My son has been going since he was 8months old and now will go to school in September! it was pretty much new when we joined and the sensory room was a major factor in selecting this nursery as was cooking from fresh on site!


we have always been happy with the staff, despite some movement there

are some consistent faces and everyone knows my son by name.


the days are structured, appropriate to the age and development needed. Great out door space, my child comes home muddy and half the sand from the sand pit is in his shoes, but to me that's a sign he has enjoyed his adventures!

I think every parent is concerned the first time they drop off their child at Nursery. But over the last few months we have realised just how amazing WDN is. The staff are caring, nurturing, and attentive. Any concern we have the staff have gone above and beyond to sort it. We feel very confident in
letting WDN look after our child. Who has enjoyed every day he has attended nursery. When it comes to safety, this nursery is the best we could find in Bucks. I don't think I could ever find a nursery to replace this one. 10/10 from us.

My children attend this nursery and I think it's fantastic. The staff are warm, welcoming, and genuinely care about the children. There are so many brilliant activities and initiatives, and the facilities and outdoor space are excellent. I'm really impressed with the extras like Spanish lessons and
Hartbeeps, and there is a really well thought out, balanced menu to offer the children variety in their meals. Learning opportunities are varied and well planned, and I've really noticed my children developing since starting here. The nursery is clean, well resourced, and management are approachable and pragmatic. Some days do feel quite busy and a bit hectic, but I've never been concerned about staff ratios - the children are always happy and well cared for. There's always room for improvement in any setting, but the staff here are always striving to make things better and are extremely receptive to feedback. I highly recommend this nursery.

When I came to view the nursery, I was so impressed by how well thought out each room was and how clean, bright and homely it felt. My Daughter has been attending for almost 6 months and she loves it. The staff were so supportive when she first transitioned and have been great with easing her into each
new room and routine.

Since day one, the manager and all her team were so helpful and friendly. My little boy settled really quickly, and now he enjoys every day going there, and I enjoy seeing the daily updates with photos. I highly recommend this nursery.

Our daughter has attended the nursery since June 2021 as a 10 month old and is now preparing to graduate and go to school. We took a risk on Wendover Day Nursery as when we looked around there were no children and it hadn't even opened however the risk paid off. Our daughter has always loved it there
and I know she doesn't want to leave! The staff are fantastic, always friendly and always prepared to give advice if we need it. There is always a range of activities for them to do and they even bring in external activities such as hartbeeps and a spanish teacher so they never get bored. We would 100% recommend Wendover Day Nursery, it is everything we wanted for our daughter's childcare.

My son has attended this nursery for just over two years and has enjoyed every room he's progressed through. From day one, morning drop-offs have been smooth. He has never been reluctant to go inside, and I believe his eagerness is a sign of the quality of the nursery.
The staff deserve real credit.
All are friendly and caring, and whether or not they look after him directly, every member greets him by name. Their genuine warmth reassures us at drop-off time.
Our son is a picky eater, but the food is fresh with varied menus and he seems to enjoy what is served most days. Updates on the app are reassuring throughout the day.
The setting is very clean, yet still bright and fun. Over the two years we've seen continuous improvements and new ideas implemented to keep the environment engaging & refreshed which is a credit to the management.
The nursery combines consistent, traditional care with thoughtful modern touches. We're delighted our son attends and highly recommend it.

Our son has thrived at Wendover Day Nursery thanks to the supportive staff who have encouraged his curiosity and independence.
I was nervous at first sending my son to nursery but I was instantly reassured.
All the staff are incredibly passionate and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere
for all of the children.
The nursery's well-structured curriculum provides a diverse range of stimulating activities that promote holistic development across all areas of learning.
Our loves his Spanish and music classes on a Friday and his arts, crafts, water play and the sand pit which are fabulous to explore new skills and imaginative play.
The staff at Wendover Day Nursery consistently keep us informed about our child's progress through regular updates and open communication channels.
Our son always seems so happy to be at Nursery.
Thank you so much WDN!

I cannot stress enough how happy we are with Wendover Day Nursery. As a military family we face a lot of turbulence and change in our lives, and we have been wholeheartedly supported by all the staff at the nursery. My daughter adores her time and nursery, and my son, who I was very concerned would
have severe separation anxiety, has settled in exceptionally well. I am also very jealous of the menu selections that the chef cooks fresh daily!
I am so glad we found this nursery and that I feel comfortable returning to work. Thank you.

We're so happy with Wendover Day Nursery! The staff are warm, caring, and professional, and the nursery is always clean and well-maintained. A special thank you to the principal for being so flexible with settling-in times-it really helped our baby adjust comfortably. We feel completely at ease knowing
our little one is in such loving hands.

We could not be happier with Wendover Day Nursery, its been amazing for both my son and for my nephew (1 and 3).
I was so stressed about leaving my son at nursery, we haven't spent much time apart before and we ate very attached to eachother so I was nervous about how he (and I!) would adjust. The
girls were so kind and reassuring during his settling period and this hasn't changed. They are great at communicating throughout the day with photos and updates on the app, and are great at supporting us when there are routine changes or specific development areas we want to focus on (crawling, standing etc). The manager of babies room 1, is particularly amazing. We really feel she cares about our son and goes above and beyond to make sure him and all the other children are happy and well cared for

The nursery is a wonderful setting for all ages. We moved our little boy from another nursery and we are just so thrilled as parents how he has developed so well thanks to the nursery. The nursery is clean and the staff are lovely and handovers are brilliant with detailed info on how our son has been.
The app is always updated and keeps us informed with new information. I can't recommend this nursery enough, it's fantastic!

Both my sons attend Wendover Day Nursery and they have both enjoyed it from day one. They get involved in such a wide range of activities and the staff really put so much effort into planning their days and making special memories. The garden in particular is a real highlight. The team care for all
the children and it is lovely to see that they are equally as excited as me to see the boys achieve various milestones. My eldest is leaving to go to school in September, thanks to the team at Wendover Day Nursery he is ready for this transition and is super excited for big school.

My little one loves this nursery and always comes back so happy. As a first time mum it was daunting and stressful trying to find a nursery to accommodated to our needs and then we found Wendover day nursery. The settling in sessions were great and helped put my mind at ease seeing how the staff worked
and the room my little one was going to be in. They also talked through how she likes to be put to sleep, allergies and massively helped with her weaning journey.All the staff are very friendly and know my little one's name even those who don't work in the same room and always say hi when passing.
I can confidently express any concerns I have and staff are fantastic at finding solutions and always listen.
They take good care of my little one, does lots of activities and I am able to track her in the app. I also get daily photos which is special especially when I miss her. Could not fault, I highly recommend this nursery.

My son has attended Wendover Day Nursery for over a year and loves going in every morning. There's a strong sense that the whole staff team know him, even staff who are based in the older rooms and have not yet worked with him. It's priceless to be able to leave him in the care of a warm and welcoming
team who have his best interests at heart and with whom he's so settled and happy.
His interpersonal skills such as sharing and turn taking have developed amazingly well and his language development is coming on in leaps and bounds. As an outdoorsy little boy, we really appreciate the quality and space afforded to him in their outdoor area that backs onto expansive countryside views. It's a little gem.
Staff helped us to identify a dairy intolerance and were able to quickly address it by adjusting to dairy alternatives such as oat milk for him whilst we did the same at home.
Thanks to the team for all you continue to do for our wonderful little man.

We couldn't be happier with how well our son has settled into the nursery since April of this year. From the very beginning, the staff have been incredibly welcoming, and it's clear to see how much they genuinely care about the children.
There's such a great variety of activities on offer, keeping
the days fun, engaging, and full of learning opportunities. The room leaders show real passion and dedication, and that comes through in everything they do. Our son is happy to go to nursery and it's lovely to see how much he's thriving.
The management team are also clearly passionate and committed to continuous improvement, which gives us real confidence that the nursery is always evolving in the best interests of the children.
We're grateful to have found such a great place for our little boy.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.912)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.912) out of 10 for Wendover Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 40 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.912 for Wendover Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (438 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 478 Ratings = 4.912

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wendover Day Nursery is based on 40 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 101 number of registered child places is 20.2, which has been reached with 40 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Jodie Ahmet

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2023

My name is Jodie, and I am the Nursery Manager at Wendover Day Nursery.

I joined Wendover Day Nursery as Deputy Manager in September 2023 and was delighted to be promoted to Nursery Manager in March 2025.

In addition to my professional role, I am also a parent to a wonderful two-year-old who attends the nursery. This dual perspective allows me to truly understand and appreciate the needs and expectations of parents. It enables me to approach my role with empathy, ensuring that every decision we make is in the best interest of the children and their families.

Starting my career in early years education 8 years ago as an apprentice has given me a strong foundation and a deep, hands-on understanding of every aspect of nursery life, and I am so proud of my team's clear vision that we share for all of our children- to be happy, resilient and thrive every day, no matter their age, background or abilities.

I look forward to meeting you all soon.
