him as she always is. They were on

Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School
from Rebecca L (Mother of Child) published on 10 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I can't laud enough praise on Finkley Weeke. Our daughter was one of the first babies in the baby room, but you wouldn't know it. From the off, we have been impressed with the activities, outdoor space, food and communication. Parents vote on a new theme every two weeks and the team are so imaginative

when it comes to making up activities. Even when our daughter couldn't walk, she was enjoying tuff trays for the "colour" theme and making pizza for "around the world" theme. Every day, someone sends a roundup of what each room has been up to, with photos. It's so nice to see what all the children have been up to, especially when your child is too young to tell you them self. We have experience of another local nursery, where our daughter would arrive and leave crying, and we had no idea what she'd been up to all day. She goes into Finkley happily and is having fun in all the photos. This is thanks to the amazing team, particularly Manager and Baby-Lead.Thank you!

Absolutely love Finkley nursery. The staff are fantastic and engaging with the kids. Drop off and pick up and really well managed and take the stress out of it. They go on regular trips out and provide lots of photos through the app. Our kids both moved there a few months ago and things couldn't have

gone better. They have a good outside space with sheltered areas for when the sun is too much. Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone, our kids love it!

from N M (Mother of Child) published on 25 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Finkley Weeke Nursery has been an amazing experience over the last 2 years.
My daughter has grown leaps and bounds due to the individual care and attention she receives.
Staff always recognise and highlight special moments and achievements within the week, which gives me a better understanding of

Hannah's abilities outside the home. The feeling of welcome, care and friendliness is what makes me feel at ease everyday when I do drop off. The school is also accommodating with any requests for additional days and or changes where permitted around staff levels. Big still is around the corner and I feel work all activities and knowledge bestowed my daughter will be ready for her next adventure and challenge.

Thank you so much for this review. It is lovely to hear from parents and of course we are always here to help. It will be sad when she leaves to go to school but we know she will amazing! Best wishes

Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School
from P M (Mother of Child) published on 20 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

We had heard excellent things about Finkley Weeke and, even so, it has exceeded our expectations! It is a very special place filled with very special people.

Our daughter's key worker is incredible and really took the time to connect with her from the second she arrived. Each week, there is a shared

plan sent to parents detailing the topic being covered that week - our daughter has learned so much and will spontaneously talk to us about topics, such as autumn and hibernation! There is a genuine appreciation of the staff team at every level, and it reflects in their amazing work and wonderful manner with the children. The team is always warm and enthusiastic, even down to the way the children are welcomed inside in the morning.

We genuinely couldn't recommend Finkley Weeke highly enough and are so excited that our son will get to experience the magic when he starts there too.

Overall Experience

Finkley Nursery is so wonderful. The care and compassion they have for the children's wellbeing are outstanding. My niece absolutely loves attending Finkley and hates going home at the end of the day. For the children to have the outdoor area to learn and play and being next to the farm where they

can learn about all the animals is truly amazing for the children's development and caring nature. All the staff who work here and care for the children, cannot do enough for these children and work tirelessly and effortlessly to ensure their individual needs are met while ensuring their safety and health are looked after at all times. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough.
