“My little boy has attended what a hoot since he was 9 month old, he’s now 3 and has just started pre-school. In my opinion it is the most fantastic nursery!"

D. Elsey

"My son has attended since he was two and the progress he made within the first few months was amazing all due to their dedication and hard work with him."

B. Hetherington

"Awesome nursery, brilliant staff. Great environment for my little dude (he loves it!) I would definitely recommend What a Hoot xxx"

C. Nolan

"I cannot rate this nursery highly enough!
Our little boy settled so quick ! There is such a warm feel to What A Hoot from the moment you enter. All the staff are qualified and it shows. Our 2 year old has come on so much since he started here and loves coming. We are so happy that we took the decision to bring him here."
