Windermere Day Nursery (Kettering)

I honestly cannot fault the nursery - each and every practitioner are so caring and considerate. They are extremely informative, which would put any parents mind at ease. My twins have been attending the nursery since sep 24. They are currently in butterflies, soon to be going into butterflies 2. We have currently undergone a few changes at home with regards to saying goodbye to the dummies, potty training and also removing crib sides. The girls have taken this in their stride and I believe the nursery has help contribute to this. Their practitioners are extremely proactive and help support to ensure continuity. They have also given myself lots of reassurance, tips and tricks which has very much been welcomed. I have no concerns when dropping the girls of as it is clear they have the best time, they are loved and cared for just as they would be at home, which is a massive weight off of our shoulders, there is no stress or anxiety on drop offs. Thank you guys for all that you do.

Personally, whoever is in charge of nutrition at head office needs to be fired, I bet it's also costing the company so much money.

Thank you!

I have recommended the nursery/preschool to other friends and family & my son will also be coming to. Thank you everyone.

Only downside is car parking, which can be very busy at pick up and drop off time, but understand is difficult due to hospital grounds surrounding.

Our children have been attending Windermere since 2019. I wouldn't want them to go anywhere else; the social and academic learning has been beyond what we ever expected. The staff over the years have been amazing, and we are sad that our children are now off to school.

Highly recommended.

Thank you.

We couldn't recommend the nursery enough; both daughters have been here and have flourished. All staff are amazing. Great facilities and food; we have nothing negative at all to say. We love the place! 10/10! :) x

We recently started our daughter at Windermere Nursery, and all the wonderful ladies have helped us settle our girl into the setting. They have been patient and attentive to her. The safety of the nursery builds my confidence that this is the right place, and we cannot thank you enough.

Very lovely, welcoming and chatty staff. They seem to have bonded well with my daughter and she seems to love the staff also. She makes them laugh and I can tell she's had a good day. However, I wish they clean the kinds noses more frequently as sometimes when I pick up my daughter, her nose is either runny or dried up with mucus. Really love the nursery and would highly recommend to others.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Windermere Nursery. The staff are kind, caring, and genuinely invested in the childrens happiness and development our son has grown so much in confidence and always comes home happy excited to tell us about his day. The nursery provided a safe and welcoming and fun environment were so grateful to everyone at Windermere Nursery and would highly recommend it to other familys also. Thank you for all you do!

Our son loves going to nursery, and he has made a great little group of friends. My husband and I are parents with no close family, villageless, one might say, and the staff at Windermere have become the village for our son. He is thriving and we will miss Windermere and the wonderful staff here when he starts school! We can't recommend this nursery highly enough.

It's been a fabulous nursery for both my children they thoroughly enjoyed their time there, they both made great relationships with staff in all their rooms, & throughout the nursery, it has been a great environment for them.

We love Windermere, my two children have been so happy there and couldn't recommend it enough. We have always found the staff so welcoming and have supported our children from the baby room all the way to pre school. My oldest has just started in Reception at school, and I think he has been so confident and adapted so well to school life due to the care and preparation provided by the nursery.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Windermere. Over the years, the team has played such an important role in helping our son grow, both in confidence and independence. From the very beginning, the staff have been warm, caring, and encouraging, creating a safe and nurturing environment where he has truly thrived.

We've watched him develop new skills, make wonderful friendships, and discover a real love for learning. The activities are always creative and engaging, and it's clear how much thought goes into supporting each child's individual needs and strengths.

Most importantly, the nursery has helped our son build the confidence and readiness he needs for the next chapter at school. We feel so grateful for the strong foundation they've given him, and we know he will carry these positive experiences with him as he moves forward.

Thank you to all the staff for your kindness, dedication, and support. You've made such a difference in his journey.

My daughter has just finished nursery as she has now started school but she had been at Windermere since she was 12 months old. She has always been fairly settled in each room. The staff are friendly & I'm always impressed that each staff member knows a child's name even if not currently in their own room. The toy areas are rotated regularly so the children don't get bored. The Pre school room prepared my daughter well for school, she is now settling in well at school but still misses her nursery teachers & friends. Thank you Windermere!

I can't find more words to describe my experience with this wonderful place which is looking after my little one making beautiful memories in the same time.

We had no doubts that our daughter would settle in well to this nursery as our eldest daughter attended and thrived. However, it is always an anxious time starting back at full time work with a 9 month old baby. A particular staff member and all the staff in the Caterpillar Room were absolutely fantastic and made the experience for me much less stressful during this transition. I know she loves nursery as she lunges to cuddle her teacher in the mornings and blows her kisses upon pick up! She is always eating nutritious food which gives me ideas at home as I know what she likes and dislikes and she sleeps very well which suggests she is very comfortable in her surroundings. The nursery manager is also an asset to the nursery. Thank you all.

I'll finish with what the boys last said, see you later stinkers... and thank you for everything!
