Co-op Childcare Woolwich is an all-on-one-level, airy nursery which is set within Brookhill Children's Centre, allowing access to special services for parents an children like health visitors, midwife appointments and childcare classes.

They use their 5 Little Pioneers to help share their core values with their children such as encouraging them to be independent to making a difference in the world. They are big on safety which is why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained.

They are big on happy children and that's why they have areas for growing food (and eating it), regular visits to local care homes and take care of each other and the world. They are silver eco schools accredited, a programme that sees children lead the way in making little changes that deliver big environmental differences.

Their ParentZone app keeps mums and dads informed about life at nursery with things like photos from their day, assessments, meals eaten and even toilet training progress!

Co-op Childcare Woolwich has 3 home rooms, split into the following age groups: Baby room for 3 months – 20/24 months, Toddler room for 2-3 year olds and Pre-school room for the 3-5 year olds. All three rooms lead out to the play areas as they do promote an open door policy where play is extended outdoors in all weathers.

My overall location of the nursery is convenient. The staff are even more amazing, incredibly helpful, and easy to communicate with. Just need a few refurbishments and improvements. They need to work on entry system a bit, even though it's much better than what it was. The play area needs a bit of work.
They need to expedite the fixing of the cameras. That's our only concern.

The nursery is a lovely, welcoming and friendly place. My daughter loves going and she has bonded with lots of staff members.
We have used the nursery for nearly 4 years altogether and even with some changes along the way, it continues to be excellent!

I wanted to take a moment to express how much we appreciate everything the nursery does for our family. The care and kindness you show our daughter means so much to us.
Your warmth, patience, and creativity create a safe and joyful space for her to grow and thrive. It's a relief knowing she's in such
loving hands, and it's clear how much she enjoys her time with you all.
Thank you for your dedication, your enthusiasm, and all the little things you do that make such a big difference in her life. We feel incredibly lucky.
You truly deserve all the recognition. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our twins joined the nursery in November. I don't think I could be happier with how the transition into nursery has been!
The staff in their room immediately put me at ease during the induction days, they had taken the time to learn our kids' names before they arrived and had printed out pictures
we sent to them of family members and friends!
Not once have our children cried about going to nursery and we get regular updates on what they're up to during the day.
The staff try their best to match our kids' sleeping patterns to ours at home, but give us daily updates on it.
The other children there are happy and kind. I feel that this is a reflection of the environment that the amazing staff create there.

This was the nursery of my daughter whom has currently moved up to reception, decided to send my son too as I've always been very happy with the care and love shown by all the practitioners. The baby room staff are amazing, my son is well looked after and he enjoys staying in the room. The variety of
activities is very good, but I wish the old chef could come back, as I feel the love and care she has always put into her meals was the best. Highly recommend to all my friends and people when asking about this nursery or feedback. Couldn't be happier!

My experience with Co-op Childcare Woolwich is absolutely brilliant. The staff are very caring and understanding. I feel my daughter is not only a number but filled with love and care every day.
The nursery makes me confident in leaving my daughter all day and I always receive feedback during the day
which helps me to make me feel I have made the right decision in selecting the nursery in Woolwich.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at the nursery since he was 9 months old and the staff there have been instrumental to his development and well-being for the past three years. He has really flourished in terms of communication, emotionally and socially and this is all down to the patience, love, care and support he's
received from the staff. The nursery has definitely been a home away from home for my son and we are sad that we have to leave because of a change in circumstances.
A very big thank you to management and the team for your dedication and commitment for making the nursery a safe, supporting and nurturing environment. I highly recommend this nursery to all prospective parents looking for an excellent childcare setting!

My son has had a great time at this nursery with the lovely staff. It's the only nursery where he adjusted really well and I'm extremely happy with his development throughout his time at the nursery.

I have my second child at the nursery now. It went through some not so great times before and during Covid with regards to staffing and organisation, but since new managers have taken over, all seems much better again, like it was when my first child started.
My second is flourishing. He loves all
the staff and has moved up to the next room seamlessly.
Also, their menu is outstanding! I often wish I could eat there!

Thank you all for your hard work in supporting and guiding my daughter's development, she has developed into a confident and capable child.
I'm extremely proud with how much progress my daughter has made over the years, how well she had settled into each class as she grows and how well the practitioners

My daughter has been attending the nursery for 2 months now and the staff have been so caring towards us. The transition from home to nursery has gone smoothly as they have followed through with my daughter’s routine. I get regular updates of what she is doing during the day, I have also requested photos
of her and when they can I get sent photos of activities she has taken part in during the day. I feel I can call the nursery and check on how my daughter is doing. My daughter enjoys the food here and the room and garden have lots of fun activities to keep her busy and engaged.

I'm really happy with Co-op Childcare Day Nursery and their service is worth all the money. The good things about the nursery:
App - it gives you real-time updates about your child, so it's lovely to get alerts while you're at work of your child playing or even seeing what they've eaten through the
day.
Staff - all the staff are super helpful and friendly from your child's key worker to the manager. Staff are very responsive to the app and face to face and take on any observation seriously.
Activities - your child has access to great learning facilities as well as a large outdoor space which is rare in London.
Observations are done weekly which helps with your child's development at home.
My daughter absolutely loves the nursery which makes it easier to leave her when I go to work.
For what you pay the service is a bargain.

My daughter attended this nursery for a short period just before we moved. It was very upsetting to leave! The staff are amazing, caring and attentive to all the children. All staff are very supportive towards the parents, as well as the building being very clean with a professional setting for the
children. Health and safety is very high, which leaves no concerns once the little ones are behind the doors! I would recommend anyone to join. I’m sad we were unable to stay. Yet to find a replacement as good as this nursery.

My son was born through the pandemic, so once I returned to work I needed to find a nursery that would support and encourage the lack of exposure to activities/playgroups etc. he has had and also interact with him again, something that has been very limited throughout his first year. I visited a few
nurseries, some very unhelpful or restrictive due to Covid even though lockdown had eased, soon as I visited this nursery I got a sense of care, attention and values towards the growth and development of the children and their parents. Loved the layout and resources available to children.

In June my daughter transitioned from one room to another as she became 2. The transition was handled well and myself and my daughter were reassured by knowing what to expect and even asked what we would like her to be learning in her new room. I found this really good and meeting her new key person
was a relief with not being able to come into the nursery.

It is almost impossible not to appreciate the work the staff and management of Co-op Childcare Woolwich. I have only to go through the pictures gallery of my daughter from when she was a toddler to when she started calling other kids "Toddlers" and now getting ready for reception next month. It's has
been an incredible journey for us the parent and the kids and there are no better people to share that journey with than you guys at Woolwich Co-op. The incredible work you do is evident in the brilliant growth observed in our kids. The live feeds on the web profile have also been brilliant as it allows real-time follow up on what the kids are up to and the professionalism and friendliness of the entire staff and management have been impeccable. I will certainly continue to recommend you to friends and family. Thanks.

I am very happy with the Co-op Childcare Woolwich Day Nursery. My eldest child attended here a few years back and my youngest has been here for a year now.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.666)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.666) out of 10 for Co-op Childcare Woolwich is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.666 for Co-op Childcare Woolwich is calculated as follows: ( (208 Excellents x 5) + (82 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 299 Ratings = 4.666
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Co-op Childcare Woolwich is based on 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 25 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
