The staff are amazing and have great attention to detail, it's very safe, Clean, warm and friendly. All the staff work well as a team, I had good feed back when collecting the children after their time there.

My eldest son started at this nursery in 2012, I found the staff were lovely and friendly. They took pride in their work and made each child feel very welcome. I was always very happy and had a lovely relationship with staff members, in year 2015 my youngest son started at the nursery, it was lovely to see staff who were still there and meet new members, the nursery had evolved with more modern touches and my youngest loved it there too. The staff are amazing and have great attention to detail, it's very safe, Clean, warm and friendly. All the staff work well as a team, I had good feed back when collecting the children after their time there. I would highly recommend Wind in the willows, my two miss it and still talk of happy memories made there. Thank you to the team there.

My 2 eldest children went to this nursery and they absolutely loved it! The staff are amazing, so kind and friendly. They always had fun activities to help them learn and be creative. I would highly recommend the nursery to everyone and always tell my friends about it when they are looking to put their children into day care.

My daughter went to wind in the willows from 9 months till 4 years, she loved the nursery and all the staff. As a parent it so hard to leave your child but all the staff made this very easy and the updates you receive on the app is a special touch. Would recommend Wind in the Willows to all my friends and family.

Last year in September, I came to WITW as a student for my course and it was the first setting I ever went and it was the best experience i could of ever asked for. The staff was so loving and caring that they made me feel as if I was part of their team. They made sure all the children where happy and comfortable and every morning I went into the setting I had hugs from the children. It’s such an amazing setting and would highly recommend it to any parent who is looking for a nursery, I can’t wait to go back todo my placement again here. Thank you so much the WITW staff for making me feel some welcomed and I will see you soon.
