Both my children have and are still attending Silks Farm Nursery. They provide an excellent standard of care for all ages of pre and post school aged children. All of the staff are very sensitive to all of the children's individual personalities, needs and development and I feel 100% comfortable in leaving my children in their care. The top 10 things I love about this nursery are:
2) Food - the food is of a high standard cooked on site.
3) Outdoor space is amazing along with the small animals - brilliant!!
4) Each child's development plan and the way in which they work together with the parent.
5) Holiday club they provide for primary school aged children - brilliant that my now school aged child can attend and be looked after during the school holidays.
6) The fact that they are transferring to a semi electronic system to few each child's development and assessments.
7) Members of staff are all very friendly and can seen to be engaging with the children which I love to see.
8) Activities are fantastic from messy play to toddler yoga, football, french and the in between activities for celebratory days such as: Mothers/Fathers Day, invite a grandparent for tea day, different world celebrations, outdoor activities and simple things such as feeding and helping to look after the animals.
9) On site parking to collect and drop off your children.
10) Price structure
I'm sure there are many many more but overall excellent setting, excellent care and excellent facilities and activities.
Really lovely & friendly team, even carers who don't work with my son are always happy to see us and are very welcoming.
The staff member in the office has been our main point of contact and has been extremely kind and helpful, with nothing too much trouble.
Our key worker is really great at keeping us informed and ensuring our son is happy and the nursery in general seems very well run.
Our son seems very settled and happy so we couldn't ask for more.
My eldest daughter attended Silks Farm so when the time came for my youngest daughter to attend nursery there was going to be no better place. The settling in period is well thought out and catered to the individual child, the staff are all excellent and I feel completely happy dropping my daughter off with any member of the team. The variety of food my children experience is wonderful, and well the things they get up to during the day is fantastic, if only I could stay there for the day.
All in all a wonderful nursery, in a countryside setting with an amazing team of staff.
