I can't speak highly enough of this nursery! The staff are amazing! so kind, caring, and attentive to my son. From the very first day, they made my son feel comfortable and supported. The settle-in sessions were carefully timed each week before his start, and since starting full-time time he has settled in so well! In just a few weeks, I've already seen such so much progress in his speech and language. I'm so grateful for the positive impact they've had on my son, and I couldn't have chosen a better place for him to learn. He's able to play and learn indoors and outdoors at his choosing, which he really enjoys as he is a very active boy. The key workers are fantastic; they set regular goals to help him reach his milestones and coordinate all goals with home life. A huge thank you to all the staff!

My daughter started at Willows in September, and the nursery has been absolutely amazing in helping her settle in. I was really anxious about her starting nursery, but she has settled so well thanks to the wonderful staff. Everyone is so warm, welcoming, and caring, and I'm so glad I chose Willows. The nursery is always clean and provides such a lovely, nurturing environment for the children.

My daughter has been going to Willows Day Nursery for a couple of years now and she absolutely loves it. The staff always go above and beyond to make her feel supported and safe. A very special thanks to the team leader of bumblebees and now in ladybirds and her calm, kind and proactive approach has definitely been paramount in making my daughter's experience a lovely one. My youngest daughter is just about to start the nursery in September and I am very positive that her time at Willows will be just as fantastic. Thank you all for everything you do!

Our son has been going to the Willows Day Nursery for the past 4 years and loves it there! He has made some great friends and will be sad to leave in September. The staff are very caring and keep him engaged in many activities throughout the day!

Willows Day nursery has been nothing but fantastic. The staff are absolutely amazing and they always go above and beyond for the children in their care. They are very passionate and very helpful. My son has absolutely thrived since attending this nursery and I have already registered to send my daughter too. They offer so many different activities for the children, they offer healthy fresh meals daily and they are always there to give a detailed handover at the end of the session. They are such a lovely bunch of supportive individuals and myself and my son will miss them dearly. My child has progressed so much with the help of this nursery and I just know he will miss it so much. The senco is fabulous as well. I am so thankful to them for taking such good care of my son and would definitely recommend them.

The highest recommendation I can give is that we've signed our unborn child up to come to the nursery when he's ready. My daughter has loved her time and has really bonded specifically with Nursery Practitioners in preschool, and they've both been exceptional with her.

My son is thriving at nursery and learning new things all the time. He loves the outside space and the toys available. All the staff are friendly and caring.

My little girl absolutely loves coming into nursery every day such a lovely warm and welcoming environment. All staff are amazing and I can see how happy my daughter is when I collect her at the end of the day. Handover is always brilliant. A big thank you to everyone at Willows.

We are so grateful to the amazing staff at willows nursery. Everyone both in and out of caterpillar room has been so friendly and welcoming to us and our daughter. We have found the transition difficult , and we have been met with kind faces throughout, no question is too much. The staff have gone above and beyond to settle our little one, holding her to sleep which I appreciate is tricky in a busy environment, and encouraging her poor eating habits. We are now starting to see their hard work and kindness pay off as she starts to settle in. So grateful, thank you.

My child has been at Willows for 2 years and she loves it. The day is full of fulfilling activities and includes multiple trips to their forest school. She comes home everyday having learnt something new, with crafts she's created or stories of playing with her friends. The food is excellent and the staff genuinely care about the children and show compassion, interest and joy in their roles.

Since joining the nursery in September last year, we've had nothing but good experiences. This week, I was invited to a stay and play session for Mother's day. I was warmly welcomed and an activity had been organised for my son and I to do together. We had a lovely time, and it was great to see how happy and settled he is. It's clear the staff really do care about the children, and put in the effort to engage with each and every one of them. I came away with a big smile, and much less 'mum guilt' having seen how much he enjoys spending time there.

We are currently in our second cycle though Willows nursery and I honestly cannot fault it at all and whilst we have over a year left there with our second child I'm dreading her leaving and having to say goodbye to people that have become like a family to us. Both my children have thrived at Willows and the care they have received has been first class. My youngest struggled a bit more to settle but the staff were excellent in making suggestions and adjustments to help her settle. They really do look at each child as an individual and work to their needs and personalities. They have been so patient with my daughter and their dedication has really helped her come out of her shell. The staff in all the rooms are great at what they do and are always there with a smile to answer any questions you have. But I'd also like to highlight the office staff and kitchen staff who are just as important to the nursery and work so hard with less recognition. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Willows!

The manager runs a tight ship. Great job to her!!! Childbase is lucky to have her. The staff is helpful and always tries to do their best. It's a bit of a mare with the parking space, especially during drop-off and pick-up.

My son started in the ladybird room around the end of November and he has adapted to his new routine amazingly. He always goes into nursery happy and smiling, he's so much more confident and we can already see his speech progressing. This is absolutely down to the amazing staff in the room. They really do take wonderful care of our son and keep us updated throughout the day. He's absolutely thriving at Willows and we couldn't be happier. I always feel welcomed when arriving at the nursery, all the staff know my son's name and greet him as we enter the building. When walking into his room he always gets a warm welcome from the ladybird team and I love hearing all the feedback at the end of the day.

Willows has been I think the motivator for having a second child. The way our daughter has been nurtured bestows in us the trust that she is in good hands. From the different classes that she has progressed through, she comes home expressing volumes of good experiences with the staff and peers as well. The different names we here mentioned in the evening prayers have driven us to see what she sees in her learning advisors. Children at Willows experience the perfect balance of what parents wish for their kids. We wish you many more...

Both my grandmother and grandson have attended the nursery. The children have been nurtured and cared for as individuals. They have been encouraged to develop in their own way and their own time. For my granddaughter, transition to school was natural and a very positive experience. The nursery were very involved and had uniform dress-ups and school roleplays in preparation for the move, on her graduation day she was in the perfect place to be ready for 'big school'. The manager is very understanding and accommodating as are her team. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Willows Day Nursery is the best setting I could have imagined for my daughter. She thrived in the two years she spent there, developing her verbal skills, social skills and friendships that are carrying on with her as she starts reception. The teachers there are all supportive and loving and they are able to offer both the personal care that caters to individual needs as well as the setting for children to play and interact with one another. Their classes are filled with resources, centres and up-to-date equipment. There is a high hygiene level and my daughter always loved going every single day. Not only did she play, but she also learned different skills in a fun way. Thank you Willows for offering my daughter a second home.

Willows is a wonderful nursery! Both my children attended since they were 9 months old and have been so well looked after. The staff are so friendly and are well led by management. The team are so approachable, regardless of how big or small the problem. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery to everyone!
05 August 2024
We had an awful experience at a previous nursery and called the Willows in a panic as we needed to find somewhere for our child urgently. From the very beginning, the team were understanding and helpful and instantly I felt I had made the right decision in calling them. Every member of the team we had dealings with was friendly and approachable and really helped my little one become more confident. Dropping them off at nursery was no longer a battle as he was settled. Thank you to everyone for changing our opinion of childcare.
