The Old Barn Day Nursery (Baby Suite)

My daughter who is four loves going here. She speaks very happily about all the different activities she does with her friends. The staff also send regular updates on her progress through pictures and posts on their app, so I get emails almost every day showing me what they have been doing. I love that they spend a lot of time outdoors.

I would highly recommend The Old Barn Pre-Prep to friends and other parents, and we are so glad we joined here.

I just wanted to say thank you for making the arrangements for my daughter to return to Pre-Prep with such short notice. She was so excited to go and came out beaming yesterday, she had a wonderful first day back. A staff member saw us walking up the drive in the morning and came straight to the front door where she greeted my daughter with the warmest welcome! She looked just as excited to see my daughter as my daughter was to be there. Another staff member was equally as lovely on collection. The way they are with my daughter helped to cement my decision for her to return to Pre-Prep. I realise this isn’t just a strange time for the children but for the adults too so for them to make it all seem so normal didn’t go unnoticed and I was grateful today for that!

I'm am very happy with how much my child has progressed. Their speech has come along so far since moving up to the pre-prep. I like that the children are able to be independent and explore. I am also a big supporter of the staff taking the children out regularly. The staff do a great job and my child has made a good bond with them.

We are very happy with The Old Barn Pre-Prep. Our son has been at the nursery since he was one. Excellent care is provided and we would highly recommend it.

Wonderful place and wonderful staff!

My son has just moved to The Old Barn Pre-Prep and already we can see the difference. He is behaving better and listens more. He has learnt so much already and communicates a lot better thanks to the staff.

My daughter joined The Old Barn Pre-Prep in September 2019. We are welcomed by amazing staff members of lots of happy children. Previously my daughter had not attended nursery and this was overwhelming for us as a family however the transition from home to pre-prep was very smooth. My daughter loves coming to school and she has excelled in all aspects i.e. her confidence, communication, writing, learning in leaps and bounds. We can not recommend this place enough. The team are fantastic.

I pick up my niece regularly and see how happy she is at the Pre-Prep. She talks about all the activities she has done. The staff are always very welcoming and friendly, they are always doing something with the children and they all look happy. My sister and staff showed me the nursery, and I like the outside space as well as the outdoor classrooms.

My child has transitioned really well into Pre-Prep and the staff are a big part of this, as are the excellent facilities. Her flair for craft and drawing has very much been expressed and she has enjoyed being with old and new friends. She often comes home with a new fact or learning and I love the fact she has a homework task each weekend. I really do think The Old Barn Pre-Prep has been excellent for her overall development thus far.

I have always been very happy with The Old Barn Day Nursery and Pre-Prep. My son has been attending now for six months and he always loves his time here. The staff are friendly and welcoming, as well as very nurturing since moving to pre-prep. I have noticed how my son has progressed in his knowledge of numbers and his writing. The staff were also extremely helpful when my son was potty training and with their input, we managed it within a week with no stress at all.

The Old Barn nursery is an excellent nursery. My daughter always looks forward to going and her progress, confidence and her behaviour, in general, has improved massively. I'm so thankful to the staff, they are brilliant and as it's a smaller nursery, they have more one to one interaction with the children. It's a caring, safe environment and she has learnt a lot since going to The Old Barn Pre-Prep. Thank you.

This has been a lovely environment for my little boy to grow and develop. It is a very caring and nurturing place and all the staff are friendly and caring.

I moved my son to The Old Barn due to personal reasons and it was the best decision I have ever made. Every aspect of the nursery is simply outstanding, all the staff genuinely care about each child and their needs. The forest school, trips, meals are all above expectations and my son always wakes up ready to go and enjoys it every day. The staff and children are a credit to 'The Old Barn Brand.'

I am very happy with my son's progress at The Old Barn Pre-Prep. Thank you to all the staff.

I regularly come with mum to the Pre-Prep to collect a child and I am always blown away by all of the things the children are getting up to. The staff are always involved and the children look very happy. The little girl I come to collect always has pictures to bring home or has told me many things she has done like cooking and going out.

My daughter has been very settled here since she started. I always pick her up full of beans and very happy! She has so much fun. The staff are great and genuinely care about the children.

I have been really impressed with the amount of different activities organised at The Old Barn. My child always has something new to tell me about when I collect him. Leaving him here with the quality staff is easy even though I found it hard at first the girls really help everyone settle in great. My child can’t wait to get to nursery and that’s the best and most honest review of all! Thank you, everyone, at The Old Barn!

One of the aspects I like the most about the nursery is all the trips out the children do. I think taking them out often is so healthy and important for their development. Overall my husband and I are very happy with Old Barn.

My daughter started at The Old Barn Nursery when she was one and she now attends the pre-prep. She has always been happy there and the staff are very caring and attentive. The facilities are excellent, particularly the outside space, and there are always lots of activities on offer. The staff take a real pride in what they do and the kids are clearly fond of them. It offers an ideal childcare solution for working parents, as it's open throughout the holidays. I'd definitely recommend it for those looking for a nursery in Banstead!
