Westwards Nursery School

My older child has attended Westwards Nursery School since he was a baby and is about to leave to go to school. His younger sister is now in the baby room. I chose Westwards within a few minutes of walking into the building. The gentle care that the staff clearly showed towards the children was immediately evident and the environment was calm and nurturing. From sensory play, music, local trips, activities focused on the children's interests, forest school and outdoor provision, and recently school transition, Westwards has given my children the best start. They both love attending and my older child speaks enthusiastically about the things he has been doing at nursery. All the staff know and genuinely care for the children and have come to feel like an extension of our family.

Westwards Nursery School is a fabulous nursery, we looked around a few and they ticked all of the boxes. The staff are friendly, always approachable and give informative handovers at the end of the day. The children gets lots of outdoor time and experiences at forest school when older. My child comes home and zonks everyday after collection for an hour. The food there is of really good standards always something different on offer, seconds and sometimes thirds go down well.

Westwards Nursery School is a brilliant nursery, with a creative and supportive approach that fosters a strong learning and fun environment for children. The staff are engaging and helpful and we are incredibly grateful for the start you have given our daughter on her path into school life.

Couldn’t recommend Westwards Nursery enough. Every member of staff is so kind, gentle and understanding towards every child’s needs. There’s such a lovely feel as soon as you enter Westwards and you know they’re in safe hands. They are so generous in all they do for the children and go above and beyond to arrange special trips out of the nursery, summer parties, forest school and trips to the park, to name a few. The food they provide for the children is also fantastic. Healthy, nourishing food and such care and attention invested in creating delicious, varied menus every week. Having visited and tried other nurseries, none compare to Westwards.

We are delighted with the service Westwards nursery provides for our children. The staff are fantastic, the children are always busy doing lots of different activities and our children are always very happy when we pick them up. The food they provide is fantastic and they put a lot of effort into changing their menu weekly. We love the fun, friendly and caring atmosphere Westwards provides.

Absolutely outstanding care provided. My daughter is so settled and at home at Westwards! The staff go above and beyond. The nursery communicate extremely well with family. A wide range of activities is available for children and lots of engaging trips into the local community.

My son has been at Westwards Nursery School for almost 2 years. He has been happy every day going to nursery and we know that he is well taken care of each and every day. The food is great and very well balanced, the staff are kind and so affectionate. I couldn't rate it highly enough.

I have had 3 children in this nursery and still currently have 2 at this nursery. Having previously been at a much larger nursery with arguably more facilities, I would choose Westwards Nursery School over that one without a doubt. The care has been excellent and the staff turnover minimal - it is obvious to me that the staff are very happy there. Happy staff equals happy children. The staff are very warm and friendly and seem to genuinely care. My children have always come home very happy and fulfilled and I have never had any doubt that they are being looked after so well. I couldn’t recommend Westwards Nursery School more. I’ll be so sad when the youngest leaves.
