A fantastic nursery with wonderful staff who are warm, friendly and supportive. Both my children have, and are, developing very well here. I couldn't recommend a better place.

Excellent experience for my little girl. When we were looking for a nursery for our child, the first preference was quality and that brought us to Windermere. The mature learning my daughter received from Windermere will make her stand in front of any body else anywhere in the world. I would say excellent place, excellent staff, excellent learning and brilliant experience.
The Windermere was an extremely good and helpful nursery for all aspects of the child's development. The staff is very dedicated. It was a lovely experience in the nice environment. Kids loved to be there whenever they could.

Windermere is a fantastic nursery through and through, when my child started he was very clingy and would get very upset, the staff were brilliant and really helped him to settle. His needs were always met and he was taught so much and came such a long way, making his transition to big school a lot easier for him. I would give the nursery five stars and more, it's very welcoming, friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend the nursery to every parent I know and if I was to have anymore children I'd 100% use Windermere again.
Very happy with the standard of care given to my son in his time at Windermere.

My son has had an amazing two years at Windermere. He has great bonds with the staff and has learnt so much. Having a big computer screen in the room was fantastic and all the different theme days overall I am so happy.

This is just to express my gratitude and appreciation on how Windermere staff are contributing to my son's development. When I was unwell staff took it upon themselves to help my son to make a "get well" card for me. He also made a fathers day card for his father and we both appreciate all this....

When I was unwell staff took it upon themselves to help my son to make a "get well" card for me. He also made a fathers day card for his father and we both appreciate all this. Being away from him when I was ill was difficult, but to receive a card from him was marvellous and touching. The staff are doing a great job to our kids and also think about us as parents. Thank you very much.
My daughter enjoys the nursery so much. She talks fondly about all staff and is always happy to come. She has made great memories here. They eat a good variety of food and and are given fantastic learning experiences.

My experience of the nursery has been a very good one. My older child attended from when she was 11 months old until she left to go to school, my two year old attends now. The staff are all very kind, caring and my child is very happy.

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”.
