The staff and teachers are all wonderful and my children are both very happy at Cherrywood. They are cared for beautifully with fun, engaging and stimulating activities and always come home happy. It is a very social nursery and puts on lovely events for all the families to enjoy and meet each other.

A wonderful nursery, with a very skilled and caring staff team. The environment is always so clean and they offer fantastic activities and opportunities for the children. My son has so much fun when he's there and I love getting the updates and photos of what he's doing.

Our team takes great pride in creating a clean, engaging, and nurturing space where children can have fun and learn every day. We're so glad your son enjoys his time with us.
Brilliant nursery. Cannot fault the commitment the staff have for the development and the safety of the children. During our time there with our child, we have not encountered a single issue or problem. Comparing to other nurseries that my eldest child went to this by far is handsdown the best one in the area.
Classrooms are suitable for age groups and they have a lot of chance of going outside and also mingling with other children. Classrooms are changed up so children do not get bored.
Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful feedback. We're truly delighted to hear that you've had such a positive experience with us. The commitment and care our team puts into every child's development and well-being is at the heart of everything we do, so it means a great deal to know it's being felt and appreciated.
Our son has been so happy at Cherrywood - we can both go to work knowing that he's 100% taken care of in a safe and enjoyable environment and he's made great friends and learnt so much there. Thank you Cherrywood!
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We're thrilled to hear that your son is happy at Cherrywood and that you feel confident knowing he's in a safe, caring, and engaging environment. It's wonderful to know he's making friends and growing in his learning.
Our son is happy at the nursery and the team ensure his wellbeing throughout the day with updates + photos. He loves spending time with the team + is greeted everyday by all the staff + with cuddles! They ensure children spend time learning, exploring the outdoors + do daily artwork + messy play which is fantastic
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're so pleased to hear that your son's transition into nursery life at CherryWood has been a positive one. It's wonderful to know that he feels happy, cared for, and engaged throughout the day. Our team works hard to create a nurturing and stimulating environment, so feedback like this really means a lot.
Both of my sons attend Cherrywood and have flourished under their care. There are plenty of developmental activities for them to enjoy and their teachers have been fantastic with supporting us with speech improvement and their skills progression. Our eldest has loved his teachers, settled in well and made some very strong connections which will hopefully put him in a good position for settling into school later this year. The communication we receive is great and they always make time for a handover at drop-off and pick-up so nothing is rushed or missed. I would reccomend to any new parents.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're so pleased to hear that both of your children are thriving at Cherrywood. It's great to know that the developmental activities, supportive teaching, and consistent communication have made a positive impact on their progress.
We have three children at Cherrywood and we are all so happy with our experience. At preschool the staff really are friends with the children, they've taken the time to get to know the girls so that every day the girls skip into the room and don't look back! In the baby room they offer all the cuddles needed and our little one has been happily attending since 10 months old.
Thank you very much for your kind and thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that your family has had such a positive experience at Cherrywood. It is always our aim to provide a nurturing, welcoming environment where children feel secure, valued, and excited to learn. We are especially pleased...
A great, friendly, inclusive and accommodating nursery. Friendly, supportive staff that go the extra mile. A warm and welcoming environment. Always great consistent communication from nursery. Staff always have the children's best interest in mind. All the children seem very happy and there are lots of activities for them to engage in and learn and develop.
We're thrilled to hear that you've had such a positive experience with our nursery. Our team works hard to create a warm, inclusive, and supportive environment where every child feels valued and encouraged to grow. It's wonderful to know that our efforts in communication and care are making a difference.
We were in a difficult situation being let down by a childminder so we were looking for a space at short notice and the managers and staff at Cherrywood were so accommodating fitting us in and moving things around so that our son could attend.
Every day there are different activities and toys for him to play with. He loves spending time in the garden and he loves the food, which always looks very fresh and nutritious.
We have toured a lot of nurseries but we feel that Cherrywood stood out from all the rest and we would fully recommend this nursery to everyone.
Thank you for such a detailed and heartfelt review! We're so happy your son settled quickly and loves his time at Cherrywood Nursery. It's great to hear how much he enjoys the garden and nutritious food. We're glad we could accommodate you on short notice and that our team's care and creativity stood out to you. Your recommendation means the world to us!
Our son has flourished due to the expertise, experience and huge energy of the CherryWood team - we feel completely confident leaving our son here. The children are genuinely happy everyday - themed-weeks, activity areas, multiple rooms, including space for French lessons for pre-school, a huge garden with separate space for little one's soft play area - and the staff are so kind and caring and go the extra mile, e.g. providing recipes to create favourite meals at home! The app is regularly updated with smiling photos, they've always been flexible around our work and need for extra sessions - everything about the nursery is excellent and I know other parents agree. Hugs, kindness, laughter - CherryWood has it all in abundance. Completely recommend and so grateful to our key people and room leaders, especially for helping him have a happy start.
Thank you for your lovely review. It has been a pleasure caring for your son and we hope he is settling well into school.
We could not be happier with our experience with Cherrywood. The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming - from the kitchen staff interacting to the children to the management to the care staff themselves. The staff really know our child and are so attentive to their individual personality. The nursery always give us their time with any questions we have and are very responsive. It is delightful as parents to see the staff properly interacting and engaging with the children. Thank you for making such a big transition for our child such a positive experience.
Thank you for your kind review. We are pleased we have made the experience a positive one for you and your little one.
The staff are wonderful, friendly and amazing with the children, I would definitely recommend this nursery. The rooms for the individual age groups are well sourced with suitable learning toys, very clean and the activities that my little granddaughter has done since being there have been really good, messy play and painting. She is always happy when I pick her up so ten out of ten.
Thank you for your review. We are glad your granddaughter enjoys her time with us.
We love CherryWood Nursery. Both our sons have been or are still going to the nursery. The staff are the utmost professional, caring and dedicated team. Two members of staff are outstanding. Caring for our boys, especially when things got really tough with one of them. Our youngest is so excited to go every day. We can’t thank the staff enough for their support! Not a single bad word to say.
Thank you for your review! We are so pleased that you are happy with the care and education that is provided!
The activities are varied and engaging and encourage the children to try new things.
The team at CherryWood know and take an active interest in every child, regardless of whether they work in the same room as them.
When our youngest was poorly recently, we returned to nursery to everyone, ranging from management to the lovely ladies who work in the kitchen, asking after her and being genuinely pleased to see her well again.
Special mentions for one member of staff for the brilliant bond she has with our eldest and another member of staff for the work she did supporting our youngest.
We were so lucky to find CherryWood.
Thank you so much for your review, we are so pleased to hear you are happy with the care and education that is provided.
All the staff members are so caring and really interested in the children.
They recently did a tea party for all the mums to celebrate Mother’s Day which was really lovely to be able to speak to the other mums and also see my daughter playing with her friends.
Thank you for your review, it's lovely to hear that you are pleased with the care provided at the nursery!
We have used CherryWood Nursery since 2019 and we have always been thrilled with the care that our children have received. All members of staff work so hard and the children are so well looked after. The activities available throughout the day are excellent and the nursery also put on some fantastic extra activities that include parents as well. They are so thoughtful around supporting the children to make cards and gifts around the main holidays/events of the year which is lovely. Both of our children are so happy at nursery and this is down to the wonderful care and nurturing that they receive. In addition, the staff in each room take time to ensure that the right supports are in place to promote learning. The app is regularly updated throughout the day which gives a lovely summary of what our children have been doing throughout their day. If we ever have any queries we always feel comfortable in asking and we always get a prompt response. Thank you, CherryWood, you are amazing!
Thank you so much for your review. We are so pleased to hear you are happy with the care provided at CherryWood Nursery!
My children absolutely love going to CherryWood Nursery. It is a home away from home. All the staff are all caring and knowing and my children have learnt, grown and blossomed throughout their time there! They run in and hug staff and their friends making true bonds. They even love the food and creative learning. We are very lucky to have CherryWood as their first start in life. Makes me feel very reassured leaving them at drop-offs.
Thank you so much for leaving a lovely five-star review. We are pleased you are all so happy with our nursery.
Both my children have attended CherryWood Nursery and they have always had a brilliant time. They do so many activities with the children. It's a lovely, caring environment. All the staff are so warm and caring to the children. I always know I can leave them there and they'll be happy.
Thank you for leaving us a five-star review. The team love thinking up different and new activities for the children to take part in.
The meals at the nursery are all very homely and cooked on site and she seems to love the food. All of the staff are so friendly when I have been to collect her and the nursery looks so clean and fresh.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a five-star review. We love seeing how much the children develop whilst with us and we are pleased you have noticed this too.
We are so pleased we found Cherrywood Nursery and chose for our son to attend. From being shown around before our baby was born to when he started at about 8-months-old, we have been so impressed and happy with his care and all of the staff we have encountered. Our son has loved all of the nursery workers in both rooms he has been in and is genuinely happy to arrive each day. The app and summary reports are updated regularly and are very detailed. Photos are uploaded of our son and his friends and it’s so lovely to see them happy whilst we work. Would 100% recommend.

Meet the Team (1)
I have worked in Early Years education for 10 years, and it is truly my passion. I feel privileged to be part of each child’s unique journey, watching them learn, grow, and develop, and helping to make their first five years fun, meaningful, and memorable.
I have spent my entire childcare career with Cherry Childcare, progressing from an unqualified Nursery Nurse to Manager of CherryWood Nursery. Throughout this journey, I have gained a broad range of experience across different roles and levels of responsibility, which has shaped my leadership style and deepened my understanding of high-quality early years provision.
I am deeply committed to supporting both children and my team. I believe that when practitioners feel confident, valued, and knowledgeable, they are better equipped to provide outstanding care and education. I strive to create a supportive environment where my team can grow professionally, reflect on their practice, and continuously develop their skills so that, together, we can give every child and their family the very best start in life.
During my time at SENCO, I worked closely with children and families to ensure individual needs were fully understood and supported. I am passionate about inclusion and about tuning into each child as an individual, ensuring they have the right tools, strategies, and support to succeed and thrive.
As a Manager, I lead with a child-centred approach. Children are always at the heart of every decision I make. My primary responsibility is to ensure that all practice prioritises child safety, emotional well-being, developmental appropriateness, and inclusive values. I believe strong leadership in Early Years means setting high standards, modelling positive relationships, and fostering a culture where children, families, and staff all feel safe, respected, supported, and valued.
