About the employer

Woodlands was established over 18 years ago and our ethos has remained the same now as it was back then. We have always strived to provide the best childcare setting possible not only for the children we care for but to raise the standard of childcare in general. We started out with that aim and over the years have gone above and beyond what we expected and hoped for. We invest in our staff to ensure they are highly qualified and experienced and truly enjoy what they do. We teach our children to care about each other, celebrate diversity and become part of their local community to ensure they grow into happy and responsible young people. Woodlands has grown rapidly since we opened and although we care for a lot more children than we did 18 years ago we still provide the highest level of care and attention to each and every child, ensuring they have more than enough space to be happy, confident, healthy and reach their full potential.
