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.

When picking my son up he is always clean and looks well looked after.
The staff are very enthusiastic about the children and engage with them.
The management has always been helpful too.
I haven't had any issues but I feel if I did I would be listened to.
I was nervous with my son's nativity however they put all support in place for him, making sure he felt comfortable and he did amazing! My son is able to completely be his confident, loud self around them because he is so comfortable in this environment.
Definitely a five-star nursery.
My child has a great time when there and chats about what they have done that day.
My child does go in upset sometimes but the staff are brilliant at comforting my child and help distract and take their mind off me going.
Excellent they go outside and explore, my child loves being outside as well.
The security is brilliant, makes you feel safe to leave them there as well.
Our child loves nursery and is always happy to arrive and this is due to the amazing staff you have, who always make my little one feel special and loved. Listening to staff talk about my child is great as it is clear they know them and have a lovely relationship with them, where my child feels safe, loved and cherished. Two members of staff, in particular, are incredible and have gone the extra mile to support our little one and are, as a family, always there to listen and to give advice and support where needed. Thank you!
We love it that much there that we booked our second child in and secured a place before she was born.
I feel very settled when I drop our daughter off here at the nursery. She is happy to attend and they communicate extremely well with us. It's a beautiful nursery with excellent and caring staff and I couldn't recommend it any higher than what I have. I only wish I had sent my other child here a few years ago.
Thank you very much.
Top place, the sunlamps they have are brilliant, my little one loves the rabbits and especially the goats.
Nursery fees can be so expensive, but the quality of service & care received, is well worth it, knowing my little one is happy & thriving there.
The staff are fantastic. Warm, welcoming, polite & approachable. I cannot recommend them enough. The communication between us is fantastic too.
Keep winning those awards, Children 1st!
My daughter has been at Children 1st since she was 9 months old and has really come on leaps and bounds since attending. The staff are all very friendly and highly trained and my daughter seems to come home learning something new every time she attends. The facilities are great and very secure and you get lots of information about their day when I pick my child up. Would highly recommend this nursery.
My son is eager to attend nursery and runs in happily daily. He talks about all the various activities he gets to do throughout the week which is impressive. He builds key skills such as phonics, fire safety in the forest and knife skills by cutting his own food. Accidents are recorded appropriately and staff are professional and understanding of you as a parent entrusting them with your children.
The facilities are amazing, which makes me feel less guilty for having to leave him while I work since I know he’s genuinely having so much fun learning and exploring.
Honestly cannot fault the nursery at all, since my child has been going she has come on leaps and bounds. I’ve highly recommended the nursery to all my friends who have kids in the nursery already or are pregnant and they agree after viewing the nursery no other nursery even compares!
Children 1st @ Oakwood is an outstanding nursery, our daughter is thriving here and often declares “I love nursery”. The nursery catered to our daughter’s milk intolerance which has now overcome. The staff are friendly and there are plenty of activities for the children. The forestry with all the animals is unparalleled when it comes to what other nurseries are offering in the area. I also like the events that the nursery put on which gives parents the opportunity to visit and speak with staff.
Excellent, knowledgeable, kind and caring staff. My daughter loves attending nursery and would go every day if she could. Such a comfort when you know you’re leaving your child with such lovely people and when you know your child is so happy.
Everyone who works there seems to know her name, even management and staff from rooms she doesn’t currently go in.
Her speech has come on leaps and bounds and it’s apparent how much they learn with what she comes home talking about.
The outdoor space and culture around getting children outside in all weathers is my favourite part of the nursery; we are a screen-free home and the fact this is carried on in the nursery too is great.
Food is varied and my daughter always eats everything.
My daughter is on long-term medication and I have had no issues with this being given to her which really gives me peace of mind.
Everything about this nursery is just outstanding to me. From the beautiful building itself where it is clear to see that absolutely no expense is spared for anything, to the truly wonderful staff. They also have an exceptional outdoor area where outdoor play and learning are promoted. The children are fed healthy nutritious meals on a daily basis. I have every confidence in this nursery and I am grateful that my daughter has a place here.
My son has progressed greatly since attending nursery, with speech, understanding and his walking.
I highly recommend the nursery and the team!
We couldn’t be happier with our nursery choice. The nursery staff are all so friendly and have been extremely supportive since our daughter started. She has built so much confidence since joining through the encouragement of her key workers and the beautiful safe environment she’s in. Thank you to everyone at Children 1st @ Oakwood for all that you do.
Children 1st @Oakwood is absolutely brilliant. The staff are so welcoming and supportive of individual needs. The range of activities is amazing and the outdoor area and facilities and forest school are absolutely amazing.
