Wollaton House Day Nursery

I can't say enough great things about Wollaton House Day Nursery. Our little girl has absolutely flourished since she started attending. She was already a confident and independent child but now even more so and she just loves the days when she gets to go and play at nursery. The staff are always warm, welcoming and there to talk to whenever you need to discuss anything. We were concerned that her speech wasn't developing and Wollaton House Day Nursery were so supportive with practical and tangible advice to support her development and also us as overly concerned parents!

I visited many nurseries before Wollaton House Day Nursery but as soon as I walked through the door I knew it was the one for my daughter. A warm homely feel, lovely staff and the feeling that the children were at the forefront of everything and I was definitely right. My daughter absolutely loves her time at nursery, the staff are so caring and lovely and I’m pretty sure if my little one was older she would talk about it non stop! They not only make my daughter happy but make me happy knowing how safe and well cared for she is.

This is the first nursery our daughter has attended. We felt a little anxious initially as our daughter (20 months) had been very clingy post lockdown. But I was shown around the nursery and was given a very thorough insight into how the nursery typically runs and felt a great sense of relief, our daughter does still get upset when dropped off but due to the nursery staffs experience, professionalism and dedication this is getting less with each visit. She is coming on leaps and bounds and we have Wollaton House Day Nursery partly to thank for that.

We worked together and I would recommend them to all.

We can only express our complete gratitude and thanks to all of the team that work here, and we would not hesitate to recommend this nursery.

Staff are super friendly and the pre-school program is excellent. We have just started with Wollaton house in the midst of Covid-19, and all the safeguarding for the children is excellent. I've got a super curious, high-energetic toddler really enjoying her days at Wollaton House.

Our son has absolutely loved every minute there, and we are sad that his time here will be ended soon to go to ‘big school’. Fortunately, our time with Wollaton House isn’t over yet, as our 8-month-old daughter is about to start in September. Already the love that they show towards her when we collect her brother is amazing! We cannot wait for her to be cared for by the whole team and we know she will love it and them as much we already do.

The manager and the staff have been great in helping us to deal with any issues that we've had and their experience really shines through. They are all really friendly and always have me set up (usually laughing) for going into a day of work, knowing that my children are going to be well cared for. They are truly going to be missed!

Trying to write a review to express the amount of happiness that my son has experienced over the 4 years that he has spent here is nigh on impossible so I will try and keep it simple. The manager and her team have decades of experience, if you have questions they have answers. They will support and encourage your child from day one until the day they leave for primary school. My son loves it here and I know they genuinely love him because Wollaton House isn’t just a nursery, it’s a big family that you just haven’t met yet.

Most importantly, when I leave my daughter I have complete trust that she is safe and well cared for. When we drop her off in the morning she grins and reaches for the manager.

We highly recommend it, it is just wonderful.

As a first-time mum I felt a little apprehensive about my 9-month-old son starting nursery. From my first visit to my first day, the team at the nursery put me at ease. I now enjoy reading his daily report, reading about his skills developing, what he likes to play with and his 'messy play' activity. I already have a lovely collection of craft activities and it is great to hear he is eating well and taking long naps. My son's communication skills and motor skills are really coming along thanks to nursery. I know he is being looked after and that makes the 'mum guilt' of going back to work much easier. Highly recommend.

As a new father, the experience of taking my son to nursery is very pleasant, with the staff always eager to help. There's always a big smile at the door to welcome my son to nursery, which makes leaving him a lot easier, as I know he's in safe hands.

Wollaton House Day Nursery not only cares for your children 8 - 6, they take a vested interest in their present lives and their futures, promoting confidence, kindness, good manors alongside all of the physical and educational activities. The time is coming near for my youngest daughter to fledged the nest, course set for school, and not only will she be sad to leave, it will be a sad day for myself and wife too. This nursery is a big part of our lives, the staff feel like family, they will all be sorely missed.

Since our son started going to nursery three days a week from November 2019, he is already showing signs of becoming more socially confident. We feel with the care and teaching from the staff at Wollaton House has encouraged his development. We are so happy he has settled so well into nursery life. The homely feel, the kindness and professionalism of the staff is why I think he has settled.

We are extremely happy with the care that we received for both of our children in Wollaton House Day Nursery. The manager and her team have done a good job in particular on preparing my son for Reception year. Our children are always looking forward and happy to go there.

He has always eaten well and had healthy wholesome meals homemade. Has managed to have a good nap in the day so is rested and sleeps well at night. The staff are great to talk to and have so much experience and give really helpful advice to me as a first-time mum. I cannot recommend Wollaton House enough.

Nursery has been a loving and kind experience for my daughter. We received the best care and it was like sending our daughter to a family members house. Our daughter left nursery as a confident, loved and clever little girl. At times it was difficult managing our parent anxiety but upon reflection, the nursery really helped us overcome this by being firm, at times it was difficult managing how firm they were, but in the long run it was beneficial.

Our experience of the nursery has been fantastic. The staff and management are excellent at what they do. The nursery provides a safe environment for kids and prides itself for its effective learning and development. Since joining the nursery, my son has improved socially and academically. He is able to read and write independently. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone considering it.

My daughter has learned so much and developed into a confident, happy and independent child. Although she leaves nursery to start school this September, we are confident that we have given her one of the best starts to life.
