    The team at Woodside nursery are amazing! Each member of staff is welcoming, friendly, approachable and so good with all the children. My little boy was a little behind with his development, which since being at nursery, he has progressed very quickly. He has such a strong bond with the staff that when he does get a little worried, he’ll approach them for cuddles or reassurance. He absolutely loves being there. And they update you with the child’s learning journeys, how they do at the sessions, what they’ve eaten, what they’re achieving. Would 100% recommend this nursery!

    My daughter loves going to Woodside nursery. She loves to tell me about her day and how much fun she has had. She is always happy after a morning at nursery. I love that she gets to spend so much time outside.
    The staff are always welcoming and my daughter is always happy to see them. They are really easy to talk to if you have any concerns and reply to messages on the online journal very quickly.

    What I love most about Woodside is the genuine and personal connection both the staff (and management) have with children and families who use the service.
    You get regular updates on your child’s progress/development. We viewed a number of nurseries locally before settling with Woodside, and we are confident we made the right decision for both of our children. I have already recommended this provision to a number of friends locally. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication.

    Our son started at Woodside nursery in January 2021 after being born just before the first lockdown. As he hadn’t met many people, we were concerned about how he would react to so many new faces and cope without his mum, but all the staff are so welcoming. He has settled so well we couldn’t be happier.
    He gets to try different foods and activities which we may not have thought of at home, which is great, an added bonus is he always sleeps well after a day at Woodside.

    Always met with a smile, kept informed every day via the app and in person. My son is always happy and excited to attend the setting. The whole staff have been absolutely amazing throughout the whole pandemic and should all be extremely proud of themselves for continuing to provide amazing care, well-done ladies!

    Our daughter has been at The Woodside since she was 10-months-old and is now 2 and a half. After being quite an anxious baby being left, she quickly got used to the environment and quickly enjoyed her time at The Woodside. She is always excited to go and really gets on well with all of the staff. She loves the food there too.

    The team are able to keep the same sleeping/eating routine as we have at home, which is important for me. She’s been developing really well since she’s been at The Woodside and has learnt things that we’d never even think of doing at home.

    She spends a lot of time outdoors, which I like, especially when the weather is nice, but even playing in the muddy puddles.

    We like seeing the updates.

    I have no doubt that this is an exceptional nursery because of the team working there, who have a great attitude from the top down, and back up again.

    My son only recently started at The Woodside. The staff are wonderful, and my son absolutely loves his time there and the variety of activities they do. I love that he is so keen to go into the nursery when I drop him off.

    I am unbelievably happy we are with everyone’s hard work and support there has been for my two children at the nursery. The improvement we have seen in both of them is amazing. The love they have each day going into nursery and seeing all the members of staff they have working with them every day.
    The facilities and support available to the children is amazing. The food provided is always wonderful and both my children eat so well.
    I can’t explain how happy I am dropping them off each day and seeing their happy faces. As a working mum it relieves so much pressure for me. Thank you so much everyone you are all doing amazing!

    The staff at Woodside are amazing! My son is very happy there and they are so welcoming every morning he goes in with smiles and returns with smiles. The app is also great. I love that I can see how my little man is getting on without having to contact them directly. If we have a bad start to the day, I get regular picture updates and can see how calm and what a good time he’s having. He has come so far going to Woodside; becoming more interactive with other children and learning to share. He has had a brilliant time with all the staff I can’t put into words how lovely they all are. Would highly recommend to anyone asking for a small, local nursery.

    My daughter loves this nursery. She started just over a year ago. When my daughter first started she was very nervous and had a speech delay. Since starting at The Woodside Centre her speech and learning skills have improved massively. The staff are really friendly and cater for all of our needs as a family as well as my daughter’s own individual needs.

    My daughter has been going to The Woodside Centre for almost a year now and she loves it. Every day she goes, she runs in happy and smiling. The staff not only make her but also makes the parent feel very welcome every day. They get up to lots of different activities every day and with an app, I can check in and get updates on what she is up to. Plus, we get to see how she develops over time which is lovely with pictures and a note from her key worker. My daughter loves going to nursery and gets excited whenever I mention going.

    Our little boy is always so happy when he’s been in.
    The staff are really understanding towards us as a family, the early years manager stands out to us as being supportive, kind caring and understanding.

    This is a fantastic nursery and my child loves going there every week. Since starting, he has grown as a person in everything and every time he runs in to all his friends and all the lovely staff members.

    My son loves this nursery. He started at nine months and we have felt so supported by the manager and her team. Everything from the activities, food, app and communication has been brilliant and we could not recommend it more highly.
