Absolutely excellent taking care of both my children! They prioritise forming friendships with the children where they feel seen and heard. I feel confident I’m bringing my children into a safe environment where they can thrive and just be themselves!

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 10 months old, she is now in pre school. The staff go over and beyond for the children and I feel like I’m leaving my daughter with family rather than staff. My daughter has quite a few medical problems and they have always been so supportive of t…

They also fully listen to my…

I have children at Woodlands Nursery, they both absolutely love nursery days. The staff are all upbeat and fun as well as nurturing. My boys refer to them all as their friends. Communication is brilliant as well. It’s always a relief when you can leave them knowing they are going to have a great time…

Lovely nursery with great staff. My daughter really enjoys going to Safehands and has a good relationship with all the people there. She has been going since a very early age and we have seen her progress a lot.

Magda and Gemma were her favourites (baby room), she feels comfortable and safe going to them, which gives us real peace of mind when we’re at work. It’s reassuring know…

Our son started nursery in the baby room in September 2025. He has settled in well over the past couple of months and goes in each day happily. We love to see the regular pictures and updates of what he has been getting up to each day on the parent app. He particularly enjoys being in the soft play r…
