Windmill Hill Day Nursery (Swindon)

We have always been pleased with the variety of food provided for both our daughters. We also feel that our eldest daughter has been well prepared for school and she will miss the staff when she leaves as she has developed some positive relationships.

We love Windmill Hill, our son has been here since he was 1 and will be leaving in September to go to school. The nursery staff are lovely and really care about your child, they provide detailed handovers at pick up and really bond with the children. They are always doing different activities and have interesting new toys to play with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Windmill Hill to anyone and will be sad for my son to leave!

My son has attended Windmill Hill Nursery for two years and I can honestly say the staff here are fantastic. It is a wonderful kind, caring nursery that goes 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. I can’t recommend Windmill Hill enough!

Communication from the nursery has always been amazing and we have excellent personal daily handovers when I collect.

My son has been attending Windmill Hill Day Nursery for almost 7 months now. I was very apprehensive at first, as my son didn't have much experience with larger groups of children, or adults that he didn't know, however, the nursery has been very good with their communication and putting my concerns to rest. My son now loves his time there, and I really enjoy the app function that allows me to see his progress.

Our daughter started Windmill Nursery in January 2024 and from day one the staff were very welcoming to both us as parents and to our little girl . The staff and facilities are very impressive and provide a range of activities on a daily basis. Since joining the nursery our daughter has continued to strive in development and her confidence levels have grown. As a parent knowing our little girl is happy and content in the nursery environment is comforting. Choosing Windmill Nursery was 100% the right decision.

I feel we have great interaction with the nursery as a parent, always feel informed and opportunities to ask questions are always there. Great focus on bringing families together through optional events. Fantastic activities for children with attention to children’s interests considered along with great support on building confidence for children. Always appreciate the fantastic menu for the children too, lots of meals have been loved.

Our daughter has just moved to Windmill Hill from a different nursery and we have been very impressed by both the staff and facilities. The free access to the garden every day is a great feature, and we love that our daughter is encouraged to enjoy her own interests within the room. The staff have all been very welcoming to her and us and she has settled really quickly as a result. It’s also been much easier to sort out the administration than in the previous setting thanks to an efficient and visible team. We are very pleased to have moved.

Thank you Windmill Hill and team.

I have been lucky enough to have 2 of my 3 children attend Windmill Hill. The nursery has been everything you would want and I felt more than comfortable leaving my children there from the age of 6 months. The staff are all very friendly from when you walk in the door to the drop off in the room. The online updates are great and the little touches of gifts on Father’s Day, Mother’s Day and Christmas etc are so thoughtful. My eldest daughter started school this year and she was so prepared and settled in brilliantly thanks to the preparation by the pre-school teachers. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

She has gained so much confidence since being at Windmill Hill. Unfortunately due to us relocating she will be leaving soon. I really don’t know how any other nursery is going to live up to it!

Both our boys had a great time at Windmill Hill and the staff have been brilliant in helping them settle in and also with their development. The team made us feel comfortable when our eldest started given his health complications by completing the required medical training and it never seemed an issue to provide the extra care he needed. Whenever we have had an issue they were addressed appropriately by management to help find a resolution. We would recommend Windmill Hill to anyone as overall the team do a fantastic job and we’re glad our boys went here.

I have 6 children and have experienced many different nursery's. Windmill hill stands out above all, it really is all round amazing. My daughter was extremely anxious to start nursery but settled quickly with the help of friendly staff and plenty of fun and educational things to do. Parents are constantly kept up to date with the progress of child and what they have been up to. My daughter will really miss this nursery, she has come on leaps and bounds since she started.

This nursery has been absolutely fantastic for my children, both my boys have now been to Windmill and I cannot fault it. The care they give to the children is something you can only hope for when leaving them with others! They go above and beyond to make sure the child is happy and well looked after. Great activity variation and my son always comes home with some fab arts and crafts!

I cannot fault this nursery at all.

My son has attended this nursery for the last 2 years. We have had fantastic experiences in all rooms and the staff have really helped develop my son's skills, speaking etc. It has such a relaxed homely feel yet still being professional and following all government guidelines. It is apparent that the child's needs are put first and listened to. It's hard to be apart from your child but they make you feel at ease that they are being well looked after.

Our daughter has had a wonderful 3 years at Windmill Hill, all the practitioners have gone above and beyond to make sure she was happy and had great learning opportunities within her play, even having outside companies to come in. The food menu is amazing and is changed to accommodate her preferences while still having all the nutrients.

We can’t thank Windmill Hill enough for all they have done.

We moved to the area in February and the nursery were great in supporting us in our move and to help our son settle in. In his 8 months at the nursery his confidence has grown and he has developed so much. On every collection I have always been made to feel that every worker cares for our son and picking him up and seeing him interact with his new friends has been the best part of my days. Thank you Windmill Hill!

I couldn't recommend this nursery enough. It is apparent that what they care about the most is children's wellbeing. The staff is willing to go the extra mile for every child. They helped us feel supported every step of the way and always offered a friendly advice. Our eldest loved the atmosphere and always looked forward to going to nursery. He's graduated now, but his sister will continue attending. This is the best start in education our children could've possibly had and we will always remain grateful for the staff's hard work in achieving this.

The decision we made to choose this nursery was the right one. Our child was really attached to us, and because of Covid time, there was no other social connection. It was just the two of us in his world. We were concerned about how he would adjust to life without seeing us. Fortunately, we were given some time during his settling-in sessions, and we gradually left. He began to enjoy the nursery. We feel more at ease because the phone app receives regular updates on how he is doing at nursery. The staff is really understanding and helpful. His social skills and communication greatly improved. He made pals there and discovered how to go longer than five hours without running into us. Huge thanks to the nursery team for taking care of our child and providing him the best place to grow.
