Oak Tree Day Nursery in Finchampstead, Wokingham, proudly holds an Outstanding Ofsted rating (August 2024), recognising its exceptional quality of care, education, and commitment to children’s development.
The nursery inspires children to become investigative and curious about the world around them through rich, small-world play experiences. It features a bespoke growing area and greenhouse, where children develop a love and appreciation for nature by growing fruits, vegetables, and plants - which they can later use in cooking activities or even to create their own natural inks.
A dedicated learning library is available for families, offering books, story sacks, and activity bags designed to support learning at home, as well as to help children navigate new experiences and emotions.
The nursery’s diverse team ensures that individual cultures and backgrounds are celebrated and shared with children in meaningful, everyday ways. Activities such as singing and reading stories in Spanish enrich the children’s understanding of the wider world.
Family involvement is at the heart of Oak Tree Day Nursery. The team listens closely to parents and children to create a warm, home-from-home environment where everyone feels part of one big family.

From the daily planned activities, free flow to the garden area and lovely meals that they eat. I always feel welcomed to the room and the staff give me a hand over about their day which gives me the information to continue meeting their needs when in my charge.

Oak Tree Day Nursery (Finchampstead) has provided a brilliant start to my son's pre-school education. My son found it very difficult to settle in at first as he was so used to being with me. The staff at Oak Tree have really helped us as a family to overcome his initial worries and within no time he has settled and loves every minute of his time there. With patience and care, the staff have helped him to build up relationships with all of the staff and children. The nursery is a safe, happy and friendly environment. His development goes from strength to strength and we are excited to see him grow and progress.

Our daughter has come on leaps and bounds since attending Oaktree Nursery. We were nervous about her attending nursery at such a young age (9 months). The team have been absolutely fantastic in keeping her entertained and us informed.
She enjoys a variety of activities, whether that’s painting, sensory play and eating! The all round quality of Oaktree is second to none. The staff are friendly, caring and attentive. There are a number of ways that they let us know how our daughter is progressing - whether that's through the ParentZone mobile app, an end of day report, a quick chat in the morning or evening, or through attending one of the nursery's Open Days.
Oaktree Nursery offers a perfect blend of learning and playing at a really competitive price.

My son currently attends Oak Tree and has done since he was a baby. The nursery itself is bright, clean and like a home away from home. The staff in his room welcome him every morning with smiles and cuddles and I feel 100% comfortable leaving him there. He was a picky baby and not great with strangers but he has flourished under the care and attention he receives from the staff and now quite often wants to know why we aren't going to nursery on a Saturday morning! The meals are varied and I appreciate that the children receive a proper meal for dinner as well as lunch. The nursery stays involved with parents via regular parent meetings and weekly emails about what's going on in the nursery which is great because I can often discuss with my son what he will be getting up to at nursery next week. I would recommend Oak Tree for anyone who likes that homely feel for their child and a real sense of love from the staff.

The food is very nutritious and our daughter often mentions the kitchen assistant and likes to wave to him in the kitchen on her way home.
Our twin boys have excelled since being in nursery. The facilities team and key workers are excellent in all regards. The boys were very premature and Oak Tree works tirelessly to minimise the gaps. We would recommend Oak Tree Finchampstead every opportunity we could.

Our baby boy has been with Oak Tree Day Nursery since he was 5 months old. He is now 22 months. All of the staff are extremely loving and caring and attentive to him. They always celebrate his achievements with so much enthusiasm. Oak Tree staff keep us very well informed of all his daily activities, food intake (which is so healthy and yummy and wonderfully cooked on site) and nappy changing. It is a joy to see how much he has developed in nearly 1 and half years when we look through his dossier. The range of toys and activities is very broad, to keep little people happily learning. The garden space is divided so that every room has their own little space, where they explore colours, textures, sounds, nature. We are very happy with the nursery and would certainly recommend it.
We had a bit of a rocky start, partly because my son was unsettled (first time in nursery) and partly through lack of communication during change of manager.

We had a bit of a rocky start, partly because my son was unsettled (first time in nursery) and partly through lack of communication during change of manager. However I think we have now got over the hurdle and we have had a massive turnaround and I now feel absolutely delighted with this nursery. I feel that on occasions there is a lack of resources e.g paper, working pens etc but overall this is simple to resolve. I would like to see my sons learning log now that we have been here 9 weeks.

Great nursery and amazing staff! My son is finishing his first year there and now moving from Bumblebees to Pre - school.

My daughter has started in Oak Tree in February and has really loved it from day 1. The staff are lovely and made her feel so welcome. Having moved a long way from overseas we were afraid our daughter might find it difficult to settle in a new nursery but she loved it from the beginning. She really loves the wonderful outdoor play area in particular.
Pre-school room is fantastic. My son is so happy at nursery and regularly tells us. The quality of staff in the room are excellent, my only challenge is getting time at the end of the day to discuss my son in detail (this is not all the time but on occasions) as is mainly due to a popular pick up...
Quality of learning is excellent with key topic areas identified and shared very well with children. An overall excellent experience. I have been using Oaktree for 8 years and it had highs and lows. I feel like I have got the great Oaktree back with it's current team.

The food provided is excellent and the variety is very good. Management is also very helpful and available to discuss any concerns or answer any query. I am glad my girls have the opportunity to be part of the Oak Tree environment.

My experience with Oak Tree has been wonderful, I couldn't ask for a better nursery. Being working parents, my 3 year old daughter attends Oak Tree full time. The staff in Oak Tree are professional and experienced, they have helped my child to learn and grow to be more independent. It has been nice to be able to discuss with the staff to get practical advice during challenging times I experienced with my daughter. The staff and nursery manager really look out for us and are so caring. Thank you Oak Tree and all the staff working here! I would definitely recommend this nursery, you wont be left disappointed.

My son is about to complete his first term at Oak Tree and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff and the business for everything.

All the staff have been very helpful and friendly throughout. I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

My name is Becca, and I am the Nursery Manager at Oaktree. I have been working in Early Years since 2005 when I got my first part time job in a nursery, whilst studying my A levels. I soon realised that this was more than a job and I had a true passion for childcare and all that comes with it. After completing my A levels in Health and Social Care and Physiology I decided to pursue a career in Childcare. I received my qualification in December 2008 and quickly progressed through the nursery. I worked as Deputy Manager at Oaktree for 5 years and in December 2022 I took over as Manager.
At Oaktree we love to get outdoors and explore nature. We feel that it is important that the children learn to look after the planet therefore we joined Eco schools and have been awarded our green flag. The team and I have a passion for charity and love to give back to the community. We sponsor a charity a year and hold different charitable events to get the families and children involved. We also regularly collect items for the local food bank and teach the children about the importance of helping others.
