Woodentots Montessori Nature Babies

Our daughter has gone to WT since September and it has been an excellent experience. She settled quickly and absolutely loves going and talks at home about how much she likes the staff and the other kids. The manager (Patty) is a calm and confident presence and I can understand why the children are so fond of her. In our time at the nursery there has been very little attrition which is what has helped with our child in settling so quickly (under a week). The staff are all so kind and caring and know each of the children and their individual personalities.

We like the site - it is small compared to other local nurseries but that is something that appealed to us. We also love that the children spend time outdoors each day in an enclosed allotment where they can engage in exploration and messy play. We are very happy with our choice and appreciate the excellent team caring for our child.

I honestly can't thank them enough for making my transition back into working so smooth and happy, knowing my son is having such a fulfilling and happy experience each day. They work so hard and always do the best for the kids. I honestly couldn't imagine a better environment to grow up in - 10/10

My son Has been with Woodentots for 8 months now and we are absolutely delighted and astounded by what a lovely, caring and nurturing nursery it is. Patty it is reassuring, caring and kind and highly professional- my son absolutely adores her. The entire team are so joyous and give such a lovely energy to the children. The children are engaged in wonderful activities, are taken out in nature and also enjoy Spanish lessons. My son is so happy there and often tells us what a lovely day he has had with the team. The communication with parents is fantastic and we feel so supported and that our son is very well looked after

Woodentots has been an absolutely wonderful experience for our family. The level of care, attention, and genuine love shown to my child is truly outstanding. From day one, it's been clear that the team deeply understands and follows the Montessori philosophy - not just in name, but in every detail of how they nurture the children. The environment at Woodentots is calm, inspiring, and beautifully designed to encourage independence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning. My child has grown so much in confidence and creativity since joining, and it's been amazing to watch them explore and learn so joyfully. The staff are exceptional - warm, patient, and incredibly dedicated. They take the time to know each child individually and create such a safe, loving atmosphere. It genuinely feels like a community where children are respected, supported, and celebrated every day. Woodentots truly embodies the Montessori ideals to perfection and offers the most nurturing start a child could ha

All the staff are brilliant - so warm, caring and fun - and Nieve adores every one of them. We especially want to mention Patty, the manager, who is just incredible! She always goes above and beyond to make Woodentots such a happy, creative place. You can really see how much effort she puts into planning fun, engaging activities for the children every day. The nursery overall is always incredibly calm and a really warm and happy feeling when you walk in. We couldn't be more grateful for the love and care Nieve gets - I can't recommend this nursery highly enough, there's a lot of talented and caring staff here and it's paying off, with such happy babies. Thank you Woodentots

Little man seems very happy at nursery - it's small enough that it has a very cosy, homely feel and each child gets personalised attention. Staff are so caring towards the children and very supportive and communicative with us. Things to be aware of - they don't have a garden next to the main nursery but at least my little one likes the buggy ride to go out to the garden. The food is all veg and much more varied than what we can offer at home which is great but we do give him more animal protein on weekend meals! Overall would highly recommend.

Woodentots Montessori Nature Babies nursery has been our second home since 2022, when my eldest started with them. They have been very naturally caring, organically loving to my babies. That was the main reason I chose to send my second baby there, too. Even though we live far now, I take all the hassle to bring my baby there. They are very professional as well as open to comments and communication. My babies learned to be independent and confident little humans in everything they do from a very young age, and that shows they do their job at the maximum level of success. I love WMNB and all the members of staff working there. I can't thank them enough for their love and for being our second home!

We are absolutely delighted with this nursery - it truly feels like a home for both the children and their families. The atmosphere is warm, nurturing, and full of joy. Patty, the manager, is simply outstanding and makes a real difference every single day. She leads a wonderful team of teachers who are kind, dedicated, and genuinely attentive to the needs of every child. What we love most is the nursery's outdoor focus: daily walks, Forest School twice a week for the older children, and a strong commitment to sustainability and respect for nature. It's a beautiful way for the children to grow up valuing and caring for the environment. Our daughter is incredibly happy here - and so are we!

Lovely nursery, with a super caring and kind manager and team. My child is so happy and excited at drop off, and settled in so well with them. The range of activities that the kids do is impressive, and we love that they learn languages. The kids get outside every day (rain or shine!), and my child loves it. Very happy with the nursery. As a bonus, it's on a lovely street with a super friendly community - so I enjoy drop off too!

My 1-year-old son started back in January and is absolutely thriving! The settling-in process was seamless and the staff have been so kind and nurturing throughout. He's really enjoying the organic meals and is eating so well. We've also been really impressed with the range of Forest School activities. The staff are friendly and approachable, and we feel so lucky to have found this nursery.

Woodentoots has been the ideal fit for my son. He loves the outdoors - the sense of adventure and creative activities means that he is always learning a range of skills. His vocabulary has developed very well through the tailored and engaging activities. Overall, a brilliant foundation. The range of organic and healthy meals for him has also led to him feeling fulfilled, something which I was concerned about. The leadership team have been informative, taken care in ensuring that his day to day needs are met and have always been prompt with communication. A fabulous team doing a great job.

Woodentots was great and provided a great nurturing environment for my nephew. I like their focus on sustainability and the fact that they have another nursery nearby to progress to on the same road, which is convenient.

My child absolutely loves coming to this Montessori nursery! The staff and wonderful manager create such a warm, caring and supportive environment. I'm especially impressed with the outdoor learning opportunities and community walks, which really spark curiosity and independence. The language learning has also been fantastic - my little one is always coming home excited to share new words and songs. The whole team go above and beyond, and I couldn't be happier with the nurturing, thoughtful care they provide. Truly a special place!

What a wonderful nursery! Our daughter has been so loved, nurtured and encouraged to develop and blossom. Her vocabulary, confidence, intelligence, motor skills, emotional and social development at this lovely setting has been impressive, and it's all due to the caring, encouraging team. We are forever grateful to the whole team for being a second family to our daughter. Such incredible carers! Thank you!
