I simply cannot recommend Street Farm enough, I never thought I'd find somewhere where I'd be so comfortable leaving my son without being with family but he is thriving there and enjoying every minute. My son took a while to settle initially (just due to me leaving him) but all the staff made such an
effort to make him feel comfortable and happy, they were so accommodating in a routine which worked around him and now he talks about nursery at home and is excited to attend! The staff make a real effort with special occasions like Christmas and Mothers Day, they create crafts to send home with the children and my son is always proud to bring them home and what special keepsakes they are! Simply 5 star all round.
Reply from Zoe Savage, Manager at Street Farm Day NurseryThank you for your lovely review, he has settled so well, he is a joy to look after.

I have been very happy with the care my child gets at Street Farm. The team are brilliant and I feel like my son is in safe hands when I drop him off. He clearly enjoys his time there and I think he benefits from exposure to a wide range of activities/crafts, many of which I wouldn't do regularly with
him at home. I'm also very impressed with how well we are kept updated on the days events at nursery, both verbally from the staff members at pickup and via daily updates in the app.
Reply from Zoe Savage, Manager at Street Farm Day NurseryThank you for your lovely review. So glad to hear you get a great handover from the staff.

I have a child in Street Farm and my eldest also attended. My eldest thrived so much here and still talks about her time in Farmyard Friends. My youngest loves attending and has a real bond with so many of the staff. Staff are always so helpful and friendly, offering a warm family atmosphere whilst
still remaining very professional.
Would recommend Street Farm to everyone!

My daughter is in the Little Ducklings set and really loves it here. Her previous nursery she used to scream at the door and refuse to go in.
Here at Street Farm she happily walks in to Haydes every week.
The staff here are so kind and caring towards not only the children but to the parents and
the other staff.
Your staff are a credit to the nursery.
Thank you.

Wonderful nursery! My son has been attending Streetfarm for quite some time and is always beaming and excited to tell us all about the great things that he has been up to.
As parents, we love that the nursery offer things such as share sessions where we can come Into the nursery and see our son interacting
with the other children.
All of the cards and presents etc that he makes on special occasions such as Christmas, Mother's Day etc are always so lovely and it seems like a lot of thought has been put into planning them from the nursery team.

My son has not been eating well recently and the nursery have been great supporting him. With shopping trips for healthy snacks, involving him in food prep and deciding on meals.
And have supported me with links and dietary information to help my son.

Our little boy has been going to Street Farm for the last 2 years and has thrived. He was nervous at first but his key workers in both the baby room & the next room on have been incredible. He is so settled there and I never have any concerns about him being there! They really are superstars!

My son is very happy at Street Farm Day Nursery and that's the most important thing to me. Staff seem to know him well and he chats away to them, even though he can feel very shy with others - it's so lovely to see when I pick him up. I feel he can be himself there and it's setting him up really well
for the future. He's made good friends, eats well and is being well supported with toilet training too. On days where he's reluctant, staff make an effort to help settle him, find things he'll enjoy and give him time to feel OK - it's very reassuring for me. I don't hear about all the activities within the group and my son can be reluctant to join them, but the staff are really creative in what they set up. I like that they're trying to find activities for a few trips out of the nursery as that's a fun adventure for the children - we'd love more of this and/or forest school to return. Thank you so much to everyone that works there - we appreciate you and your kind hearts so much.
Reply from Zoe Savage, Manager at Street Farm Day NurseryThank you for much for your lovely comments, there will be more trips coming, so glad we get to offer this.

Such a lovely nursery, all the staff are always so happy and welcoming. My little girl had trouble settling in at first as she hadnt been away from me much but the staff helped so much coming up with different ideas which meant she soon settled in and she now asks most mornings if she can go to nursery.
They hold little events where your invited to come play in the nursery which my daughter and i really enjoy. Everyone always has time to talk to you and discuss concerns and keep you updated.
In the early days i was very nervous but they where great at phoning me if my daughter needed me so i fully trust them to make the right decision on my daughter's happiness

We love it at street farm. My son has been attending since he was 9 months old. His transitions to each room has been easy and he's always enjoyed each room. Helping to challenge his development needs.
He's made friends and is so happy to go in.
He's built great relationships with his key workers
which is lovely to see.
On an admin level the management team are always great at answering queries and helping me understand funding hours.

We're really happy with Street Farm. It's our second child here, our daughter attended previously and is now at school, so we didn't hesitate to send our son too. He joined at just 9 months old and has been so well cared for. The staff are warm, nurturing and kind. It's such a reassuring feeling knowing
he's happy.

This nursery has been amazing as a whole for caring for both my children. They have been so accommodating for my special needs son. Zoe and Hayley have worked so hard to get him the extra SEN funding for him and helping organise an EHCP. Also a special mention to Tia in baby bunnies who my daughter
adores. Tia took the best care of her before she moved to little duckings and often talks about Tia at home

My little boy started at baby bunnies is September 2025, the team made the introductory sessions easy and very welcoming. He's settled in brilliantly and is always happy at handover in the mornings. The staff are warm and caring and always make him feel safe and happy. His key worker, Erin has been
especially wonderful, supportive, attentive and tuned into his needs. The nursery is clean, engaging and full of activities which he loves. We've seen great progress with his social and confidence skills.

My daughter has been attending Street Farm since September, first in Baby Bunnies and now in Little Ducklings. Her settling in sessions and transition to her new room were fantastic and she has settled in to the new room so well. She is so confident and loves her days at nursery. The staff are all very
welcoming and really care about the children, providing good updates and remembering key details. They have a great range of activities and a lovely garden area and also include extra curricular activities like football, which she loves. We are really grateful to all of the staff members for looking after our daughter so well.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.813)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.813) out of 10 for Street Farm Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.813 for Street Farm Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (323 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 395 Ratings = 4.813
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Street Farm Day Nursery is based on 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 33 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.
