My son thoroughly enjoys his time at Windermere Day Nursery (Kettering). He has a great bond with the staff in his room, I'm os happy that I picked this nursery.
Windermere has been a supportive and encouraging environment for our daughter. She has progressed so much. Staff are very friendly and caring. She loves playing in the garden. Any incidents/queries are taken seriously and looked in to.
The care that my daughter received from the staff at the nursery has been amazing. We had so much confidence sending her to nursery even with a recent type 1 diabetes diagnosis. Given such a diagnosis, it would have been easy for the two practitioners to shy away from it but they embraced the learning of how to deal with it and learned a new skill for life. We are so grateful to them and we would have no hesitation sending our next daughter to Windermere. Thank you to everyone and if our next daughter has a keyworker like my daughter now we will be so pleased.
My husband and I like this nursery because of good knowledgeable informative staff. Also, we love that parents can track the child's learning and how their child progresses on the parent zone app. My only one down point is about difficulty parking my car, its lack of spaces. Overall it is a great nursery. We will continue with it for our next child.
Thank you for your review, I am pleased that your child is enjoying their time at our nursery. We apologise that you have difficulty with parking; we are currently looking into ways in which we can improve the parking at Windermere. We have recently introduced colleague parking cards to display in...
My daughter has attended Windermere for a year and a half now. She enrolled at a mere 9 months and has developed into a walking, talking, clever toddler under the care of the amazing staff. She starts her mornings early and spends time with a particular member of staff - who has cared for her from the start and they start every morning off with a cuddle and I go to work without worry. When I pick her up and hear about the meals she has had, I often joke that she gets better home cooking at nursery than with myself and her dad. I am genuinely pleased with every aspect of the nursery and have to drag her away at the end of the day. While the facilities, food, activities, and location are great - the key to Windermere's success is the staff.
The nursery has great members of staff who are always friendly. My daughter loves to come to nursery and has come on leaps and bounds since starting. All of the staff are always available and willing to listen to your queries and help in any way they can.
My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 6 months old. She was treating it as her second home. Staff always seemed extremely involved making everybody special with new ideas, games, learning through fun, reading books, telling stories, arranging special days... My daughter was feeling very welcome in a friendly, supportive, interesting environment with lots of toys. Her development was positively stimulated, she developed fantastic social skills, feels comfortable showing no problems, is comfortable solving problems, is cheerful, interested in reading and listening to stories. I appreciate hard work and very positive value given by the staff. Thank you.
On behalf of the family, we want to express our sincere gratitude to Windermere for the support, care and responsibility towards our son and brother. He will miss you all especially the three key workers who have cared for him since he joined Windermere. Thank you for everything and bless you.
It has been and always will be an outstanding nursery. The staff are always there to help with every situation.
Our daughter leaves nursery this month to start school. Windermere and all her staff have given her the best possible start on her formative years. We are so grateful to all the staff that have had a hand in nurturing and helping her develop into the person she is now. All keyworkers involved in her development have been exceptionally skilled and all are a credit to the nursery. Thank you.
This is truly an outstanding nursey. My little boy is so happy to come here.
The staff are kind and caring and my daughter loves coming to nursery.
My son has loved his time at Windermere Day Nursery (Kettering). The staff are so engaging and he has thrived. The facilities are fantastic and the food looks excellent.
Fantastic! Helped my son come on in leaps and bounds with extra support. Good prices!
I am very pleased with my kid at Windermere Day Nursery (Kettering), the staff are amazing and super. I didn't have a single doubt after my first son spent 2 years here to leaving my second son wasn't a worry at all and to say he started somewhere else but didn't fit in but when I moved him to Windermere Day Nursery (Kettering), he was perfectly fine.
If I were to have another child in the future will still book him or her to Windermere Day Nursery (Kettering) again. Thank you Windermere Day Nursery (Kettering) for your time, patience and care for my boys.
We, as parents, have been really happy with the services on offer and how our daughter has developed in the past 2 years.
Staff are very friendly. My child loves coming here.
I am extremely impressed with my son's progress and learning in pre-school 1. It has really excelled since joining the class. He enjoys coming to the nursery and looks forward to the activities. The team leader in the room puts a lot of thought and effort into activities for the children and it pays off because my son enjoys it so much. Thank you.
My daughter has been coming to Windermere since 11 months old. Since being here she has just thrived. Her personality has come out and she is always so happy. Her social skills are fantastic and she loves playing with the other children. Her development has been incredible since starting Windermere Nursery. I cannot recommend the nursery enough. It's fantastic!
Best nursery, best staff, and extremely clean, management staff are amazing, they are very strict with their policy but that makes them even better.

What is your favourite feature of Windermere?My favourite feature is the large and spacious garden which is quiet and calming with lots of areas for the children to explore. The nursery rooms are not only separated for the age groups but also have separate rooms within those areas, allowing lots of free flow for the children to aid us in creating fantastic, engaging, enabling environments.
I am most proud of the long-standing experienced team, that works together supporting each other and sharing ideas and knowledge of the children we care for to make sure each child experiences the best day every day. There is a good team spirit on the whole and a “want to achieve attitude”.
