" It was nearly seven years before we started that we first discussed the possibility of setting up a nursery. So it was with great satisfaction and excitement that finally in June 2004 we opened the doors to our first children. 
It seems a long time ago now, but we can still remember the road to The Wishing Tree being a very long journey, punctuated by many challenges, not the least of which was finding the right premises and staff.
In our wonderful management team of Bridget, Vicky, Anna and Wendy, who are still with us today, we found childcare professionals who share our passion for high quality and attention to detail. This belief has led to the nursery being awarded Ofsted "Outstanding" in 2005 and 2009. Our aim is quite simply to provide the best outcomes for children and families that we can.
The Wishing Tree is the culmination of many “if only” and “one day we’ll do this” conversations with family and friends. It's also the culmination of much thought about the detail that goes into delivering a successful nursery for children, staff, parents and carers. We're open Monday to Friday 7.45 a.m. to 6.15 p.m. all year, so if you would like to find out more, then please have a look around our web site, and if you like what you see, either email us on the link above or call 01273 551515."

" Absolutely lovely. The outside area is the best I've seen. Congratulations on a job well done". " My daughter is very shy and I was worried about her going to nursery for the first time. I needn't have worried, the staff at The Wishing Tree couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly." " We have moved to London and cannot find anywhere as good as The Wishing Tree. Please open a location here as soon as possible" " A fantastic setting, you won't have any trouble at all attracting parents". " Thank you for all the kindness, care and attention you have shown to both of my children. They have gone to school full of confidence and enthusiasm " |
