Review from Julija V (Mother of Child) published on 21 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My 2 years old daughter just started the nursery, for the first time in September, and that was the best decision to start exactly with the Woodstock Day Nursery. Very warm welcome and friendly atmosphere, everything is settled for the kids, to enjoy, explore and develop. The staff is very supportive and very helpful. I was provided with all information. They are very supportive in terms of flexibility with the hours, for which I’m very glad and thankful! My daughter absolutely loves to go there, and her key worker is her best friend now.

I’m very happy that we made the right choice, as the nursery is the first and quite important step in a child's development.

Reply from Anne Shrieves, Manager at Woodstock Day Nursery

We are so glad that your daughter has settled so easily and happily at Woodstock Day Nursery, we love having you all as part of our nursery family.

Overall Experience

Our son was at a previous nursery before Woodstock and it was the best thing we have done. He is so happy there, always excited to go. The staff have been so very welcoming and really put us at ease in this transition for our son. The facilities and outdoor space are wonderful and they have everything he could need. The care is what you would want as a parent. A home from home. We are extremely happy with their services and feel lucky to have got him a position there. Thank you Woodstock.

Review from J S (Mother of Child) published on 20 September 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Our daughter has reached the point of ending her time at Woodstock in preparation for starting school. The most impressive and pivotal time there, as preparations for a new routine, the challenges of change and the unknown and new people have all been fully acknowledged, openly addressed and personally welcomed by all the staff. This has given our daughter the freedom, safety and skill - facilitated by Woodstock - to express her feelings, work through changes and build resilience and confidence in starting school.
The Woodstock leavers play was moving, funny, inclusive of all the children and primarily positive in saying farewell. They ensured this has all been individual, child-led, family-supportive and without these skills and expertise, we'd feel ill-prepared indeed.

Incredible groundwork we'll always remember, reflected in the happiness of our daughter in her new chapter.

Review from Chris G (Father of Child) published on 6 August 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Woodstock has been an excellent nursery for my daughter who started there aged 9 months old.
She has loved her time at Woodstock and has benefited from the excellent learning opportunities on offer and the social interaction, stimulation of both her peers and the fabulous staff.
She has enjoyed her time in the garden, free-flowing with the other age groups and street dance!
She loves her food and that which is provided by Woodstock has taken some beating to replicate at home on occasion!

Due to start school in September, she will be sad to leave Woodstock, however, she has been given an amazing start to launch from.

Overall Experience

My son has attended this nursery for nearly four years despite a difficult start for him and he has developed massively during his time here. He is social, polite, interested in the world, the nursery and staff have contributed enormously to this. We have friends children here on our recommendation.

My child has been at the nursery a little over a year and has come on leaps and bounds. She has progressed so much in this time and I can only accredit this to the wonderful work that all the ladies and gents do at this nursery. I couldn't praise this nursery enough.

Overall Experience

I really like the nursery and the staff. I have never seen a single day that myself and my daughter have not been greeted without a smile. Staff are nice and approachable. My daughter cries when I drop her every day but the staff (all of them) are so keen to make her happy and keep her occupied. It's a peace of mind when I run for a busy day at work.

We have two children currently at the nursery and they both enjoy it hugely. They have really developed and there are many things they enjoy doing. The creative side is particularly good and they enjoy the support they have for Art.

Overall Experience

My son started in Jan this year and although he still cries every time we drop him (he only does 2 mornings a week), we know he has an excellent time when he is here and the level of care and learning is absolutely fantastic. He loves the garden and all the different activities and he is always laughing and smiling when we pick him up.

I can't rate Woodstock Nursery enough! I have two boys that go there and nothing is too much! the best part for me is no matter the weather if the children want to go out on an adventure in the garden, they can! Also, best parents evenings ever!

My daughter loves coming to Woodstock Day Nursery. Over the past 3 years, she has grown in confidence and is always talking about what a great time she has had with her friends. The staff are all lovely and everybody knows all of the children, which gives the nursery a really homely feel.

Excellent nursery, my daughter has thrived here in all areas and absolutely adores coming in, we never have any resistance as she is always SO excited to come and see her friends and all the 'grown-ups'! Staff are amazing - nurturing, communicative and approachable. Nursery is always filled with a lovely warm busy and 'safe' atmosphere, and the children are cared for to the highest of standards. We love it here!

Anne Shrieves Job Title: Owner/Director, Early Years Teacher Joined: 2000
Anne Shrieves

After a career in the NHS and having my own children, I opened my first Day Nursery in 1996 for 24 children. The business grew to 3 Day Nurseries, 3 Out of school clubs and a Pre-school until in 2006 everything was sold except for Woodstock Day Nursery and I am now able to enjoy working alongside the staff team and the children on a daily basis – semi-retirement and loving it!

During this time I have qualified as a Nursery Nurse (0 to 5 years) and a Play Leader (5 to 14 years), has completed a BA in Early Years and am now a qualified Early Years Teacher (EYT).

On a personal note, I have 3 sons and two step-sons who are now all over 18 years of age plus 5 grandchildren... So far.

I have been working in child care since 2000. I have a BA(Hons) in Childhood studies which I completed at University College Chichester in 2002. In 2008 I returned to University this time in Brighton to complete my Early Years Profession status.

In my spare time, I enjoy classic cars and spend the summer months taking my classic car to various shows. I also enjoy cross stitch and sewing and will often make things for family and friends.

I have been at Woodstock since 2013 and continue to enjoy the fun and sometimes challenge of each day with our children. I gained my EYT status in 2022 along with also being promoted to Manager.

I have 2 lovely daughters and like to spend time with them when I am not at work.
