I couldn’t of found a better nursery for our daughter. The staff are amazing, friendly, caring and approachable. She looks forward to the days she’s in nursery, she used to be shy going in and now she never wants to leave when we pick her up because she is too busy having fun. The staff communicate with us well and keep us up to date with everything and it’s always nice getting photos of what our daughter has been up to.

Our experience of Wonderland Day Nursery was nothing short of exceptional. All staff were caring and considerate towards our child. Our child loved going to nursery and built a great relationship with all the staff and children. All staff were very easy to communicate with if we had any questions or concerns. Would not hesitate to recommend this nursery!

I viewed 5 nurseries in the area before I viewed Wonderland, and I registered my daughter there and then! Everything about the place, the staff and atmosphere just felt right. I didn't send my first two children to private nurseries so I was very hesitant at first but I absolutely LOVE Wonderland! The staff are friendly and put your child first. Can't wait to watch my daughter develop there even more than she has already thanks to the help of the staff.

Fantastic nursery. Friendly, polite and enthusiastic staff. My niece loved it here and the staff were so good with her when she struggled to settle. The staff within the nursery helped my niece progress massively with her development and brought her out of her shell. Her confidence was fantastic when she left and that was all thanks to the amazing staff team.

A home from home. My daughter was previously at another nursery and wouldn’t settle in or even speak to the staff. As soon as she started at Wonderland she was chatting away and playing happily, she absolutely loves it and the staff are amazing. Really friendly and helpful team and all the children are very happy here.
