Our 2 year old has been at Silks since she was 9 months old. She loves going here. The staff are friendly and approachable and seem like they genuinely care about my child. The activities are varied and she is often playing outside. Learning through play is great. Food menu varies every week on a cycle and my child eats a range of different things. Staff are helpful and we are kept well informed about her activities and progress.
Thank you so much for your review of Silks Farm. We're delighted to hear your daughter loves coming to nursery and has been so happy with us. It's wonderful to know you value the care from our team, the varied activities and outdoor play, as well as the updates on her progress.

My child has been coming here since 9 months old so has been in all rooms. All rooms have brought out the best in him and he loves coming to nursery. His favourite thing at the moment is playing outside with all their new equipment and areas to play in. The food menu they provide is amazing. The activities the children get up too are also great, children are learning and developing without even knowing. All staff are very friendly and easy to talk to about things when needed. Very happy with my choice of nursery, will be sad the day he leaves for big boy school!
Thank you for your feedback of Silks Farm Day Nursery and Preschool. We're delighted to hear that your child is happy and thriving with us since joining at 9 months old, and that he enjoys coming into nursery each day. We're also pleased that you find our team friendly, approachable, and easy to talk to. We are so glad you chose our nursery.
Our three boys all went in from 9-12 months old and they all love it, they are now 2 and nearly 4. They have a great relationship with the staff and have a great time there playing with all their friends.

I cannot rave about Silks Farm enough; we decided on Silks for our son because of the glowing reviews we'd been told by friends who had sent their children there so knew we were in safe hands but since sending our LO there, we could not be happier with how he's getting on and being cared...
I cannot rave about Silks Farm enough; we decided on Silks for our son because of the glowing reviews we'd been told by friends who had sent their children there so knew we were in safe hands but since sending our LO there, we could not be happier with how he's getting on and being cared for.
The first few settles and weeks were a little tricky, as to be expected from sending a LO below one year to be with people he doesn't know for eight hours a day, two days a week, not to mention all of the illnesses flying about - again, to be expected. However, the Robin's team put us totally at ease with our LO's health and wellbeing at the forefront of everything they did and the decisions they made.
Over a month on, our son now LOVES going to nursery and has come on leaps & bounds, growing in confidence week on week. To be stopped by one of the team at pick up, to be told how proud I should be of him and how well he's getting on - I was truly touched.

Everything is great about the care given to the children, the activities, food, outdoor space and play opportunities. The staff are lovely and attentive and my little one is always excited and keen to start the day there. The only complaint I have is that you no longer offer half day or shorter day options. Obviously, for working parents who may be on slightly non standard schedules, this can make things very expensive and result in paying for a lot of unused hours. A bit more flexibility in this regard would be so helpful to many parents. Thanks for doing a great job and providing a lovely setting for our babies!

My child has been attending Silks Farm since she was 16 months old and is now 2, and we couldn't be happier with our experience.

The team are always approachable, supportive, and efficient when answering any queries, and they genuinely go above and beyond to help wherever they can. I really appreciate the attention to detail they give to my child's development. The children are always happy, smiling, and welcoming at pick-up, which speaks volumes about the atmosphere. I also love how much time they spend outdoors and the variety of meals they provide. Overall, Silks Farm has a truly amazing, nurturing environment, and I would highly recommend it.

Our daughter started at Silks Farm just over a year ago when she was 6 months old, and has thrived ever since, thanks to the amazing staff who work so hard to support her. She is such a happy and confident little girl, and her key workers have all been so patient and kind as she has grown and developed from a baby to a toddler! We love how spacious the nursery is, how many activities the kids have available to them, the relaxed yet professional attitude of the management and staff. They are continuously improving the environment for the kids, have a great outdoor space, and the forest school is such an asset. We would highly recommend the nursery to any new parents looking for a warm and inviting setting for their baby or young child, that is also exceptionally good value for money in the area. Oh and the meals they have on offer are fantastic - really diverse and nutritious - and have hugely helped our daughter to become a real foodie!

Great nursery. We relocated to the local area and our son was welcomed by everyone very warmly. Made the transition as a 3 year old, very smoothly. He gets to be outside a lot, has learnt a lot and we get updated on his progress every day. Only this morning at breakfast did he say (unprompted) ‘I...
