I cannot fault Wonderland Day Nursery. The staff, especially my daughter’s key worker, are friendly and safeguarding is clearly at the heart of their practice. The food is varied and my daughter often has seconds! I enjoy that they have extra curriculum events such as a signing class and tiny mites.
Communication is key, I am given a daily review of her day as well as a weekly newsletter which includes the menu for the following week. We are moving house otherwise we wouldn’t be leaving. Thank you!

Our little girl has been going to Wonderland 4 days a week since she was just over 10 months old. The baby unit was perfect for her needs and we were so impressed with all the staff and facilities. She built a close relationship with her key carer and she was really helpful if we had any questions or
concerns.


She's now moved up to 1-2s and the girls helped her make the transition seamlessly. She's really happy and getting up to all sorts of fun activities. We really feel our little girl is looked after and supported to the highest level and we would recommend Wonderland to anyone.

My partner and I are extremely happy with Wonderland nursery. Our child has had wonderful key workers, with whom he has a real bond. They are given lots of time in the outside play area, which is important to us as I think spending time outdoors is so good for children. They provide a variety of activities
such messy play, a music group and plenty of role play activities. They provide a learning journal to document what the individual child has been doing, with photographs. As well as showing progress of the child, it gives a real insight into what they have been doing on a day to day basis, and it is lovely to have such a comprehensive record of these early years.
The staff are always friendly and helpful, and as another reviewer mentioned, the door security is great.
The management team sends out weekly news emails with details about what the various age groups have been doing, and will be doing the following week.
I would highly recommend Wonderland nursery,

Since my daughter joined Wonderland Day Nursery in 2014 we have generally been pleased with the nursery. She had lots of allergies and they've always been great at finding ways to ensure she gets a free from version of what everyone else has. She has also loved each of her key workers as she has transitioned
through each age group. Their garden is great and the quality and cleanliness of toys much better than other nurseries we looked at. We also get full reports each day and proper chats with her key workers so we know how she's been. The nursery has been really good for our daughters development; she is very advanced with her talking and playing and she eats really well at nursery which makes a change from home!

Both my husband and I are very happy with the level of care my child receives at the nursery. She has moved through all the groups at the nursery from baby to 3-5's and all have met her needs. The staff are caring and kind. My daughter feels valued and cared for. She oftens talks about her keyworker
at home and always in a positive light. The children undertake a wide variety of activities from food tasting and cooking to drama and music, letter sounds, role play and small world play. As a teacher, I feel that they really do work on developing the WHOLE child. Children are encouraged to share their interests with the staff and interest is always shown.


The children's journals are sent home and the work towards the child development goals are shared on a regular basis. I have always found the staff helpful if there is a concern. The children's care plans are regularly reviewed and updated with parents. We chose this nursery because it is clean. The staff were helpful and knowledgable. The environment was a positive one and the children were happy and being actively engaged with by the adults around them. I also liked that in the baby group, they worked around MY CHILD'S sleep patterns and feeding times and they didn't try to get them to fit with their time lines etc.


The security at the door is also a strength.
