Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has been attending Ambourne house since 2023 and he absolutely adores it. The staff are super friendly and the care they give the children and families is above and beyond.
The FAMLY app is a great way to communicate with staff, keep up to date with fees, news, events, your child's learning
as well as their daily care needs e.g nappy changes/toileting, meals and how much they eat plus your child's learning observations. The extra curricular activities and real life experiences are a great touch, such as wood work, sports, music and dance activities, plus they have their very own mini bus to take children out on trips an local walks! I cannot fault this nursery, it's like a home from home. The setting is a converted home setting, it may be cosy and petite but the love and care inside it is huge!!
I will highly recommend Ambourne House to anyone who is looking for a loving childcare setting for their little one!
Ambourne house has helped my child develop so much!
Reply from Roberta Ferri, Manager at Ambourne House Day NurseryThank you so much for taking the time to leave such an amazing review. We are absolutely delighted to hear how much your little one enjoys attending Ambourne House and how supported your family feels by our team.
It means the world to us to know that what we offer have made such a positive impact. Creating a true home-from-home environment is at the heart of everything we do, so your kind words about the love and care within our setting really do mean so much.
Thank you also for recommending Ambourne House and for trusting us.

Ambourne House Nursery has been absolutely amazing for my daughter. Since she started, I've seen such a positive change in her confidence, learning, and overall happiness. She's always excited to go to nursery and never wants to miss a day, which says so much.
The staff are caring, supportive, and
genuinely invested in the children's development. I feel reassured knowing she's in such a nurturing and stimulating environment. I couldn't be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Ambourne House Nursery to any parent.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We've been really pleasantly surprised and impressed with the exceptionally nurturing and professional approach we've experienced since our little one started at Ambourne House a few months ago. As first time parents we were quite apprehensive about starting at nursery but all the staff made the transition
incredibly smooth and easy and our daughter settled in really quickly.


The baby room staff are wonderful and incredibly warm and attentive. The regular updates and visible progress they share gives us peace of mind that she feels safe and happy there. The Montessori-inspired environment and activities they do, whether inside, in their lovely garden or out and about, all seem well thought-out to support her development in the best way, which is wonderful to see and she clearly has a great time.

Reply from Roberta Ferri, Manager at Ambourne House Day NurseryDear Sasha,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a lovely and detailed review. We're truly delighted to hear that your experience at Ambourne House has been so positive, especially during those early months. We completely understand how daunting starting nursery can feel, and it means a great deal to know that our team helped make the transition smooth and reassuring for you and your little one.
Our baby room staff will be so pleased to hear your kind words.
We're also glad that the regular updates and shared milestones have given you peace of mind, and that you've been able to see how safe, happy, and engaged she is.
Kind Regards

Review from Veena A (Mother of Child) published on 20 January 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When our daughter joined Ambourne House as a 13 month old in the baby room, she was very much attached to me almost clingy, she wont go to anyone other than her parents, she would scream at the sight of a big crowd. She was settled in very quickly and peacefully, Tina, Flora, Roxie, made sure of that.
She became very independent, joyful and confident child. It's been 7 months now and she is in toddler room, every day she learns something new and her development is conspicuous. As parents, we can't recommend Ambourne House enough. I thank all of the staffs in the Nursery for taking good care of her.
Reply from Roberta Ferri, Manager at Ambourne House Day NurseryHi Veena,
thank you so much for taking the time to share such a lovely review. We are very happy to hear how smoothly your little one settled into Ambourne House and how much she has grown in confidence and independence during her time with us. I will make sure to share your kind words with the staff in the baby room. Thank you for trusting us with your daughter's care and for your recommendation.

Choosing a nursery can feel overwhelming, but from the moment I walked into Ambourne, I knew it was the right place. The atmosphere is calm, professional, and engaging. Both of my children began their journey here at 6 months old and stayed until they started primary school. My youngest only left last
week, and we were genuinely sad to say goodbye. The care, support, and love shown to both of my children have been exceptional. Roberta and Sarah are outstanding managers, and I would recommend Ambourne without hesitation.
Reply from Roberta Ferri, Manager at Ambourne House Day NurseryThank you so much for your wonderful feedback.

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about our experience at Ambourne House!


We moved our son there a year ago from another local nursery, and I only wish we'd done so from the start. Our son looks forward to going every day, and is always full of smiles in the morning. The staff are incredibly

professional, caring, and inclusive. He adores all the members of staff - but has a special soft spot for one member of staff in particular, who he proudly calls his best friend! The team's warmth and positivity have helped him grow so much in confidence.


The manager, is clearly highly competent, trustworthy, and always positive and has created a well-organised and welcoming environment at Ambourne House.


We're so grateful for all the care and the support they've given our son and would wholeheartedly recommend Ambourne House to any parent.

Reply from Roberta Ferri, Manager at Ambourne House Day Nurserythank you so much for your amazing feedback.

It has been a pleasure looking after your little one and we wish you all the best for his new adventure at school. Thank you again Kind Regards

Our son attended Ambourne Day Nursery for almost two years, and we couldn't be happier with the care and support he received during his time there. From the very beginning, the staff were incredibly attentive, and nurturing, creating a safe and stimulating environment that helped our son grow in confidence
and independence.


The team at Ambourne clearly care deeply about the children in their care. They took the time to understand our son's personality, interests, and needs, and kept us well-informed with regular updates on his development and daily activities.


We also appreciated the variety of activities offered-from creative arts and sensory play to outdoor adventures and early learning opportunities. It's been wonderful to see how much our son has learned and developed during his time there.


We're truly grateful to everyone at Ambourne for making our son's early years.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My little one has been attending this nursery since January. As a first time parent I was extremely nervous and probably a little overbearing to begin with. The baby room team have been nothing short of amazing. My little girl absolutely loves going to nursery and they have worked with her and me to
settle in. They hold events for the parents and we recently attended a Mother's Day afternoon which was a perfect little afternoon.
The only thing that lets this place down is it does not have a separate sleeping space, half of the baby room is closed off with a room divider. It would be better for all the children if there were a separate sleeping areas with cots etc as my little one is currently sleeping in a travel cot and her naps are rubbish in nursery due to the disturbance coming from other side of the room divider. I viewed 10 different nurseries and this one was far better than the rest in terms of what they offer.
Reply from Roberta Ferri, Manager at Ambourne House Day NurseryThank you so much for your review, it is a pleasure to look after your little one and i will make sure to pass the message to the baby room team.Thank you for your feedback regarding the lack of a separate sleeping room.

My child has been attending Ambourne House Nursery since May 2024. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parents looking for an inclusive, safe nursery with a real sense of community. My child has grown in confidence and knowledge and going to nursery has done wonders for her social development.
The team know our family so well and support our child in line with our core values. The opportunities provided through trips and activities with external providers, including weekly forest school are outstanding. What I love most about this nursery is their outside space and the fact that they are not weather adverse so the children play outside all year round.

I have had a really good experience with Ambourne House. He absolutely loves it, along with the people who work there - who show great love and care in watching him grow and building great relationships! He has so much fun there, where I can see through updates shown on the app - which is great. He
speaks about his friends, what he's done and the workers with great attitude. I can really see what my son is being taught and shown as he will do new things at home and his communication/speech is widening! I will always recommend Ambourne to friends and family!

Both our children love Ambourne House. The staff encourage the kids to be independent and confident and teach them useful skills. The gardens are a real highlight, they both love playing with all the toys out there. They offer term time only places which is a real bonus for us and will sometimes take
the kids on trips! They aren't a chain which means the staff have a real family feel where they all work together to offer a fun and friendly experience.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.945)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.945) out of 10 for Ambourne House Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.945 for Ambourne House Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (261 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.945
  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 Ambourne House Day Nursery is based on 23 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 65 number of registered child places is 13, which has been reached with 23 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.

Roberta Ferri

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2019

Hello! I’m Roberta, and I joined the Ambourne House team in September 2019.


As the Nursery Manager and Designated Safeguarding Lead, I am dedicated to ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for all the children in our care.


I moved to the UK in 2011 after earning a BSc (Hons) Degree in Education. My journey began in London, where I worked as a nanny for a bilingual family. Later, I moved to Bristol and started working in a nursery preschool, where I developed a deep understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).


I have always had a passion for education, and I love to keep learning. To further enhance my skills, I studied the Montessori approach, which beautifully aligns with the national curriculum.


One of the things I love most about my role is spending time in every room of the nursery, building bonds with children of all ages through play and connection. It’s truly rewarding to see their confidence and curiosity grow each day!

Hello! I’m Sarah, and I joined Ambourne House at the beginning of January 2020.


I’ve been working in childcare for over 20 years, and I truly love what I do. Throughout my career, I’ve had the pleasure of taking on roles as both a Room Leader and Deputy Manager, gaining valuable experience along the way.


Outside of work, I love spending time with my 20-year-old daughter. Family time is really important to me!


I’m passionate about creating a warm and nurturing environment for children, and I’m always here to support both families and colleagues at Ambourne House.
