We have 2 children in the nursery, one in the baby room and one in pre school. Our eldest has thrived in preschool since we moved to the area a year ago. We are so delighted in how she has come on and in particular we have been delighted with one member of staff has made to the room since taking over a few months ago. She is absolutely fantastic, we could speak more highly of her. Our youngest has only been in the baby room a couple of months but has settled in so well and is developing really well and all the staff are so warm with him. We love this nursery!

Great set of staff and setting, both our children have loved it and even during testing situations with staff absences the team have kept a high level of communication and have always achieved a high level of care. A big thanks to one staff member for always being there and always excellent.

Incredibly impressed with our experience of Woodlands Day Nursery, particularly the team and their enthusiasm and care. The nursery has improved a lot over the last 12 months. I'm always kept up to date with what's happening and a run down at the end of each day, they are always doing lots of activities and a mix of indoor and outdoor play. All of the staff are very personable and supportive.

Our daughter has been coming to Woodlands since she turned 1 and loves it! The staff are such a warm and caring team and the Manager has pulled out all the stops since becoming the Manager last summer. There are plenty of activities to keep the kids engaged and the food is varied and tasty (judging by the fact she always has double portions!). The classroom setting of the preschool should hopefully help with the transition into reception when the time comes.

Our daughter loves attending Woodlands Day Nursery. She is very happy and has settled really well. The themed days that take place as well as the events are always great ideas and well planned, for example, a visit of the fire engine and then learning continued focusing on fire. The days spent at nursery are never the same and lots of different activities are always done to ensure the children are stimulated.

I can highly recommend Woodlands Day Nursery. The staff are friendly, attentive and caring. They know every child so well and plan fun and interesting activities for them to enjoy. My son joined the baby room at 12 months and has settled in brilliantly. He loves Woodlands and has developed in so many ways since starting. I am so grateful to the staff for all of their kindness and support. They really do go the extra mile.

My boy has been going here since he turned two, and the change we have seen in him honestly makes us so proud. His teachers are unbelievably kind and thoughtful and have gone the extra mile every time to help with his needs. We will be sad to leave!

This is my first child and nursery was such a daunting thought, but I should not have worried. All the staff at the nursery are just lovely and amazing! When we went to look around we were greeted with smiles and everyone was so interested in our little one! The first impression was great! And they have not let me down one bit! Our little one loves going to nursery - he has the best time there and he is always so happy when he comes home! His development has flourished since he started and his language skills are also coming on great! They always have fun activities for the little ones - and make something special of marked occasions like Bonfire night, Easter, Christmas and Valentine’s Day! All the staff are very caring and friendly. Our little boy got poorly a few months after starting and I got a prompt call to come assess, we ended up in hospital for a few days after this and I was so impressed with how they handled it all and feel I can fully trust them to care for my little one!

My son has been attending Woodlands Day Nursery since 2021 when he was a year old. He is now 2 and a half and we are really pleased with the support he receives at nursery and how they engage him with his interests.

My son has attended Woodlands since 2021 and I have had a very positive experience. The staff are lovely, they genuinely care about the well-being and development of the children. The care my son has received is impeccable. The manager has been incredibly accommodating with changing days/patterns and nothing is ever too much trouble. The staff work so hard to provide fun, educational and creative activities and always make a fuss on special occasions such as Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Easter. They also have sign language and Spanish sessions which my little boy loves! Thank you all for your hard work and dedication, you really go the extra mile. Keep up the good work!

We started coming to Woodlands Day Nursery and Pre-school Harrogate about 3 years ago when our son was in the babies room and most of the staff, in particular the current manager have always been wonderful! There have been many changes and of course covid was a difficult time for all but the new nursery manager has stepped up and really turned things around, making some brilliant improvements! Our son is really happy there and has come on so much learning all sorts, he's even doing Spanish and sing and sign now! The new additions to the staff team are so friendly, welcoming and helpful and it's such a relief to know our son is somewhere safe and being well looked after!

An incredible nursery that cares very much about each and every child. Since new management last year, the nursery has come on leaps and bounds. Very, very fond of such an open yet structured learning style designed for each child. My child’s confidence and ability have come on leaps and I put that down to the nursery.

I adore Woodlands and the lovely staff. From the management all the way through, I've found Woodlands a very welcoming experience for us and our child. Upon the first visit, I was completely won over by the staff's delightful demeanour and this has been completely representative of the whole care over the last six months. The manager really cared and made me feel so at ease for the first settling in session which was so important and I've felt confident with them from the start. Especially because he started at 6-months-old so I did have my own concerns with him being so young. Nothing is too much trouble for the team and he leans over to go to them in the morning, then I'm greeted by a smiley, happy boy every time I pick him up. If he has a tricky day, they're there for cuddles to reassure him and I know he's safe, certainly well-fed (probably eating them out of house and home!), bonding with them all and learning so much. Love it!

Woodlands Day Nursery was recommended to us, and we are happy with our choice. All the staff is very helpful, kind and caring. The children have always some interesting activities and loads of fun. We started in the Tweenies room and now, our daughter is in the Pre-school room. Settling in was as smooth as possible, thanks to the staff and management. The food is like homemade and our daughter eats everything at Woodlands (she is sometimes a picky eater at home). It is a fantastic place for the children to develop, make new friends and learn, how to connect with others; to learn, that everybody is unique. If we had any issues or concerns, the management's response was quick and effective. The staff is always smiling, very creative, and always there for our little one, to comfort her, if she is missing us. We are grateful for all of their efforts and positive attitude.

Our daughter has a great time at nursery and is well cared for with interesting activities and enthusiastic staff. However, two lots of full week closures in one month is unmanageable for working parents. The staffing instability is very frustrating.

Woodlands has been the place for my 2 children over the last years (first child 9 years old, second child 3 years old). It was the best setting for my children as was encouraged and supported to grow in their unique little ways. The Covid 19 lockdown was a test for everybody and although it was a stressful time, we weren't let down by the dedication of the team. The keyworkers were so reassuring and worked through the lockdown which made me confident that my daughter is being cared for by the people she knew. There were those rocky moments when the whole management changed and then followed by so many policies and rule changes including staff changes. Since the arrival of the new manager, things have slowly got better which were quite reassuring to parents. This was seconded by the Deputy Manager, she's very supportive with queries and very helpful, not to mention how caring she is to babies at the Baby Room. My daughter will miss Woodlands especially the preschool so much.

I can highly recommend Woodlands Day Nursery and Pre-school Harrogate. The help and support we have received has been amazing. My youngest daughter has attentional needs and all the staff are going above and beyond to support not just her but us as well. All the staff are very friendly and caring which is very reassuring. My eldest has just left the nursery after 3.5 years and she loved her time there. I felt she was really well prepared to start primary school.
04 October 2021
Both our children attended Woodlands for 5 years between them and we were consistently impressed with their experience there. The staff were all friendly and extremely caring. We were very sad to leave.
04 October 2021
We’re really pleased with the activities and themed days which have been taking place in the pre-school room. Staff members are always friendly, regular catch ups are on offer and our daughter is happy there.
17 November 2020
My son started here 6-weeks ago, he had never been left anywhere before, and I was a little nervous, but the friendly staff at Woodlands have been able to settle him in really well. He now loves nursery and the variety of activities indoor and outdoor. He loves the homemade food, and the wide variety of different food is fantastic.
