Overall Experience

I believe choosing Western Elms Day Nursery for my daughter was the best decision I could have made! I want to thank all the staff for being so caring, thoughtful, attentive and loving to the children. I especially appreciate an individual approach that they show to every kid. My daughter comes from a foreign country and had problems with English initially. During her 6 months stay in Western Elms, she progressed enormously and is now ready to go to school.

Overall Experience

My daughter was coming from different country without speaking English at all. Since she started nursery she has developed very good English talking, understanding (maybe more than talking), sharing toys with kids. My and my wife are very pleased with all her learning.

Review from Aaliyah B (Mother of Child) published on 18 December 2015 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended this nursery since he was just 6 months old, he is nearly 4 years now. This nursery is brilliant from the baby room to the pre school room I cannot praise them enough. All the staff clearly adore children and work closely with each child building a strong relationship. My son has always had a key worker so they monitor his progress and update you regularly with a parents evening. They have a lovely cook who cooks tasty fresh food and they even get the children involved with cooking and baking. The owner is very passionate about her work and is hands on with the children. The manager is amazing and also hands on in the rooms. I have always felt comfortable leaving my son here, it's actually been like a second home to him. His current key worker was amazing and I cannot thank her enough. The key worker in the baby room always made it that little bit easier leaving my son at such a young age. I cannot praise them all enough!!! The premises are nice, spacious and clean.

Review from Katie J (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2015 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son attended this nursery this year. Due to my own feelings: I couldn't keep him in nursery, which the staff fully understood. The staff were so friendly, they formed a bond quickly and were very good with my son. He really enjoyed his time with them. I would also like to give a special thank you to two members of staff in particular, who have been helpful every step of the way and wiped his tears when mummy left .
The office staff were also very accommodating and understanding of our situation.

We would like to say a big thank you to the whole team and would without hesitation place our son back with them when our circumstances change.
