Overall Experience

Holmwood House is a fantastic nursery, my little boy has come on leaps and bounds in his development and I can only thank the fantastic team of ladies at Holmwood House. My little boy has built some fantastic relationships with his teachers and friends. My little girl has also recently joined the babies

room and she too is loving her time at Holmwood House.
The outside space and facilities are brilliant.

Overall Experience

Our little girl joined Holmwood House Nursery over a year ago. Most importantly, she absolutely loves going to nursery every day, she has made incredible friendships and bonds with all the adults in her room. The support and encouragement she receives every day has allowed her to flourish and become

an independent and confident little girl. The learning resources and activities that take place every day are incredible too. Especially in the year before heading to school. The app keeps me up to date with everything she is doing - I especially love the videos. I can not speak highly enough of the nursery and all the staff.

I have nothing bad to say. A unique setting in the middle of a wood and more importantly on my commute to work.

Plenty of parking and the occasional puddle to keep my shoes clean.

Great staff and safe environment for kids. My daughter always comes home happy.

Holmwood House Nursery is a fantastic nursery run by passionate and knowledgeable managers. The staff are kind and caring and make my son's days with them full of fun. My daughter also attended over 6 years ago. They were brilliant then and they haven't dropped the ball. Several of the staff who cared

for my daughter still work at the nursery now. Highly recommend

Overall Experience

My son has been going here now for 3 years since baby to now 4 years old. He absolutely loves coming to nursery. The outside space for each individual room is brilliant, well adapted to fit the age of the children, and the encouragement to spend as much time outdoors is fantastic. The staff are an absolute

credit to this nursery! From the overall managers, to the key workers, to the assistants and learning support. My son has come on leaps and bounds at the nursery and we will be extremely sad when he leaves. They offer such great activities for all children, and the food options are way better than my son even gets at home! Including a roast dinner most weeks. I cannot find any faults at all with the nursery, and would encourage any parent to go visit and see how good it is!

Overall Experience

My son started nursery at 8 months old and since the first day I felt happy to leave him in his key person's care. He settled very well thanks to the lovely staff and to the always open communication channels between home and nursery.
The activities on offer are always age-appropriate but also tailored

for the individual children’s interests and needs.
The two managers are always happy to help and demonstrate true commitment and love for their job every time they talk with the children under their care.
Holmwood House Nursery is one of the best decisions that we could make as parents.

An absolutely amazing nursery! The staff are outstanding and go above and beyond for the children. The management are also incredible and very approachable. The food provided is delicious and nutritious. Allergies are excellently provided for, including ensuring that all children can join in with cooking

activities and try what they have made. The activities are engaging and focused on helping children to progress. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Holmwood to anyone!

Overall Experience

Wow! My youngest son attends 2 days a week and loves his time there.As a child who has several medical 'issues' I was apprehensive about leaving him in the care of anyone else. I needn't have worried! They take his allergies and associated anxieties towards food seriously, have always reassured him

that what he is being given is safe and encouraged him to explore and try new foods. Academically he is well challenged and socially they have given him the confidence to explore new situations. He is always excited to tell us what he has been up to and their use of Tapestry is amazing - I love getting a notification at work! All the children thrive here, it is always clean and the opportunities provided are incredible. All those that work there are truly amazing people - supporting and reassuring not only the child but the parent too. I cannot fault this wonderful, welcoming nursery and my only two regrets are that I didn't start him sooner and that I didn't send his older brother there too!

My daughter has just started at Holmwood House nursery at the age of 8 months and wow I’m so impressed with the level of care that my daughter is receiving. Staff are very welcoming, even the staff that are not necessarily in my daughter's room. Staff are very supportive. It’s nice to see the different

selection of toys that are available. Tapestry is very easy to use and it’s great that we can log on to see what our daughter has been doing. Whenever we go to pick her up she is very smiley. Thank you Holmwood House Nursery.

Overall Experience

My daughter has attended the nursery since the age of 1. I was apprehensive returning to work leaving my daughter with someone else. I have never looked back. From day one, I found all staff extremely supportive, professional and they certainly go above and beyond their call of duty.

My daughter

now attends nursery four days a week. On our only day off, she wakes up asking if she can go to nursery! I believe this speaks volumes.

I frequently ask the girls for advice on education, behaviour (good and bad), toilet training, the list goes on. All of which we brainstorm together.

Between the girls and myself, we work closely together to develop my daughter. My daughter has formed close relationships with all her key persons during her time at the nursery.

The staff continue to make Holmwood House Nursery the best it can be and are a wonderful group of people and a credit to the nursery.

Overall Experience

My youngest son attends two days a week and absolutely loves it. He is always happy to go and comes home full of excitement with lovely things and to show or tell me about his day. They do all sorts from arts and crafts to Zumba to French lessons and not to mention 1-1 literacy time which will be such

a head start for him when he goes to school. The staff here are wonderful, they really took the time to get to know my son and our family (my oldest son attended Holmwood too) and always treat all the children in their care as valued individuals while helping them to understand the importance of boundaries - all of which I know will make the transition to school so much easier! Honestly, I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Holmwood House Nursery since the age of 1 (he is now approaching 2). He only does one day per week, but he absolutely loves his weekly trip to the nursery! The staff truly are the loveliest ladies and they really go above and beyond to make the days stimulating, fun and varied

for the children. As our son only does one day per week it took him a little while to settle into it at first, but since day 1 the staff have always been so welcoming, understanding and lovely, that we have always felt so happy and comfortable with him being there which is so important. We have no doubt that nursery is one of the key factors in building our sons confidence, he has come on leaps and bounds since attending there. They always have a yummy home-cooked lunch which is great, and we love keeping up to date with the 'Tapestry' webpage to see what our son has been up to! Couldn't recommend Holmwood House and its staff highly enough.

Our daughter has been attending Holmwood House Nursery for just over a year now and she absolutely loves nursery days. The nursery staff are always so lovely and welcoming to both parents and children and our daughter feels happy and content in their care.
Our daughter has a slight visual impairment

which all staff are aware of, they go above and beyond to make sure that the facilities and activities are suitable and safe. The staff have put together a care plan for our daughter which we all work together on.
We couldn’t ask for a better and safer environment to send our daughter and we are looking forward to her baby sister starting next year.

Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Holmwood Nursery since the age of nine months. The staff are very attentive and always so welcoming. It is clear to see our son has an enjoyable day by the smile on his face when we pick him up and the observations/ pictures posted to our private tapestry account. The staff

are very knowledgeable about our son likes, wishes and needs and are always happy to discuss any concerns that we may have regarding his development. The location of the nursery is beautiful, surrounded by woodland and open fields. This continues into the nursery by the wonderful outdoor space they have. He loves the delicious home cooked meals, we are told he always finishes his plate and asks for more. We are extremely happy with the care our son receives and feel that the friendly homely environment and helped him to become the cheeky, fun-loving toddler he is now. We would recommend Holmwood House Nursery to any parents looking for a nursery where their children can flourish and grow.
