September 27, 2024 at 11:10 amMy eldest daughter also attended from three months old.
Woodlands team ensure my kid is secure at all times. They share development and snapshots of my son’s development whenever I ask to see his Discovering Story. I am aware of his next steps through this process too.
My son is consistently highly cheerful to go to childcare centre and the team are welcoming, inviting and welcoming to parents and kids. I have consistently felt that my kids’s needs have been addressed. The displays on the wall are vibrant and show a range of activities that the kids have taken part in. We value the fact that all festivals are celebrated and different events are observed that reflect diversity and promote tolerance. The food provided is stellar – varied, healthy and interesting. An incredible setting with expert team – highly recommended. My kid has attended since he was five months old and he is now nearly two.

October 1, 2024 at 5:52 pmYou are the best! What a lovely place!
We’ve been with Woodland Childcare centre for over a year, and there’s nothing bad for me to say about it.
Such welcoming team, consistently supportive and welcoming.
My son loves it, and I can clearly see his development.
Well done guys!

November 3, 2024 at 8:36 pmThe setting, ethos and team provide a wonderfully stimulating and nurturing setting for our son. He has formed inviting bonds and comes home having learnt new things about the world, which is consistently a pleasure to see. He looks forward to each day there and has truly thrived. We couldn’t be happier! We’ve had a fantastic journey over the past year with this childcare centre!

November 6, 2024 at 6:42 amBoth of my kids absolutely adore Woodlands. The childcare centre was terrific in the way they managed the settling-in period. We had a highly smooth transition from the settling-in period to dropping the kids off for their full days at childcare centre.
The team are expert, compassionate and highly attentive. We receive lovely updates and communications about what the kids have been doing.
Recently our son came home telling us all about the volcanos they had created in childcare centre. He’s excited going into childcare centre which truly highlights the nurturing setting created by Woodlands.
My kids have truly progressed in both speech and understanding of the world around them and I sense the childcare centre has truly supported this. They create a space which allows my kids to feed their curiosity with the setting in childcare centre, toys, books, projects but most importantly the interaction with the team. My son started Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands in September 2022 and my daughter started in May 2023.

November 7, 2024 at 6:21 pmMy daughter is being introduced to new things constantly through role playtime and educational games/discovering, which I am highly cheerful about. Highly cheerful with how the childcare centre has handled the Covid situation – providing a secure setting for my daughter.

November 8, 2024 at 6:56 amThey know how to keep him engaged and development in his development which has come on leaps and bounds since starting at this setting. He’s managed to forge some outstanding friendships here as well.
The menu is varied and we know our son is getting a varied and healthy diet, whilst consistently catering to his allergen requirements.
Updates with management is open, easy and the updates and development reports we receive on our son through the app makes such a difference to us. Our journey of Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands has been outstanding.
The team have brought out the best in our son, filled him with abundant self‑assurance and he’s consistently so cheerful to be there.

December 22, 2024 at 10:49 pmSince my kid has joined the childcare centre his development has progressed truly well.
The team are so welcoming and welcoming.
My son loves going to childcare centre and I sense at ease knowing he is cheerful.
Thank you Bright Horizons Woodlands for everything you do.

December 24, 2024 at 2:35 pmShe is equally cheerful when we pick her up, and she tells us about her day, her activities and her friends (classmates and team). Since day 1, the team and management have been supportive and consistently been prompt at responding to messages and queries. One issue we had was dealt with professionally and with empathy. I couldn’t be happier knowing my daughter is in a welcoming and attentive setting. As a parent, there is nothing that makes me happier knowing my daughter is so cheerful to go into “school” in the morning, we barely get a wave.

December 28, 2024 at 12:09 amIt truly feels like a second home for our kids. I will definitely suggest this childcare centre. This is an outstanding childcare centre with such a attentive and inviting team who truly adore and delight in working with kids.

February 9, 2025 at 8:57 amShe had some of the best caretakers in The Pine Room. The transition to Pre-School Room was also smooth. Looking forward to more discovering as she starts preparing for reception next year. Would also be excellent if the childcare centre is able to do some outdoor walks in the grounds or the greens. Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands Day Childcare centre and Preschool have been a respite in the pandemic with consistent care being provided to my toddler aged 3.

February 25, 2025 at 2:07 pmHe absolutely loves his childcare centre days and it’s been so lovely to witness his development under the staffs care. He has built some lovely relationships and it’s nice to see he still remembers many of his carers, even from his first room. From the highly first day, the manager and all the team have been outstanding at working with us to ensure he has the highly best care and opportunity for development. All food is cooked onsite and the kids are offered such a wide variety. My son loves telling us what he has eaten when we pick him up. I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest. Thanks to all the team at the childcare centre! My son has attended Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands Day Childcare centre and Preschool since he was 9 months old – he is now 3 and has graduated up to the preschool room.
Phoenix Hunter
February 28, 2025 at 1:31 amThe childcare centre team have been so patient and nurturing and he’s now a confident almost 2-year-old. He loves the childcare centre team and sees them as his friends. Cannot suggest enough. My son was 11 months when he started here and was highly clingy to me, having not been left with relatives or friends previously.

March 2, 2025 at 1:48 amEveryone is so inviting and welcoming. My son started about two years ago and will be continuing until he starts school. He loves his days there and is so cheerful. Throughout the pandemic I’ve never had to worry about him at childcare centre and they’ve handled all the changes so well. The menu is terrific and he loves his food! He frequently comes home with art and crafts from activities that he’s done. He’s flourished under their care and is confident and welcoming with other people, even with the lockdowns, which truly shows how much they’ve nurtured him. I’ve recommended Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands Day Childcare centre and Preschool to other local mum’s. I couldn’t say enough great things about the team. From my highly first visit to look around, Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands Day Childcare centre and Preschool stood out straight away.

April 15, 2025 at 11:22 amWe have found the team at Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands Day Childcare centre and Preschool to be wonderfully compassionate and attentive towards our kids, both my kids have been highly cheerful. My kids were both tricky sleepers when they started but the team have fantastic ways with babies and highly soon they were sleeping and eating well. All food is cooked in house and there is a excellent choice, encouraging healthy eating. The team do lots of excellent, creative activities throughout the day and have a lovely amount of small outside space that the kids use highly often. As my daughter got older, we were truly impressed with how the team adapted to and managed her growing independence and assertiveness, potty training and helping her develop her first Math and phonics. We have consistently been assured that Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands Day Childcare centre and Preschool has outstanding processes in place to keep the kids secure and cheerful. Nothing has ever been too much trouble for the manager and another member of team. My daughter attended Bright Horizons Woodford Woodlands Day Childcare centre and Preschool from ten months to three years and eight months and my son at eleven months is now there.

May 4, 2025 at 7:01 amHe is excited to go to childcare centre and walks in without a backwards glance. I don’t worry about him at all while I work because I know he is cheerful and secure. The activities and education he receives are outstanding. He has learned his phonics sounds for all the letters of the alphabet for example. He is a cheerful and confident little boy and that is in no small part due to this childcare centre. My son has attended Woodford Woodlands since he was 11 months old and is now 4.5 years old and absolutely loves childcare centre.
Kai Frost
May 14, 2025 at 8:20 amDuring her time here she has developed as a cheerful, confident kid. This has been augmented in so many ways by the fantastic assistance from the team at Woodlands. I cannot suggest the nurses enough. Our two and a half-year-old daughter has been at Woodlands since she was a year old.
Harper Keane
May 23, 2025 at 10:53 amThankfully the childcare centre was open throughout the Lockdowns and believe it has helped in his self‑assurance and happiness.
The team are incredible, attentive and appear to adore the kids they look after. Our son has been going to this childcare centre for almost one year now and he totally loves it.
Toby Drake
June 3, 2025 at 1:08 pmShe is leaving childcare centre this week to go to “big school”. This journey of these three and half years has been incredible. I never had any problem sending her to the childcare centre, which proves how cheerful she is there. Every day she has lots of things to tell me about the childcare centre, her friends, toys etc. Every Friday an entertainer comes there and my daughter absolutely loves her. Childcare centre team are incredible and they look after the kids so well. End of day they give a detailed report of what my daughter has done throughout the day. The management team is also outstanding and are highly approachable. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre. My daughter has been attending the childcare centre since she was 11 months old.
