We're so pleased with The Purbrook Nursery and Pre-school.The staff are warm, caring, and supportive, and our little girl has settled in beautifully. She comes home happy and full of stories every day, and we've noticed her confidence and social skills really growing. A wonderful place for her to learn
and thrive.

Both my children went here & loved it. The friendly approachable staff at Purbrook make handovers a quick happy process. I could not have been happier with my daughter's key worker, I really feel like she took the time to get to know my daughter & understand her likes & dislikes. She encouraged her
to try new things & helped her to improve on the things she could already do. The key worker is very kind & caring & I felt safe leaving my daughter in her care. Another specific staff member also formed a very special bond with my daughter, my daughter really took a shine to this staff member & I believe she made my daughter's time at nursery so much better by being there. One of my favourite things about the nursery is the cooked meals. Both my Girls enjoyed every meal & tried things they would never have tried at home. One of my daughter's favourites was the Fish Curry. The chef always greets you with a smile & she's a Fantastic Chef. I think the whole team is a credit to the company. It's clear to see how hard they work yet nothing is ever too much trouble.

Both of my children attended this nursery, my second one only just finished as a school leaver. We will miss the nursery days. My daughter loved going to the nursery and their enviroment is amazing, always had a feel of enchanted and magical. The staff are all very supportive and had a great connection
with my daughter. She had learned, had fun and flourished. Her needs were more than met, she is a sensory seeker and she had plenty of sensory opportunities combined with calming spaces to relax.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at nursery . From the moment i walked in, the warm and welcoming environment made me feel completely at ease. The staff are not only highly qualified but also genuinely caring and attentive. It's clear they are passionate about early years education.


My

child has blossomed since starting here-developing socially, emotionally, and academically. The daily activities are thoughtfully planned, balancing learning with plenty of fun and creativity. I especially love the regular updates and photos that keep us connected to our child's day.


The communication with parents is excellent, and i always feel informed and involved. The facilities are clean, safe, and stimulating, with a lovely outdoor area that our child adores.

Cannot recommend Purbrook Day Nursery enough, we started in the baby room and are now in the last few months before school. All the staff have been amazing, are consistent, caring and mean that our daughter enjoys going to nursery.


The service from staff plus the facilities, activities and overall

My son has been going to this nursery for a year now and has really come along in his socialising with other children in his age group. He loves the activities and has started to really talk about them in detail at the end of the day. The outdoor areas are great and something my child makes the most
of everyday, as well as the ICT resources which is a real treat for them. Staff are so friendly and my son adores his key worker which makes you feel comfortable to leave them there and relax. Overall we are very happy, so much so that our daughter is starting there soon.

Our toddler has been attending the Purbrook Day Nursery for about 7 months. The staff have been so supportive of both me and my child at every development stage: adjusting to life after maternity leave, reducing breastfeeding, every toddler growth phase. Since starting there my child has developed so
much in social confidence, speech, concentration, physical activities. He has even learnt yoga and frequently impresses us with his "downward dog"! It is a real joy to see him flourishing.
The nursery are very good at communication: there are frequent e-mail notices and the staff give thorough, diligent handovers at the end of each day so I can trust I will always get the important details.
Management also handles the complex bureaucracy of the government-funded hours proficiently and send communications out in good time.
They cook all meals fresh on-site and they are always good quality. They have a good garden space as well as the comfy baby snug room. My toddler is very happy there.

My son has been going to Purbrook Nursery for the past 6 months, in the baby snug room. Almost immediately I noticed a huge difference in his self confidence outside of nursery, with a willingness to explore different environments and meet new people.
He has built a really strong connection with his
key person, who is such a lovely woman. She is always extremely enthusiastic to great us in the morning and makes us feel like more than just 'another kid walking through the door' she really knows my son and his interests and seems just as passionate and excited about him meeting milestones as we are as parents.
The room leader, is also always extremely welcoming and is clearly very knowledgeable about the development and education of young children.
I am always very impressed with the range of activities provided for the children and its clear that thought is always put in to include the children's interests and get them involved. we are very happy with our experience!

Our little ones have both been attending this nursery for around 3 months now, one in Toddlers and one in the Baby Snug. This was the second nursery that we visited but really felt from one open day that this was the setting that we wanted our children to attend. They have both flourished since starting
and have created lovely bonds with the staff which have been so nice to witness, particularly their keyworkers. Our little ones are always really happy to be going to nursery and my toddler enjoys telling us all about what she gets up to and who she plays with. The staff seem to be really friendly and caring which helps me feel comfortable with leaving them there. We recently attended the Christmas Fayre and were amazed at the amount of activities that there were for the children to do. Although we were very sad to miss out on the Christmas dinner. We're very happy with the choice that we made to send our babies to this nursery.

Our Son has been at the nursery since he was 11 months old and he is now 3. Our daughter also attended the pre-school before she started school. The staff continue to be attentive, caring and always paying very close attention to the children's needs. Our Son enjoys going in and there is a range of
varied activities each day. He is also very keen on the meals and apparently regularly asks for seconds. The staff clearly build strong relationships with the children and they enjoy working there. It is lovely to see the bond our son has with his key worker. This year the Christmas fayre was brilliant with lots of festive activities, Santa's Grotto and even 2 real donkeys. We are very much looking forward to the Christmas singalong at the church and can't wait to see what 2025 brings.

I have 2 boys at the nursery one preschool and one baby room. I cannot praise them highly enough. Baby room always give a great hand over and let us know what they have done in the day as well as how they have eaten, how they have slept. Preschool is just as good and my son has a hard time with food
and is struggling with textures etc. The staff have created a food diary to help us know what he has eaten and how much each day so we can keep him on his growth track.
Fantastic environment that I fully believe has encouraged and help to grow my children.

My son has been with Purbrook Nursery for just under 2 years, having moved from another local Nursery. His transition was seamless and he settled very well into the setting. The staff have always been so friendly, hard-working and caring. My son has a list of allergies which are challenging to navigate,
the staff at the Nursery have been excellent in managing this, keeping our son safe and putting my wife and my minds at rest knowing that he was safe. The setting is well-resourced and our son has always really developed in all aspects from attending this nursery.

The Baby Snug team are amazing! My daughter was a bit shy at first when starting but I have seen her come on so much and grow and learn and that's all thanks to her key worker and the team! I feel so comfortable sending my daughter and I can say she thoroughly enjoys it and I love hearing all the activities
she has been up to when she is collected! Also when I hear what she has had to eat throughout the day it makes me very jealous as it sounds so amazing and nutritional. Nothing is ever too much and they do really care about the children!

The nursery has been amazing for our 2 daughters. Both our toddler and our baby love attending and always look forward to their days at nursery! We have been very fortunate to have amazing key workers throughout the girl's time at the nursery. The lady in the baby room really helped us through a tricky
