What families say about our setting.
"Our time at Woodpeckers has been amazing and we are so sad it has to come to an end. The support we have received with any issues has put our minds at rest. It has been great to see R thrive and come into his own- albeit on his own terms! I am forever recommending you and will continue to do so. We will miss you so much xxx"

"We have loved watching M grow in confidence since she started Woodpeckers, she has made lots of friends, as have we. M has been treated as an individual and always feels looked after and well supported. We have made great connections with all the amazing staff and loved watching M thrive and learn. Because of Woodpeckers M is well prepared for her next chapter at school- thank you"

"We are so pleased that we moved H to Woodpecker's for his final year at nursery, at the time we were not aware of just how much time he would get to be outside, in all weathers and it is something that we think is very unique to this nursery. Being outside is so important's for H's well being- thank you. We were also incredibly impressed with the care and love he received from all the team, they have been incredible and we couldn't of asked for better care"

Woodpecker's was exactly the nursery for us, it is so welcoming and continues to feel warm and like a second family nearly 6 years on! Our daughter attended and she flourished in the environment and now our son is here. We love the family feel of the nursery and the great relationships with the staff that our children have formed. Thank you Woodpecker's for all that you do!

Just wanted to highlight I love the ‘networking’ opportunities woodpeckers do for parents like mothers/Father’s Day, Christmas disco and the beach trip. I think it’s so important to give parents an opportunity to meet somewhere other than the rushed passing in the car park.
This then expands ‘the village’ of support for everyone and encourages the kids friendships outside of nursery.

We started A at Woodpeckers at the start of 2023 we have had nothing but a positive experience so far. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and caring. Our little girl seems to really enjoy her time there and it is a relief knowing she is happy and content each day. It’s also great seeing her do lots of different activities such as painting and going for walks. We highly recommend Woodpeckers and would personally love to thank all the staff there for making it such an easy transition for us as a family.

I can honestly say sending T to Woodpeckers has been one of the best decisions I have made. I was nervous at returning to work but Woodpeckers have made the whole process worry free – Theodore settled in so quickly and been a happy attendee ever since.
I find the staff to be kind caring and professional. I really feel they know T, and it is a family atmosphere where staff are very approachable. They do a wide range of activities and look like they have so much fun. I am very reassured that T is safe whilst at nursery. Safeguarding seems to be taken very seriously and I trust staff at Woodpeckers. The food seems great; it’s lovely having home-made food on site.

We were welcomed on our visit which confirmed our view (as career teachers) that Woodpeckers was the place for J.
We loved the family vibes, the zones both inside and outside for different age groups and activities and the possibility of exploring the music which is such a big part of both our families lives. We loved the fact that J will be going out with nursery staff on walks and visits.
You have more than exceeded our hopes and we are loving seeing him develop personally and through your tapestry messages and photos. Thank you so much for being a home to home and for Chloe being his second mummy.

My granddaughter L has just begun her journey from baby to growing up at Woodpeckers. She has today come home a smiling happy girl and it is clear that the attention and kindness she is receiving at Woodpeckers is Testament to her being placed there and the warmth she is clearly being shown by those who look after her. It is always a concern when little ones join a nursery but definitely the right choice in L's case!!!!

If I could leave much higher star rating to Woodpeckers, I would. Both my kids love it; one year old doesn't look back at me when I drop him off, off he goes to play right away and greats the staff with smile. He comes home very happy after being there. All staff are so nice, I will be sad when he goes to a big school. My now 7 year old, has met friends for life there; every time we go past, she remembers the days she used to go there and loves going in to get her brother now. Such a lovely place.

I cannot fault Woodpeckers; the staff are fantastic, caring and knowledgeable, and my son loves attending. The activities are superb and the child lead learning opportunities are just what I'd expect from such a well respected nursery.
