Review from L H (Mother of Child) published on 13 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Amazing nursery. My son loves it there. Took him a while to settle but now he loves the place and the staff. He comes out so happy from nursery. Reading his book about what he's been doing and what he's eaten is nice to have as well. All the staff are very nice and are all so welcoming to me, my partner and my son.

Review from Z C (Father of Child) published on 13 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Great nursery with not just looking after the kids but also teaching them lots of great things.
The outside area is limited however when the weather allows they take kids to the forest nearby or to the local park.

Would recommend this nursery for any age category if you are considering this nursery for your child.

Review from Nate B (Father of Child) published on 20 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My two children have loved every minute of their time at Wizkidz Nursery. The staff takes good care of them and they get very well fed and come home happily tired out after each day. Nursery has been very good for their social skills in particular. They get plenty of time playing outdoors in the nursery garden and in the local park. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Wizkidz to any parent of under 5s.

Review from Kirsty M (Mother of Child) published on 3 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Could not recommend this nursery enough. I moved my son here in September 2020, the girls could not have been nicer and more accommodating regarding settling days and start days. The girls in the rooms are amazing and take such good care of the children. He always comes out telling me what fun he's had and how excited he is to go back.

This is lovely Kirsty, thank you so much and it means a lot! Much appreciated, Wizkidz Team.

Review from Sheree M (Mother of Child) published on 3 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Lovely family run nursery. Staff are all really friendly and supportive. I’ve also previously had experience working within the nursery and the children are always a priority and staff are very professional and caring. I would highly recommend and love the fact that there is lunch cover and staff are never out with their ratio of children. My daughter has gone to this nursery since she was one year old and loves it. Staff are very accommodating and meet my little one's needs.

Overall Experience

Wizkidz is a wonderful nursery and our child has enjoyed the time here immensely. All of our experiences with the staff through from baby room, junior room, preschool room and administration have been excellent and we feel that our child is given the highest level of care in a truly nurturing environment.

The nursery provides a safe, happy, stable environment to nurture developing minds and great activities for all peer groups, ages and stages. The building is clean, well maintained and accessible and always welcoming. Staff are always happy to help and talk through any questions and are attentive to the children.

Review from Mélanie M (Mother of Child) published on 29 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our little girl is very happy at nursery, she has met a lot of new friends. She is becoming very independent. We love that they take the kids out a lot to the park. We would love to hear more about what she is doing during the day - I think the app should be used more.

Review from Gail O (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This family-run nursery has made life easy for us. From day one the staff have been welcoming, caring, friendly towards my son. They look at his needs as an individual and support him in the best way possible. The nursery staff have made our experience an easy relaxed one and management have always responded quickly to any questions during covid when we haven’t been able to enter the nursery.

Review from Joanne D (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter loves her nursery days. She has such fun in the preschool room. The girls are all so caring and my daughter loves spending time with them all. She really enjoys the food which is always very varied and healthy. They have lots of outdoor play which she loves. Couldn't recommend Wizkidz Nursery enough. My son is very excited to start there soon too. My Sister's son started 6 months ago in the junior room and he loves it too.

Review from Jennifer G (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our little girl has been with Wizkidz Nursery for over 2 years now and it has been one of the best decisions to move her there. Wizkidz is a fantastic team and brings out the best in the kids. Our daughter had medical needs which the team have taken in their stride to learn about the condition and are always up to date with training from the Sick Kids which gives us lots of confidence in her being in the Wizkidz environment. We honestly would recommend Wizkidz to anyone. Our little girl now runs to get to the door of the nursery to see all her friends and play which is amazing. We cannot say thank you to the team enough for all they do.

Review from Leighanne F (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

From the day my son went into WizKidz, he was getting potty trained Wizkidz ie key workers, and all the other staff which has helped him remarkably with his toilet training giving him stickers, and certificates. He is now going to the toilet himself doing pees and poos all by himself. How they have supported him from then till now I can’t speak more highly of this nursery. They take them out to parks etc to do things with them, learn the things they need to learn. It's amazing that my oldest boy went there as well and he loved it. I highly recommended Wizkidz to anyone looking for childcare.

Review from Lauren W (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started going to Wizkids from around one year old and the staff in the baby room did a great job at making her feel comfortable with the initial transition. Since moving to the junior room my daughter again has always been made to feel very comfortable and absolutely loves all of the toys and the activities that are available within the nursery. The outdoor area is great and the staff occasionally take the kids to the park too. I have also been made aware of any small accidents which have happened and I feel the staff are always very honest during pick up. The menus and snacks are also very good as they have a large variety and change regularly.
