Our daughter joined the nursery at the age of 2.5 mid-pandemic and had a hard time settling in. Due to me being pregnant and wanting to avoid contracting Covid or childhood illnesses, we kept our daughter home every time there was an infection notice from the nursery. This means that she didn't...
To sum up, despite our bumpy start, our overall experience with Silks Farm has been positive. We will miss all the lovely staff members and especially her key worker when our daughter leaves for her big school adventure.

My son started with Silks Farm Nursery School when he was 6 months old and he's now almost 2 years old. Even with us moving house, we kept him at the nursery simply because of how amazing the staff are. He loves attending nursery and the activities are brilliant. His development has come on leaps and bounds and the staff genuinely seem so pleased when he learns something new. Couldn't fault them!

Lovely, attentive staff who really got to know our daughter. She always came home happy and clearly had lots of fun. It was great how often the children accessed outside space. She also had lots of opportunities to do activities and learned counting and how to write her name.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Our friendly team work hard to build strong, supportive relationships with the children in their care. Providing a great variety of engaging activities is so important and allows children to develop important skills whilst having plenty of fun.
All the staff are super friendly and always greeted with a smile. They always chat when we collect our little boy and tell us what he has been doing and are very helpful when he first started and used to be screaming upon arrival, but they soon calmed him down.

The staff have been great at helping my daughter settle. I don't think she has been to the nature school yet, so I wish this was used more often. I also wish there were more practical life activities. Overall, I am glad I moved my daughter over to Silks Farm Nursery.

The nursery staff are fantastic and friendly, communicative and very reassuring. Our son always seems to come out smiling. The nursery is in a nice rural setting and has invested in the garden recently, which is great.

My daughter has sadly just finished up at Silks Farm. The little mice and field mice teams are amazing and took fantastic care of my daughter during her time spent here. I am so grateful for the regular updates and pictures of what she got up to when she attended nursery, as well as the lovely care...

Our son has just moved on to Primary School after four incredible years at Silks Farm. Handing your firstborn to someone else is a huge event, and after viewing several nurseries, we knew immediately that Silks Farm was the nursery for us. Such a rich environment, attention to detail, constant new activities and themes, games and songs and deep and a deep routed ethos that leaps out every time we drop off and pick up. His last day was incredibly moving as he has grown and developed so much, forming wonderful bonds with the staff along the way. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Silks Farm and can speak highly enough of the facilities and all the staff. Thank you, Silks Farm, so, so much for looking after him, and we are so pleased to enjoy a couple more years with you for his younger brother!

Both of our children attended Silks Farm Nursery School as babies until they were ready to start school. The staff were caring and loving and gave our children the most fantastic start. They particularly enjoyed the outdoor space. The planned activities were varied and fun and the preschool room prepared them well for school. Staff listened to any concerns or worries and we felt they genuinely cared. Thank you so much!

I couldn’t recommend the place more. They’ve been through so much with Covid and all the rules but never lost that personal feel with the kids.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review; it is very much appreciated and will be passed on to the nursery management team.
The nursery, on the whole, is good. Disappointed with the 10% increase in rates which was the second increase in less than a year. Wrote numerous emails to discuss, but not one was addressed. That is the first time I have had an issue with the nursery, along with when the food changed without...
The nursery, on the whole, is good. Disappointed with the 10% increase in rates which was the second increase in less than a year. Wrote numerous emails to discuss, but not one was addressed. That is the first time I have had an issue with the nursery, along with when the food changed without consultation. However, the staff are caring, and my son does enjoy his time there mainly. I do appreciate the calls telling me if he has fallen over etc, and the updates sent out.

I feel Silks Farm Nursery School is an excellent place for my child. I have sent both my children to Silks now. The staff are always excellent with my little one. They always come out with a great big smile, and I can tell that they've had a good day. My child has come along in leaps and bounds, and I feel a lot of that is due to the wonderful staff and excellent grounds the nursery has. Just exceptional all the way.

As with all settings in the current environment, there are times when queues and staffing have been an issue, but generally, the team work their socks off to make sure they are in a position to minimise as much disruption as possible. Personally, since there has been a change in management, the nursery has improved drastically, and the girls in the rabbit room are an asset to the team. Subsequently, our boy thoroughly loves the rabbit's room, his development has been impressive, and that's all credit to the team and the work they put in.

My 3-year-old daughter loves nursery, as did my son, both of whom were there from 13-months. I have been really impressed by how well my son has coped with school and finds many things easy "as we did that at nursery." They clearly get them well set up for school, and he made great friends there....
The outdoor space is fabulous, and that's why we chose Silks Farm. I have never regretted that decision. They are outside lots and let children be children, ie play in the mud, in the puddles etc.
