Our daughter recently started Wellesley Nursery; she settled brilliantly and absolutely loves it. She comes home singing the songs and talking about the yummy snacks and lunches. Lots of time is spent outside, the children learn through play and are exposed to so many engaging activities. The best part is that she goes into the nursery happy, and leaves happy, what more could a parent want?
Both of our children have attended/currently attend the Wellesley nursery. The care is excellent and my children are so happy skipping into nursery. The education is incredible and the learning is fun and often outdoors. Communication from staff is efficient and consistent and the wider school facilities that the children have access to are wonderful. I've seen such progress with both children in their physical, emotional and educational development since attending. We adore the nursery here which also provides an easy transition to school life in reception.
We have had a brilliant experience with all three of our children at Wellesley nursery. The care has been brilliant. The teachers are kind and attentive and the children look forward to going in each day. The topics chosen spark great interest and there are lots of opportunities for outside play and the trips to the woods are brilliant. Just what you wish for your children! I highly recommend.
