Over her time here, we have seen growth and improvement with her. The teachers have played a significant role in supporting and encouraging her every step of the way. They are approachable, attentive, and always willing to listen and provide updates, which has meant a great deal to us as parents.
The nursery creates a warm and positive atmosphere where children feel safe, happy, and excited to learn. The ambience is also bright and welcoming.
We truly appreciate the support, patience, kindness shown by the members of Staff of West House.

West House nursery is excellent. It has a very happy and positive atmosphere. My son attended for 3 years and was very settled from day one, he was always happy to go and was nurtured and made curious.
The staff are very professional and clearly have knowledge and experience. The manager would always support me in adding and changing days and times to help me return to work with peace of mind. Also I could change days per term which helped lots.
Communication was excellent, we had lots of feedback, photos and my son took part in lots of events. The fact the nursery children can access the school facilities as a whole is a huge benefit; the library/ playgrounds etc.
We didn't hesitate in sending him on to reception after his happy nursery years.
Thank you so much for this review of our Nursery. We take pride in our flexibility, allowing parents to change days termly, and offer the term time only sessions, plus wrap around care in the holidays. With the Nursery being on site, we now offer access to our amazing Forest School...
I can't speak highly enough about West House Nursery and the staff. My daughter is coming to the end of three years at West House and we're so grateful for the care and attention the staff have paid to her. She has really flourished under their guidance and I'd strongly recommend the setting for any parents who are keen for a personalised and attentive nursery for their child.
The staff have remained consistent and they've been good at communicating about my daughter's day-to-day activities. The staff seem to have all been there for a long time and I've enjoyed getting to know them over the years. It makes a difference to be greeted with a smile. I also like that they are a term time nursery with holiday club options (giving me flexibility and making it cheaper!)
The provision is first-rate and I'm pleased with the extra curricular activities (French, music and sport) they've recently brought in with specialist external providers. I'll be sending my son next year too!
