    My daughter started with New Woods Childcare when she was six months old to allow me to go back to work on a part-time basis. Since attending the nursery she has grown into a wonderful little girl who is confident and bubbly. As a parent having to give my daughter to someone to look after at such a young age was very hard, however, the staff at New Woods Childcare were so wonderful at not only understanding the needs of my daughter but also taking in to account my feelings of leaving my baby.

    Since my daughter has attended the nursery her communication has come on leaps and bounds and she even teaches me new nursery rhymes and the actions to go with them which is wonderful to see. Most days we receive a painting or picture which we treasure and at certain times of the year, the nursery celebrates and involves the children in activities such as Christmas Craft which I look forward to each year. Overall the staff are wonderful and an asset to the childcare industry.

    My child started at New Woods just before her first birthday and has been there for two years now. The initial visits arrangement is perfect yot ensure children and parents feel comfortable to be left alone. The staff are friendly and approachable. I have been able to ask for extra hours when necessary in advance and have been accommodated when possible. My child is happy to go to the nursery and I have seen her confidence and ability grow thanks to the wonderful nurturing staff and environment. I would highly recommend New Woods to other parents.

    My children have been coming to this setting since 2010. I’ve never had a concern in leaving them as the staff here are fab, they are extremely approachable and understanding. Every morning they greet us with a friendly smile and news of exciting activities planned for the day ahead. The setting has a very clear structure and routine to follow, which really helps the children settle straight in. My eldest two children really thrived with both communication and understanding and I can say with confidence that my youngest will be given every opportunity to do the same during his time at New Woods too.
    My children have so many wonderful memories of their time at New Woods such as sponsored events, fancy dress and craft afternoons.

    My daughter loves going to nursery. She loves the activities, the toys and playing with the other children. The staff are kind and helpful. I was able to choose hours that meet my childcare needs. I would highly recommend New Woods Childcare.

    ‘Thank you’ seems insignificant but a massive thank you to all of you that worked with my children. My son cried many days when he realised I was leaving him but I had no worries as the ladies always comforted me/explained he had stopped within minutes of me leaving. To have that empathy/understanding and being spoken to like a regular person was a huge thing. I will never forget the part you played in both my children’s progress/development. There comes a point that its stops being just childcare; you became a big part of my life/my children’s lives and I am so thankful for how you have helped shape their manners/skills/qualities; it makes me feel very proud of the people they are becoming. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend New Woods; they provide wonderful care and the ladies are truly exceptional.

    What a wonderful nursery with caring, nurturing and welcoming staff.
    They offer the utmost care and dedication to their profession.
    They have made us feel welcome and supported, and know my child well, and his needs are catered for.
    His confidence and development have been supported.

    I’ve used this nursery for both my children and have recommended to all my friends. Staff are caring, the building is clean and the activities are lovely. Both my children settled well when they started as good transition procedures are in place. Communication is excellent and they make good use of the App, sending messages and photos throughout the day. The nursery offers very good value for money with flexible hours and also tern time only – which is great for me as I work as a teacher. Both my children are thriving due to the great early care the received here.

    Never had any problem with the staff at new woods. Always been helpful when I’ve had a concern. My daughter attended from her 2-year funding up until going onto reception and has recently returned for after school club. Staff have always communicated with me about her stay. Couldn’t get better staff.

    Three out of our four boys have attend here and the staff are absolutely fantastic! We still have two currently attending here and they always come back so happy, the staff have been so accommodating to their needs and the eldest one who no longer goes here keeps asking if he can go back. The facilities are to a high standard and with plenty of space for children to play along with doing a mixture of actives. I will always recommend this nursery.

    I have a two-year-old boy on the autism spectrum, the staff are brilliant with him. Also, his twin sister goes to the same nursery. It took them time to settle in but now with the nursery staff’s patience, they both will walk in happy. Even my son goes straight to them when he sees the staff

    All the staff are doing a great job taking care of my child. They are keeping me up to date on what he is doing or if something is wrong. I’ve known them for six years now, they took care of my daughter as well. they did a great job and they are still doing it. Hope they will remain the same and do their job in the future as well so they will teach the children what will come in the future. Thank you to the best team of teaching.

    Excellent service, sometimes stood waiting quite a long time for collection to go in.
    One thing I do not agree with, if our children do not attend on bank holidays, we haven’t previously paid. Due to the Queen’s funeral, we are expected to! This means for some parents/carers they will actually have to pay twice for childcare! This is wrong especially given the current economic crisis!

    My daughter has been here since November 2022 and she absolutely loves it!
    All staff are lovely and so so helpful and I’m happy with everything they do for my daughter. Always different activities on and always talk with parents after the session to let them know what’s been happening that day.
