Our daughter started at the nursery 2 months ago. We have had the most amazing experience right from when we submitted the registration form. The staff team are extremely passionate about their jobs and show how much they truly care about each and every child. The management team are very professional
and are really friendly. Our daughter has really developed in the short time she has been there and gets excited each time we arrive. I would highly recommend this nursery.

My little girl has always had a fantastic experience at this nursery - the staff are very friendly and informative when giving feedback at the end of the day. They plan lovely activities to engage the children based on the EYFS curriculum and provide regular assessments to inform parents about their
child's development. Highly recommended!

I was incredibly nervous about putting my child in a nursery. Walking into Westhill Corner, I got a positive feeling, and we enrolled our child. Our child went into baby room and absolutely loves it, and the practitioners give regular feedback on her progress and activities, which definitely eases my
anxieties. I like the monthly 'catchup' emails on nursery goings-on. But most of all, when my child sees the practitioners in their room, she has the biggest smile and always goes in for a cuddle. Thanks for being a 'home away from home'.

My little girls' confidence grows daily by attending Westhill Corner. At two years old she is always talking about what she’s been doing at nursery, as well as naming all the children she plays with. Never stops talking about her key worker. I would recommend this setting to anyone, there are plenty
of activities which are indoor and outdoor and the food is always a hit with my daughter.

Reply from Kim Lane at Westhill Corner Day Nursery & Pre-school

Hello Jackie, thank you so much for your wonderful review of Westhill Corner.

My daughter is always very happy to attend nursery. She goes two days a week and asks to see members of staff on other days.
Her development in speech and other areas has been fantastic. She enjoys a variety of activities and loves playing in the garden.

This nursery has outstanding staff. Since my son started last year, he has developed and progressed leaps and bounds.
He loves going to nursery and seeing all the staff.
He is always happy, clean and very well fed when collected.
Everyone has always been so accommodating for our needs, especially
regarding my son's allergies.

I am really pleased with the staff of the nursery: they engage children in several activities, both indoor and outdoor.
They are all very competent and loving, they are always available to provide us with advice and tips and they keep us informed on progress.
The only negative is about the limited
outside space, but the staff are always able to keep children involved in several activities that include gardening, agility exercises and role plays.

My son has been at Westhill Corner for 4 years and I have seen the nursery go through many improvements such as refurbishment and updating of toys and resources. I like how many educational resources are available in Preschool and I am impressed how attractive the staff have made the small outside space
which is full of educational resources including a mud kitchen. Inside there is a messy room where a group of children can get stuck into the great number of activities provided to aid the children's development. Staff have taken an interest in my son's passions hobbies, and provide fun activities for him. All the staff are friendly and approachable making it easier for me to ask them questions, relay information and voice my concerns. Feedback is given at the end of the day and behaviour issues are communicated and managed well.

My experience at Westhill Corner Day Nursery has been so positive, especially recently! My daughter had a rocky start here but her keyworker has brought her out of her shell so much and reassured myself also. I definatley would have taken a way out of nursery if not for her keyworker and now with the
addition of another lady in the toddler room I am fully confident in leaving my daughter here and know whe will be well looked after.

My Son has been at the nursery since February. He was reluctant at first as he was used to being with the family every day. The team always calmed him and within 6 weeks he started running in excited and talking lots about the care workers. His skills are coming on, as are his social skills.
We are
so happy he is staying until he starts school.

This was my first time using a nursery and my son has attended since he was 12 months old. He has now been at Westhill Corner for 6 months and has settled in and is thoroughly enjoying it. I was very apprehensive about him going to a nursery, worrying about someone else looking after him, but Westhill
Corner has totally surpassed my expectations. All of the staff are lovely and make you feel very welcome. There have been times recently where my toddler has not wanted to be collected and has headed in the other direction to carry on playing. I am very pleased with my choice of nursery and would recommend Westhill Corner to anyone looking at nurseries.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.770)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.770) out of 10 for Westhill Corner Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.870 for Westhill Corner Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (96 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.87

  • 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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Westhill Corner Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 39 number of registered child places is 7.8, which has been reached with 9 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2022

Hello,


My name is Lucinda and I am delighted to be the Nursery Manager here at Westhill Corner Day Nursery.


I have been working with children for more than 23 years and have 3 children of my own; Dylan, James and Millie.


After achieving my qualification in Early Years, all the way back in 1999, I was inspired to further my passion and enthusiasm for watching young children flourish and grow within a nurturing, home-from-home environment which I was part of creating.


I joined Westhill Corner with a wealth of experience, including 14 years as a Nursery Manager. Working with a company which has the same ethos and drive for creating an environment for your children as I do is an exciting adventure for me. I am looking forward to building relationships and working in partnership with you and your children.


My door is always open for you if you ever need to speak to me. With that in mind, arrange a consultation with me at your earliest convenience. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
