I’ve been to many nursery’s to look around and this nursery really was a breath of fresh air! the day was very well organised compared to other establishments I’ve been to. The layout is amazing and there is so much for the children to enjoy whilst learning. I left their feeling happy and reassured that my son will be well looked after. Zoey was amazing at showing us around and explaining what the children will be doing whilst in their care and had a very friendly nature and was really helpful and knowledgeable when we asked questions. I also really liked that they asked us if we minded being shown round with two other family’s and had the option to say yes or no (we did not mind) Lucy took her time to talk to me privately regarding my son’s needs and I felt really reassured with her knowledge and positive attitude. I have not had this in any of the nursery’s I’ve previously viewed (I have viewed many). The nursery was really bright and clean and offers the children so much more than most nursery’s I’ve been too. I feel confident in leaving my son in there care. My child looked visibly comfortable during the viewing which really put me at ease. All staff were smiley and friendly and I really liked that to thank both Lucy and Zoey. I am now not nervous about sending my son to nursery and I’m looking forward to the next chapter in his little life.",

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

Outdoor space

Staff provide children with frequent opportunities to experience the outdoors and fresh air. Regular outings to the farm help children to learn about their world, observe different animals, and develop control and coordination by balancing on planks and jumping in puddles. Babies use well-placed furniture to balance and develop early walking.

I took my son today to look around the nursery and was warmly welcomed by Lucy, she was very friendly and the nursery had a lovely vibe to it. I’ve been to many nursery’s to look around and this nursery really was a breath of fresh air! the day was very well organised compared to other establishments I’ve been to. The layout is amazing and there is so much for the children to enjoy whilst learning. I left their feeling happy and reassured that my son will be well looked after. Zoey was amazing at showing us around and explaining what the children will be doing whilst in their care and had a very friendly nature and was really helpful and knowledgeable when we asked questions. I also really liked that they asked us if we minded being shown round with two other family’s and had the option to say yes or no (we did not mind) Lucy took her time to talk to me privately regarding my son’s needs and I felt really reassured with her knowledge and positive attitude. I have not had this in any of the nursery’s I’ve previously viewed (I have viewed many). The nursery was really bright and clean and offers the children so much more than most nursery’s I’ve been too. I feel confident in leaving my son in there care. My child looked visibly comfortable during the viewing which really put me at ease. All staff were smiley and friendly and I really liked that to thank both Lucy and Zoey. I am now not nervous about sending my son to nursery and I’m looking forward to the next chapter in his little life.

A truly brilliant establishment. The educators have gone above and beyond to care for our son. They have always tailored his care based on his needs and helped him make great progress. We are so grateful our son was able to attend such a wonderful nursery.

My twins have recently started at Willows and I am very happy and impressed with everything so far. The communication from Reina, in Admin has been excellent. All the staff in the Pre toddlers room are very welcoming, friendly and supportive. There is a lovely positive, atmosphere at the nursery. You can see how amazing the staff are with the children and they have been great at helping my babies to settle in. I am very excited to see them develop and flourish at Willows.

Our eldest has just left Willows to start school - he was in the Pre-School barn. We transferred him from another nursery as we were concerned he was not getting the mental stimulation and learning assistance we wanted. We have nothing but praise for the staff in the Barn. Drop off can be difficult with a youngster but at pickup he was always excited and happy. One of the real benefits is the Farm which they visit regularly and is the highlight of the day! We also saw an improvement in learning following the move.
