Overall Experience

My son has been attending Bramleys for over a year now and I could not recommend the nursery enough. He is very happy and developing so well. The key workers are very attentive and recognise his individual needs. Any queries are dealt with quickly. The monthly newsletter app and regular events help you feel connected and involved.

Review from Alexander L (Father of Child) published on 9 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Busy bees Ardington for nearly 2 years and she loves it there. She instantly settled in, and the staff promote the children to make friends and help each other grow together. My daughter is always excitedly telling me about her daytime activities on collection. Sarah appears to have good control over the staff who have all been very caring and motivated. Probably the best thing about the nursery is the vast outdoor space, which the children thrive in.

Overall Experience
The impact the team have had on our family is immeasurable. Since starting, I have seen a significant and beautiful improvement in my child's confidence, social skills, and overall development. She comes home excited about her day, bursting with stories about what she has learned and the fun she has had. It is clear that she feels safe, valued, and loved every single day.
All thanks to the team for their dedication, patience, and energy.

I cannot recommend this wonderful nursery highly enough!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending since September 2023. All staff are friendly & go above & beyond for the children. My daughter has been on the SEND pathway since just before age 2, I couldn't of got enough help from the nursery, supporting all the way leading to my daughter diagnosis. Adapt to her needs and support as necessary. My daughter loves coming to nursery and I'm at ease when she is.

The nursery location is just beautiful! The nursery is close to the woodlands and my children really enjoys exploring the woods with his friends. The gardens are huge and they spend a lot of time outside, the staff are very friendly and always willing to help.

Overall Experience

I adore this Nursery! My daughter has been coming to Ardington for around a year. The preschool is fantastic with her. She struggles with attachment and they have been so supportive and patient with her. The managment and her team are amazing. Communication with Ardington is top! The office staff and management are kind and caring and I never feel like I'm putting them out or bothering them. They always welcome us in with a smile. Dream team and my little one is so happy.

My son loves Bramleys Day Nursery. He is really happy, settled and has made great connections with the staff and his key worker. His development has greatly improved since attending nursery and we are beyond impressed with the care and attention his key worker gives him.

We would certainly recommend to friends and family in the area.

Review from Alison S (Mother of Child) published on 30 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been with Bramleys Day Nursery, Ardington since 4 months old and not a day has gone by where we don’t absolutely appreciate the staff there! Everyone has taken such amazing care of her and everyone seems to know her! From those early days where she needed rocking to sleep for a nap, to now dealing with the rambunctious toddler she’s become. We feel Ardington have played a huge part in helping us raise our daughter and wouldn’t trust her with anyone else for day care!

Review from K G (Mother of Child) published on 24 August 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started in the baby room just before she was 1 and will be leaving to start school in September. The nursery has been invaluable to her development and progression. Whilst she definitely has her favourites, all the staff are patient and kind and have the best interests and safety of all the children at heart. When I had concerns about my child, the management always dealt with me professionally and quickly.

The food options on the menu aren't to my preference and I would question some of the dishes being offered but on the whole, I believe a nutritional balance has been reached.

Overall, the nursery ethos is an extension of my beliefs and has helped my daughter be the best that she can be and has prepared her for "big school". Thank you.

Review from Daniel G (Father of Child) published on 16 August 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This is a fantastic nursery in an idyllic setting. It is in a small village backing on to woods that is used for woodland walks and nature exploring. The staff are great with the children and they do a lot of different activities with them to help with the development of skills. They have recently replaced a lot of toys and equipment that my son loves playing with and a lot of the time does not want to leave he has so much fun. His connection with his key worker is amazing and I always look forward to hearing what he has been up to.

The food they supply is amazing quality and varied and in fact, I think my son eats better at nursery than I do.

I can't thank the staff enough, they have developed my son so much over the last 18 months.

Overall Experience
This is a warm and friendly place where the children feel protected, nurtured and loved.

They concentrate in making learning fun, social development and awareness of the outside world.

My children are always happy to go and look forward to it. They have developed good relationships with the nursery workers and are made to feel part of the larger family.

Our 2.5 year old daughter has attended Ardington since she was 8 months old, and absolutely loves it.

The staff are more than helpful and can't do enough to assist and the facility is first class. The ideal setting for a young person's development and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it!

Our son has been at Bramleys for 2 years and has settled well, the staff are supportive and know the children well. The outdoor space is a real positive despite the muddy clothes! We feel the food is varied and well prepared. We have had a few invoicing issues which were sorted eventually.

Review from J R (Mother of Child) published on 16 August 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been attending the nursery since 1 years old and now is in the 2-3 year old room. The staff are lovely, and although I know who my child’s key worker is, I am comfortable talking to any of the ladies there, as they all know my child well. There are plenty of opportunities for outside play and great stimulation for the children in the different planned activities they do each day. I’m happy knowing that my child has been offered a good variety of food.

Overall Experience

Our daughter attends this nursery and has done since she was a year old. The staff are lovely and are amazing with the children, our little girl loves it and has learnt so much since she started. She is confident and always comes home with something new to share with us.

The menu is fantastic - so much so I feel quite jealous of what’s she’s eaten during the day. The activities she does always sound fun and filled with opportunities to learn something new.

We are very lucky to be able to send our little girl to such a lovely nursery with such caring and knowledgeable staff. Her days are filled with fun, learning and nutritious food! What more could you ask for.
