About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

The staff are friendly, approachable and professional. They clearly care about the children and form fantastic bonds and relationships with them. Whenever one of my girls has had difficulty with separation, been a bit emotional, or generally had any typical toddler behaviour troubles, the staff at Brindswell have always been on hand to help, re-enforce behaviours I encourage at home and offer tips from their professional point of view. We will be sad to leave Brindswell later this year.
Brinds Well Day Nursery (Orpington) is great. My child is having a wonderful time playing and learning with her friends. The staff are wonderful and friendly. She is really enjoying all the activities and learning lots about different cultures too which is wonderful.

My child really enjoys her time at nursery and is always so excited to tell me about her day and surprises me with the new things she has learnt. The practitioners are so caring and ensure her needs are met and is engaged and happy. The resources are great, especially with the addition of the loose parts and everyday items they now have to explore.
This nursery is home from home with wonderful staff, fantastic management and engaging & enjoyable rooms for the children! We absolutely love Brindswell! Our children have progressed with their communication skills, independence and confidence by attending the nursery! 5 stars all the way!

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!
My daughter loves going to nursery. Communication is very good between parents and staff. There are many events held to let parents get involved with the children. Would recommend to everyone.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.
This is an absolutely lovely nursery. My son has enjoyed it since day one, always smiling when I bring him in. The staff are lovely and take lots of photos of the various activities children do. The facilities are also amazing with lovely garden space. Would recommend to anyone.

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.

Hello, my name is Vanessa, and I am the Manager of Brinds Well Day Nursery.
I have worked in the Early Years sector since 2008 and have been part of Childbase since 2012. Throughout my career, I have gained a range of qualifications, including Level 2 and Level 3 in Childcare, a Level 5 in Leadership and Management, and a Level 5 in Operational Management.
What is your favourite part of working at Brinds Well?I love working at Brindswell Day Nursery because it is such a welcoming, positive and inspiring place to work. One of the things I value most is being part of such a diverse team. Everyone brings different experiences, ideas and strengths, and I really enjoy learning from the people around me and working together as a team. The nursery itself is also a wonderful environment to work in. The purpose-built building is beautiful, thoughtfully designed and creates such a lovely atmosphere for both the children and staff. I especially love the beautiful, calm outdoor spaces, which give the children opportunities to explore, learn and enjoy being outside in a peaceful environment.
What are you most proud of about your nursery/team?I am most proud of how everyone works together as one team. We genuinely feel like a family, and there is such a strong sense of support, kindness and togetherness. I’m proud that we have created a positive, happy and calming environment where everyone feels supported and valued. We work together to make sure the children are happy, settled and given the best possible experiences, while also looking out for one another as colleagues. For me, it’s the sense of family and the positive atmosphere that makes our team so special. I feel very proud to be part of a team that supports each other, celebrates each other’s strengths and works together to create such a lovely place for children, families and staff.
