"We couldn't have asked for a nicer group of people to introduce our boys to education. We will be forever grateful for your kindness, understanding and respect shown to the boys."
"Thank you for being such wonderful teachers. You have all been so caring and supportive over the years. I truly mean it when I say we will miss you all so much."
"Great Wakering Pre-Schools are amazing, as are the people who work there. My daughter was so incredibly close to Clare Hall. She formed such a bond with her because of how much she cared and looked after her and now my son is forming the same bond which is beautiful to see. These types of relationships can’t be taught. It takes special people to form them and that’s what the people who work there are. Both my children have loved attending pre-school and never had bad days there. They are always so well looked after and have so much fun while learning. I've always struggled letting people take care of my children. The trust I have in the staff makes it so much easier, knowing that they will spend the day happy and content".
"My children have loved every minute of their pre-school experience and grown so much thanks to the absolutely wonderful staff. I've always had Clare as their key worker, however we think of her as so much more than that. She holds a special place in each of our children’s hearts for her beautiful way with the children. They have flourished under her guidance and loving nature. I would recommend the pre-school and staff to anyone that wants their children to feel safe and happy and is looking for them to progress in a nurturing environment".
"Little Wakering Pre-school is a nurturing, safe and educational space. We have always been fully supported as parents and our children's needs have always been catered for. I have never worried about my children while under their care".
"Both of my children attended Great Wakering Pre-School. The staff have been consistently friendly and welcoming from initial onboarding, which was thorough and detailed in gathering information required to welcome my child to the setting and access their initial needs. I felt the setting had an in depth understanding of my child’s starting point prior to attending and it was clear on how learning would be delivered".
"Our daughter attends Little Wakering Pre-School. From the moment she started we have felt nothing but support and care from all of the staff. She has settled quickly and really enjoys her sessions 3 times a week. There's clear communication about what she has been learning and playing each time she attends. It is an extremely friendly and fun environment with different activities set out ready for them to enjoy when they arrive. We would highly recommend this pre-school to other parents".
"I just wanted to share how happy we are with Little Wakering Pre-School and all the lovely staff there. They really do go above and beyond. My little boy has SEN and we were quite worried how he would settle and cope with unfamiliar people. Since starting, he has done amazing! He has come on leaps and bounds. His confidence has really grown with both adults and children. It's lovely that the staff take time to read through the all about me section of tapestry so that they really do know about your child's likes and dislikes before they start. He absolutely adores Carolyn and all the lovely staff there. He is always so happy going into pre-school and always leaves with a big smile on his face, excited for when he can come back again. It's lovely being able to see the updates on tapestry showing what he's been up to each week and seeing how happy he really is at pre-school".
"Since our daughter started, she has become so much more confident and made such a lovely group of friends. I was always nervous about her starting, but after viewing a good few nursery’s, I knew Little Wakering was the place for her. She loves it, and has the most amazing teachers. They always communicate with you at the end of the day and are always there to help with any questions".
"My daughter has attended Little Wakering Pre-School since February 2024. Prior to this my son attended. As a family we've had the most amazing experience, finding them to be a warm, nurturing pre-school. They were incredibly proactive and supportive when my son attended, helping us to not only get him his autism diagnosis, but also to start (and be successful with) his EHCP. My son also attended speech and language therapy whilst at the pre-school. Staff always ensured they were well informed with his targets, implementing the strategies within the pre-school environment and helping my son to achieve his goals. The pre-school have gone above and beyond to support our family personally over the years. Above all, I would recommend this pre-school to anyone. My children have loved attending and have grown, learned and achieved so much during their time there. There will only be once choice of pre-school for our youngest when he is old enough to attend".
