Overall Experience

I have a limited pool from which to judge, but it's hard to know what more I could ask for from a nursery. The team does an excellent job of maintaining a family feel, and a steady stream of activities, outdoor play and education for the children. I shall be sorry to say goodbye when it comes time for my child to head to school, but I'll do so knowing that Sandhills has given them an excellent foundation from which to build.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at Sandhills Day Nursery Barnt Green

We are delighted to read that your child has enjoyed such a positive experience at our nursery and that you value the family feel and range of activities and outdoor play provided. The team will be pleased to know that their support has helped give your child such a strong foundation as they prepare for school.

Overall Experience

This is an excellent nursery! Both of our children have attended from prior to one year old and the staff go above and beyond in caring for them. They get to know each individual child very well remarkably quickly and I feel very lucky for them to be looked after by such lovely people whilst we are out at work.

Morgan, the manager is fantastic at her job, communicates very quickly and efficiently and always tries to help us out whatever the need.

Of note the children get to go outside a lot which we appreciate in particular. It really seems like a home from home.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at Sandhills Day Nursery Barnt Green

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are delighted to read that both of your children have been happy with us and that you feel confident and supported while they are in our care. It means a great deal to know that our team's nurturing approach, strong relationships with the children, and outdoor experiences are so valued.

Overall Experience

I honestly can't praise the staff enough. After having to move my son at short notice, the nursery were absolutely amazing in helping him settle and making him feel so welcome.

The team are truly dedicated and child centred, you can see how much they care about every child. Management is fantastic too, with great communication and so much flexibility when it comes to additional days, early starts, and more.

My son has come on in leaps and bounds thanks to all the wonderful activities he does at "nursery's house." He absolutely loves attending, and I feel so reassured knowing he's safe, happy, and well looked after.

Thank you all so much for the incredible job you do every day.

Review from S T (Mother of Child) published on 17 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our little girl has been attending for two days a week since she was 12 months old (from June 2024) and we have had no issues at all. The staff have always been so friendly, approachable and welcoming. They really get to know the kiddies and understand what they need rather than trying to make them all fit the same mould. They helped us when our little one needs physio and there was no pressure to move classrooms when she hit a certain age, instead taking into account her confidence and ability. Our little one is always so happy there and now doesn't even want to leave when she gets picked up!

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at Sandhills Day Nursery Barnt Green

The team will be delighted to read how their hard work and dedication make a difference for your daughter. It is so important to embrace each child's individuality and uniqueness. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

The staff are always really friendly and welcoming. Always offer advice when asked any questions. My child is very happy at nursery and loves going there. It's nice that they take them into the garden when the weather is nice and they enjoy all the activities that they do. I am really happy that I chose this nursery for my child. Thank you to the team for all of your hard work!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending the nursery for nearly 18 months. She didn’t start until she was nearly 2 and although there were a lot of tears to begin with she has settled in very well and made lots of friends. It is a smaller nursery but feels homely and the staff are very kind and caring. I feel that her confidence has grown and she has become much more adventurous with her food. Thank you to the manager and all the team at Barnt Green for all your hard work! I would recommend the nursery to others.

Overall Experience
I find the staff at Sandhills in Barnt Green to be friendly, welcoming and often with lots of energy. I get the impression although the job must be hard, that all of the ladies really do care about the children.
I personally find everyone who I interact with to be personable and easygoing.

My daughter has become more sociable, confident and engaging which is largely down to the environment at Sandhills in Barnt Green. My daughter is 2, and I heard her count to 10 all on her own a few weeks back which I credit to the staff at Sandhills. Thank you for making my daughter look forward to going to Nursery.

Well, where do I start with Sandhills Barnt Green Nursery! My daughter moved nurseries and commenced her full-time place here in August last year. My daughter absolutely loves attending the nursery, she continues to strive in her development and it is wonderful with how many things she comes home with and tells us what she has been up to! The handovers are fantastic at collection time, as a parent you feel listened to and not rushed out the door! The staff are amazing and it’s wonderful that every time we drop and pick up they are all smiling! Thank you again for this fantastic nursery setting.

Reply from Joanne Wright, Chief Marketing Officer at Sandhills Day Nursery Barnt Green

Review from Tara B (Mother of Child) published on 7 December 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been attending Sandhills Day Nursery in Barnt Green since July and she has absolutely thrived.
She’s learned so much since starting here and has settled in so well. Every morning at drop off she runs through the door without looking back because she’s so excited to go in and spend the day there. Every member of staff is so happy to help and they all know your child, even if they aren’t in the same room. They look after my daughter like one of their own and are always happy to talk to you about your child’s development and any concerns.

I’m so happy I enrolled my daughter here - I couldn’t ask for a better nursery with better staff.

Review from M H (Mother of Child) published on 29 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending Sandhills Day Nursery Barnt Green for over a year now. From the beginning all the staff have made our family feel safe, welcome and well looked after. Since starting at the nursery, my son has developed really well and with the help of staff has always been looked after to a high standard. All staff are always helpful, I always get a full report of his day and can rest assured he is cared for. I am so pleased with how my son is cared for, fed and detailed reports of what he has been doing (which may I add is fun and educational as well as age appropriate). When looking for a nursery for my first born, it was really important to me that the nursery felt homely and warm. We are very pleased and our second son will be starting with the nursery at the end of the year. I was going to name key members of staff but each person that works at Sandhills Day Nursery Barnt Green have been amazing! Really lovely ladies!

Overall Experience

In general, the village Nursery is commendable. The majority of the staff demonstrate a genuine concern for the children and exhibit kindness, passion, and dedication. It is evident that there is a wide range of activities offered to the children each day. While there may be room for improvement with the outdoor playground equipment, the limited space is being utilized effectively. Furthermore, the Nursery takes advantage of nearby village facilities such as the park and train station, which is a positive aspect.
