At Maggie’s the team believe that every child deserves a nurturing and stimulating environment where they can play, grow, learn, and thrive. Children should spend as much time as possible in the great outdoors being nurtured with nature, feeling free to run and explore vibrant, natural spaces. That’s why at Maggie’s they seize every opportunity to be outside, with children frequently enjoying the forest school, alfresco dining and outdoor sleeping.

Such a fabulous nursery, I don't have a bad word to say! The staff are amazing, and the facilities are second to none. I almost feel like calling it just a 'nursery' doesn't do it justice. Maggie's is so much more than that. I'm so happy that both my children have attended.
Thank you for such a wonderful review. I will share this with the team, it's always so good to hear that our nursery and team is having such a positive impact on our families and our community.
Maggie's has been absolutely amazing for the development of our children. The staff are brilliant and treat our children as their own.
Our eldest child recently went back to Maggie's for holiday club and thoroughly enjoyed it. She felt like a celebrity because all the staff could remember her and made a big fuss greeti g her when they saw her.
We would recommend this nursery every day of the week to others
Thank you for taking the time to leave a great review. It's even more special when the children love to come back and see us and have fond memories of their time here, we enjoy welcoming them all back and hearing their school stories!
We couldn't have asked for a better start for our children. Both started at 9 months old and from day one we felt completely at ease. The staff are genuinely caring and really get to know each child, which shows in how confident and happy our two are. The facilities are incredible and the outdoor space is like no other. The children have real freedom to choose where they play and what they do. Our daughter is now about to start school and it feels emotional as the nursery has been such a big part of her early years. The only slight concern is that occasionally people without a fob can be let in by others, which can feel worrying. Overall, we've absolutely loved it from the start and our children have thrived here
Thank you for your kind words, it really does mean a lot to all of us. We're so pleased to hear how happy and confident your children have been, and it's been a real privilege to be part of your family's journey from those early days through to starting school. We know how emotional this stage can...
Maggies is the most supportive setting we've ever had the pleasure of being involved with. Nothing is ever too much for the staff at Maggie's. They are extremely understanding and supportive to both the children who attend their setting and the parents/families.
Our son who attends Maggie's has special educational needs. The SENCO and his key workers are very patient and understanding. They are also very keen to support our family as a whole, which means the world to us.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are truly delighted to hear how supported your family feels at Maggies. Our team is committed to creating a nurturing environment for every child, and it means a great deal to know that this has made a positive difference for you. We are especially pleased...
My daughter is extremely happy and settled at Nursery. The staff were all so patient and caring with her settling into new rooms throughout her nursery journey.
The nursery itself and grounds are exceptional, the activities they provide the children with are second to none. They enable the children to learn and have fun at the same time. The experiences my daughter has at nursery are just the best and she comes running out with a smile on her face every day and tells me she's had a good day.
As a parent, I have never felt anxious leaving my daughter with Maggie's, I know she is safe, well cared for and happy. The communication is excellent.
I couldn't recommend Maggie's @ Oakwood enough, they've given my daughter simply the best start in life & I will be forever grateful to them.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a brilliant review. It means such a lot to us to know children are enjoying their time with us and parents can leave them feeling safe, settled and happy.
Maggie's is the only place I wanted to send my daughter after looking round and we definitely made the right decision. All staff are welcoming and friendly, it is the most beautiful setting and has amazing indoor and outdoor facilities. My daughter settled quickly in the baby room and has thrived ever since. I can confidently leave her in their care knowing she is well looked after. I would recommend them to any parent wanting the best care for their children.
Thankyou for taking the time to leave us this fabulous review. We are so pleased to read your family are enjoying the nursery.
I'm so grateful to the Jemima Puddleducks team for the love, attentiveness and kindness they have shown my son since he started. They've made me feel supported and at ease from day one and it's clear how much my son enjoys his time there knowing his happy and well cared for so well means the world - thank you for everything you do!
Thank you for taking the time to leave our team this review. I'm really pleased to hear you've had a great start to nursery life and will share your comments with our fabulous baby room team.Many thanksLaura
Our child has been attending Jemima Puddle Ducks (Baby Room) for the last 9 months. Every day she comes home a more confident, active and engaging young person. With my wife's recent diagnosis of a brain tumour the staff has just been incredible with all the support they have given us as a family - going out of their way throughout treatment to provide us with extra support - from kind words when we needed it most to supporting me wife with play with our child in a supported environment. They have just been incredible in our hour of need. The staff at Maggie's also helped us when our child developed an allergy to milk at a young age with fantastic approaches to help with her food and were so quick to adapt at day to day nursery with food changes. They really are the best nursery there is!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this wonderful review. We do pride ourselves on being part of 'the village' helping you raise your children and are here for the parents and carer's as much as the children. I'm really pleased we were able to support you further through the work of our very own charity - The Margaret Mason Trust.
With each room transition-when we expected tears-our child has only loved it more. This past year, especially with the Early Years team, she has thrived. Exploring the forest and enjoying all the outdoor facilities has been an amazing experience for her.
We never have any sad drop-offs, as she absolutely loves all the staff at Maggie's. It means so much to us as parents that every member of staff knows and recognises my child, making us feel reassured that she is in safe and loving hands.
Although my child will be sad to leave nursery, she'll be back for all the summer fun days-and she'll be so excited when her baby sister begins her journey here too!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. I'm so pleased to hear nursery has been a happy and joyful place that's felt like home for her and we look forward to welcoming you back again!
Our daughter has had a far superior experience here than her brother had at another setting .
Thank you so much for a wonderful review! Hopefully a little kindness will go a long way!! Really pleased to hear it's been a positive experience for you all.
Thank you for all you have done for her!
You're very welcome!! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a great review.
The staff here are amazing and go above and beyond. The facilities are amazing and always being improved. My child loves his time here and the learning is based around the children and their developmental level which they can adjust for the children making everyone's experience better
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Very pleased to hear your son enjoys coming and that it has been a positive experience. I will share your kind words with our wonderful team.
The staff can't do enough and the facilities are second to none. Get a place here, out first born went to another nursery and it don't even come close to the professionalism and service provided at Maggie's. Simply superb.
Thankyou so much for taking the time to leave such an impressive review! so pleased to hear you've been happy with the service and nursery experience for your little one!
I have no hesitation in recommending Maggie's to any parent looking to for the right setting for their child/ren. My daughter started when she was 14 months, when I went back to work, and has grown and developed throughout her time with the amazing staff at the nursery, and they are now helping her to get ready to start school in September! From learning to speak, recognising and writing her name, learning to count, to developing key behavioural skills through playing independently and with other children in her group, to exploring the forest (including work in the cabin and teepee if the weather is too wet for being in the fresh air) and looking after the animals who are a big part of the nursery. I love the level of communication the nursery has with parents to support with development at home, as well as providing support (incl. workshops) in terms of behaviour/potty training etc. Professional but friendly and caring - its like home from home for my daughter.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this fabulous review. I'm pleased to hear we've provided the perfect environment for your little one and will share your kind words with the team.
The difference to others is unparalleled, in every way possible. The best possible start for my little one!
A credit to the staff who are all round brilliant along with the facility. Second to none.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. It really means a lot! We are very proud of our team at Maggie's!
We've always found the nursery to be brilliant. Both of our children now go here and they both thoroughly enjoy it. I recently attended a Mother's Day event with my eldest which was absolutely fantastic. A great mix of activities to bond with my son in his environment. He loved showing me all of the things he likes to do at nursery and giving me a tour of the amazing outside space. One of many well organised events. Highly recommend to anyone looking for childcare.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! Really pleased to hear that you are happy with the children's nursery experiences so far and enjoy opportunities to engage with us during events.
My son is cared for in the Puddle-Duck room. As a first time Mum, I was very nervous leaving my baby to go back to work. The first key worker I met has been outstanding. She made me feel at ease and my son became fond of her very quickly. He has now been at Maggies for over 3 months and loves all the staff there and has developed in himself massively. He always has a huge smile on his face at pick ups because he has so much fun here. Thank you to all the girls for your hard work!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm really pleased to hear your little one has settled in and the experience is going well. I will share this with the baby room team.
The facilities are second to none and I haven't seen another nursery close by which offers anything similar.
Hand on heart the best decision we've made choosing this nursery.
A massive shoutout to the Jemima Puddleducks ladies, you are honestly the best!
Thank you so much for your lovely review. I'm so pleased your little girl is enjoying her nursery experience with us and you are happy with the service provided by our team. We're very proud of our baby room team too and I'll be sure to share your kind words with them.
Our son has attended Maggies since he was 7 months old and the level of care he's received in both rooms so far has been outstanding. He makes wonderful relationships with the ladies looking after him and his development has really shone through. He goes in happy and comes out happy and that's really given us confidence as parents that he really enjoys his days at nursery. In addition to that, the environment, and indoor and outdoor spaces are beyond compare and it really feels a very special place and community to be part of.
Thank you for taking your time to leave us such a lovely review, it pleases us to hear that you feel our nursery is as special a place as we do. I will share your kind words with the team.
The outside space is wonderful as are the room themes
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I'll share your kind words with the team.
