We've had such a positive experience with the team at Old Barn since our Dexter started in January. The team have been incredibly supportive and patience with his transition into nursery and his new routine. His settling in sessions before starting were so well thought out and made me feel at ease for
when he started properly - making it a much smoother transition. I drop Dexter to nursery happy and don't worry about him knowing he's in safe, loving hands.
Reply from Laura Malthouse, Nursery Manager at The Old Barn Day Nursery Baby SuiteThank you for such a wonderful review of the baby suite. The settling process is something we are very proud of embedding into the very first days. Not only is it to settle the children in smoothly but it is also so you as parents/carers are eased into the the transition of trusting at first, "strangers" looking after your pride and joy. Parent Partnership is something we work incredibly hard on so you all feel relaxed into allowing the team to look after your children. Little man has been a pleasure to look after and I know the team absolutely adore him. Thank you so much for choosing the baby suite and allowing the team to deliver high quality childcare to you. Thank you :)

My 15month son has been with Chayse & her wonderful team since he was 11 months old & we truly couldn't be happier. They have been amazing with him, & it's been a joy to watch his confidence, skills & personality grow over the past few months. The team are attentive & always happy to accommodate our
preferences, from milk choices to following his usual sleep routine, which gives us great reassurance.
The room feels warm & welcoming at drop-off, especially seeing the babies enjoying breakfast together. We love receiving photo updates during the day, which give us a lovely glimpse into his activities & smiles. At pick-up, we're given thoughtful handovers so we always feel informed. He's often happily exploring the cosy sensory room at the top of the garden, which he clearly loves. A huge thank you to Chayse, Louise & Chloe for making his transition smooth, stress-free & so positive.
Reply from Laura Malthouse, Nursery Manager at The Old Barn Day Nursery Baby SuiteWhat a lovely review of the baby suite. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review of the team and the care they offer. They truly are amazing and I am grateful to have such a wonderful set of practitioners to care for the babies. I will ensure the team get to see what you have had to say about the care they offer to you and the family. You are a pleasure to look after and we are grateful you chose our setting as your nursery provider for both children. Thank you :)

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter started with the nursery in Nov 2025, she was 16 months old and we were extremely nervous about this change as she wasn't comfortable with adults outside of her direct family. Chayse, Amber, Laura and the team have been exceptional, our daughter started in the baby unit and settled in really
well, all of the staff members really took time to bond and understand her, this was so comforting for my wife and I. The way the team managed her sleep and food gave us so much confidence. Recently our daughter has moved into the pre toddler room and she is loving it, I can see how happy she is and how much of a great day she has had every time I pick her up. I have so much confidence in the entire staff. Laura, Amber, Chayse and Luisa are who I have had most interaction with and they have been amazing with us and our daughter.
Thanks so much all!
Aaron
Reply from Laura Malthouse, Nursery Manager at The Old Barn Day Nursery Baby SuiteThank you so much for the kind words with your review.

Thank you so much once again, I will ensure the team get to read this wonderful review.

My wife and I have been blown away by the quality of the car at the Old Barn. Our son is just coming to the end of his time in the baby room at the end of next month and we're really sad to be leaving the team, but also so excited for him to progress to the next stage. Every time I'm able to either
pick up, or drop off my son, I can feel the care that the team give to each child they have with them. They're quick to communicate, quick to praise and very good at providing gentle advise in a non-judgmental way should they think we could work on certain behavioural aspects at home. Coming to the old barn has been one of the best decisions we've ever made for our son.
Reply from Laura Malthouse, Nursery Manager at The Old Barn Day Nursery Baby SuiteWow Hamish, thank you so much for a great review of the baby suite! I know the team are going to miss little man and you guys as a family but he is definitely ready for the next stage of development. I will ensure the team read this so they know how much impact they make on the children and you as a family. What a lovely review for a great team. Thank you :)

We've had a wonderful experience at Old Barn, in the baby room and having now moved to to pre toddlers. The staff are lovely and caring, we stay informed of how things have gone throughout the day, and they've gone above and beyond to provide community days for parents (such as a Halloween celebration)
which really helps foster community. I think best of all is that the staff are consistent and there isn't high turnover like at some nurseries. You know exactly who is watching your child all day, and they really get to know your child on a deeper level. My only negative is that it is quite pricey in comparison to others in the area.
Reply from Laura Malthouse, Nursery Manager at The Old Barn Day Nursery Baby SuiteThank you so much for your kind review of the setting. I will ensure the baby team get to read this alongside the pre-toddler team. The staff are wonderful across both ages and your little one has been a pleasure to look after! Thank you so much

I cannot speak highly enough of The Old Barn Nursery. From the moment we arrive each morning, we are greeted with warmth, kindness, and genuine care - not just for the children, but for the whole family.
The staff consistently make the start of the day calm and reassuring, taking the time to welcome
my grandchild with smiles, encouragement, and familiar routines that clearly make them feel safe and happy. It brings me such peace of mind knowing they are being left in such caring and capable hands.
I have seen first-hand how attentive and nurturing the team are, and how well they truly know each child as an individual. My grandchild has grown in confidence, independence, and happiness, and it's clear how much he enjoys his time at nursery.
The Old Barn Nursery is a very special place with a wonderful team who go above and beyond every single day. As a grandmother, it is incredibly comforting to know my grandchild is so well cared for - we are truly grateful and highly recommend them.

I couldn't recommend Laura, Chayse and all their amazing team that look after the babies at the old barn.
My daughter has had the best care since joining in October and am constantly reassured by the team of her welfare. I regularly receive updates about what she's doing including photos and will
also get a heads up if they notice an illness up and coming (which has been frequent)!
Chayse often checks in on how I am personally going above and beyond measures of her duty's. The team also leaves out little breakfast to-go for the parents if they are in a rush, a gesture so sweet and considerate for those morning rushes.
Thank you staff for giving me such reassurance knowing my daughter is in the best hands.

The Old Barn Nursery has been absolutely exceptional for our family. From the very first visit, we felt a sense of warmth, care, and reassurance that immediately put us at ease.


As parents, leaving your child in someone else's care can be daunting, but the staff at The Old Barn go above and beyond

to make both children and parents feel supported and confident. The nurturing environment, genuine kindness, and dedication shown by the team is truly remarkable.


Our son has thrived during their time here - developing confidence, learning new skills, and absolutely loving every day at nursery. The staff take the time to really know each child, celebrate their individuality, and support their development in such a thoughtful and caring way.


We couldn't be more grateful for everything The Old Barn Nursery has done for our family. An outstanding nursery with an incredible team - we cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you for all that you do.

Reply from Laura Malthouse, Nursery Manager at The Old Barn Day Nursery Baby SuiteWhat a lovely review to walk into this morning! Thank you so much for your kind words in regards to the care the whole team provide from start to finish. It is absolutely what I want to be hearing that you felt comfortable from the very first visit. We want nothing more but to create a homely atmosphere for all our parents/carers. I will ensure this review reaches all the team so they can read this. Thank you once again, means a lot to us a team.

This nursery has been the most warm, welcoming and supportive place for both me and my daughter. My daughter joined in the baby room when she was 9 months old, as a new mother the fear of nursery and leaving your children with at the beginning strangers is a scary thought but the comfort I felt as soon
as I viewed this nursery was just incredible. My daughter absolutely loved the baby room and the staff did EVERYTHING to help with development and teaching her so many important skills. The staff especially Chayse helped me to build confidence with leaving her and I just couldn't praise this nursery enough. My daughter is now in the toddler room and still is loving every minute. Thankyou Old Barn for everything. As a family we are so grateful :)

My daughter has been at the Old Barn and Pre-Prep since she was one year old. She absolutely adores each and every one of her key workers and all of the staff across both sites. The staff treat the children as their own family and the children absolutely adore them. My daughter comes back every week
telling me how much she adores nursery and her teachers, she is so happy here. The forest school is a highlight of her week, alongside all of the fun activities they do each day. Our daughter is very lucky to have received her early years education at this nursery and the staff here are just incredible. They know each child inside out and care for their needs incredibly. As a direct result the environment is so happy and positive and this is not easy to achieve, thank you so much to all of you wonderful staff.

Thank you girls you keep them safe entertained and happy.

My son has been going to the old barn for 2 years now and I cannot recommend them enough. The children have daily activities that are carefully planned out for them and are centred around their learning and development. They regularly take trips to the park, forest school or to see the animals which
is the highlight of my son's week. The love, care and kindness the teachers show is irreplaceable and makes going to work so much easier. My son has developed the most amazing relationships with the teachers and I feel at ease knowing that he is loved and cared for so well when he is there. Two staff members in particular go above and beyond for the children whilst making all learning activities fun and exciting. The deputy manager gave me endless amounts of time and advice when I had difficulties with my son's speech/stutter which in turn has helped him progress and he no longer suffers with a stutter. A huge thank you to the old barn for making single working mum a little less tough!

My daughter has been with The Old Barn since 6 months old and moved over to pre-prep last year. I can't express enough how amazing the girls working there are. They treat the children like family, they're kind, caring, patient and always doing new fun things to keep my daughter entertained. The Forrest
school is one of my daughter's favourite things to do in the week, and she never stops talking about all the new things she's learned and all the fun she's had. She loves all of the teachers there (she tells me this daily) and has even named some of her favourite dolls and teddy's after them. I would be lost without your support. Thank you for everything you do!

My son has been at the Old Barn from the day nursery up to the Pre Prep.
He has grown in confidence and I have seen him bloom from quite a shy character to one who is engaged and thriving with a solid group of friends. The environment is structured but in a safe and supportive way.
He always eats
the food and enjoys it and especially loves football and gymnastics (even showed me his yoga pose yesterday)
The preprep are currently getting the children ready for school, talking to them about a typical day, focusing on writing and familiarity with letters and numbers. He has always felt safe, secure and confident at the Old Barn and any issues I’ve had have always been addressed in a timely and professional manner. I will be very sad to see him leave in September and will look back with fond memories.

If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 24 number of registered child places is 4.8, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Laura

Laura Malthouse

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2023

My name is Laura and I have over 10 years experience working in the Early Years sector. I have roles such as Designated Safeguarding Lead, SENCo and Fire Warden. I pride myself on creating stimulating, enabling environments which allow children to learn through their play and have the freedom to express themselves in a supported environment.


I aim to ensure that the setting is a warm, natural and a home from home environment so the children are comfortable to explore. I love the outdoors and feel that the children should always have the freedom to choose if they would like to be indoors or outdoors. I take pride in always putting the children at the centre of everything we do here at The Old Barn Day Nursery & Pre-Prep.

Amber Gower

Job Title: Deputy Manager Joined: 2013

My name is Amber and I have over 10 years experience working in the Early Years Sector. I pride myself in working closely with families to support the children with reaching their milestones across all ages at the setting. I keep myself up to date with all legislation and trends within the nursery sector and I imbed these across my whole team. I am a qualified Designated Safeguarding Lead for Surrey County Council and I use this training to ensure all children, families and staff are safe within the Old Barn Day Nursery and Pre Prep.


My main focus is to provide a calm, warm and homely environment where children and families feel comfortable and safe whilst they are with us. I am incredibly strong on parent partnerships and throughout the year I organise events to have the parents involved in their child's journey.
