Day Nurseries Owned by Inspired Learning Group in Cambridgeshire

We love Oaks! It gives a sense of family that no other nursery that we have tried has given. The setting in the hall is beautiful and so privileged to give access to nature to the kids. Learning methods are really good and playful, fantastic for these ages. Children are really well prepared to reception by the time they finish.

I highly recommend this nursery. My daughter has attended since her second birthday and we will be sending out youngest daughter as soon as she turns two. We live across town and have toured multiple nurseries in the area and none compare. Cannot recommend enough.

The online learning journal is a good system to know how children are at school, and to communicate between teachers and parents. However, my wife can't get access to it because an e-mail address with a misspelling was registered. My wife and I told about it and requested to register a correct address several times, but it has been left.

The food menu could be improved with more nutritious options like stews and soups.

Our daughter absolutely loves her time at Oaks. She is thriving, learning a lot, and having fun in a warm and nurturing environment. The staff are incredibly caring and go above and beyond to support not just the children but also their families. As we currently navigate some important changes as a family, the management team has been incredibly understanding and a tremendous source of support, making a real difference in our lives. We are incredibly grateful for their kindness, dedication, and the way they create such a positive and enriching experience for the children. Highly recommended

We are very happy with the nursery, the staff is kind and responsive to the children's Our son is always happy at the end of the day and has bonded with all full time staff. We like the emphasis on child-led learning and the opportunities for free play while being offered lots of fun age-appropriate activities too. A big bonus are the music and PE classes with dedicated teachers, a benefit of being part of the primary school.

The staff at Oaks Nursery - Cambridge International School are so welcoming and friendly. They have done a wonderful job settling my son in. He loves going to nursery and is always happy at pick up. Oaks staff have done a wonderful job supporting potty training. The observation platform is kept up to date with regular observations and its clear to see the children take part in many varied activities, including walks in the park. Wonderful nursery, environment and staff.

The leaders in the school have shown to foster a sense of community through the many events that they host and consider/take on feedback from parents when they have been communicated. We also feel incredibly lucky to have a local park as part of our school run and in the summer times, children from the nursery often play together in the playground, which only further encourages community amongst families.

The only suggestion I have is to do more activities in groups. Overall, very happy because our son comes out with a big smile every day.

Having been born in lockdown in 2020, our daughter started off being quite shy and was quite wary of new people. But soon enough, we saw her personality truly shine and this was, to a large extent, as a result of the care and love she receives at nursery! All the staff have been very kind, and the activities they develop are interesting, thought-provoking for the children and fun! As others have said, the setting is idyllic in the local park! She has really loved going to nursery and we highly recommend it for other parents!

My son and daughter have had a wonderful experience at Oaks Nursery. The nursery offers a variety of fun activities, fosters curiosity and learning and organises many seasonal events. The staff are friendly provide thoughtful advice and communicate effectively with both the children and parents. Additionally, we can clearly see what our children are doing at the nursery through the detailed weekly newsletter and comprehensive learning journals. On top of that, the location is fantastic set within a large and beautiful park that is home to many animals. I highly recommend Oaks Nursery to all parents and caregivers.

Our experience with Oaks Nursery and their staff have been fantastic. Their staff are very friendly and caring which puts us at ease every time we drop off our son every day. They take care of our son really well and they go above and beyond in making sure that he's always safe and comfortable no matter what sort of activities are planned on the day. The nursery has excellent facilities and activities to make sure that the kids are always engaged, having fun and learning important skills on a regular basis. We highly recommend this nursery and we could not speak highly enough of it. Thank you to the staff for making sure that our son's early years developments are met with such high standards.

Thank you, Oaks!

With the international title, it attracts a lot of families who have at least one non-national parent, but it's really open to all.

Our little one has been going to Oaks International School since August 2020 and really enjoys all the daily activities at the nursery and loves interacting with the teachers. As a family, we are all extremely happy with Oaks, their amazing knowledgeable nursery staff, as well as teaching philosophy. In terms of facilities, they have large, open-plan classrooms that allow the children to freely explore their interests. As the school is in Cherry Hinton Park, it offers the kids the chance to play outside, being in nature while feeding the ducks, learning about grey cygnets becoming white swans! In terms of activities, the kids have music and movement class and walks in the park every week. Moreover, there is a very friendly community between the parents. Since our little one started attending Oaks, I have recommended the school to many of our friends, some of which have now joined the school. There's a family feel to Oaks and the evidence is how the kids love going to nursery!

My little son started the nursery in September, thanks to very welcoming and professional staff he settled in quickly and now is happy coming in every morning. He even asks about the nursery on the days he stays at home with me. I like the way the staff approaches him in the morning and appreciate the feedback I receive at the end of the day. I would recommend the place to everyone.

We are so delighted with Oaks International School nursery - our daughter (two and a half) literally runs through the gate every day, she loves the nursery so much. The staff are fabulous and give so much attention and care to each child. The setting is within a lovely big park and the children get to spend lots of time outdoors. They also have music and gym lessons with teachers from the primary school, which is a huge perk. Couldn't recommend it more highly!

Being originally from Russia we had certain concerns on how going to English nursery would work for us, but results exceeded all expectations. Oaks International School staff works professionally with all the kids and does it perfectly. Our child is happy to go there, she only tells good stories about how they spent their day and seem to genuinely enjoy everything about Oaks International School. Every person working there that I had to interact with is very competent, friendly and always willing to help in all your inquiries. Various kinds of activities really help your child to develop and you can the results. Would definitely recommend this school to anyone, especially to foreigners.

Happy kids - happy parents!

Oaks is a special school. It's diversity and nurturing approach sets it apart from many nurseries we looked at. The staff are incredibly passionate and supportive. The interaction across age groups is also something all the kids benefit from, not to mention the international flavour.
