Every single member of staff is brilliant, my daughter is absolutely thriving there and she loves them all! Brilliant communication in person and via the app and very helpful especially as we are potty training at the moment.
Returning to work from maternity leave can be an emotional and challenging time for a parent. Finding the right childcare for my son was stressful, especially after another nursery had unfortunately declined to offer him a place. During this difficult period, the team at the nursery were incredibly supportive and understanding. The manager (Shaun) went above and beyond to help us. He took the time to listen to my concerns and made a real effort to ensure my son was able to have a space at the nursery. His kindness, empathy, and willingness to help truly made a huge difference to our family. Knowing that my child will be welcomed gives me the reassurance I need to return to work with peace of mind. The care and dedication shown by the staff have meant so much to us. We are incredibly grateful for the support we received at such an important time in our lives. Thank you for making what could have been a very stressful situation so much easier and for creating a warm welcoming for Isaac.
My daughter enjoys her time at nursery, even when shes not feeling her happy self she will always end the day happy.
As a first time mum this nursery has been fantastic and I couldn't thank them enough for what they do and the support they give!
I could not ask for a better setting for my children to and I feel comfortable, a home from home have built a good relationship with the car givers over the last 3 years and so have my childen, even after moving house with a nursery much closer we still choose Walcot nursey because we haven't found found one single nursery that slightly compares to the level and love and care that Walcot nursery gives
I was not sure if I was going to put my son in nursery but I am so glad I did, the staff are always friendly and have been so good for my son he's come out of him self so much thanks to all the support they have given us. They have helped with his needs and continue to help with ways to support him with everything such as speech and his confidence.
Most importantly, our two children are happy and have made great progress in their learning and development. We're grateful and would highly recommend this nursery.
It's the only nursery I would trust to care for my son.
10/10 in all areas.
My son is currently in the toddler room and always has such a fun time. We're always told stories on pick up of how much he's done in the day, how he's made them laugh and how he's doing with his development.
We recently went through a period of unsettled drop offs but the staff were so reassuring and calm with him, and suggested helpful ways to settle him down. He's now going into nursery happily!
We're so excited to see how he continues to grow and develop in their care until he goes to school in 2027.
From day 1 both my daughter and I have had a positive experience with Walcot Co op nursery. Staff are very attentive, caring and engaging.
Communication is brilliant with updates on the app showing how your child's day is going, what they've had to eat, nap times etc.
My daughter has learned so much since starting a few months ago and looks forward to her day at nursery. I'm sure she will continue to thrive in this setting. Highly recommended.
They've been incredibly accommodating to our child who's had a bit of trouble settling in and forgiving of us being pretty spread thin and disorganised while we were moving homes and mama started work again
My son has been going to this nursery for about 2 years now and the quality and care has always been excellent. I feel safe and happy having my son go to this nursery. I always enjoy talking to the staff and hearing about his day. The updates my wife and i receive through the portal are always welcome, and help us understand his progress.
My son has been attending this nursery for just under two years now. My son initially was not settling in as the environment was new for him and was meeting new faces. The staff here are very friendly and very supportive, they helped my son to settle in and kept him engaged. They are always hands on and support the child's needs. They engage the kids with new activities on a weekly basis and are always there to answer any questions. My son really enjoys his time at the nursery.
My son has had a lovely experience at the nursery. The staff are caring, supportive, and attentive, and he has grown in confidence, social skills, and independence. We are very happy with the nurturing environment and the progress he has made.
So we would like to say Thank you for the amazing care and guidance you've given to our children. And we always appreciate it. Please keep up all the good works.
My first son went here 8 years ago and started his school one of the cleverest and most confident in his class. When we were blessed with our second son a year ago we had no doubt that the Co-Op nursery at Walcot was the best place for him to go. He has settled in fairly quickly and I have seen both my sons grow with confidence that is largely down to the care and support they have received here. The staff are caring and support both parents and children through the challenges of illnesses, separation anxiety and help develop children's interests. At 15 months my son's vocabulary is growing rapidly and he runs, dances and loves to socialise with other kids and grown ups. A great place to start your little ones if you're returning to work.
The nursery staff are very welcoming. Everyone feels st home when at the nursery. My children have enjoyed their time at the nursery. The Christmas plays are always amazing and the staff work very well with the children for great performances.
Couldn't fault the nursery staff, they always go above and beyond for my daughter. She always comes home happy and has the best time. She is always learning new things and has consistently thrived since starting last August. Always thankful!
Excellent childcare with caring staff and a safe, welcoming environment. We are very happy with the childcare service. The staff are kind, professional, and truly care about the children. Communication with parents is clear and consistent, and the facilities are clean and well-organized.
More recently, council-funded 1:1 support was arranged, but the nursery didn't work collaboratively with the agency. When the agency withdrew, we were abruptly told they could no longer care for him - with no transition plan. After years in their care, this left us with no childcare, no respite, and I've to now suddenly stop working as a 'single' parent. I would not recommend this nursery to any family with a child who has additional need!
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, we can confirm that it has been shared with the relevant teams. This is being looked at as a priority and we will respond formally as soon as possible.
Few months ago i was stressed as my baby was not settling ,lacked confidence and always needed close support however i am relieved to see the transition and how much she has changed now.Amazing to see her play,eating well and learning so much that we are comforted that she is fine.I can be at ease while at work thinking she is looked after so well in the nursery by the amazing staff who i see have worked so much on my childs transition.thankful to each and every staff for every little contribution even a hug matters when these tiny tots are distressed..
