Westhill is the perfect setting. It inspires, nurtures and cares for young and developing minds. Our son is in his first year here and we cannot thank the team enough for all they do to guide, support and harness his independence and personal development. The setting is exquisite and the time, effort and love that is put into each room, the garden and the activities arranged for each day is so evident. Rambles, touch rugby, ballet - just a few of the amazing choices of activities at our children's fingertips. Our son is flourishing and will be very ready to move into Reception in September and that is all thanks to the amazing team at Westhill. We will be so sad for our son to say goodbye, but excited to walk back through the gates when our daughter starts in September 2026! Thank you Westhill!

Amazing nursery, takes learning seriously but also keeps it fun! Two of our children have attended and we fully intend for our youngest daughter to start when she can. Only drawback is that it makes you want your children to continue at the private school!

Westhill feels like a home from home for my son, he loves going in every day and some afternoons doesn't want to leave (!). The rooms within the building and the gardens are absolutely beautiful, the stuff children's dreams are made of - and there is a great array of activities, which vary greatly week to week. There is lots of outside time, including rambles and trips to the main school site, and there is no fear about getting muddy! The app is kept well updated with what they've been up to, and there are also daily personal updates so you know when they've napped and what they've eaten which I've found very useful. I've been amazed with the advances he has made with his speech and emotional/personal development - which has a lot to do with the very caring team fully investing themselves in each child's journey and meeting them where they are at. The transition to reception is very impressive too, which although a big milestone, will be one he will be very excited about!

After our first full year at Westhill Nursery with all the experiences we have gained we can truly say it is an amazing nursery. All staff involved in looking after the children are loving, patient and extremely competent. They manage to create a family-like atmosphere which gives the children confidence and strength. From a young age, children are taught in a very gentle and playful way. Even the transition to preschool is done in a buildup so the children feel comfortable with the change. Every step is well thought through in the interest of the child. Absolutely recommended.

Both our children have loved their time at Westhill, the care and support that is provided is unrivalled. It's warm and welcoming with the most inspirational spaces which clearly the children feel at home in. All the staff are kind, loving and diligent which feels so reassuring. Thank you Westhill, keep up the amazing work. It's making a difference to lots of little lives!

Westhill has been as close to a perfect setting as we could have hoped for. It is warm and caring and the children there always look happy. The days are really well structured and there is a lot for the children to do, indoors and out. Every one on the team is doing a great job there and I am so happy our daughter is at nursery there.

Westhill is absolutely outstanding in so many ways. The setting is the most beautiful I have been to and having put several kids through nursery and preschool and visited a few this is the best one I have seen. The communication and contact home is consistently brilliant as well. Not just in recording and uploading photos of what the kids are up to but also calling and checking in if my son is unwell or not been themselves. My son absolutely loves it there and I would recommend it to all parents.

Lovely nursery, my little one is thriving there and is excited to go and see his friends and caregivers. The staff have been very supportive with settling him in and helping with toilet training. He has really enjoyed all the lovely activities which are put on each day and he has been able to try out lots of new creative activities which he proudly brings home to show us. I know he will be sad to leave when he starts school in September.

Westhill Nursery is a fantastic, homely setting with friendly, caring staff and inspiring facilities. Both my children actively looked forward to attending each morning. The photos and debriefs on the app are informative and staff are always available to chat if needed. The journey from nursery into reception is well thought out and seamless. We couldn't have asked for more, highly recommend.

Our daughter started at Westhill Nursery in the summer and she loves it. In a short time, I have noticed her confidence grow and her language and development flourish. I have been especially impressed by the teachers who are so kind and nurturing and have got to know her really well. The activities are planned around themes and we receive updates on an app so we know what she has been doing and can talk to her about it at home. She often comes home with things from her day such as paintings, crafts, a new library book, cakes she has helped to cook or flowers, acorns and other treasures she's collected during rambles. The nursery building is beautiful with a large garden and the children also use the facilities on the school campus. We also appreciate the freshly cooked food and snacks and holiday club provision. I am really happy that we chose Westhill Nursery and so grateful to the teachers for creating a wonderful, nurturing and fun environment where I feel she is thriving.

My son has been attending this nursery for almost a year, he joined when he was 2. To start with he would get upset at drop off times but after the staff's caring and friendly approach he is very settled now. He loves going into nursery and thoroughly enjoys the holiday club they also offer. The children get to do so many different activities and it's amazing watching him grow and develop through all of the activities and care the staff put in. The nursery is extremely well managed and all of the staff are wonderful. The nursery is very well presented and clean, with extraordinary resources. We would definitely recommend this nursery to other people and we couldn't wish any better for our son.

My child literally runs to nursery, he enjoys all the activities and looks forward to see all the staff. He always talks positively about Westhill and we have never regretted choosing the nursery. Every week there are new activities and challenges for him.
