The Willow Tree Nursery School

The Willow Tree is a really special place. The staff are excellent - professional, caring, warm and organised. The setting is every child’s dream - with excellent toys and resources. The activities on offer are exceptional - lots of learning through play, music, arts and reading. I can’t thank the Willow Tree enough for the care and attention they gave my daughter who attended from September 2018 for a year. I’ve never known another nursery like it… simply brilliant.

Two of my children have attended The Willow Tree Nursery school, and despite being very different children, have both been nurtured and supported so wonderfully by the lovely teachers here. It has a homely feel and so much care and attention goes into the children, I have always felt so comfortable leaving my boys with Laura and all of the staff. We have recently had our third child and I wish we still lived close enough to send her here, as I wouldn’t hesitate or consider another setting

Such a great Nursery! All the staff are absolutely lovely and go above and beyond for both children and parents to make sure everyone is happy and looked after. The whole place has a very friendly feel and really is a home from home for the children.My Son came on leaps and bounds with the help of his teachers there and he absolutely loved attending. The teachers always make sure you know how the children are getting on and I loved seeing pictures/notes on Tapestry(We miss that!)We sadly had to leave early 2021 As we moved out of the area but we would recommend the Willow Tree to absolutely everyone.

Both our girls attended The Willow Tree Nursery; one from 2013-2015 and then the other from 2017-2019. Our experience of the nursery was excellent and our girls had the most wonderful and nurturing time there. The staff are very professional, creative, caring and totally supportive of both child and parents. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a local nursery. Thank you Willow Tree for everything you did for our girls x

An excellent nursery where staff go above and beyond to make sure the children are happy.
Every single teacher is brilliant and knows all the children by name.
Nothing is too much trouble.Miss Laura is always there to answer any questions or to calm worried parents.
Miss Stacey and the rest of the team are really engaged with the kids and it feels like they really care,which is reassuring.
The days are well organised with lots of learning activities and outside play (having the Wendell Park on their doorstep is a bonus).
My older son started the Willow Tree as a quiet and shy boy, but left in 2018 as a confident child, ready for big school. All thanks to a loving and kind approach from the teachers in the nursery.
When my younger son started it felt like coming back to our family. He loved going there every morning. He started his primary school in 2021 and still talks about The Willow Tree!
I can't recommend this nursery highly enough!

My son and daughter attended Willow Tree nursery between 2013 and 2017, and we all still miss it! It is such a lovely, nurturing environment and the staff are absolutely dedicated to giving all the children the best start in life and building a happy community around the nursery. Can not recommend it highly enough it.

Both my boys attended this nursery from 2015 to 2019 and loved it. I cannot rate it highly enough. If you are looking for a nursery that is both kind and loving, but also one that, ever so gently and without you realising it, prepares your child for school, then this is definitely the place to go. Laura and her team are superb and genuinely care. It tells you everything you need to know that the staff today are still the same staff that were there 7-8 years ago.

Our daughter was at Willow Tree for 2 years and a term and there wasn't one day in all that time where she didn't skip in smiling. The staff were so nurturing, kind and loving and the atmosphere was always calm but fun and stimulating. She was really well prepared for the transition to school and although she loves school she still talks about Willow Tree and wanting to go back to the garden and to see the teachers. A very special place.
