Spencer Wood Day Nursery is doing good. I would like to see the staff more prompt in updating the daily chores of children on the app. At the moment I feel it's very minimum info about how the day was.

My children are so happy at this nursery and are absolutely thriving! The staff encourage my children through learning and play and really supports their growth. The entire setting is amazing with great resources. Children have a range of different tools and equipment to support their development, and all of the staff treat my children like their own family. The app they use to update you on your children's day is amazing and so helpful, I love being able to see what they have eaten and what activities they have done. I don't have a single complaint or concern about the nursery. My children have never been happier or more cared for at a nursery and I am so glad we found a nursery which was such a good fit for our family! Thank you to all the lovely staff!

This was mainly due to the management of the setting and inexperience of staff (I would like to call out the pre-school room leader however, as each interaction with her was always fantastic).
Since leaving, senior management has reached out to hear my views and assured me of steps taken to make improvements. Whilst I won’t be around to confirm this, the setting has potential under the right leadership, but until that is established, the current performance did not meet my expectations.
Due to my experience, it was enough to pull my children out of the setting and revert back to our previous nursery which was outside of the area.
The nursery is new and may need time to develop. I wish them all the best.

The app is great for regular updates and also for general communication. The food is always nutritious and varied, there are many different activities they do each day and they spend a lot of time outside.

We had initial doubts putting our son in a brand new nursery with no existing reviews or ofsted rating available, but the nursery tour put our minds at ease. We could sense the passion and knowledge from the nursery manager on their vision for the nursery, which we liked. Our son has been attending Spencers Wood Day Nursery for over six weeks now, and we’ve noticed a huge development in his settling there and also in new skills he has learnt. All the staff have been really friendly and welcoming, and our son adores his key worker which really helps! The app is great as well, providing updates throughout the day.
