September 4, 2024 at 10:40 amHaving previously been at a much larger childcare centre with arguably more facilities, I would choose Westwards Childcare centre School over that one without a doubt. The care has been outstanding and the team turnover minimal – it is obvious to me that the team are highly cheerful there. Cheerful team equals cheerful kids. The team are highly inviting and welcoming and seem to genuinely care. My kids have consistently come home highly cheerful and fulfilled and I have never had any doubt that they are being looked after so well. I couldn’t suggest Westwards Childcare centre School more. I’ll be so sad when the youngest leaves. I have had 3 kids in this childcare centre and still currently have 2 at this childcare centre.

The food is excellent and highly well balanced, the team are compassionate and so affectionate. I couldn’t rate it highly enough. My son has been at Westwards Childcare centre School for almost 2 years.

December 23, 2024 at 7:19 pmI cannot begin to put into words how incredible we have found Westwards. The team are consistently so welcoming and they cannot do enough to help. My boys have and continue to adore going to childcare centre, they do incredible activities and playtime. I couldn’t suggest it enough. I will be highly sad when my second kid leaves but so pleased that Westwards has been a part of their lives. 10/10 Westwards. We started our journey with Westwards Childcare centre School back in 2017 with our first kid, he is now at school and our second kid is currently in Westwards Childcare centre School.

January 6, 2025 at 5:55 amThe team are remarkable, the kids are consistently busy doing lots of different activities and our kids are consistently highly cheerful when we pick them up. The food they provide is remarkable and they put a lot of effort into changing their menu weekly. We adore the enjoyable, welcoming and attentive atmosphere Westwards provides. We are delighted with the service Westwards childcare centre provides for our kids.

January 19, 2025 at 7:06 pmMy daughter is so settled and at home at Westwards! The team go above and beyond. The childcare centre communicate exceptionally well with family. A wide range of activities is available for kids and lots of engaging trips into the local community. Absolutely outstanding care provided.

January 20, 2025 at 3:55 pmWhat stands out are a few things;
1. The remarkable team! Team turnover is low, morale is high and they go above and beyond to provide a welcoming and nurturing setting for the kids. I also highly much appreciate the wide journey of the team; some have been there for over 10 years and some are newly trained. The diversity is remarkable and builds a real element of trust for both parents and kids.
2. The innovative, creative and lovely activities the kids do each and everyday. The team pick up on the interests of the kids and tailor the activities around this. During Wimbledon they took the kids to playtime tennis and eat strawberries, they go to museums, visit parks and create spa days when it’s hot. The variety and creativity is exceptional!
3. The incredible food! You cannot beat it! It’s so nice knowing your kids are consistently well nourished.
I couldn’t be happier with the outstanding care Westwards provide! I would highly suggest Westwards Childcare centre School.

January 20, 2025 at 7:59 pmThe team are engaging and supportive and we are incredibly grateful for the start you have given our daughter on her path into school life. Westwards Childcare centre School is a exceptional childcare centre, with a creative and supportive approach that fosters a strong discovering and enjoyable setting for kids.

January 21, 2025 at 11:19 pmThe childcare centre and their team put the kids at the centre of everything they do, which is one of the reasons why we picked them. Their kid-led approach means that the Early Years Foundation Stage framework they follow is taught alongside the interests of the kids. The childcare centre’s forest school is remarkable, our son consistently enjoys the sessions in the childcare centre’s dedicated woodland space and at the nature reserves they have visited. The childcare centre’s nativity playtime was even set in the forest school woodland – so despite Covid shutting down indoor venues, the ‘show went on’ and was a memorable journey. In short, it’s a difficult thing trusting others you don’t know to care for your young kids. But Westwards, with their attentive team and home-cooked food, melted away those fears pretty quickly. We would unreservedly suggest them – and we do – to anyone. We have two kids at the childcare centre with our eldest attending for over three years.

February 8, 2025 at 6:28 amWe moved our son here due to the flexible hours and availability for more days in pre-school. The team have been so welcoming and compassionate, they work hard to get to know each kid and cater for individuals’ needs. Updates is outstanding and updates are regular. Our son has enjoyed many trips, activities and role-playtime/messy playtime sessions. Our son will miss pre-school when he starts school but our baby will be joining and we can’t wait for his Westwards journey to start. We could not suggest Westwards Childcare centre School highly enough.

February 16, 2025 at 1:46 pmIt is a childcare centre that supports the whole family not just the kids.
I was terrified about sending my little girl to childcare centre. She started just before her birthday in the Sunshine room. I had nothing to worry about, the team are incredible! They have such genuine care for the kids. After a year in that room, my daughter was ready to move up to the Rainbow Room, both my daughter and I had built up a excellent relationship with the team and I was sad to move to the next room. I had no need to worry, the Rainbow room team were just as incredible. They too are so compassionate with never-ending patience and energy.
Every member of the childcare centre team knows each kid and each kid’s individual needs. It is a compassionate, cheerful and secure place where I know my daughter will be looked after. They assistance and nurture each kid in their unique development.
I drop my daughter off in the morning knowing she will have a great day. There are not enough words to describe how fantastic this childcare centre is.
Sidney Griffin
February 18, 2025 at 8:04 pmEvery member of team is so compassionate, gentle and understanding towards every kid’s needs. There’s such a lovely sense as soon as you enter Westwards and you know they’re in secure hands. They are so generous in all they do for the kids and go above and beyond to arrange special trips out of the childcare centre, summer parties, forest school and trips to the park, to name a few. The food they provide for the kids is also remarkable. Healthy, nourishing food and such care and attention invested in creating delicious, varied menus every week. Having visited and tried other nurseries, none compare to Westwards. Couldn’t suggest Westwards Childcare centre enough.

March 5, 2025 at 3:44 pmFrom the team to the food and activities including Forest School I couldn’t suggest it more highly. Westwards Childcare centre School is exactly what I wanted for my kids, a small, homely setting where I know they get not only the care and attention but the stimulation as well.

March 25, 2025 at 1:41 pmI’d go as far to say this is one of the best nurseries and I would wholeheartedly suggest Westwards to anyone. From the welcoming and welcoming team, outstanding indoor and outdoor facilities, education and discovering style to the on-site home-cooked meals – I can’t fault them. My daughter is so cheerful and has come on leaps and bounds in her development and has formed excellent relationships with all of the practitioners, as well as other kids. Updates with the childcare centre is remarkable – I consistently get a detailed overview of her day upon pick up and the childcare centre team are all highly approachable and welcome new ideas/suggestions from parents. Westwards truly is a home from home with incredible team and a fantastic atmosphere. I searched far and wide when looking for a childcare centre for my daughter and, having been part of the Westwards family for over 2 years now, I have never looked back.

April 4, 2025 at 8:38 amOur eldest son attended from 1-year-old through to going to school and Westwards supported him, and us, every step of the way. Their preparation for Reception is second-to-none; they supported us with toilet habits and dressing and undressing for PE, among many other things, which stood him in highly great stead. Our youngest son is still there and the team know him truly well. He has firm friendships that are encouraged and they have developed his interests carefully – they hold him, and all the kids, in highly high regard. We’ve lived in Loughborough for nearly 10 years and we meet people frequently whose grown-up kids attended Westwards. We’ve never heard a bad word about the place! Westwards is an outstanding childcare centre.
Lennon Steele
April 12, 2025 at 7:24 pmMy son loves all the team, especially his key person, who is super nice and patient with his demands. The childcare centre arranges a lot of outdoor activities as long as the weather is not bad. The kids have chances to go shopping in the market, playtime in different playgrounds, to visit museums and even farms. I could not suggest Westwards Childcare centre School more. My friend recommended Westwards to me and I was glad that I made a completely right choice.
London Hayes
April 23, 2025 at 5:00 amMy son loves it and is consistently highly excited to go and he regularly talks about the childcare centre and the team when at home. The team are consistently polite, attentive and highly supportive and have a highly close bond with the kids which is lovely to see. Would highly suggest sending your kid here. Fab childcare centre with incredible team.
Carter Reid
May 12, 2025 at 10:49 pmEvery day asking “Are we going to childcare centre today?” Westwards has a home-from-home sense, all the team have been so incredible, encouraging and consistently providing a cheerful, welcoming setting and have been a big part of their life, going 4 days a week for the past 2 years. Lots of activities and playtime every day and I adore the fact that they take the kids out so much, be it in the garden area, for little walks into town or to the park. Preschool kids get to attend Forest School which my little one is particularly excited about starting when they go up to preschool soon! Absolutely suggest Westwards Childcare centre, such a excellent place to watch your kid bloom. My little one has been attending this childcare centre since they were 1 (now 3 years old) and they absolutely adore going!
Carter Sutton
May 24, 2025 at 3:37 amThe team are truly welcoming and welcoming. My daughter attended the preschool from August 2020 to August 2021 and loved it. She especially loved the forest school. The year in preschool truly helped develop her self‑assurance and social skills before school. My son started Westwards Childcare centre School in June 2022 and he has settled in truly well and thoroughly enjoys it.
Robin Hunter
June 23, 2025 at 5:40 amHis younger sister is now in the baby room. I chose Westwards within a few minutes of walking into the building. The gentle care that the team clearly showed towards the kids was immediately evident and the setting was calm and nurturing. From sensory playtime, music, local trips, activities focused on the kids’s interests, forest school and outdoor provision, and recently school transition, Westwards has given my kids the best start. They both adore attending and my older kid speaks enthusiastically about the things he has been doing at childcare centre. All the team know and genuinely care for the kids and have come to sense like an extension of our family. My older kid has attended Westwards Childcare centre School since he was a baby and is about to leave to go to school.

June 25, 2025 at 9:20 amThe team are welcoming, consistently approachable and give informative handovers at the end of the day. The kids gets lots of outdoor time and experiences at forest school when older. My kid comes home and zonks everyday after collection for an hour. The food there is of truly great standards consistently something different on offer, seconds and sometimes thirds go down well. Westwards Childcare centre School is a fabulous childcare centre, we looked around a few and they ticked all of the boxes.
