Day Nurseries Owned by Radley Schools Group

Barfield School is truly exceptional. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth, care, and high expectations that run through everything they do.

The staff are outstanding - welcoming, attentive, and deeply committed to helping every child succeed. Communication with families is clear and consistent, and it's obvious the team works together with real passion and professionalism. You can see how much they invest in learning-lessons feel purposeful and engaging, and there's a strong focus on building confidence, curiosity, and independence.

My daughter is thriving there.

The grounds are also spectacular!

Our son joined Barfield in September and we couldn't be happier, when we went to view the nursery we instantly knew that it was the right place for our son. All of the nursery team are so caring, kind and patient and the manager is just amazing, she is so passionate in creating the best environment for the children and you are met with such a sense of genuine care everyday. The opportunities that the children have at the school are wonderful with new activities and exciting days planned nearly every week and they get to play outside within the impressive grounds daily. We are so happy with our experience so far and are looking forward to the years ahead at Barfield.

The staff at Barfield are so supportive (of both parents and children), experienced and attentive. Their energy and enthusiasm is a joy to see, and I feel so grateful that my child is experiencing this fabulous start to their education.

Bravo!

Our first visit was in december and we loved the place. The primises are amazing and the staff was very nice to us showing all around. taking with the headmaster was very pleasent and was what ended up for us deciding to send my daughter there

Our son joined Barfield in September 2025 after we made the decision to move him from a different nursery. We have found Barfield to be exceptional and couldn't be more positive about it if we tried. Our son's speech has improved massively and he will literally run in in the mornings. The children and staff seem happy to be there, the outdoor space is incredible and it fosters a very nurturing and proactive environment (where staff are clearly looking out for issues with children's health and development). We've been particularly impressed with the staff who are all brilliant. The Nursery Lead is very impressive and her skills and training shine through. All staff are incredibly approachable and kind and we couldn't be happier with our experience so far.

We have two children who have attended nursery at Barfield for the past three years. It really is the most wonderful, friendly and supportive environment for the children. The staff make you feel like you are part of a family and the activities including outdoor learning, music, swimming and ballet, provide exceptional opportunities for the children to learn new skills and thrive. I particularly love the amount of outdoor space available to the children, which is unusual for a nursery. We couldn't be happier with the quality of care and nurturing they provide.

We cannot recommend Barfield nursery highly enough.

Our daughter joined Barfield in April with our need for an all-year-round nursery. Some would say quite daunting for a 3-year-old, but the nursery staff, room leads, and amazing manager made sure the transition was as smooth as possible with an abundance of support throughout. The variety of the timetable is just great, swimming, French, Music, PE, outdoor play to name a few, and the focus on special relevant topics gets talked about a lot on our journey home. I am also told how yummy the food is! A wonderful nursery/Pre-school through and through.

When there have been weeks where they have a wobbly at drop off, a message to show them happily playing really shows the way they go above and beyond. The communications excellent and they truly care. I could not recommend Barfield or the room lead enough. We decided to keep the boys in the school because of the nursery experience.

The room lead and the crew are the best out there. Couldn't recommend them enough. They are always available to help and have made our tricky-to-feed 2 year old eat healthy food. Our daughter loves it there and so do we.

Barfield Nursery is excellent in every way. From the moment you step through the doors, you're met with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine sense of care that sets the tone for everything they do. The staff are not only highly skilled and attentive, but they also bring a level of enthusiasm and kindness that makes every child feel seen, valued, and safe. Communication with parents is outstanding. You're kept informed and involved at every step, with updates that reflect not just what your child is doing, but how they're growing. It's clear that the team takes pride in building strong relationships with families. We are very impressed with everything that Barfield has to offer.

The nursery at Barfield is wonderful. Our child has gone from strength to strength as a result. The classroom is fun and stimulating. The children benefit from a full week of swimming, music, library use, French and outdoor activity which is superb. The teaching staff are exceptional.

We could not be happier with our experience at Barfield. From the very beginning, the manager, has been outstanding. She is warm, approachable, and truly dedicated to creating the best possible environment for the children. Her nurturing leadership shines through in the high standards of care and the strong relationships between staff and families. The facilities are excellent, offering a safe, engaging, and stimulating space where children can thrive. The learning schedule is broad and exciting, with opportunities such as swimming, French, PE, and outdoor learning, making each day both fun and enriching. Our son is genuinely happy here and has built strong, trusting relationships with the staff. His developmental progress under their care has been remarkable, not only academically, but socially and emotionally too. Barfield offers an excellent standard of care and education, and we feel so fortunate to have found it. Highly recommended

A special mention to the room lead who has played a huge part in both my kids young lives - the whole team are amazing and she is the glue that holds it all together! Thank you!

We visited several nurseries in the local area before making our decision, and Barfield by far outshone the other options for daycare.

This is an excellent nursery connected to a private school. The staff are wonderfully caring and always put the children's needs first. I was initially worried about my daughter's transition into a larger classroom, but the team made the process incredibly smooth. They arranged around ten induction days in her new classroom with her future teachers, which meant she felt completely comfortable and confident when the time came to move up. The facilities are also excellent and lots of outdoor learning. They have swimming classes onsite every week, ballet and even started learning french. Can't recommend enough.

Barfield is an incredible nursery and school. They have done so many amazing things for our daughter with regard to her development. She has such lovely bonds with all the staff and other children. It’s a wonderful thing to see her go in so happily every day. They are so caring, creative, professional and nurturing, and we particularly love how much time the children spend outdoors. We’re so happy we chose Barfield for our daughter.

What a wonderful nursery experience! The nursery is full of warm, nurturing staff who know my daughter inside out. It is such a joy to see the nursery children enjoy the amazing school grounds and facilities.

Barfield School Nursery is an excellent all-round childcare provider. Our daughter is challenged, fulfilled, well cared for and thoroughly exhausted at the end of each day! In a very short period of time, her development has accelerated which is great to see. I would recommend Barfield School Nursery to anyone looking for a provider in Farnham.
