    Our son absolutely loves it here and has a excellent relationship with his educators and carers. We adore to see the photos of his childcare centre day on the online discovering portal and all the lovely arts and crafts that he brings home. There’s such a wide range of activities that I sense are helping to shape our son into a super little person. We would suggest this childcare centre without question.

    However, these transitions and turnovers have been well managed and caused no impact on the care and assistance delivered to my kid which is commended. My daughter has received outstanding care and assistance and has formed close bonds with her key workers. My daughter has flourished from attending the childcare centre and we will miss all the team when she starts school in September. In the 3 years that my daughter has attended the childcare centre, there has been a regular turnover of team particularly approaching new academic years.

    The opportunities and activities open to the kids is exceptional. Kids are challenged to make development through discovery, teamwork, and playtime. A mix of indoor and outdoor activities all year round. The team know each kid so well and genuinely care about their happiness and development. My little boy has been so cheerful here for 2 years. A fantastic childcare centre with dedicated and attentive team in a lovely setting.

    It was highly hard to find the one we would like. Akeley Wood Childcare centre was the one that left a excellent impression. The team are highly expert. The childcare centre itself has a lovely layout. There’s incredible space outside for kids to run and explore. They also have a forest school which is a excellent place for kids to learn and be in nature. My daughter has been going to the childcare centre for over a year. She truly enjoys it. Every time I pick her up she says how much enjoyable she had that day. We will be taking our second daughter to Akeley Wood Childcare centre too. Highly suggest this place. We were looking to put our daughter in childcare centre for some time.

    I had nothing to worry about though as he absolutely loves it. The updates throughout the day is exceptional and I sense well informed on what my son has been up to. The childcare centre educators are so lovely too and consistently take the time to talk to me about the day when I pick my son up. It’s a lovely childcare centre and highly well run. My son has just started at Akeley Wood Childcare centre and I’ve been so worried about him going as he’s only 2 and has spent the whole of last year obviously in lockdown with just me.

    Our little boy joined at 12 months and settled truly quickly. The team are excellent: attentive, compassionate and supportive. And the activities the kids get to do are remarkable and truly varied. The facilities are also lovely – particularly having such a lot of external space. We’d suggest it to anyone. We highly suggest Akeley Wood.

    The opportunities available to him are outstanding and the care and attention he receives from team are faultless. My son joined the childcare centre 8 months ago and has settled in so well.

    My two kids, currently 3 years and 2 years of age, absolutely adore going there.
    Akeley Wood Childcare centre ups the standard in terms of not only minding your kids, but also attentive for their developmental development.
    They want your kid to be best prepared for the start of their academic lives by providing them with forest school, arts and crafts, languages and IT skills.
    They consistently update the childcare centre system so you can see how your kid has done throughout the day, along with pictures, videos and text to show you what they’ve been doing.
    The team consistently respond as soon as they are able to, with any queries you may have. Truly exceptional childcare centre filled with the most fantastic members of team.

    The childcare centre team have all been excellent and he definitely gets to participate in a wide variety of different discovering experiences. It’s excellent when we get to see photos and videos of this. My son started at the childcare centre 10 months ago and the journey has been outstanding.

    The location is highly picturesque and yet safely away from the busier local areas. I would suggest this childcare centre. Outstanding childcare centre, the team are truly welcoming and attentive and we receive lots of pictures and updates throughout the week to keep us informed.

    They get so excited to drive up, see the team and do exciting new things. From music lessons, to forest school, enjoyable playtime time and creating a perfect start to introducing early discovering, I cannot thank the childcare centre enough. My daughter (and my son before her) adore going to childcare centre every day.

    This is balanced with a highly healthy approach to outdoor activities, sports, forest school, etc. My daughter has progressed rapidly and the team’s encouragement has been perfect in every way for her to development to the next stage of her education. I would highly highly suggest this childcare centre. The strength of this childcare centre is that each kid is treated as an individual and nurtured to develop self‑assurance, social skills, kindness, and understand their feelings and emotions.

    They have made a significant difference to my kid’s upbringing in a positive and attentive setting. Outstanding attentive team who are consistently expert, attentive, and supportive. The physical education and forest school are our favourites. They genuinely strive to make a difference. Outstanding day childcare centre.

    My little one has thrived under the care and supervision of the fantastic people at Akeley Wood Childcare centre. The opportunities and adventure they provide have impressed me. I have a well-rounded confident girl as a result! A exceptional setting for little ones to grow and learn.
