My Daughter loves Zone and always enjoys the activities. I would recommend Zone to family and friends.
100% excellent - could not recommend more - and frequently do!
The learning opportunities at Zone4kids is exceptional, the girls love the outdoor provision and all the extras like seeing caterpillars turn to butterflies and little ducklings being born.
I am so pleased the girls have enjoyed Zone sine they were babies - Thank you all for being so amazing.
My son has been attending Zone4kids at Whitley Lodge since he was 2, he is now 6 and continues to attend twice a week for wrap around care. The care that has been shown to my son and us as parent's is exceptional. My son has special educational needs and the staff have been wonderful in meeting his needs and advocating for him when needed. We recieve regular updates on how my son has been, communication between Whitley Lodge and home has always been wonderful. I would reccomend Whitley Lodge to any parent, as parents we always feel at ease when our son is there as we know he is being cared for by staff who truly know and understand him.

Zoner4kids Whitley Lodge - I cannot rate highly enough. Every team member has/is kind, friendly, approachable and has a genuine and loving care for the children. I would not trust anyone like I do Z4K. My son loves coming every morning and sometimes doesn't want to come home.

My daughter started at Zone4kids Whitley Lodge at 13 months. She seemed to settle in really quickly. Her development has come such a long way and I believe being at Zone4kids has really given her confidence! The staff are so friendly and helpful - I love receiving updates on the app & getting a summary each day of what she's been up to. Thank you so much Zone4kids Whitley Lodge.
