About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 38 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 38 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 30 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

Our daughter has been attending Woodlands also Nursery from 18 months young, up until now, where she's in her last months before starting school. We have been so pleased with Woodlands from the very start. They have been supportive, so friendly and caring. We love the big garden! Overall, the time our daughter has spent at Woodlands has really helped with her confidence, social skills and learning to share. Thank you so much Woodlands! Highly reccomend.

My daughter has been at Woodlands since she was 10 months old. Shes loved every second and is now in her final year. The staff are wonderful, the menus are great, activities and development updates are great. She has come on leaps and bounds both socially and academically through nursery/pre school. I chose woodlands because their values and ethos link closely to our own family. I want to thank each and every key worker for looking after my baby in these early years of her life and I would recommend woodlands to anyone searching for a nursery or preschool for their child. The outside space is great and I love that it's an indoor outdoor flow rather than restricted to allotted outside time. She gets to enjoy nature come rain or shine which does wonders for their development. My only bit of feedback is that sometimes there can feel like quite a few new faces more regularly that I would like but the usual key members are always there.

Have had 2 children go through the woodlands also site from 05/2023 until the present day. An excellent, friendly clean and well run nursery. Children always happy to go in and full of stories of their day when I pick them up. They keep them well stimulated with a variety of games which are fun and educational. The food menu is varied and provides good nutrition. I have no faults and will be sad when my children soon move on!

I have always felt confident leaving my son here. I've never had a worry or concern. I think the staff are so lovely and passionate about early years education. My son has learnt so much. He started at 6 months and is 3.5 years now. They have always passed on a lot of information, they hold parents evening which is good to see if he is doing well and developing as expected. The staff have often supported me as a mum, like the time I burst out crying in the car park. They are super friendly and supportive.
My experience is really good. My child seems happy when he goes to nursery. We get daily updates from his key member. Any activities, photos or any sort of useful information is shared through an app on a regular basis. I can see improvements in his language, and actions. I am very happy to see...
My experience is really good. My child seems happy when he goes to nursery. We get daily updates from his key member. Any activities, photos or any sort of useful information is shared through an app on a regular basis. I can see improvements in his language, and actions. I am very happy to see that the nursery provides only healthy food and drinks (water and milk) to children - no junk food at all. I also love the fact that they make their own play dough. I can see everybody puts a lot of efforts to provide a safe environment to children which is very ensuring for parents. I would definitely recommend Woodlands Nursery.

We couldn't be happier with Woodlands Nursery. Both of our children have attended for many years since they were 10 months old, and the care and support they've received has been amazing throughout. The staff are incredibly attentive, friendly, and professional, and it's clear how much they care about every child. The nursery provides a fun, stimulating, and nurturing environment, and our children love going every day. We especially love the soft play area, the large outdoor space for the children to explore and play in, and the fact that meals are freshly cooked on site. My eldest loved going to Rising Fours and it really helped set her up and transition well to school. Thank you to the whole team for everything you do. I would highly recommend this nursery.
We've been with this nursery since 2022 across both of our children, and I honestly couldn't recommend them enough. It's such a comforting feeling knowing you can leave your children with people you completely trust, who genuinely care about their development, wellbeing, and happiness. The staff...

Woodlands nursery is brilliant. My daughter has been there since she was 11 months and now is three and loves it there. The set up with different ages in different areas is perfect to suit the needs to each stage. The baby bungalow is like a little family, where they can roam around like they are at home and play together. Then once they move to busy bees for toddlers it gives them more independence but still with a family feeling by moving within small groups into each area. Sarah in Busy Bees is a real asset to woodlands and is brilliant with the toddlers and helping them gain confidence. Then once they move up to (or actually down to as it's downstairs) pre-school, they are ready for that step to have a lot more independence and get ready for big school, especially the edition of the rising fours. I really recommend Woodlands Early Years to anyone. It's the perfect balance for all aspects of early childcare.
We have had multiple children attend this nursery, the main things we love are the nature feel/ sustainability and the home cooked meals. The play zone in the garden is great in all weathers and staff have always put us at ease if there were ever any concerns.

We enrolled our son to Woodlands Early Learning in early January 2026 and it's the best decision we've made for our firstborn. All staff are so so friendly, nothing is too much trouble. We have two key persons assigned to our son, Nicky and Ava (both of them are amazing and our son loves them!)...
Their food menu is amazing, which is clearly well thought out with lots of fruits and vegetable (our son asked for seconds..) It is amazing to see how our son apply what he learns at the nursery, at home. We highly recommend Woodlands Early Learning to other parents as our son absolutely loves going to this nursery.
Excellent nursery with such amazing facilities for children. We have an incredible relationship with his key worker. My son loves his time here and has settled so nicely. He has made friends and is thriving. There are extra activities to get involved in and he is always outside in the garden.

Both my daughter and son go to Woodlands, and I couldn't be happier with the staff and experience with Woodlands. From going in as very young babies the care and attention was great. My daughter is in pre-school now and the Rising4s programme to help her get ready for school is amazing, and makes me feel comfortable with her going to school despite being an August baby. They also have great community events like the Summer and Autumn get together. They've also had petty zoos turn up and an ambulance for kids to explore. Love the staff and my kids absolutely love it too

My daughter has been going to Woodlands since September (changed from a different nursery) and she absolutely loves it! She runs in in the morning and gets stuck right in! The teams have always been fantastic and are so friendly. I highly recommend Woodlands to anyone looking as the change in my daughters happiness and how far she's come since joining makes it so much easier to go to work and not worry about how she's doing!

I enrolled my son in the baby room when I returned back to work from maternity leave and the staff there couldn't have been better. They were so good with settling him in and keeping me updated with everything that I felt very reassured that he was having a great time. My daughter also went here from the baby room through to preschool and had a great experience, which was why I wanted my son to also attend.
Woodlands have been amazing with my son since he started in November 2025. They totally put me at ease in those first few weeks and I could call anytime I wanted to check how he was doing. He's been there nearly 6 months and is thriving! He's learnt so much and loves nursery so much that I don't...
I really value how the Woodlands staff treat all the babies like family and they all seem very invested in their development. They also take them outside most days which I think is really important and with the baby room they have multiple rooms to play in. I'm sure they never get bored!
The menu is excellent and they have a huge range of meals throughout the week.
Would recommend Woodlands, we are so glad we sent our son here!
We have had such a wonderful experience with Woodlands since our son started. The transition has been incredibly smooth and it's clear he is in a safe, nurturing environment. We particularly appreciate the level of detail provided in his daily breakdowns; the regular updates via the app are a...
Any communication with Jess and the admin team have also been really clear and helpful. Everyone really takes the time to support us with any questions we have.
He's now...
He's now moved into Busy Bees and is absolutely thriving. He's learned so much and comes home every day with something new to share. Woodlands offers a wide range of activities, many of which include outdoor play, which I think is fantastic.
I would highly recommend Woodlands to anyone looking for a nurturing and engaging environment for their child.
Both of my sons have attended Woodlands for many years now, and I can honestly say they have absolutely thrived there. As a parent, there is no better feeling than dropping your children off and feeling 100% happy and confident that they are being well looked after in a safe, nurturing environment....
Both of my sons have attended Woodlands for many years now, and I can honestly say they have absolutely thrived there. As a parent, there is no better feeling than dropping your children off and feeling 100% happy and confident that they are being well looked after in a safe, nurturing environment. They genuinely enjoy going every single day. The staff do a wonderful job of balancing structured learning with what's most important at this age-having fun! Beyond just the daily activities, I've seen my boys pick up vital life lessons and social skills that have helped them grow in confidence. We are so grateful to the whole team for everything they do!
