We have so enjoyed being a part of the West Cambridge family. From the first day in the baby room right through to the last day in preschool, the staff have always been so friendly and kind. Our key people in particular have been amazing, especially when we were nervous first time parents! Our boy
is naturally quite quiet, but coming to nursery has helped him develop from nerves to confidence. We are very sad to have to leave but have some brilliant memories and friends to take with us!

Our son Freddie has been welcomed into the family with open arms. We are so thankful to the wonderful staff here for making our son feel extremely comfortable in his new surroundings. Everyday I pick him up I see a new improvement in his development and learning. There is a real sense of family here
at the nursery and I am proud to be a part of it and watch our son there in a happy and caring environment.

Excellent experience. Very kind and professional staff very supportive for both: child and parents. Child eat well, I don't need to worry about this side. I see huge improvement in my son learning ect. I am incredibly pleased that we choose this nursery, as I cannot imagine the better end.

The University of West Cambridge Nursery is truly the best you could ever ask for. My son started there when he was just one year old, and since then, it has become his absolute favourite place to be. He loves spending time at the nursery, and I can see every day how much he thrives in their care.
Everyone at the nursery, from the management to the staff, is incredibly friendly, supportive, and respectful of both my son's needs and ours as parents. What stands out most is the genuine care and individual attention each child receives. The team goes above and beyond to understand and support every child's unique needs, something I haven't seen in other places.
We feel so lucky to have chosen this nursery for our son. It's a nurturing, engaging, and truly special place, and I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Simply put, an excellent nursery! Our eldest thrived here and we're so pleased our youngest can now begin her journey. The staff are caring and understanding; it really feels like one big family. All ages have free flow into their dedicated outside areas, something we have struggled to find at any
other nursery. The learning encourages, support and extends.

I joined the nursery 6 years ago for my first daughter and came back for my second one. I love the fact that you feel at home, like in a family. I think kids feel this too. I have seen other nurseries but this one is the best. The way they look after kids and report to parents is very reassuring.
Kids do activities that I could never do at home.

Our child has been attending the nursery for almost a year now. He settled in very quickly when he first started attending the nursery. He really enjoys going to the nursery and there are always lots of different activities for the children to do to learn. Some the highlights included helping to
bake a cake. The staff are also very caring and most importantly, we feel we can trust them to look after our child. We are so happy to have chosen the nursery and a great thank you to all the staff at the nursery!

They have always looked after my son very well and he enjoys being at the nursery. In particular he enjoys the interactive learning.

We could not be more grateful for all the hard work of all the team at Cambridge West. Especially the manager, her dedication is outstanding. Two other members of staff are also invaluable assets to the nursery, and the support from another is incredible for our SEN child. They recently got awarded
their outstanding Ofsted rating, and it is very clear why. Absolutely well deserved! Thank you a million times over. So glad we found you. Our child has developed so much, and it is a huge credit to you.

The nursery has looked after both our children for a total of 7 years. We could not have asked for a better upbringing - they have been instrumental in their upbringing. They have helped them become kind, happy, friendly, confident and intelligent. The staff are both friends and family to us and we
couldn't have hoped for a better start for our children.

Overall, we are very satisfied with the nursery. Our daughter appears to be settled well and generally enjoys the nursery. I marked the learning as satisfactory as I need to gather more information on what the teachers think of her development. Her language is coming along slowly - she understands a
lot, but her talking is not as strong. Otherwise, her motor skills are good. She is getting quite emotional these days, but perhaps this is to be expected given her age.

West Cambridge nursery is a wonderful place! Both my children have loved their experience and adore attending and all the staff.

Amazing on all accounts. I would strongly recommend to all parents. This nursery gives me the confidence to go to work free from any concerns knowing my child is in excellent hands.

Excellent nursery for our son, who has grown with the support from amazing staff whom in every room support the children to achieve their best.

Excellent nursery! The staff are super kind and engaged. Best part is that one members of staff's mash potato is the best in the world... just saying.
4 members of staff in particular are a real asset (so are all the others!)
Well done to the entire team.

University Nursery at West Cambridge has been so welcoming to us and our son since we moved here in July. All the educators are so supportive of our son and have helped him settle into the new environment. They have also been instrumental in his recent development and education. We are thrilled with
the nursery and all of the staff, it is a fantastic facility.

Throughout the four years, my daughter attended University Nursery at West Cambridge, she was exceptionally well cared for and looked after. She was provided with a safe and stimulating environment in which to grow, learn and have fun. The staff always showed my daughter great care and treated her
and us (me and my wife) with genuine respect. We appreciated frank, useful feedback and insight into our daughter's development and behaviour at nursery. Very happy.

West Cambridge is a wonderful nursery. My baby daughter settled right in. She had so much fun explaining and learning new skills. I can see the difference when she comes home! The practitioners are so kind and attentive and are clearly very invested in my daughter's well-being. It's a pleasure
getting to know the staff and see my daughter happy at the end of the day.

Very good. The best in Cambridge. Multiple particular members of staff plus all teachers form our best memory of the UK.
