Greenfields Nursery School has a Review Score of 8.7 (8.728) out of 10, based on 9 reviews in the last 2 years.
Over all time Greenfields Nursery School has 15 reviews.
She settled in quickly, and I feel comfortable dropping her off in the mornings as she is always full of smiles when she sees the staff. It's clear she has a wonderful time during the three days a week she attends, and as an (occasionally anxious) first-time mum, I really appreciate the regular updates via the app.
She began in the Baby Room and clearly adored the staff there. She has recently transitioned to the Movers room and has already settled in beautifully, toddling straight off to join everyone for breakfast on her very first morning there.
Overall, I'm really happy with our experience at Greenfields so far and am pleased to hear about the plans to develop the outdoor spaces, which in my view is the only area with room for improvement.
Thank you...
I don't know what exactly has happened, but so many of the wonderful staff seem to have lost some of their "spark" too.
This is not down to Greenfields as a nursery, but the overheads at Family First. Having been a parent of children here to the last 4 years, it's very sad to see the changes happening in real time.
Prices are rising, but extra curricular activities are being taken away and not replaced. A huge disappointment overall, I'm just very glad to still have the majority of the wonderful staff in the rooms themselves.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for being part of the Greenfields community over the past four years. We truly value your honesty and are sorry to hear that aspects of your recent experience have left you feeling disappointed.
We appreciate your kind words about our...
The level of love and care everyone puts into their work is evident to see. I have full confidence that my son is well looked after every time he is at green fields nursery
I put 4 stars for value for money as I think the government is to blame for the pricing not the nursery or staff
Our team works hard to create a warm, loving, and nurturing environment for every...
Excellent team, educatry and approachable. My child loves going to Greenfields and doesn't want to leave. Clear regular communication. Excellent sensory and outdoor space.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're really pleased to hear that your child enjoys coming to Greenfields so much and feels happy and settled here. Creating an engaging environment with strong communication and enriching sensory and outdoor experiences is very important to us, so it's wonderful to know this has made a positive impact.
My son goes to Greenfields 3 days a week. He started at 9 months old. From the very beginning, he has loved attending Greenfields. I have felt 100% confident that he is in safe and the most capable hands. All of the staff are extremely friendly, professional and communicate well with me as a parent. Brilliant experience.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that your son has loved attending Greenfields from such a young age and that you've felt completely confident in the care he receives. Providing a safe, nurturing environment and maintaining strong communication with parents is...
All of the staff at Greenfields have made my husband and I feel totally comfortable to leave them to care for our daughter. Everyone is very approachable and we have never felt as though there was a question we couldn't ask. The staff are knowledgeable and clearly very loving towards the children, it took my daughter only 4 weeks at Greenfields for her to no longer cry as I left her having previously been with me or her father exclusively.
Thank you so much for sharing this lovely feedback. We're so pleased to hear that you and your husband have felt comfortable and supported by the team at Greenfields. It's wonderful to know that our staff's approachability, knowledge, and care helped your daughter settle in so well, especially after such a big transition.
We have two children at Greenfields Nursery, our daughter in Preschool and our son in the Baby Room, and we have had a fantastic experience since they both started at around 7 months old. The Baby Room is such a warm and nurturing environment and we always feel safe and reassured leaving our son there while we work, as the carers are always smiley, happy and have a lovely bond with the children, with great communication every day. Our daughter has loved moving through all the different rooms and is now in Preschool as her final step before starting school in September, and she has grown so much in confidence and learning. She comes home excited about what she's done and really enjoys the wide range of activities such as French, science and yogabugs, and the carers are always welcoming and supportive. We would highly recommend Greenfields to any family looking for a caring and friendly nursery.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that both of your children have had such positive experiences at Greenfields Nursery. It's fantastic to know that our Baby Room provides a nurturing and reassuring environment, and that your son feels...
The staff are so friendly and cannot do enough to help you, and give you regular updates through the app and a debrief of the day during pick up. She has come on loads since being there and loves being around the other children and doing all the activity's.
I was nervous leaving her for the first time but the settling in days really helped ease into it and I feel more than comfortable leaving her in the nursery's care (and she loves it!)
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We're absolutely delighted to hear how well your daughter has settled into the baby room and how comfortable you feel with us. Our team work incredibly hard to create a caring, supportive environment, so it really means a lot to...
The time that my little boy had at Zippadees was great. He really enjoyed his time there. He enjoyed the the activities the learning and food and the staff. He will be returning for some of the school holidays.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We're thrilled to hear that your little boy had such a great time at nursery and that he enjoyed the activities, learning, food, and our team.
Greenfields Nursery has been a wonderful setting for our little boy and he has transitioned to school so well as a result of the confidence, care and support he had whilst at nursery. Our little girl has always been so happy at Greenfields too and runs through the door each morning. The lack of outside space for the baby room is a real shame and some of the equipment outside for the big room is looking tired. The variety of activities is great and it would be great to see them available all year round and not just term time, as we pay the same but the activities during the holidays drop off. Better communication about staff changes would be appreciated too (mainly if people leave!). We are so happy overall and the staff are wonderful.
Thank you for your review which is important to us and we appreciate your feedback, please do contact us so we can discuss concerns.
Our son loves attending Greenfields. He has a fantastic relationship with his key worker. There is plenty of stimulation and learning for him and we love receiving his observations sharing what he has been up to. The love and care the staff provide is very evident.
Thank you for your lovely review! We are delighted to hear that your son loves attending Greenfields! It's wonderful that he has a fantastic relationship with his key worker, and we're glad to provide plenty of stimulation and learning for him.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Greenfields Nursery to other parents.
Thank you for your lovely review! We are delighted to to hear about the outstanding care and attention provided by the staff at Greenfields Nursery, and the daily updates keeping you at ease.
After looking around the nursery and talking to the staff there was absolutely no doubt which nursery my child would attend. I have noticed such a positive difference in my child and the staff always encouraging them to do their best and helping in areas they struggle. I have recommended Greenfields to many of my friends who also agreed on how wonderful it is.
Thank you for your lovely review! It is wonderful to hear such a positive review about Greenfields Nursery! We are delighted to know that you have noticed a positive difference in your child's development.
Every member of staff is warm and welcoming and my son had great bonds with them all. He still talks about them now.
I do not believe there is another nursery out there quite like Greenfields.
Greenfields is such a wonderful, nurturing nursery with incredibly caring staff. Like most parents, we were really nervous about our 1-year-old starting nursery but it couldn't have been a happier experience for her. The baby room feels like a home-from-home, and the women who cared for our daughter are such warm, kind people who clearly adore children! Absolutely recommended.

Meet the Team (1)
I joined Greenfields Nursery, Shipston-on-Stour as Nursery Manager in July 2025 after transferring from Footsteps, Stratford-upon-Avon (another Family First Nursery). I had been working at Footsteps since January 2018, working my way up to Deputy Manager.
I first started working with children as a Primary school teacher in Australia in 1999, and moved into Early Years in 2018. I also have twenty-one years of experience in bringing up my own children.
My qualifications include a Primary Teaching qualification and a Master's degree (Level 7), which I obtained in Australia. I have many years of experience working with children in both primary school and nursery settings in both England and Australia.
My approach to childcare is very much positive and fun, where children can thrive in an environment which is caring and inclusive.
I love working in childcare as I enjoy interacting with children, families and colleagues; ensuring they all feel part of the Nursery Family. Nurturing children and inspiring both them and the Team to continue learning and improving is a privilege.
