Westwards Nursery School

She LOVES her nursery workers - especially her key worker - and I'm so grateful at how well they've gotten to know her, given her confidence and taught her so many things. They always go with her interests, and build upon them. I enjoy how much they go for walks, and the variety of things they explore and play with. Thank you to the whole team!

My son is currently enrolled at Westwards and he is loving his time there! He even asks to go to nursery on a Sunday! The team has been very welcoming when we first moved to Loughborough and have helped my son settle in very quickly. They offer various activities for the children and take them on trips out which is great, helping them develop outside of the nursery environment too. I'm very happy with the level of care and the home from home setting the nursery provides and would highly recommend them.

Both our children have attended Westwards Nursery. My eldest attended from being a baby to starting school. They were excellent with him and identified his needs and worked with him on areas that needed it. My youngest has been in the baby room for nearly a year and loves it. She adores the practitioners, she has so much fun and is making friendships there. She loves it so much she often cries when she has to leave as she's having so much. They're an excellent nursery. The food is of a fantastic standard and quality, it's clean and the children and are enriched and genuinely cared about.

My son started in Feb 2026 in the baby room; they went above and beyond for both me and my son, Rupert. Staff are very friendly and always able to offer help and advice. He loves going, always smiling when he settles well with all the staff. There's always a variety of activities and interests for him.

Our daughter has been at Westwards for almost two years. The nursery is reasonably small, and staff turnover is very low. The team are lovely and have got to know her really well, show real interest in her progress, and are her biggest cheerleaders. They have been by our side for key milestones- developmentally; walking, talking and potty training and personally; with the arrival of a new sibling and the mixed emotions this brings. They have showed care and consideration throughout and we feel very comfortable that she is safe, happy and supported as she progresses through pre-school.

Our one year old began in Sunshine Room in April 2025, settling quickly. I felt supported as a mother sending a child to nursery for the first time. The practitioners in Sunshine Room have each shown an interest in our child's development. We feel they are known as an individual. Our child has struggled with a recurring ear infection for a substantial time and nursery have reported instances of discomfort and administered medicine without fuss.

Activities seem varied during the day. Being close to the town centre means they take advantage of the park. Nursery have also hosted a number of events which parents or grandparents have been invited to. The cosy, laid back setting, alongside kind and nurturing practitioners, is what has led to us signing up our second child to join Westward's.

Westwards have gone above and beyond for us since day 1. My son started in Sunshine room at 15 months and quickly settled in, now in Rainbow room he gets a great variety of activities and the staff are really good at focusing on his interests to build his development in all areas. All of this is communicated well through the app, and the staff tell us what they have been doing each day at pick up. My son always looks forward to going and has the biggest smile at the end of the day. I'm really happy we chose this nursery, I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Both of our sons, aged 3 and 4, have attended and continue to attend Westwards Nursery. We have firsthand experience with the Sunshine Room, Rainbow Room, and Pre-School, and we can confidently say that all three programs have offered our children remarkable experiences and a strong foundation in their early years. The boys are consistently exposed to a wide variety of enriching activities and adventures. The entire team is exceptional, consistently providing a nurturing environment filled with love and kindness. We feel extremely fortunate to have Westwards Nursery as part of our lives and are genuinely grateful for the positive, engaging, and supportive atmosphere they create for our children. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery.

Our son started Westwards in January and very quickly settled in thanks to the wonderful staff in the sunshine room who made him feel so welcome and helped him settle in. He's become so independent since starting nursery and learnt so many new skills already so thanks to everybody at westwards for making the start of the nursery journey so smooth x

Westwards Nursery is a lovely nursery with kind, caring and thoughtful staff. I always feel confident that our child is growing in a safe, enjoyable and nurturing environment. Lots of adventures and fresh quality food. Thanks Westwards!

My child has been attending since she was 9 months old, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The teachers are wonderful-genuinely caring and dedicated to the children's well-being. My daughter absolutely loves it and is always excited to go, eager to spend time with her teachers and friends.

She particularly enjoys the outdoor learning opportunities, from walks in the local park to trips to the market, coffee shops, museums, and forest school. The staff create a rich learning environment through play and hands-on activities, such as observing tadpoles grow into frogs, making every day both fun and educational.

They offer such a broad range of opportunities, from painting and cooking to forest school and bus trips to the park- incorporating socialisation, creativity, nurturing and fun! So many learning opportunities along the way, that most families would struggle to give their child every single day. Highly recommended nursery!

We are absolutely delighted with Westwards Nursery. Our son joined last year in the Sunshine room and since then he has developed so much thanks to the care and attention of the practitioners. They are very knowledgeable, kind, friendly and every day they organise activities for the little ones to get involved. I like the update at pick up to learn how my son's day was, and the entries on the app to learn about his development. The room is always very clean and has a lovely homey feeling.

Verbal communication is always very detailed and they are all just genuinely nice people.

I could not recommend Westwards more highly. Our little one settled so well and lives going to nursery. I can tell he feels completely at home, safe and happy there. The staff are experienced, kind and genuine they take care of the children as if they were their own and, for that, we couldn't be more grateful. Lots of lovely activities and good food, and very good communication with parents too on a daily basis.

Our daughter absolutely loves the nursery - she is so fond of all of the nursery staff. She settled in so much quicker than I thought she would and she is excited to go every day. They do a fantastic array of food and the activities are creative, sensory and out daughter has so much fun! Since going, she has become more confident and her social skills have come on leaps and bounds.

My son recently joined Westwards Nursery and he absolutely loves it. He is so excited to go in each morning and so comfortable and confident with all the staff in the Sunshine room. The sharing of information about what he has done, eaten and explored is lovely and I really enjoy the photos that are shared with me. He is flourishing in this environment and I am so grateful to all the staff involved at Westwards. Thank you all so much!

I am so thrilled my son is attending Westwards. It's his second month and they've helped him to settle in so well, they care for him as if he were their own little one. Everyone is so kind and always has a smile and my son is so excited to attend every day. They keep me updated on all his activities and what he's been doing.

Excellent Nursery. Caring staff and fun too. We changed to this nursery from another local nursery. My child took time settling in, but the staff were great helping. Great outdoor garden. Lots of activities for toddlers. Help with potty training- good facilities. Good management team.

I couldn't recommend Westwards more highly. Outstanding experienced and genuinely caring staff who you can trust to look after and nurture your little ones. Also they do loads of activities with the children and the outdoor area is great even though you can't see it from the front. We love Westwards and will be sad when our children have to leave to go to school!
