My son has been going to this nursery for a few months now and has settled in well. He goes in happy and loves all the activities and food provided here. The staff are good at keeping me informed on how my son gets on in the day.

Highly recommend this nursery - my son looks forward to coming, the staff are so friendly and caring. The family app shows a good overview of what the children get up to and each day the staff tell all what they have been up to.

Review from Jenny B (Mother of Child) published on 29 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My two children have been attending The Wendy House Nursery three days a week for the past year, and our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. From the moment we first visited, the welcoming atmosphere and the genuine care displayed by the staff put us at ease. Overall, The Wendy House Nursery has been a wonderful place for our children to learn and grow. Their positive experiences here have laid a strong foundation for their future education. We highly recommend this little homely nursery to parents looking for a nurturing and engaging environment for their young ones.

Reply from Laura Couling, Nursery Manager at The Wendy House Day Nursery

Review from Theresa B (Mother of Child) published on 29 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been going to The Wendy House Day Nursery 4 days a week since he was 9 months old (he is now 4) and loves it. He has developed well and has great relationships with his key workers. The facilities, both inside and outside, are great and although he is looking forward to going to school this year, he is going to miss being at the nursery with the staff and friends.

Reply from Laura Couling, Nursery Manager at The Wendy House Day Nursery

Thank you for taking the time to complete a review. Lovely to hear how happy you are, it has been amazing to see your child's growth over the last few years.

Review from R S (Mother of Child) published on 29 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been attending Wendy House since he was 1, he is now 4 and will be leaving for school soon. He has loved every bit of it and made really good friends there. Wendy House has been teaching him a lot from messy play to counting and creating new games of his own with his friends, knowing this he is on track for school which is reassuring. The freshly prepared meals are a big hit with my son, they have been teaching him to do things independently as he serves himself and even goes up for seconds.

My daughter also started the nursery 5 months ago and she loves it too. The staff are so lovely and friendly to talk to. She loves the sing-along time and book time as she's constantly asking for books at home now! The staff take the time to give updates at the end of the day to see how they are developing and progressing. Overall Wendy House is a great nursery with amazing staff who actually love children!

Review from Chelsea H (Mother of Child) published on 9 July 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to the nursery since she was 9 months old and absolutely loves going in. All the staff are friendly, warm and accommodating - very personable. My little girl has allergies and the staff have always provided support and guidance around that which I’m really grateful for. It’s also reassuring that I know she eats freshly cooked food there when she attends. The staff also always provide an update at the end of the day which is great. I would really recommend this nursery and have done to everyone I speak to.

Review from Julie H (Mother of Child) published on 8 June 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending the Wendy House Nursery for almost a year, since his first birthday. We have watched him develop into a very happy, chatty, funny little boy and confident which is wonderful and can only attribute this to the girls with whom he has formed brilliant relationships. Every day that he is dropped off, we are so comfortable in the knowledge that he is in good hands, who exhibit a deep, caring for the children they have at the nursery. We have experienced some challenges with mealtimes, and they are nothing but supportive and help and guide us when needed. He has made his own little set of friends there, and we know that he loves it, and ultimately that is all we wanted, for him to be happy!

Review from A F (Mother of Child) published on 8 June 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our child attends four days per week. He always looks forward to going to nursery to see his friends and the nursery staff. At the end of every day we receive an up date on how his day was. One suggested improvement is that we would like to receive more frequent progress updates on his development stages. Overall a positive experience.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending The Wendy House since she was 1, she’s almost 2 now and the difference it’s made has been so wonderful! We had issues with her eating initially but staff have been so kind, supportive and patient with her, it’s improved loads! She’s also become very confident, and is really coming out of her shell, loves attending the nursery and getting involved in all the activities they offer. Staff are always happy, caring , friendly and welcome you with open arms which is so nice to see!

Review from Joanne D (Mother of Child) published on 6 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son who is now 3.5, has been with the Wendy House since he was 11 months old. After the initial settling period, he now loves going to the nursery and has formed close relationships with all the staff, who he talks about affectionately. He is a very confident, happy, inquisitive little boy and it's a pleasure to see him so happy after his day at the nursery. He eats well at The Wendy House and I like the fact that he is eating freshly cooked meals and the menus include lots of fruit and vegetables. He enjoys doing lots of crafts and messy play (grateful not to have too much messy play at home) and he is always singing songs he has learnt at nursery. We look forward to seeing him continue to develop over the coming year and are sure he will take with him all the tools needed to start school.

My daughter, now 3 years old, has attended The Wendy House since she was just months old. She is developing into a lovely, kind, intelligent little girl, learning more and more each week. I am really grateful for all the care, playing and learning that all the lovely staff has given her.

Review from Sarah M (Mother of Child) published on 27 July 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The Wendy House has been part of our lives for 5-years now, and our second child took the place of our child as he started school and we plan on our third doing the same. The staff are lovely and helpful, and actually, look like they want to be there and enjoy their jobs. Exactly what you need in the morning when dropping little ones off.

Review from Bonnie-Marie F (Mother of Child) published on 27 July 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My two children have both attended The Wendy House nursery since they were a year old. My little boy left two years ago, and my little girl leaves in September to go to school. The staff are all lovely and friendly, and my children have so many great memories from there. When the kids have been upset about going, they have comforted them, and I knew by the time I was out the gate, they would be happily playing. I would highly recommend them, and I will honestly be so sad to say goodbye.
