Wilmere Lane Nursery School

We recently moved our little boy to this nursery, due to some bad experiences at a previous nursery. The difference is amazing. The daily updates, the photos and the communication from this nursery is first class. Our little boy loves it and the nursery staff are brilliant.

An outstanding nursery and preschool, I would recommend with confidence. Wilmere Lane Nursery & Pre-school has excellent staff who genuinely care for all the children, superb facilities and high expectations in terms of safeguarding and child development. My children thoroughly enjoy themselves, they are well-fed, superbly looked after and their day is structured to engage and nurture their creativity and learning. The newly renovated preschool room is an inspiring space, blending learning zones such as Science, technology, engineering, mathematics, art, role-play and cooking in a big, beautiful and part brand new building.

My son has been at this nursery since he was 11 months old and is ready to leave in September for primary school. His development, while attending Playmates Wilmere Lane, has been amazing and the staff there are fantastic. He loves going to pre-school and they’re preparing him in the right way to leave. We have another son who we will be sending shortly and can’t recommend the nursery and staff enough for their kind and nurturing approach to the development of each individual child. Parents are well included and involved in the children’s progress and any queries and questions are dealt with straight away. Couldn’t recommend enough and looking forward to sending our second son and watching him grow.

My second child goes to playmates and he absolutely loves it. I wish I knew about this nursery with my first child. I love their values and beliefs. They also use holistic play which my son loves. Thanks to all of the ladies at playmates for looking after my son like their own.

My daughter is so settled in this nursery, the exploratory play allows her to use her imagination which has brought on her speech and language skills and allows for more creative play. The rooms are homely and comforting, the staff are so kind and caring, always answer my questions when needed and the use of the online diaries are fantastic. I love seeing little photos every day of my daughter happy. Would recommend to anybody, a real home from home, nourishing and caring environment for little people.

Quite simply, we cannot speak highly enough of Wilmere Lane Day Nursery. Both the facilities and staff are absolutely amazing and we couldn’t wish for a better environment in which to leave our son. In the past, we have used other nurseries in the area and also a childminder, neither of which compare to our experiences at Wilmere Lane. Our son was very nervous and unsettled when first starting, having been at home with us throughout the first lockdown. However, he was welcomed by all the staff and was treated with compassion on arrival to take away any doubts or worries we had – which was very important to us. He really enjoys his time at Wilmere Lane, he always leaves smiling and is full of stories of the day’s activities. We wouldn’t ever think of putting our son anywhere else.

I am so happy to send my daughter to Wilmere lane. From the moment I dropped her off at 12 months old, I feel she has been so well taken care of. The team show genuine warmth and care for the children. I like the curiosity approach to learning as I think it suits little ones learning and discovering their own likes/dislikes. I was thoroughly impressed at how prepared the nursery was with procedures/health and safety plans in advance of being allowed to reopen by following national closures of nurseries in 2020. It made me feel confident sending my daughter in, and that has continued. It’s exciting to see the huge investment in the pre-school area, which looks like it will be a fantastic learning environment for the future. This is particularly important to me as my child will be 5 when she starts school.

Our little girl has been going to Wilmere Lane for just over 12 months. I’m so happy and assured she’s in a safe, caring and supportive environment. The staff are fantastic and very attentive with both my daughter and us as parents. We’re enjoying watching her develop with the new skills she’s learnt at nursery and we know she’s happy and settled. I would highly recommend Wilmere Lane Nursery!

We have had nothing but an amazing experience with Wilmere Lane.
Our kids have loved every minute, we have two in two different classes and therefore have gotten to know nearly all of the staff who all can not do enough for the children, are so friendly and lovely.
We have been kept up to date with the children’s progress and learning experience. Would definitely (and have done) recommend anyone to send their kids here!

My two girls have been in Wilmere Lane for the past twelve months or so now and I could not be happier. Our eldest is two years old now and has progressed through two different classes. She’s loved everyone and bonded so well with her key person every time. She has trouble with her eating and sleeping but the nursery has been so accommodating with this and making it as easy as possible for her. Once our second was born we were keen to get her into nursery as soon as possible. She’s one now and has also progressed so much! The care and attention they receive is second to none. Thank you everyone at Wilmere for making our girls so happy!
