The Old Station Nursery Barnt Green embraces a uniquely home from home feel. Situated in a converted house, the nursery provides 5 rooms and access to 3 outdoor spaces, giving children plenty of space and opportunity to learn and develop.
Its small size is what makes Barnt Green truly unique. The intimate setting allows each of the nursery teams to know all the children and families personally, giving the nursery a really welcoming, family feel; whilst the children are able to socialise with all age groups giving them the change to further develop their social skills and confidence.
Promoting healthy practices is at the core of the nursery, with children participating in activities which aid a healthy lifestyle, eating healthy meals and doing regular exercise. The nursery offers exceptional care, enriched by unique learning opportunities for your child. One such experience is child-friendly cooking classes, helping to equip children with valuable skills and deeper knowledge of the cooking process.
Outdoor learning plays a key role in the nursery and children will often be outside exploring all that the outdoor spaces have to offer, come rain or shine!

I can't speak highly enough of the staff. From onboarding process and all of the details around costings through to the first few actual days with our daughter in nursery and the way they have kept in constant communication, we couldn't have asked for more.
An amazing nursery! The staff make sure both parents and children feel safe and comfortable from day one. The facilities are always clean, hygienic, and welcoming. I leave my child here with complete peace of mind."

Staff are really kind, informative throughout the day and at pick up and my little one settled in quickly.
I'm glad I went with Sandhills in Barnt Green.

She's really grown in confidence, not only in herself and her personality and communication, but also in skills, eating has come on, her own interests outside of nursery have also blossomed.
We credit a lot of her growth to the nursery as the staff in the baby room are so attentive, Vicky and the team always have great feedback after each day, and are clearly going above and beyond for our little girl.

We have had an excellent experience with our child at Old Station, Barnt Green Nursery. Staff are attentive, supportive, friendly and positive. The nursery itself is clean, structured and full of appropriate play areas with a range of activities everyday. The use of the nursery app allows us to check our child's progress through the day easily and pictures of them participating in exciting activities is lovely.

I moved my 2 year old in April from a different nursery where he had had a very difficult time and did not settle. The staff at Barnt Green were simply excellent, instantaneously and instinctively providing a warm, fun, compassionate environment. The key difference being the experienced staff in place, that work very well together in the interests of the children. My boy has thrived in this setting and I could not recommend it highly enough.
The nursery manager is very approachable and always happy to answer and sort out any questions I have.

The nursery manager is very approachable and always happy to answer and sort out any questions I have.
The staff are amazing and know all the children really well- it doesn't matter who you meet on drop off or pick up, they know who you are and are always so happy to see your child.
The facilities are great and we get lovely updates of activities they are doing with the children. They also make use of the outdoor space they have, and make sure the children have lots of variety in their day.
I never worry dropping my daughter off and always look forward to her nursery days!
Would recommend to any parent in the area! The staff have been amazing with my little boy and settling in couldn't have gone any better he loves nursery and I love seeing all the activities he gets upto.

The Old Station Nursery Barnt Green is a beautiful and nurturing environment. All the staff are professional, caring and friendly and there are several very experienced, long standing staff members. The staff clearly know the children well and go to extra effort to be inclusive and caring. They provide excellent and imaginative educational activities and resources. Often these are shaped around the children's interests and backgorunds. We are very happy with our experience here.

The team at Barnt Green Sandhills Nursery are wonderfully positive. I am delighted with the way they have looked after our two children and have no improvements to offer. They are caring and engaged and always have time to explain in detail what the children have been up to all day. They are superb with names and in accommodating parents working schedules. I would like to thank Morgan, Ashleigh, Vicky, Courtney, Stacey, Harriet, Libby, Amanda, Rosie, Becky, and I'm sure even more team members that I have not been able to mention in person. You do a brilliant job!

The staff are so kind and friendly and genuinely care for the children, really take their time to get to know them on a personal level, my daughter actually calls them her favourite people at nursery!
Every week is a different theme, everyday doing numerous activities, making things, baking, painting etc so they have very busy days but educational and fun!
Food is always different and must be tasty as my daughter usually eats it all (and she's a picky eater). Facilities are fantastic, lovely garden, plenty of toys and equipment. Overall a very safe and secure environment, great communication during handovers and via nursery app so kept in the loop all day. Couldn't be happier with it and looking forward to sending my second child there!
The team do a great job caring for our son. He loves going to nursery and we don't have any concerns. He has had a couple of dietary issues and the team have made a plan and supported his circumstances. Thank you for all your hard work.

We are delighted to read that your son is happy at our nursery and that you feel reassured by the care he receives. It's lovely to know that the team's support with his dietary needs has made such a positive difference.
My son loves to go to nursery thanks to the amazing staff that help him throughout the day. The staff have helped him be more confident and explore with his learning. I would definitely recommend this nursery to others.

We are delighted to read how much your son enjoys coming to our nursery and the confidence he is gaining. It's lovely to know that our team's support is helping him explore and develop so well.
I have a limited pool from which to judge, but it's hard to know what more I could ask for from a nursery.

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.
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.

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.
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.
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.

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!
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.
