Overall Experience

My daughter has just finished here, she started at 9 months and has now gone to school.
Bright Horizons Wooldale Early Care & Education Centre is a fantastic nursery and the level of care and compassion is amazing, which really sets your mind at ease.
My daughter was born during Covid times and wasn't

used to many different faces but all of the staff welcomed her so well, she settled in very quickly and loved all of her time here.
The nursery has supported all of the difficult milestones, such as teething, learning to crawl/walk, potty training, getting rid of dummies. All of these have been supported in whichever way I have requested and they have always encouraged me, as a parent, that I am making the right decisions.
Every day when taking my children into nursery I can see the care and effort made to set up nice activities in each of the rooms ready for the day.
If you are considering a nursery, please take a look and see for yourself what an amazing place it is and what wonderful and caring staff work there as well.

Overall Experience

Bright Horizons Wooldale Early Care & Education Centre is fantastic. They have an excellent manager and staff that take care of your child's development and provide progress reports. They do have excellent facilities. The extra care and needs that were required for our daughter's development was taken

care of.
I would recommend the nursery to everyone.

Overall Experience

Our child really enjoyed attending Bright Horizons Wooldale Early Care & Education Centre after having a poor experience with another preschool.
There was flexibility around pick-up/drop-off times and the consistency of the daily routine made transitions easier. There was a good blend of playing and

learning and our child made good friends at the preschool. The food standard was very high and so was the level of cleanliness.
Staff were friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable.

Overall Experience

The care my daughter received was brilliant, she always came home happy and had many compliments about the food. Despite staff changes, I never felt a change in the standards of the nursery and my daughter felt a connection with all members working there. I thoroughly enjoyed the daily updates via the

app to see what she got up to with her friends. We look forward to our newest addition starting next year.

Overall Experience

Wooldale is fantastic. When we viewed the nursery after seeing a couple of other we knew there and then it was the place we wanted our child to join.
The staff are fantastic, they really invest their time in your child ensuring they can learn and thrive in the environment. The curriculum and learning

materials is so vast that they will learn and not get bored just being left to play all the time, even nature trails and seeing the local sheep!
The food is also a massive topic, the menu is so vast catering for all dietary needs but also encouraging to try new food which then transcends down to eating well at home as well. Chicken Korma, roast dinners, cous cous chicken to name a few!
Go take a tour, you won't be disappointed.

The staff at Wooldale have been excellent in supporting our daughter with her journey at nursery. They identified extra needs in our daughter and did everything they could to ensure her experience in the nursery was positive and fulfilling and adapted to her requirements. Couldn't fault the team.

Overall Experience

What I like most about the preschool is they seem to be led to some extent by what the child wants to learn or by their academic stage. They make sure they are ready for school in every way. They don't just support up to where they are on paper. I really like that the preschool is on a school site.

It helped the transition to school by already being in an educational setting. The classrooms feel the same. It is completed different to what I thought I wanted for my child, but this preschool is much better than my other child's past preschool at working towards the transition to school, which is what preschool is all about.

My daughter didn't start nursery until she was two years old. She was extremely nervous, to begin with, but soon came to love everyone looking after her. This nursery has been the best thing for her. She is now so ready to start school, and that is all down to Bright Horizons and the wonderful people

who work there. They even managed to get her to eat vegetables! Thank you will never be enough for these amazing people. Thank you!

My son has attended the nursery for over a year. The staff are second to none. They are attentive, fun and focused on delivering learning through play and creative activities. My son has made some lovely friends and has developed a strong bond with his key workers. Couldn't recommend more to other parents.

Great place for little people to flourish.

Overall Experience

My son has thoroughly enjoyed his time and experiences at Wooldale. He's learnt so much since joining at about 2 years old. His speech and use of words is great. He's good at learning to write and recognise his name. You can tell the staff enjoy their job and put lots of effort in with the children.

My son loves his keyworkers and they've taught him lots of different things and how to be good around other children. They learn a lot and have lots of great experiences. Any queries we've ever had as parents have always been dealt with promptly and the staff are very helpful!

Overall Experience

From the offset, my experience of putting my 5 and a half-month-old baby boy into this nursery has been fantastic.
Undoubtedly, I was nervous about leaving my little boy for the first time but the staff at Bright Horizons (Wooldale Road) were amazing. Upon my first ‘settling in’ session. I met the

manager and those who would be looking after my little boy- they were all equally as excited to be welcoming him into the baby room. I could tell from meeting the girls in the baby room that they loved their jobs and this eased my mind so so much.
After a few settling in sessions, it was time for me to leave him on his own for a full day… I think I was more nervous than he was!!! I cried, and the ladies reassured me that they would be in touch via the new app. This has been THE most reassuring element. To be at work, and receive a little photo of my boy sleeping or playing in the garden really does make all the difference. The app also logs food, sleep and changes. It’s amazing.

Overall Experience

Since moving into preschool my son has developed so many skills and one member of staff has supported him to write his name. She has built my sons confidence and he loves to attend the nursery. The opportunities provided are amazing, my son is nurturing a runner bean plant and wants to grow other plants,

his number skills have really grown and each day he gets more ready for school.

I am very happy and pleased with all the services from Wooldale nursery. My son is very happy since he started there. I can see a massive difference; he is getting more and more confident, friendly and independent. I would recommend this nursery to everyone, especially for the friendly staff that are

the heart of the place. The manager couldn't be nicer and friendly. I couldn't be happier for my son. Thank you, Wooldale nursery.

Lovely nursery with amazing staff providing different activities for children to grow all the time. Our son loves to go to nursery and explore something new every day. The staff are amazing, they provide the best quality ever, supporting children and parents all the time. Our son started here in September

last year and we could say that it was the best choice for him. From the day he started his settling, until now, everyone helped and supported him. He's really confident and happy to play with his friends during the day and learn new things.
Thank you everyone for your support!

My son went to Wooldale and absolutely loved it and learnt so much and had so much fun and loved the staff. I now have my daughter here, who started recently and she has settled in incredibly well. She just walks right in and not once has complained and whenever we say she is going, she always gets

excited and goes to get her little bag. The staff are absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend Wooldale.

Fantastic nursery, really happy I choose Wooldale Nursery. My son has flourished since attending last year and whenever I pick him up at the end of the day he is always happy. Staff have been amazing and brilliant at bringing normality to life in the midst of the pandemic. I feel they really do put

the children safety first which eases any anxieties as a new mum.
