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
Reply from Zoe Savage, Manager at Street Farm Day NurseryThanks so much for your lovely review. We all love having them both here and love watching them both develop.

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.
Reply from Zoe Savage, Manager at Street Farm Day NurseryThank you for your lovely review and too hear who well you feel she has settled as well. They all love the football sessions we have introduced with Kicks and Tricks.

The contact we have in the room and office we can't fault, our child has grown in confidence in going to nursery without us because of them. The standard of food and variety of food offered is where the nursery lacks
Reply from Zoe Savage, Manager at Street Farm Day NurseryThanks so much for your lovely review in regards to staff. Nutrition is where we have worked hard to accommodate the new guidance for under 5s, and being able to offer the children a varied and healthy diet. However, all reviews are well received and we will look at our menu for the Summer. Zoe

Our boy has been with the nursery for a while now and at first was quite nervous being first time parents dropping him off. But he absolutely loves it there, the staff make him feel very welcome. They are all very good at their job and feel like they are always in safe hands. I couldn't recommend the
nursery enough.

Genuinely delightful Nursary. The staff are so friendly, kind and welcoming. They truly care about the children and remember all key details about them. They really go that extra mile without being asked or assumed. All of the staff are a joy to interact with.
We love the photo updates and timeline
information about that they get up to. We love the attention to detail with the care received also.
Our child has been there since the age of 6 months which was daunting but they settled in incredibly quickly and established great relationships with the staff.
Would highly recommend this Nursary for that extra special care that is given.

My son attends Street Farm three times a week.
He loves going in and is always super happy when I collect him, usually showing me everything he's been up to.
The staff are all super friendly and genuinely care for the children.
They have worked hard on my son's fussiness with food and he has become
a much more confident eater since being there.
Any queries I have, Zoe and other management quickly respond.
The nursery has a lovely large garden too which is a must for children who love to explore.

They have been great at welcoming Billy into the nursery and helping him settle.
We can see big improvements within himself and his development.

I've got two children, both at Street Farm, and they absolutely love it. Both settled in brilliantly, the staff were fantastic and made sure to settle the girls and cater to any specific needs or wishes. So good with the first that we booked a place for our second daughter while we were still in the
pregnancy stages!
I would absolutely recommend the nursery, incredibly lucky to have such fantastic facilities and staff in our village.

My son has been attending Street Farm since he was 14 months old. He is now 3 and a half and thriving at nursery. The staff all know the children well, they are well looked after and participate in enriching activities, food is good and most importantly my son enjoys going. The nursery communicates
with parents well through the app where we get regular photographs and written updates.

My son started in the baby bunnies room a few months ago at 11 months old. I found the settling in system fantastic. Loved the fact he got so much time to get used to the environment before starting and that I got to be with him to start with too. My son is absolutely thriving. He virtually leaps into
the arms of the lovely ladies in his room when we arrive and he is always content playing when we arrive. I feel safe in the knowledge that he's happy and well cared for while I'm at work.

My daughter has attended Street Farm since she was 9 months old and she loved every day of going, she never once didn't want to go.
The staff were always friendly and welcoming and my daughter counted her carer as her friend which was comforting to us as parents.
If your child is happy and loving
nursery it says everything about the environment there.

My child has been attending Street Farm Nursery since summer 2024. He settled relatively quickly and has thoroughly enjoyed his nursery days ever since. Staff are incredibly caring and I'm confident that he's in a positive environment that supports his development, encourages a variety of play and learning,
and interaction with older and younger children. I plan to keep my son here until he moves onto school and happily recommend Street Farm to all my friends. It can be a stressful time going back to work and having your child being cared for by people outside of your direct circle, but I'm so pleased with my decision and content that son is very well cared for.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.771)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.771) 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.771 for Street Farm Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (187 Excellents x 5) + (51 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 4.771
  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 20 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 20 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.
