Super impressed with the nursery this time round with my 17-month-old. Particularly want to mention two specific staff members who do a sterling job of looking after my boy and the manager who is fab at linking in with me. They provide great activities, great food and super care for my little boy and one staff member in particular is super at the weekly updates of my very happy little boy. Highly recommend them!

Recently moved daughter to nursery a few months ago. She's settled in so well. She's so happy to go and is greeted with such a welcome. The activities they get up to are great and taking her for walks in the woods is a highlight. Lovely staff who work hard.

Amazing. That's the start. This nursery is the best thing I ever did for my children. My daughter is 3 and my son is 20 months, they had never been left with anyone. From starting with the settling-in sessions both children settled very fast, I was amazed. That to me was everything. We always get a detailed handover of what they have done/played with, eaten. They have key workers but also spend time carrying out different activities with the nursery workers. (Variety is always best for children). The food they have is nutritious and really good variety, some things I wouldn't think of making for them. They always try it which is good enough for me. The team there are so friendly and welcoming I actually feel like I'm just dropping the kids round to my friends. Room leaders give you a call before the start to go over what's needed and what happens. The manager goes above and beyond to help with extra hours. But everyone is top class and I feel privileged to send my kids there.

My toddler is always so excited to see her teacher each morning, which is a wonderful sign of how much she enjoys her time at Woodleys Park Day Nursery! Although she isn't speaking yet, the photos the staff send say it all- she's always engaged and happy during the activities. It's heartwarming to see her smiling and having such a great time each day. I'm so grateful to the caring staff for creating a positive and fun environment where she's clearly thriving.

Terrible nursery. We enrolled our son in August 2022, he had just turned 3 and this was his second nursery in Northampton. We pulled him out by November that same year. We were never taken for a tour through the nursery or his room. Every time we asked for a tour they said they would do a virtual tour via call and never called us. It was never clear who his key worker was until 3 months after he had been there. There were new workers every other week and they would constantly ask my partner who he was here to collect despite him being on the collection list and even dropping our son off that same morning. After nearly 3 months the workers would say that he still plays by himself, and doesn’t really get involved in group activities - if there even were any. He began crying at drop-off and not wanting to go to nursery. This was a red flag for us because that is not normal behaviour from him. We were never given any progression reports of his learning or anything practical about his education.

Since joining Woodleys Park, my 2-year-old has come on leaps and bounds. She can't wait to get into nursery every morning which makes me feel happy on my way to work. At pick up time, she's full of smiles and can't wait to show me all of the fun things she has done that day. The staff are really friendly and made me feel so at ease when leaving my child in their care. Brilliant nursery would recommend to anyone!

After reading a bad review regarding this nursery I was unsure as whether to visit. I'm so glad I did! My daughter who can be very clingy, settled in straight away. As I work within education I can be quite picky, but was pleased to see it was a fantastic stepping stone in learning before starting school, so I was so relieved that even I couldn't find anything wrong. The staff are lovely always happy and always seem pleased to see my daughter when we arrive, and my daughter is always pleased to see them. Definitely worth a visit.

Both my children who are 1 and 3 started the nursery in March this year and all I have seen is the positive effect the brilliant nursery and its committed staff have had on them. I have recommended them to my friends and family and think the decision to send them to nursery rather than a childminder has enabled them to become confident and sociable. I find the staff extremely easy to talk to and very willing to help at all times. There is nothing else me and my partner would want. Woodleys Park has exceeded our expectations.
