- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

Thank you for taking time to complete this for our nursery, it's much valued and we appreciate your kind words. It's a pleasure having your daughter at our nursery.
This is an excellent nursery. I would definitely recommend any child go here. The staff make sure that they are attentive to my son's needs. Well organised, all of the staff are very friendly.

The Special Educational Needs program is excellent and has been both supportive of me and my son as we begin our pathway.
The staff and experiences, are friendly and knowledgeable and are always keen to speak to parents and carers and provide excellent communication throughout the day regarding how the children are.
Thank you once again.
Where do I begin, it's our son's second home. Everyone who runs the place is dedicated and would want nothing but the best for your child.

Where do I begin, it's our son's second home. Everyone who runs the place is dedicated and would want nothing but the best for your child. It would be quite difficult for our son to leave the nursery this year, as he will be starting school. It's probably the best one in the area because they are willing to put in that human touch and connection which is lacking in most of the other places. God bless.
Kind regards

All the staff members are extremely good with the children and compassionate.
Their observation and feedback regarding the growth of my child regularly are good. The way they welcome parents and interact with each child and family member that comes into the nursery is brilliant. They have favourite activities for each season and festival period including senior citizens week which involves the grandparent. Keep up the good work you have been doing. I wouldn't change my child's nursery. Thank you all for what you do.
Started in January and has excelled in learning and speech. Would highly recommend as staff support you and your child’s needs. They are warm and welcoming and have an app for you and staff to keep in contact.

Staff at West Street are ever so nice and professional. My son loves going to nursery every day and comes back home with a lot of excitement and wants to tell me all about it. The managers are also very helpful, and the kids love them.

Amazing nursery with such great, understanding and supportive staff. My son started when he was a baby and left just before he started school and he developed so well. He made a best friend for life and had so many amazing memories. Thank you so much. Highly recommended nursery for your little ones.

Our daughter attended West Street Nursery since she was 11 months old and has now left to begin her journey at primary school. She loved the setting, the staff, her friends and the fun activities and was always eager to attend each day. The staff are wonderful, supportive and friendly and are extremely attentive, calm and welcoming. The nursery manager is kind, approachable and professional. If you are in the local area, we can not recommend the nursery highly enough. The setting is clean, bright and warm and caters for young children - ticking all boxes. The nursery provides an app that you can track your child's day such as meals, accidents and photos of activities. West Street Nursery is fantastic! We are so grateful our daughter was able to experience great childcare/early education there. Thank you so much West Street Nursery, we will miss you.

I and my wife are so impressed with the help that my daughter had from all the team at West Street Nursery. She was so shy of other people, and now she is so confident in herself. The team at West Street Nursery are the best! Thank you very much, guys.

I have had my daughter attending West Street Nursery for over a year to date however my three older children went to West Street Nursery too. Firstly, all the staff are very professional and very organised - you always get regular updates about your child. All I can say is that my daughter always looks forward to going to nursery, to me, it signifies that my child is happy and that tells me that she’s being looked after there and she is in a safe place. I will always recommend West Street Nursery to family and friends because I have four children, three of them have passed through the nursery and my last child is there. All I know is it is a safe place for children.
Thank you for taking the time to review West Street Nursery, we appreciated your kind words which I do value as a manager. It has been a pleasure having all your children here at the nursery and thank you to you for all your continued support.
