Over all time Apple Daycare Wild Hill has 42 reviews.
Everything has been perfect. Even at the start - his settling in sessions where the emphasis was purely on his welfare, settling in and getting to know him and now to understanding what he is interested in and tailoring his learning towards that interest. Every request I've ever made has been honoured with the upmost care. Dietary changes/nappies/change of hours/ the odd extra day. The team and bond my son has with them makes me feel less guilty for leaving him and gives me one less worry while I'm at work. He's excited every day to go and see them. I know his day is fuelled by good food, people who care, fun learning and alot of fresh air when he wants it. Such a gem of a place. Thank you.
We are really happy with Apple at Wildhill, our daughter really enjoys going to nursery and the staff are all so lovely and attentive. I love that they go for nature walks in the field and there seems to be a good mix of structure and free play in their day. I also really appreciate that we get detailed daily updates along with photos from the day. It's always a joy to see what they have been up to.
They are always doing different activities daily and my boys genuinely get so excited as soon as we pull up.
Thank you so much to all the staff for taking such good care of my babies.
The staff at Wild Hill were very kind and supportive when helping to settle my son into nursery for the first time.
The activities that the team organise are great and I can really see how my son has developed since going to nursery.
The team keep you updated via an app, where they publish details about my son's day, which is great and I love to see what he's been up to.
The staff at Wild Hill are lovely and create a fun and nurturing environment for the children.
My son is also a big fan of the lovely home cooked food!!
My little boy absolutely loves going to Apple day care, he is so excited every time I drop him off! All of the staff are wonderful, so caring and energetic! The planned activities are amazing and they do lots of outdoor play!
Others often comment on how advanced his speech and development are for his age and I truly believe this is a result of his experience at Apple.
He quickly formed strong bonds with the nursery staff, and these relationships have remained consistent throughout his two years at both The House and Wildhill settings.
The team are incredibly supportive and genuinely care about the wellbeing and development of the children. Knowing he is happy, safe, and thriving at Apple has made returning to work so much easier.
Thank you to all of the team, we feel very lucky to have found such a nurturing environment for our son.
We love Apple Daycare at Wild Hill! Our son loves going to nursery and doesn't want to leave when we come to pick him up. The staff are hard working and cheerful and really seem to love their job which is great to see. The food at nursery is home made and fresh every day and the children get plenty of outdoor time. The staff also work really hard to ensure the kids are stimulated and every day is jam packed with different activities. I would highly recommend Apple Daycare.
Our son has been at Wildhill since the Spring. He loves going to nursery and enjoys his days, with a mix of free play and structured activities. His key worker has a great relationship with him but all of the staff are equally able to provide support and aid his development. We feel that he is safe at the Wildhill site. He sleeps well and eats well. Everyone is positive and it is a happy place for him to be. Most days he doesn't want to leave!
The workers are IMPECCABLE my little girl adores them all and I cannot scream how much I love this place.
I drop her off knowing that she is well looked after.
No words will say how much I love the nursery and I would million percent recommend x
My daughter has been attending Wild Hill since January and she has settled in very well. She has a lovely bond with her key worker and all the staff are very good. They are always doing different activities and learning new things which they keep us all up to date with on an app, along with additional information like food, drink and nappy changes. I feel very comfortable with my daughter attending this nursery setting and feel she has definitely benefited from attending. They have been very helpful in encouraging my daughter with any delays in development and set goals for her to work towards. I would highly recommend this nursery, the setting and the lovely team.
My son progressed up to the wild hill setting in October last year and it was so seemless. Luckily 2 of his favourite key workers went with him (thank you) but he regularly mentions new people in the setting.
I love all the activities they allow the kids to access including maximum outdoor time which my son loves as well as external companies/leaders they bring in.
My son loves going to nursery and is excited every time I drop him off. It is so reassuring to send him to a loving and heartwarming environment with such lovely staff.
All the staff there are so friendly and welcoming, from the everyday team to the back room chef, our little boy looks so happy when he is left and looks forward to the days he attends nursery.
The team create so many wonderful interactive activities, which are fun as well as educational. They have the kids well-being and development at their best interest.
Thank you for making us feel at ease and providing our son with an amazing childcare service.
My Son has been with Apple for nearly a year and I can honestly say I feel completely safe and at ease leaving my child at Wild Hill. My child's Key Worker consistently goes above and beyond with his Learning and Development. My child also loves another staff member in particular and the other girls and runs into Nursery with a smile on his face! I would highly Recommend Apple to everybody and I definitely wouldn't send him anywhere else!!
The staff here have been really kind and supportive while helping to settle my daughter into nursery for the first time. The communication is great, the acitivies and planning they do is comprehensive and there is a relaxed and nurturing atmosphere. I look forward to seeing what my daughter has been up to at the end of the day and know that the feedback I get from everyone is honest and child centered.
My son loves going in each day and the staff all seem wonderful so I am really happy with our experience of Apple daycare at wildhill. It's a nice big nursery so lots of toys that my son loves to play with and there's space for him to run around. Looking forward to the new play area being built outside too. It's lovely receiving the photos and daily diary updates on the app, that's been really good. Overall a great experience and would recommend them!
One of the things we appreciate most is how caring and kind the team are, in particular his key worker who he adores!!
We feel so lucky to have found this nursery. It has given our son the perfect start to his early years, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to any family looking for a nurturing, fun, safe space where their child can thrive!
Harriet and Olivia have created such a warm and welcoming setting that my child walks in happily, with no fuss, and as a parent that's so reassuring and I couldn't ask for anything more. Tilly, Lisa and Louise are also brilliant and my child has built lovely relationships with them. I can't imagine sending my baby anywhere else, thank you to the Wild Hill team!
The staff are absolutely amazing and try hard day in day out to make the kids day fun and educational. Home cooked meals, snacks, days in the garden and even visits from firefighters.
My son and daughter run into nursery and come out smiling.
The touches they do for special events such as easter, mothers day, fathers day are so thoughtful and the handmade gifts from the kids you can treasure for ever.
They honestly go that extra mile and I feel my children are well looked after.
You can see on the app the daily tasks the children are going to be doing that day. Timing of toileting/nappy changing when suncream was applied, and how much they ate. They picked up a contact allergy straight away with my daughter. The staff have all been wonderful. Thankyou again.
Child always happy to go to preschool & met with friendly warm caring staff! Although this was a short experience for the child in my care nothing was too much and it was a very positive experience for him thank you!
From day one, the staff at Wild Hill have been absolutely amazing. They are incredibly caring, nurturing, and genuinely invested in the children's well-being and development. It's clear they create a warm and supportive environment where children feel safe, happy, and encouraged to thrive.
My daughter settled in quickly and always looks forward to her nursery days. It's a joy to see how much she enjoys her time there and the strong bonds she's built with both the staff and other children.
We're so grateful to have found a setting that feels like a home away from home. Thank you to the wonderful team for everything you do!
