As a past nursery manager myself I really struggled to find somewhere that I felt was good enough to put my two twin girls. But after walking into Woodlands for the first time I received a warm welcome and such a homely friendly feel about the environment. The staff are amazing with the girls and are so lovely to chat too. All so happy and bubbly which I can report was not the case in many of my other nursery look-arounds. The girls have been attending Woodlands now since September 2024 and they love it and now get excited when they go in! Well done to all staff and thank you all for giving my girls such a lovely place to learn and thrive.
Thank you so much for the lovely review! We are all so pleased to have your girls join us, they are an absolute treat to have with us and we are so proud of how well they've settled and how their confidence is growing!
My daughter loved her nursery and still misses it now after 2 months of not being there. I always felt like she was safe and happy going into nursery which is all that you want/need when going to work. I loved the pictures and updates from nursery staff. My daughter loved the food provided, very balanced and a mixture of different foods. It was clear the nursery staff were hard workers and I always felt like they were good at showing they had a good day
Thank you so much for the kind words! We all miss your daughter so much, seeing her great big mischievous smile and cheekiness, not to mention how fearless she was. I'm sure she's absolutely loving school and doing great but she will always be such a big miss here at Woodlands. All the best for you and you family
The staff who work there are amazing - so positive and caring. My little boy had delayed speech and I have to credit Woodlands, particularly the staff, for all the extra support she gave him to help with his speech.
My children were 9 months and 2 years old when they started at Woodlands and from the moment we visited, I knew this was going to be their nursery. I love that they're encouraged to go exploring outside and to grow their own fruit and veg.
We're going to be very sad when it's time to start school as they'll miss the girls at Woodlands so much.
Thank you for all that you do for my children.
Thank you so much for the fantastic feedback! They are so loved in our setting and definitely made a lasting impression on all of the staff at Woodlands, and the progress they have made is just out of this world!! We would quite happily keep them forever!
I have never been happier with my son's nursery experience! From the moment we walk through the doors, my son is always greeted with a smile and a warm welcome from the incredible staff. The management team goes above and beyond to both the children and the parents and nothing is too big or too small for them to handle. My son has made amazing progress, especially with his social skills, and it's been wonderful to see his confidence grow. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone, as the staff truly care about your child's well-being and development.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback - I'll definitely pass this on to the staff as it means so much to us all. We are so proud of your child and the progress he has made so far, he is so confident, (developed a great social life at nursery!) and we love his cheeky nature.
I am so thankful to have found Woodlands Nursery for our little girl. She has been attending Woodlands since she was 9 months old and has truly thrived in their care. She is always coming home full of smiles and new skills. The staff are so passionate and attentive, and the environment is so nurturing and educational, with a lot of emphasis on outdoor learning. My little girl loves attending and has built such trusting relationships with staff, which is so reassuring for a parent to see.
Thank you so much for your feedback! We absolutely love having your child with us and witnessing her development come along so much, and getting to enjoy those cheeky smiles and laughs is such a privilege. We can't get enough of her!
We are so happy to have joined such a fantastic nursery! The staff is doing a great job looking after our children, developing their skills and attending to their needs. They communicate a lot with the parents and they genuinely care about the kids. The nursery is very well equipped with lots of indoor and outdoor space. My baby was 7 month old when joining and having a dedicated sleeping room was a prerequisite for me! Now he is loving the outdoor space and all of the toys and activities he gets to enjoy! Thank you Woodlands!
Thank you so much for the amazing feedback! We absolutely adore your little boy (as we make very clear!) and are so proud of how quickly he is developing! His cheeky smile has us all in a chokehold, and he definitely knows how to get what he wants from all of us grown-ups. We are so pleased to have you all as part of our Woodlands family.
Now, she goes in happily and has made excellent relationships with some long-standing members of staff and the new staff that they take on are obviously chosen well as she has quickly formed lovely relationships with those too.
The way Woodlands has allowed her confidence to grow, friendships to form and taught her new things, is something we will always be thankful for. The activities and meals provided are wonderful and staff always give an informative handover on pick up. Very grateful we found Woodlands!
Thank you so much for all of your kind words. We have loved having your little one with us and seeing her character flourish and confidence grow. She has a smile that absolutely lights up the room! We are very blessed to have such a lovely family with us!
We are so pleased to have found Woodlands. The nursery is such a special place, and my little one has loved it. The staff cares, they take time to really get to know your children and build learning and play around their interests. The nursery itself has a huge outdoor space which was important for us as our little boy loves to be outside. They have mud kitchens, water tables, vegetable beds and lots of active toys. He's really thriving in this nursery.
Thanks so much for your feedback! We are thrilled you and your little one are pleased with the environment and learning opportunities at Woodlands. Here's to many more adventures!
I am so thankful to the girls at Woodlands for all of their help settling my very anxious little girl. It's been hard for both of us but had to return to work and they really put my worries at ease. There's always loads to do and she loves the huge outdoors She now comes home with a big smile on her face, raves about the staff here and loves them so very much. She always looks forward to her nursery days! Couldn't be happier!
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback. It's been a pleasure welcoming you both to Woodlands, and we are so proud of the progress your little one is making!
