Both my girls have attended Woodlands Park and have loved every minute. The staff are great at making everyone feel welcome and valued. The new food menu is really great too, with a wide variety of different and interesting dishes offered to the children. Highly recommended!

My daughter Trixie was such a nervous little 11m old when she first joined here. But she’s 14 months now and absolutely thriving. She has settled into nursery beautifully and I cannot thank the staff enough. Thank you so much.

My son has been at Woodlands Park since he was one and he is now 2.5. He loves it here, really enjoys seeing the other children and the staff in the Toddler rooms are so engaging and interactive with the toddlers. I cannot wait for him to go to the Forest School when he turns 3 and increase his hours at this nursery, they do a fabulous menu which has lots of healthy, varied options and my son always eats well which is great. I would highly recommend this nursery to other parents if they want their little ones exposed to creativity, lots of outdoor play and interaction with other playful toddlers!

My 1 year old loves attending nursery here and always has the happiest little face when we pick him up. The staff have always been fantastic, even through all the challenges of the last year and I can't praise them highly enough. They are all inclusive too which I haven't seen many other nurseries offer and was one of the big selling points for me.I don't have to worry about nappies suncream etc, it's all taken care of. The forest school is an added bonus and the grounds are by far the most beautiful I have seen at any nursery. My son has developed a real love of the outdoors during his time here
