Co-op Childcare Walcot

My child loves going to this nursery. They are very helpful and very supportive and I see zo much progress with my child, with their great work. All the staff are very welcoming and cheerful. Best place for your child to start his first steps into learning.

I would recommend this nursery.

The best staff! The team in the pre-school room are fantastic and always helpful. My son has the best time being here. I know my son is well looked after and safe while he's at nursery.

I would highly recommend this nursery.

My little boy has also made a few friends already which is brilliant.

As a more general comment, it's obvious that our daughter loves being at nursery, which is in no small part due to the staff. Her eating has really come on and its been very helpful to see what she eats and when each day through the app. Not only is she excited to go because she's enjoying herself, but when she comes home it's obvious that she's learned new skills. Her fine motor skills and communication have come on leaps and bounds and we're generally just very happy with our choice of nursery.

We are very pleased with Co-op Childcare Walcot. The staff are kind, attentive, and professional, creating a warm and welcoming environment for the children. Our son has made wonderful progress and always looks forward to attending. The activities are engaging, and the nursery provides a balance of play and learning. We feel confident knowing he is in a safe and nurturing space that fosters his development. Thank you to the amazing team for all your hard work!

Thank you.

The nursery has been a fantastic experience for us, our son is thriving in all areas and learning so many things. I think it's especially great that even when the staff don't know that there are parents around, I can hear them singing and talking to the children, they don't just put a show on, they're like that all the time for the children; it's incredible.

A fun environment for learning too for my little one.

My little boy has been here since he was 11 months old. It’s a wonderful kind, caring nursery that go above and beyond. There is a huge sense of community and they really know how to encourage development through hobbies and interests of the children. Parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in regular ‘open’ activities. Communication is great and they really recognise when a child may need a little extra support. I can’t recommend Little Pioneers Walcot enough.

Thank you to all the staff that work so hard.

My son has attended this nursery for nearly two years, and I can honestly say the staff here are fantastic and really have become another family to us. Staff are so supportive and will always go out of their way to help with anything they can. My son has thrived in a warm, welcoming and nurturing environment. The facilities are brilliant, with free-flow rooms with access to large outside spaces, a vegetable patch for the children to explore, and lots of toys and books, and the staff work hard to set up engaging activities every day. Parents are kept in the loop with what the children have been doing throughout the day. Staff get to know children on an individual basis, and all in all, provide them with a fantastic start within their early years. My son will be heading to school next year, and we will be sad to leave the nursery, but they really have set my son up with all the skills and confidence he needs to make the transition to school with ease.

My twins joined this nursery in October 2023. They were just under 6 months old, having been born 10 weeks premature. Choosing the right place for them to learn and grow was very important to us and we toured a number of places. My husband and I both instantly agreed that this was the right place after our initial visit. Nearly 2 months into their time there and we are thrilled with our decision. The team are so sweet and affectionate with our girls. We love feeling 100% satisfied that our girls will be well cared for and they love their time there.

Best nursery my child could’ve had. Extremely understanding and caring staff. Plenty of toy choices for play and learning. Well managed classroom and daily activities. Clean spaces for children. Good communication by nursery staff on a daily basis. Nursery staff ensured smooth transition of my child from nursery to school. Definitely recommended nursery in the area.

My daughter has been at the nursery since 10 months old. She is now getting ready to leave and start school. We have been so lucky to have found a nursery my daughter loves going to and we have felt comfortable leaving her. Everyday is different and she never comes out bored. The nursery staff have gone above and beyond to create development plans and get my daughter ready for starting school. We will miss the nursery, staff and children when we leave, they have been amazing helping us as parents and my daughter with any challenges we have come across during every stage from baby to toddler to pre-school.

All four of my children have attended this nursery over the last twelve years and I honestly would not want them to go anywhere else. The staff are all so friendly and helpful. Communication is always brilliant and I’m always kept up to date with any concerns, accidents or illness during the days my children are in. Staff are always happy to answer any questions I have. The nursery itself is always clean and tidy, and the children have lots of equipment, toys and open space to play. My children particularly like the outside space and playing in the garden. I always recommend this nursery to anyone that is looking for childcare.

Lots of things are always set out for them to do.

Month after month the staff at Walcot Nursery have provided support, kindness and teachable moments to our child and us as first-time parents. Providing us with insightful feedback and keeping us up to date on changes in sleep patterns, appetite, behaviour and education. Our child loves going to nursery and we feel confident, comfortable and reassured leaving her with the wonderful team.

I have just dropped my daughter off for her final session at Walcot Co-op Childcare Day Nursery having been attending there since she was 11 months old. I cannot speak highly enough of the experience she has had whilst being there. The staff are friendly, caring, kind and fun and have supported my daughter with her physical skills which she struggled with slightly and all other aspects of her development. She enjoys telling me of all the fun things they have done and the nice food she has eaten (often with seconds!). The staff managed so well to keep a calm and welcoming environment even with all of the stress and uncertainty of the pandemic and this was a great support system to us during that difficult time. The communication is great, both face to face, via the app and in the regular keyworker feedback sessions and I feel like all of the staff know my daughter well and care for her. I would highly recommend this setting and thank all the team there for a great experience.
