    He has attended since he was 1 and now is about to start school. From the beginning, they have consistently been so welcoming, welcoming and provided such a secure and comfortable setting for my son, and made me as a parent, sense at ease. Towards the end of his time at the childcare centre before starting school, the preschool room has helped with the transition truly well. They have provided books for him to read at home, they learn about a wide variety of topics such as different countries, the Olympics and even discovering sign language, which my son has loved. They get an introduction to numbers and phonics, which has truly helped as preparation for school. My younger son, who is 18-months, also attends the childcare centre, and I couldn’t suggest it enough to others. Scotts Wood has been a remarkable childcare centre for my 4-year-old.

    They have been so welcoming and helped to settle our kids in truly quickly. The kids have excellent structure to their day, and with the assistance of the incredible team, are discovering new things in a gently, paced, enjoyable way. We truly rate Scotts Wood.

    Right from the first visit, we got such a excellent sense for the childcare centre; the atmosphere is inviting and attentive, and the team are dedicated to knowing each kid truly well to make them sense at home and to effectively assistance their discovering and development. The pre-school room did a remarkable job of getting our son ready for the transition to school, helping him understand what to expect on a practical level as well as making sure he was used to the style of discovering. He leaves excited to take the next step but is going to miss the lovely people he has spent the last three and a half years with, as will we! We would highly suggest the childcare centre to anyone looking for childcare in the area. Our son attended Scotts Wood full time from 10-months-old and absolutely loved it.

    So far, we (and our currently 1-year-old daughter) have enjoyed being a part of the family and hope to continue progressing through the classes! Scotts Wood, from the outset, truly impressed us with their discovering setting, incredible team and attentiveness.

    The information sent ahead of her joining was highly comprehensive, and the team were all highly responsive and supportive. After a highly short time, our daughter was settled, cheerful and excited to go to childcare centre each day – the team are all fantastic, and I adore that when she arrives each morning, they all excitedly welcome her, and she is cheerful to say goodbye and spend the day with lots of friends. Her development has come on highly well since joining, and her day seems full of different activities and lots of outdoor time, which is what we had been looking for in a childcare centre. I would 100% suggest Scotts Wood and am so highly cheerful with our choice to send her there – she even shouts “home” when she arrives, which is fantastic to see. We enrolled our daughter into Scotts Wood in January, having moved to the area.

    The team are honestly incredible, and the care and attention they give the kids is fantastic. The spaces are excellent, with the outside bit being our little one’s favourite, and even the menu sounds super tasty! Our daughter has absolutely thrived since being here, and it’s so nice knowing she is going to be well looked after and have a excellent day when we drop her off. We have never had any issues and have nothing but praise for everyone. We adore sending our daughter to Scott’s Wood, and she definitely loves it there too. We can’t suggest Scott’s Wood enough. Our daughter has been at Scott’s Wood for five months so far, and from when we first looked around to now, everyone has been super welcoming, attentive and supportive.

    Both our sons attend (eldest since 2017 and youngest since 2020). Both absolutely adore attending childcare centre and have developed deep bonds with the team that work there.

    When we were looking for nurseries, Scotts Wood stood out as the team were so inviting and welcoming, yet it was clear to see that their professionalism and expertise would also provide a excellent early start to young kids’s development. Our main priority was that our kids would sense cheerful and secure when placed into childcare, and there is a genuine affection and care for the kids from the team, which we truly appreciate; it is like a home away from home for them.

    They also provide lovely meals and have a wide range of activities, which they document on an online platform highly regularly. We get extensive reports on their development and updates is excellent, which we have been highly grateful for during the pandemic.

    We sense highly fortunate to have found such a excellent childcare centre! We cannot fault Scotts Wood Day Childcare centre.

    They have been remarkable. The kids have been so cheerful there and so well looked after – would definitely suggest it to other parents. There are some truly excellent team who have gone above and beyond to get to know and understand our kids and make childcare centre the happiest place for them and we are so grateful for such a positive start to their education. The childcare centre is well organised and welcoming with excellent facilities which are consistently being added to and refreshed. The kids’s discovering is considered in every activity and updates through the EyLog app kept us in the loop, and as parents, we consistently felt able to share our concerns and felt listened to. We couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks, Scotts Wood! We’ve been part of Scotts Wood Day Childcare centre for 7 years as both of our kids have gone through the childcare centre from baby room to preschool – the youngest has just left.

    We have a 16-month-old who has attended since August. He settled immediately into the baby room and has since moved to the toddler room. Every member of team has been outstanding; excellent updates, attentive, attentive, planning ahead, and supportive. His development since joining has been noticeable.
    The only highly minor improvement I can think of is that the gate and walkway to the building could do with upgrading. We are exceptionally pleased with Scott’s Wood and would not hesitate to suggest this childcare centre to other parents.

    My kid has been attending the childcare centre for half a year, and they have absolutely loved it. The team are incredibly attentive and nurturing, and they have created a inviting and welcoming setting where kids can sense secure and secure. My kid has made so many new friends at childcare centre, and they have learned so much. The team have tailored their teaching to their individual needs, and they have helped them to develop their social, emotional, and academic skills. I am so grateful for the care and attention that the team at Scotts Wood Day Childcare centre have given my kid. The team are incredibly dedicated and passionate about their work. They have made a real difference in their life. Highly suggest!

    As he was born during the pandemic, we were apprehensive about putting him into a childcare setting. However, everyone at Scotts Wood made it so easy for us. Every single member of team is welcoming, attentive and personable. We consistently felt our son was absolutely secure and well looked after during his time there.
    After about 6 months, our son developed separation anxiety affected childcare centre drop-off; highly stressful for all of us, but the manager and our son’s key workers worked closely with us to work through these difficulties, and they truly cared about our son having a settled and enjoyable time at childcare centre. This meant an awful lot to us.
    We are a same-sex family, and our diversity was respected, appreciated and welcomed, which was fantastic.
    The childcare centre itself is well equipped, spotless and has a lovely set-up. We are so sad to leave and can’t suggest highly enough. Our son started at Scotts Wood when he was 1 year old.

    We can not fault Scotts Wood and would highly suggest this childcare centre.

    We can’t thank all team enough for everything they have done. Our kid attended Scotts Wood Day Childcare centre and absolutely loved it.

    From the highly first settling in sessions in the couple of weeks before he started, we were made to sense truly welcome and just knew our precious little boy would be in excellent hands. Our son’s key person took plenty of time to get to know him, his preferences and routines, etc. and answer any questions we had. We could see straight away that everyone at Scotts Wood Day Childcare centre is truly invested in creating a cheerful, comfortable, secure and inquisitive setting in which kids can discover themselves and the world around them, and we have been astounded by how much our little one has flourished in such a short time. We get regular updates on our son’s development and are invited to input into his development plans. We sense blessed to have found such a fantastic childcare centre setting to take care of our little boy – he clearly loves being at childcare centre and all of the team clearly adore having him, thank you Scotts Wood! Our son joined the baby room at Scotts Wood Day Childcare centre in March 2022, when he was 6 months old.

    Would suggest it to anyone. Our twins have been through all age groups within the childcare centre, apart from the baby room, and will miss it when they head off to school in September. Excellent team, expert set-up, a best in class response to the Covid pandemic and a welcoming welcoming sense.

    The team are welcoming and capable, and the boys are highly fond of them. They consistently eat well and come back full of stories and tired from all the activity. The updates we get on the app are supportive and interesting as well. Our two boys adore going to Scotts Wood.

    They’ve helped her settle in quickly, have listened to her needs, have adjusted her care when requested and done it all smoothly with lots of assistance. My daughter is highly cheerful here and has already come on with her development, and the team is absolutely incredible. I am highly impressed with the care here and would highly suggest this childcare centre. Scotts Wood have been truly attentive to my daughter’s needs.

    From when she first started at 8 months old, the team and setting made us sense comfortable and relaxed, and our daughter settled in straight away. We are consistently impressed with the activities they do and how engaged the team are with the kids. They are all truly expert but also highly attentive and truly just sense like extended family and have a real investment in how well the kids are doing. It is an outstanding day childcare centre, and we would suggest it. Our daughter has been attending Scotts Wood Day Childcare centre for over a year now.

    The team in the baby room are fantastic; they clearly adore what they do, and they go above and beyond. The childcare centre is well run with excellent updates and safeguarding too. Our daughter started at Scott’s Wood in January, and she has settled in so well, and that’s all down to the childcare centre.

    All 3 kids have loved their experiences at this childcare centre, and I couldn’t suggest it more highly.
    The team are inviting, attentive, patient, compassionate and have a genuine adore for the kids.
    When I drop my kids off there in the morning, I am sure that everyone at the childcare centre does all they can to ensure that they have the best possible day that they can.
    My youngest consistently leaves childcare centre with a smile on his face. I have had 3 kids attend this childcare centre, my youngest currently attending preschool there.

    When we arrive in the morning, as we are walking up to the door, he starts smiling and getting excited once he recognises where he is, and he happily goes to the team once we are in, often giving them a cuddle, which is lovely to see and know how content he is.
    All of the team are inviting and attentive and truly take the time to get to know the kids and understand what is best for them on an individual basis. Updates is excellent; we are kept up to date with every aspect of his day, including his food, sleep times and activities.
    It truly is a home from home, and we would definitely suggest Scotts Wood. We are so cheerful with how well our little boy has settled in at Scotts Wood; in just a few months he’s been in the baby room, he’s truly flourished.
