Our son has been at Noah's Ark in the baby room for about 5 months now. We have had an amazing experience with all staff onsite since we joined. Everyone has been so welcoming and the staff in the baby room have treated my baby with such care and love since day 1. He struggled with settling in and they were so patient with him and gave him extra attention and cuddles as he grew more comfortable. It really feels as though the staff are fully invested in the babies' progress and are just as excited as I am when he hits a new milestone. Even though they are only babies, there are engaging activities everyday and my son's skills have improved a lot over his time here. The fresh food cooked onsite is another highlight. The ethos of the school to encourage outside time and the facilities with lovely outside space make this a great choice for a nursery. As a first time mom, having my baby at Noah's ark has really eased my anxiety about having him in school and we are so happy here.
Thankyou for the beautiful feedback on your experience with us so far. We have loved getting to know your little one as well as your family. We cant wait to watch him flourish and grow throughout all of our rooms at Noahs ark.
The range of activities on offer is excellent. My son especially enjoys forest school, sessions with the sports coach, and taking part in the weekly "book of the week" theme. These activities are engaging and well planned, and it's clear how much thought goes into supporting the children's learning and development. He regularly comes home from nursery excited and loves talking about his day, which says a lot about how happy and settled he is there.
We've been really pleased with the care, communication, and experiences provided and would highly recommend Noah's Ark.
Thankyou for your wonderful feedback, we love having your little one here and he brings such character and joy to our pre-school room.
Forest School
Farm animals
Veggie patch and mud kitchen in the playground.
The daily activities arranged by the staff is fantastic. Water play, sensory tables, music classes, pottery day.
My daughter is always smiling at pick up and the staff are great at informing me what knew things she has learnt that day.
The staff provide good updates on what the children have been up to each day. You always get a good amount of time to speak with them and they work with you on things like potty training.
The activities provided are fun and centred around developing the children's learning, whether that is speech, motor skills or teamwork. The music and sports activities by external providers are also excellent. The particular niche selling points for this nursery are the animals and the large woodland area. The children love seeing the animals at the start and end of the day and they also go down to the woods several times a week. As a parent, I love the fact that my child gets to spend so much time outdoors!
I'm so glad my husband and I picked this nursery for our son. The staff have been so responsive and welcoming from the beginning. Staff are so welcoming in the morning and are really good at settling my son in. I enjoy pick-up time as I get to hear about all the exciting things my son has been up to during the day. I feel as though this nursery can offer good learning experiences, in particular, the woodland and farm. I would definitely recommend this nursery.
The nursery has hired a new manager who is keen to maintain the high standards the nursery is known for while always putting the children first. She not only wants to hear parents concerns but listens to them and puts in place tangible practical solutions to address them. My son recently moved to the toddler room where he has flourished under the room leader and the fantastic team of teachers in the room. Activities are child-led and focus on enrichment and child development. Restarting the forest school, along with the unrestricted time in the outside play area has also been wonderful for my son.
My son has been at Noahs Ark since October 2023 in the baby room (moving up soon!) and loves it! We have seen him become much more confident since being there and now comes home weekly having learned something new (colours, songs, actions, words). They do a variety of activities and spend a lot of time outside and now also in the nearby forest. He always sleeps so well after nursery days which shows how much fun he has. The staff are very friendly and I love getting the notifications through the day via the app.
I have two children at Noah's Ark who both joined when they were one. The staff have been very good at settling them in and designing activities that match their interests. There are amazing outdoor spaces: a large garden, farm animals and a huge wood where they do Forest school. The staff are lovely and bond well with the children.
Our daughter has been at the nursery from just after the age of 1 until nearly 3 years old and she has absolutely loved it. Couldn’t wait to walk through the door every morning and had so much fun. All staff have been extremely helpful and supportive of her, know her as an individual and nurture her interests and support where needed. The children do so many exciting things every day, with great variety and different themed activities to keep their interest and lots of time outdoors. Highly professional team and excellent communication and support during Covid. Couldn’t recommend more highly.
We cannot recommend Noah's Ark at Woking highly enough. If you are considering nurseries for your child in the Woking area you must see this place, you will not regret it. It has everything that the other nurseries have, I found them all pretty similar really. The key difference is Noah's Ark at Woking is located in the countryside with a farmyard full of animals and a couple of acres of woodland set up for the kids such as trails and story times. This means the kids can be outside every day. This provides a wonderful experience for the kids which no other nursery in the area can offer. Our daughter loved attending this nursery. The staff were fantastic, particularly with the first couple of days which can be tough. Within a week our daughter would get her nursery bag each morning, weekends included and demand we took her there. We were sorry we had to pull her out as we were moving away from the area. Highly recommend.
The visits to the farm animals seem to happen most days and is a real highlight! He loves seeing the animals and chatting away about what he's seen.
Even though really challenging times recently, the staff are always positive, friendly and happy to spend plenty of time telling me about his day.
The staff always give such a friendly and positive welcome in the mornings at drop off.
My daughter loves the different activities they do every day inside and out and enjoys seeing the animals.
She has really grown in confidence and settled in really quickly and made some lovely friends.
I would highly recommend this nursery as a fantastic safe ans educational set up.
Thank you to the whole team.
We were recommended this nursery by family, and wow, we cannot rate this nursery enough to family and friends! The staff are just incredible and very knowledgeable. I was anxious with what nursery we chose being a first time Mummy and during a global pandemic, and could not be more happier with the choice we made. Our son settled very quickly with the attentiveness of the staff. He has come along leaps and bounds, from taking his first steps and saying his first words. The staff offer fantastic activities, and have an amazing outdoor play area. The staff keep us updated with pictures and updates throughout the day! He also loves the food, which is freshly made on site. If you are looking for a nursery, we would rate this the best in the area.
My son loves going to this nursery. The staff are extremely warm with the children. They provide a wonderful learning environment where children are encouraged to explore and be independent. They play outdoors whenever possible and have some excellent activities when indoors. I am reassured that my son gets a balanced diet. Overall I am extremely happy with the nursery - it makes it so much easier when you know your kid is in safe hands!
We are extremely happy with the care our son receives at Noah's Ark. His development, speech and social skills have come on in leaps and bounds since starting last year. The staff are attentive and caring and give him such a range of fun and educational activities. He has made some lovely friends and especially enjoys the outdoor facilities which are wonderful and varied. The woodland attached the nursery is a great bonus and ensures he gets lots of fresh air and outdoor activity. We would highly recommend the nursery and the team and we are so happy he is getting such a great start in life.
One of the things that attracted us to Noah's Ark nursery was the outdoor play in every season, the personal woodland and the animals. The bonus is the teachers, they are all invested in the kids that attend. From front office to back office even to the kitchen. Our child always returns with such joy and determination to learn more, we couldn't be happier.
Both my son and daughter have come to Noah's Ark and both loved it. My son's transition to school was seamless, owing to the skills and development from Noah's Ark and I can see that my daughter moving to school next year will be the same. The facilities are fantastic and my daughter always comments how much fun she has had whilst clearly learning all the time. The food they eat is much better than anything I have during the day and the staff incredibly friendly and skilled. Cannot thank enough for looking after my children.
This is an excellent nursery and after sending my two children here for 3 years I cannot recommend it highly enough. The nursery staff and cooks are friendly, caring, professional and above all, they clearly love the children! The facilities are unbeatable - the children have access to a huge play area, woods and farmyard. The level of teaching in pre-school is excellent and my son knew all of his letters and numbers before he left making the transition to school a breeze.
Plus the new app for parents is great, I feel a lot more in touch with his day now with the updates throughout the day.
I have already recommended to a friend!
My little boy started Noah’s Ark in Jan 2017! The staff made me feel very reassured about him starting and continued to do so over the past year. We love the outside space and how often the children get to use it. Love the animals on site and the woodlands. The communication between the nursery and parents is great and the activities the nursery offer are brilliant. Also, the new ParentZone app is great as I can keep up to date throughout the day on my little boys day. I would defiantly recommend Noah’s Ark.
