Review from Shannen H (Mother of Child) published on 20 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff at Brinds Well Day Nursery (Orpington) are amazing. We have noticed that our daughter has gained so much confidence and language since attending the nursery. The staff all seem to really care for the children in their care and always tailor activities based on each child's interest as best they can. We receive regular feedback about our daughter's progression and they regular assess her against the early learning goals.
Our daughter enjoys her time at nursery and we have seen her go from strength to strength while attending the nursery.

The management also always go the extra mile to greet us in the morning and know all of the children and their families. They go above and beyond to make the nursery feel like an extension of the family. Couldn't recommend Brindswell enough!

Overall Experience

Brinds Well, is a parent's dream. We have two daughters there currently and both are thriving. From the very first settle sessions, the key workers developed great bonds with our daughters and alleviated any fears I had. The staff are what really makes this nursery special. Everyone is kind, friendly and supportive of the children. It still amazes me that so many staff members know our daughter's names and chats to them when they see them. They make the children feel safe and give parents peace of mind. Our eldest daughter has flourished in her new room and can't wait to tell me about all her friends and the activities they've been doing. Her speech has come on leaps and bounds. The outside space is fantastic and the children are encouraged to play outside, daily. The nursery manager makes you feel like part of the family and is always on hand if you need her. I would wholeheartedly recommend Brinds Well to any parent and couldn't think of a better setting for our children to be in.

Overall Experience

My son started here in the end of August, this year and I am surprised how quickly he adapted to the new environment. He absolutely loves going to nursery and looks forward to every day. The staff is lovely and caring, my son adores them all. He talks about them, even at home. It makes me very happy to see how happy and content he is at Brindswell. I would not look anywhere else.

Overall Experience

I can honestly say that Brinds Well Nursery is every mother's dream. The staff are so lovely, so caring and so professional. My son joined in August 2022 with severe speech delays at 2.5 years old and straight away the staff ensured we worked together as a team to help his speech and everyone in the family has commented over the huge improvement and how much happier our son is, in this healthy and constructive setting. I know my son is safe, having fun and is developing well with the care and devotion of the whole Brinds Well team.

My two daughters have gone to Brinds Well Day Nursery Orpington and my youngest is due to leave in August. The manager there is brilliant and the kids adore her. The rooms are really spacious and there is so much outdoor space; with outdoor play encouraged. I couldn’t recommend this nursery more.

Overall Experience

My daughter is always talking about what she has been doing at 'school' and what her teachers have done with her. She is always coming out with words and sounds, numbers and letters she has been learning about. The nursery have been very accommodating towards our individual circumstances as well.

My daughter has come on in leaps and bounds since being at Brinds Well. The staff go above and beyond to put parents at ease, even calling when my daughter wasn't in to check in when she has been unwell. We will miss it so much in September when she starts school! Thank you!

Review from Caroline D (Mother of Child) published on 3 May 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We began with Brinds Well in October 2014 and when I was due with my second child, there was nowhere else we even considered viewing. The nursery is so bright and spacious and the rooms are well organised and clean
The outside space is second to none and the variety of activities available to them is vast.
The staff are fantastic, so friendly and nurturing, my children have loved it here and always look forward to attending ... and don't want to leave!

The learning is great, not only educational but also in everyday lives, preparing them for the next steps and the world around them. I can't recommend Brinds Well highly enough, we'll be sad to leave this summer.

Overall Experience

This is an amazing nursery. My daughter really enjoyed her time there. We could see her development every day when she was at the nursery. Staff are very friendly and professional. The development framework is very comprehensive including physical activity, language skills etc. The nursery also has spacious spaces both indoors and outdoors. We would highly recommend the nursery.

Overall Experience

This is my second child at this nursery and sincerely, they just keep getting better and better. The staff are enthusiastic and welcoming, my daughter has to be dragged home at the end of the day! The leadership are easy to speak with and during and after all the lockdowns, they have done their best to support parents. Thoroughly recommend this nursery. My daughter is thriving and Brinds Well definitely has a huge part to play in this.

Review from Zea (Mother of Child) published on 8 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son attended the nursery for nearly 3 years and my daughter joined when she was only 10 months and our experience with the nursery has been amazing. Both my children have flourished, became very independent and learned a lot. The staff are very caring they know the children very well and monitor their development throughout. One of the reasons we picked this nursery was the grounds, the outdoor space that the children get to play and explore in is wonderful, from the playground to climbing frames.

Overall Experience
Our son has had a wonderful time developing and growing under the care of the Ladybirds staff, in particular his keyworker.
All the staff at the nursery have been wonderful from the moment I looked around, to the helpful front of house staff, all the lovely carers in the rooms not to mention the kitchen staff who provide the children with wonderful home-cooked meals every day.
We are sad to be moving on from the nursery as we are moving and only wish our son had had a bit more time there.

Thank you so much Brindswell.

Review from Sani J (Mother of Child) published on 14 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our 4-year-old daughter absolutely loves the nursery but more importantly, for us, the staff and ethos of the place completely aligns with our parenting style which is to teach her independence, good decision making, inclusion and respect. In addition, the kids are outside as much as possible, no matter the weather, which is really important to us. The nursery has a huge garden and lots of sensory activities are done outside. Each week the staff design activities around specific themes, which teaches the kids about the world they live in, be that focused on nature, recycling, science or race, and culture. In preschool, they have also been doing a lot of “school ready” activities such as numbers and letters as well as using a computer. More importantly, they’ve also been speaking to my daughter about school life, including very practical things like lunch boxes.

The staff have gone above and beyond to help settle my son into nursery (this was especially hard after being in lockdown). I receive lovely photos of him taking part in activities and the regular assessments show how my son is progressing. The staff's knowledge always amazes me and I am always grateful for their advise. On top of all that, we are always greeted with a smile and a friendly face.

I have only good words to say about Brinds Well!
My son joined from 1 years old to pre-school and he absolutely loved it and so did we!
We were so happy with Brinds Well, when I had my daughter I couldn’t bear the thought of her going anywhere else, she is now there and is extremely happy, she loves her key worker and so do we!

The care and attention that goes into the children is a huge relief and peace of mind for me.
