I wanted to just send a quick message to all the team at Coteswood to say how grateful and lucky we feel every day that we found you guys for our daughter. It feels so much like a family and she always comes home to us each day beaming with stories from her day. I hope you all remember every day the amazing impact you have on children's lives and families. Helping our little ones grow and flourish. It will be incredibly hard when she says goodbye next year for school

Parting with your 9-month old baby and putting your trust into strangers is a daunting and scary prospect. The staff at Coteswood House eased all our concerns and our now 19-month old loves going to nursery. The activities and experiences that the children have help development and learning. We are kept up to date daily of activities and also food intake. We highly recommend Coteswood House and our second child is already signed up to go once they are old enough.

I can't recommend Coteswood house enough, the staff are so lovely and my little girl adores going each morning. She is in the baby room and has been attending since her first birthday. The staff in her room are nurturing, kind and caring and I know she is in such good hands! I love the updates we receive each day on the app as I can see what she is getting up to and it is obvious how happy she is. Choosing a nursery is a big thing and our little one is our first making it even more of a big decision but I'm so pleased with how well she has settled in. She has access to a lovely garden area which they use regularly, the resources in the room are carefully chosen for their age and the guided activities each day give her lots of opportunities to try new things and develop. I am pleased with the selection of foods she has each day and know she is also given the chance to try lots of new foods.

Coteswood is absolutely amazing. All the staff are great and take really amazing care of the children. The activities they are are varied and our child always come away smiling. The variety of meals are great and nutritious. Honestly couldn't recommend Coteswood more!

Outstanding Nursery - Highly Recommend! My daughter has been attending Coteswood for the past 14 months, and we couldn't be happier with the care and attention she receives. From day one, every member of staff has known her by name and always takes the time to speak to her, even in passing - it's clear how much they value each individual child. The team are incredibly attentive to her needs and consistently manage to get a smile out of her, even on her grumpiest mornings! We've been amazed at how much she has developed during her time there - her speech has come on in leaps and bounds, and she uses a wide range of sign language alongside speaking, which has been wonderful to see. She eats well, loves going in each day, and absolutely adores the staff. Most importantly, she's happy - and that means everything to us. We couldn't recommend Coteswood highly enough - they've truly created a nurturing, engaging environment where children can thrive.

An absolutely amazing nursery. My son attends this nursery and has some additional needs but the nursery are so supportive of both me and him, especially the ladies in the Little Badgers Room. Two other staff have also helped me no ends of times with paperwork etc. All staff are so friendly and easily approachable, they really go above and beyond and I so highly recommend this nursery and their staff. Children have different creative activities each day, my son loves attending nursery and is so happy here and has come on leaps and bounds in every aspect since starting here in April. The garden area for all ages of children is really good space and again, full of activities for the children to do I smell the food cooking on drop off and pick up and it always smells yummy! Thank you again to all the staff for everything you've done.

My son has been at the nursery for a year now and he is doing great. His speech has come along so well and he is making friends . All the staff fantastic. They give each of the children so much attention. The updates on the activities they do are lovely, I feel so lucky he got a space there. Thank you

I can't recommend Coteswood House enough, since day one, the transition to a nursery setting was made so easy for my daughters. They absolutely love the days they spend here, the environment is constantly happy and inviting. All the staff continuously put in such effort to support each child's development, arranging lovely activities and events for each age group. The care they provide is amazing, something every parent worries about when leaving their children with someone else but we have never had issues. They go above and beyond to try and help our daughters in anyway they can, even when our youngest can be a bit challenging. They genuinely feel like an extension of our family and I'll be so sad when my children are no longer attending.

My daughter has been at Coteswood for 16 months now and we are so glad that we chose this nursery for her. All the staff are really friendly and treat our daughter as if she's their own. They do really fun activities with the children. My daughter loves going

We couldn't be happier with Coteswood Nursery. Our son has absolutely thrived since joining. He's always been curious about bugs and animals, and the staff have really embraced this, encouraging his interests and love of the outdoors through their brilliant forest school sessions. What we appreciate most is their gentle, Montessori-inspired ethos: they let him learn at his own pace and through play, never pushing, just supporting his natural curiosity. The nursery itself is beautifully decorated, filled with thoughtful toys and resources, and the small, intimate setting in a home makes it feel warm and familiar rather than like a large institution. Even though he only attends two days a week, he's grown in confidence and independence, and it's clear he feels safe, happy, and valued here. We would wholeheartedly recommend Coteswood to any family looking for a nurturing, play-focused environment where children can truly flourish.

My son goes to Coteswood House Pre-School and Day Nursery and he loves it there. Holidays are difficult for us as he keeps asking why can't he go to nursery. It just shows how much he likes it there. I would definitely recommend this nursery. The staff are amazing, always accommodating especially with the last-minute extra hours. They are kind, pleasant at the same time I could see how they try to help the children to be independent. Thank you all for making those lovely kids smile and there is nothing more we would like to see as parents.

Both my children attend or have attended Coteswood House Pre-School and Day Nursery. My daughter attended for a year and a half and in that time made such a special bond with her teachers. My son only attends one day a week but he absolutely loves it. As they are such a small nursery I feel that there is that real personal touch. I felt like I got to know the staff and that I could really rely on them whenever I needed, with no judgment only support. From forgetting snacks and lunch to help with admissions. They really are the most amazing team.

An absolutely incredible preschool! Both my daughter and son went to Coteswood House Pre-School and Day Nursery and had the most wonderful start to the education/schooling system with being there. The staff make it - what a fantastic, loving, down to earth team of people. You won't find a better setting than Coteswood.

Amazing staff, amazing setting. Always went above and beyond. Kept in contact ever since. It’s not just a preschool for your children, the staff become family. For which me and my daughter are very grateful for. Highly recommend.

I cannot recommend this preschool enough. My daughter runs up the path in the morning and cannot wait to go in. The staff are fantastic and know all the children by name which is lovely. My daughter has made some lovely friends and her confidence has improved so much since she started. The preschool is really structured which is a great start for school and her speech and numeracy has come on so much since she started.

My child loved this nursery and learnt so much. I would recommend this nursery to everyone. They always made learning fun and every day she would come back home full of beans about her day. Thank you for everything and keep up the great work. It was always so lovely when I picked up my daughter to see so many happy children excited to learn.

My son started here in January 2022. I was quite nervous about how well he would settle in but the staff were fantastic. They have made sure he is so happy and comfortable and he now asks to go to pre-school all the time.

My daughter currently attends Coteswood House Pre-School and Day Nursery. Since attending her progress has been amazing. If it wasn’t for Coteswood I don’t think she’d be as forward as she is. There’s nothing more reassuring for me than knowing she’s excited to go to school and comes home telling me all about school. Me and her dad always say how amazing all of the staff are and how our daughter treats them the same way she does some of her most loved family members (and she’s fussy). I wish she could stay here forever. She’s really looked after and we never have to worry!

I have had children at Coteswood House Pre-School and Day Nursery for five years now and will have another one starting in September 2022. There isn't a more caring setting anywhere. Our middle child has been incredibly supported by the team with his reluctance to speak. It's like a home-from-home and the staff care for the children as if they are their own. Our youngest can't wait to start! 11/10 wouldn't be enough!
10 February 2022
This is by far one of the most person-centred nurseries I've come across, the care they provide for each child is so individual and catered to them and they really get to know your child. My personal experience with them caring for both my little ones was beyond expectations and they were very nurturing. My son still remembers his time at his nursery as it was very special to him. My daughter was very young when she went but even still made special bonds with her teachers, the nursery holds a special place in our hearts!
