My daughter has been at Woodlands House for just over a year. She started in the babies room and towards the end of last year, moved up to the toddler room. Woodlands House is a wonderful nursery where the team are so caring and creative in what they do with the children. Throughout the pandemic (which
must have been a very difficult and uncertain time for the staff), they have remained calm and always so welcoming and friendly when the children arrive which instantly puts you at ease. They regularly communicate with us through emails and newsletters and plan great themed play around special occasions and days (e.g. more recently Australia day). During the lockdown, it was my daughter's birthday and she couldn't see family or friends and so they threw a party for her at nursery. It's all these things which make it such a special place and the people who work there wonderful. The team always take an interest in what the children are interested in and plan things around these interests.

My daughter settled immediately into Woodlands House, despite this being the first time away from us due to lockdown. The staff in the baby room are wonderful and give her lots of lovely experiences. She's built a lovely relationship with her keyworker but is happy to be handed over to all of the members
of staff when I drop her off. The daily communication is great and we can see what she has been doing through her online learning journey and on their Facebook page. Having previously been a deputy manager in another nursery, the homely atmosphere and happy children we saw when we first looked around put me at ease and gave me confidence that this was the right place for my daughter. I would have no hesitations in recommending Woodlands House.

I would highly recommend Woodlands House to any parent. Both, staff and setting are amazing, my little boy loves every day there since he started attending at 8 months old. He learns something new every day and he will be well prepared to start school. We couldn't wish for a better nursery for our boy.

Woodslands is a great nursery, and my daughter has settled in perfectly. The staff are very accommodating and my daughter has lots of friends and looks forward to going every morning. All the staff are very helpful and kind and take care of my daughter very well. There are always lots of activities
that are going on at the nursery, and the pictures provided online are great to see things that my daughter does throughout the day. Thank you to all the staff and I'd be more than happy to recommend this nursery.

Woodlands House is an amazing nursery. All the staff or so welcoming and caring. My son started when he was two and he was such a shy little boy, now nearly four, he has really come out of his shell and is so much more confident and that's to do with the staff making him feel so welcome and putting
the time/effort in with him. He loves going every day now.
I wouldn't want him anywhere else, amazing nursery and amazing staff.

Woodlands is a great nursery.
The staff are always really friendly and I always feel that when I drop my daughter off in the morning she is in the best hands.
She loves going there and has really settled in well.
She is the third of our children to go to Woodlands, which says all you need to know
about how happy we are with the nursery.
When our other children moved onto Primary School they found it easy to fit in with their classmates and the curriculum, as they had learnt so much from being at nursery.

Excellent setting throughout. All the staff are professional, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They go above and beyond to make sure the children are cared for incredibly well. It is lead by a strong, approachable manager, who is always available and knows what is happening at all times in the nursery.
Our child loves going to nursery, and is very content and happy to go, this is all due to the excellent facilities and care offered at Woodlands House. Having 20 years of nursery background and having worked in and looked at many nurseries, I can honestly say this is one of the best nurseries around and would certainly recommend it to everyone, go take a look for yourself, and hopefully, you’ll be as impressed as I am.

My son is currently attending Woodlands House and he absolutely loves it.
All of the staff are fantastic with the children in regards to their development, he really enjoys the food that is provided and although fortunately, I have never been part of any safeguarding issues, their policy is second
to none. They provide a caring but professional service through the stages of the nursery.
All 3 of my children have attended this nursery over the past 11 years and when my son leaves in August it will be sad to leave the nursery behind. I'm thankful for them to have been part of all my children's journey, helping to give them a positive start to their life.
Thank you.

My daughter started Woodlands House in spring 2018, after viewing several nurseries where she was far more reserved. But at Woodlands House she got involved straight away, never tears about being left at nursery. I've watched her learn and develop so much in 18 months. Every day she comes home excited
to tell anyone who will listen all about what she's learnt and what she's been doing. Even on holiday she asked if she could go to nursery. The team are great with her and never have an issue catering for her vegan diet.

Woodlands House really is a fantastic nursery. My little boy has settled in extremely well and has a really lovely bond with all the staff in the baby room. He has progressed so much since starting back in March. His learning book is full of videos, pictures and comments which I think is a really brilliant
way of keeping us parents up to date, I love seeing what he gets up to! The food options are great, we often see "x2" on our daily report cards as he really enjoys them. Wouldn't hesitate recommending Woodlands House to anyone at all, it was the best decision we made sending our little boy here and we look forward to him moving up in to the toddler room to continue his journey.

My daughter settled in straight away at Woodlands House after having attended another nursery in the local area. She has bonded with all the staff, she has been at the nursery now for 9 months and has really progressed in her time there. All the staff are fantastic and encouraging, they always keep
me updated on how she has been throughout the day. The children are always busy with activities and these are shared through the learning book. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough.

I cannot speak highly enough of Woodlands House, from my first viewing to my daughters settling in sessions and all the way up to the toddler room. She is thriving! The selection of meals is great and the nursery is clean and welcoming. The environment is relaxed whilst still maintaining a high level
of professionalism. The staff are fantastic with the children, they are encouraging and engaged. My daughter's online learning journal is frequently updated and her key workers have always made such a huge impression on her, which is a testament to how much they are invested. The nursery manager is really easy to communicate with and is always quick to respond to any communication. My daughter always leaves in the best moods and chats about the stuff and the other children which is just lovely. Would recommend without hesitation! Thanks Woodlands.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.833)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.833) out of 10 for Partou Woodlands House Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.955 for Partou Woodlands House Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (149 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.955

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.878 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Woodlands House Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 74 number of registered child places is 14.8. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.8 = 0.878

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Charlotte Hargreaves

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2008

ABOUT ME:
I started at Woodlands House in 2008, aged 16 years old, as an apprentice where I have worked my way up whilst gaining qualifications in childcare.


In my previous position as deputy manager, I regularly stepped up to the position of acting manager whilst also assuming the position at other Just Childcare settings. I pride myself in being a go-to person for support and have used my experience to support various managers throughout recent years.

WHY CHILDCARE?
My mum used to be a childminder which means I have always been around children since a very young age. What’s more, my older sister worked in a nursery where I would often help during school holidays.


I love seeing children develop and have fun. Being able to watch the children grow into the little characters they become makes my job priceless.


INTERESTS & HOBBIES:
I enjoy being on the go and always keeping busy whether that be going on holiday, meeting new people, camping in my tent, or simply heading on a walk.


My regular hobbies usually involve my dogs Lyla and Maya. I’m club captain/ head trainer at Calverley Chasers Fly Ball team where I compete regularly in national competitions and I also take them to sniffer dog training. Alongside all this, I have a little side business called ‘Let’s get Tuggie’, where I make individual canine enrichment toys from scratch.
