Orchard House Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead)

Solid foundations from which to grow!

Oak Tree is a lovely nursery, with a lovely family feel to it. The staff is kind, caring and well trained. They have been looking after our daughter since she was just over one and we have had an incredible experience throughout the years, up until pre-school. We knew she was being looked after in a safe and cheerful environment. The nursery is well equipped with toys and items for all ages and they make sure to always engage the children in new activities. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Both my boy and our family loved going to Oak Tree Nursery. We started our journey with Oak Tree when the little one was 5 months old and he is now 2. The staff, from receptionists to nursery nurses are beyond amazing. Our boy really bonded with the key person and the key person was engaging with our boy in a loving way. If possible I would love to have our boy stay in Oak Tree forever. Would definitely recommend it to everyone who’s close by.

Since 2021, my son has been attending the nursery and preschool at Oak Tree Day Nursery. He is happy and cheerful to go to preschool. He has thrived and feels more confident with the support of the lovely staff. He is able to be himself which as a parent makes me feel reassured. The staff are friendly, approachable, caring and dedicated. The communication through the app allows the parent to be updated with the daily activities taking place at the nursery, hence this good communication allowed me to feel more involved in my son's playtime/ activities. I will definitely choose the same nursery in the future.

The staff clearly care about the children so much. Absolutely brilliant “readiness for school” curriculum from phonics to practising getting changed for PE to getting school uniform in from all the schools the children are going to so they can get used to it. Spectacular graduation ceremony for pre-schoolers, a proper tear-jerker - with so much time and effort put in by staff. I would say communication could be slightly better from management and better information provided when children change rooms but that’s about it.

Oaktree looks after our daughter two days a week. We noticed they were outstanding in Ofsted, which was a clear sign of high standards. Our daughter was settled in with the utmost care and attention, she's so happy, and there's no crying with drop-off and pick-up! The rooms are so well presented, and they're lots of toys and activities that our daughter enjoys with the other children. The staff are amazing, friendly and caring, and you can see their dedication to the welfare of all the children.

We love Oaktree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) everyone who works there is always really friendly and helpful. My son has been attending since he was 1 year old and moved through the different rooms. They have all been amazing and my son's confidence and social skills have improved greatly. We now have a daughter and I would not hesitate to send her here when I return to work, as I know she will be very well looked after. The communication is very good and my son has said he is really going to miss going when he starts school in September!

We have recently moved to the UK from a different country and needless to say I was very nervous about my children starting nursery in a foreign country, especially as they were very attached to their previous school. From day one, Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) has been incredible. The staff communicate beautifully with parents, there are always different activities and the children are happy, busy and friendly. My boys have settled so well in a very short period of time and I appreciate the constant updates from the nursery. They are excited to go and they tell us all about their happy days in the evenings. The food is unbelievable as well. One member of staff has been the most incredible lady to my children and her kind, gentle nature has certainly made our boys feel right at home. I will be very sad to leave this amazing nursery when they start reception, I cannot recommend it enough!

I would 100% recommend Oak Tree Day Nursery to anyone.

My son started at Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) in January 2022 when he was 14 months old. All of the girls in the caterpillar's room have all been so welcoming to him and he’s excited to arrive there each day already. The app is great and very reassuring too. Couldn’t be happier with our experience so far!

We are so please with Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead)! Our daughter joined 2 months ago and she’s been loving it and have seen a real difference. We love having all the updates with pictures throughout the day. It makes such a difference to parents who are working. Couldn’t be happier with our choice.

My daughter started going to this nursery when she was around 10 months old and she is 1 year old now. She was a very picky eater from the beginning which made me more concerned. The staff in Oak Tree Day Nursery, especially from caterpillar room, took so much care when it comes to her mealtimes from day 1 and we can definitely see improvement towards her daily meal intake now. A big thanks to the team. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming. My daughter enjoys going to her nursery with a big smile on her face every day. As a parent, I would definitely recommend Oak Tree Day nursery to everyone.

Two children at/through Oak Tree. Both have thrived in the really nurturing environment. They have some really lovely key workers looking after the children, who they have grown to really like. In particular, the room leaders have been very good.

Very good nursery. I would recommend it to anyone who needs one. Staff are great. Both my children went to this one.

My son has attended Oaktree since he was 4 months old. He is now 3. He is the most caring, outgoing, and loving little soul. We have Oaktree to thank for that. The team there has supported every step of his development, even down to his fussy eating and reluctance to sleep. We have always known he is in the best hands when we drop him off and any concerns are always highlighted with immediate communication. The team is amazing. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

My little boy joined Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) during the pandemic and while I was nervous about the thought of leaving him somewhere that I had never seen the inside of, I was immediately reassured by his key worker. My little one is not great with strangers but yet he bonded very quickly with all the nursery staff. He has come on leaps and bounds in his language, knowledge and understanding and that is definitely down to nursery. The parent zone app that the nursery use helps us stay up to date throughout the day with whats happening and is regularly updated with pictures and messages of activities that the children are doing. The nursery also give parents the opportunity to feel involved by setting up events, theme days and challenges but with no pressure to take part. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchamsptead) to anyone considering it.

My son has been going to Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) since he turned one in January and he absolutely loves it! He always comes out smiling, happy and the pictures and updates we get during the day are lovely. Plus its really useful to know what he's eaten and how well he's napped. All the staff I have met are really friendly and take really good care of the children.

Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) is a fantastic nursery! My little girl has been there for the last eighteen months and loves it. The staff are brilliant, caring, fun and committed to supporting the child’s development. With my daughter now in the pre-school room, I can really see the effort they are putting in to ready the children for school, from teaching early stage phonics through to supporting their independence. I fully recommend Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) to anyone considering it.

Our daughter joined when she was 8 months old. She is now in preschool and still loving it. We got to know most of the staff and we can see how much they care. Everything is so friendly. I cannot fault this nursery, even during the past challenging months they have been so helpful, professional and the communication throughout was fantastic.

We are so pleased with how quickly our daughter has settled into Oak Tree Day Nursery. The observations on her are very detailed with clear next steps. She comes home every day telling us about what she has done, singing a new song or repeating a phrase from a book. The communication between us and nursery staff is fantastic (especially considering COVID restrictions). I can’t thank or praise the staff enough, especially in Bumblebees (the room our daughter is in). Thank you for all your hard work.
