View Full Details of Woodlands Day CareI love working with the staff at Woodlands day care. They are so patient and loving with our children, always open to discuss and advise as to how our boy can settle effectively. The environment is stimulating, safe and beneficial for children's development
We absolutely love Woodlands! Ever since our son started there a year ago it's been brilliant. Every single staff member clearly cares a lot for each child and helps them learn and grow into wonderful people. The food is excellent and my son often has seconds or even a cheeky third helping ! He loves playing in the garden, which they have free flow access to. He enjoys getting involved in the activities and the zoo mornings touching insects and other creatures! Recently when I had a small complaint about something, I spoke to the manager who immediately implemented a change and I saw instant results and couldn't be happier. Not only do they care about the children but the adults too. If you are upset one day at drop off or pick up they'll do their best to ask you if you're ok too. We couldn't be happier at Woodlands and we highly recommend it.
The staff are caring and attentive, they plan a good variety of activities which encourage the children to explore and develop their skills. We enjoy hearing from them how he has enjoyed his day, both in person and through the app. We appreciate the record of developmental milestones and daily diary on the app.
Great nursery, with caring, friendly and approachable staff. Our kids have build real bonds with their key workers and look forward to going in every day. Facilities are very good and daily activities are varied meaning our kids come home with plenty to tell us.
My son has been in attendance since October 2024, and it has been incredible to watch his development since he joined. I love receiving the observations from his key worker to mark developmental stages and after a period of settling in, it's a joy to watch him go Into nursery with a smile on his face. The nursery is a very welcoming environment and they do a great variety of activities each day, as well as offering excellent healthy meals.
Overall, we are happy with the staff and our son's happiness at nursery. However, we have concerns about the frequent turnover of staff, as consistency is important for the children. Additionally, there have been extended periods where work was being carried out, reducing the space available for play and learning. We would appreciate clarity on how these issues are being managed.
The nursery has a wonderful home from home feeling and staff are incredibly committed and caring - special shout outs to three staff members in inventors. Three other staff members remain firm favourites with our daughter too. Activities are well thought through and the development of our daughter as she gets ready for school is evident. Thanks to the manager and the whole team.
We have been using Woodlands Nursery for the last 3 years, and have nothing but positive comments to share. Whilst we were very happy with everything prior to the family's first takeover, we would definitely agree everything has improved since. All members of staff are friendly, caring and nurturing towards the children. We like the child-led approach to learning through play as well as making the most of the outdoor space, which is much better now with less plastic and will be even better if it can be extended through to next door! The meals are wholesome and nutritious, with both my kids wanting seconds! Thank you all so much for looking after our children. Keep it up!
My son has been at Woodlands since he was 8.5 months old. The staff instantly made us and him feel at ease, he had no issues settling in and absolutely loves every day spent at nursery! All the staff are friendly, kind, caring, patient and sympathetic towards first-time parents (like us!) They always listen to any needs or requests and are happy to suggest solutions and help. It is wonderful seeing what he has learnt every day, how much he enjoys each day and how welcomed he is by all the staff. We are so glad we chose Woodlands!
I chose Woodlands Nursery because of a few initial reasons: When doing my research, their values and ethos of care matched my own as a person and a parent. There is a good mix of diversity within the staff. The nursery manager was so welcoming, and thorough and oozed supportive manager vibes (happy employees, happy children). I got a good feel whenever I communicated with the manager, and when I went to visit the nursery from the children and staff there. My daughter has been at the nursery for over six months now. She attends part-time, 8am-6pm, 51 weeks a year. She has a great relationship with her key workers, and I always feel they are looking out for her. The children are encouraged to be independent, and they learn through play. There are daily updates via the app. The main drawback is the size of the outside area, however, there is always a variety of activities for the children to do in the outside space. Overall, this is a nurturing, fun, encouraging nursery.
Our experience here has been wonderful. Having come from a negative previous setting I was nervous about putting my son in somewhere else but he is thriving! The team are all so polite and kind, really welcoming towards both the children and parents. The food is excellent! Overall he’s loving it and I am too, his key worker is fab and the communication from the management on the app is spot on. Highly recommend it.
