Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We first looked around Park Farm in Autumn 2021 for our eldest and were hooked by 3 things that still resonate with us on a daily basis today; the amount of outside space, the approach of "there's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes" and the very happy children, something
that definitely can't be staged for a visit!


Both our kids settled in really quickly due to the friendly and accommodating staff who were always on hand for a cuddle when needed! They developed well through the fun and engaging activities alongside social learning during play time.


Our kids loved caring for the numerous pets kept at Park Farm, a great way for them to get used to interacting with animals from a young age. Walks to visit the neighbouring cows and sheep have also been a highlight!


Overall our experience for both children (1 now at school, 1 at Park Farm in Toddlers) has been amazing and we can't recommend Park Farm highly enough.

Our experience at Park Farm has been nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we enrolled our now two-year-old, we have witnessed an incredible transformation in him. His confidence has soared, and his verbal skills have blossomed in ways we never could have imagined.


The staff at Park Farm are

truly amazing. They create a warm, nurturing environment that makes our little one feel safe and encouraged to express himself. His ability to communicate has noticeably improved thanks to their dedicated approach.


One of the standout features of this nursery is the abundance of extra activities available for the children. The outdoor space is phenomenal! Our son loves exploring the large play area, where he can run, climb, and interact with nature. The presence of animals adds an extra layer of excitement!


We couldn't be happier with our choice and highly recommend Park Farm Day Nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing and enriching environment. Thank you for all that you do!

My son attended this nursery a few months after it opened as Park Farm about 5 years ago. He loved it so much, it was a given that we would send our daughter there too. There have been lots of changes but only for the better. Staff have always been fantastic and build a really good relationship with
the kids. My daughter is excited to go to nursery which I think says a lot.
The outdoor space is vast and gives the setting an advantage over more inner city/village nurseries. Lots of time spent outside in a range of different areas so it keeps the children engaged and entertained.
Overall, I wouldn't send my kids anywhere else. It is a fantastic place !

Park farm nursery has been amazing! My daughter started when she was only 9 months and had never left me, they made the whole process so easy. From the settling in days where I went with her to her first day alone! They update you on everything via the app and send photos throughout the day of daily
activities to put your mind at ease. They have been painting autumn leaves in October and we got our first ever pictures to hang on the fridge! All the staff are lovely and friendly and can't do enough for you. The nursery manager has been really helpful and always replies to messages straight away. The nursery have dressing up for Halloween all week at the end of October which is super cute. Lots of variety in meals which I love. Just an overall great nursery!

Park Farm is a fantastic nursery setting, with wonderful staff who are patient, attentive and caring. Everyone is friendly and always willing to help. Our daughter started at 7months old and from day one we have always felt confident that she was in safe hands. All of the staff in the baby room have
always gone above and beyond to make sure that she has had the best day and have played such key parts in her development.

My daughter first started at the nursery in September just over 9 months old. Very nervous as a first time mum leaving your baby with new faces. The team there constantly updated me and continue to update me on her day, send me pictures and were so reassuring. She now absolutely loves going to nursery
and puts her arms out to the staff when we get there in a morning. I love that they babies aren't just stuck in side they have a mix of indoor and outdoor activities, messy time etc. So happy that I had chosen this nursery for my daughter to join as me and my fiancé work full time, such an amazing team they have at Park Farm!

We couldn't be happier with our experience at this nursery. One of the standout features is the amazing outdoor spaces - my daughter absolutely loves them! Every day feels varied and exciting, with a wonderful mix of messy play, creative activities, and thoughtful learning opportunities.


What's really

special is how she's formed relationships with all the staff. It's clear that everyone is genuinely invested in the children's care and development - you never feel like your child is just another number.


The use of family groups gives the nursery a smaller, more intimate feel, which has been so reassuring. It creates a calm, nurturing atmosphere where children can really thrive. It never feels overrun or chaotic - everything feels calm, well-managed, and carefully considered.


We're so grateful to have found such a caring and inspiring place for our daughter!

My daughter has attended Park Farm since January and has recently moved from the baby room, through tiny toddlers, into the toddler room. All the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive and are helping my daughters confidence grow so much.
The updates on the app are great. The food prepared by
the cook is always amazing and caters for allergens really well.
Lots of outside time was important to us when finding a nursery and Park Farm is the perfect location.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the very beginning, the team at Park Farm Nursery has been incredible-kind, considerate, and genuinely caring. As parents, leaving our children in someone else's care isn't easy, but knowing they're in such safe, nurturing hands has made all the difference. Both of our kids have settled in wonderfully,
and our little boy even wakes up on weekends asking if it's a nursery day-such a testament to how happy he is there.


What stands out most is the strong relationships they've formed with their key workers. Every staff member takes the time to understand each child, their personality, likes, and dislikes. The activities are thoughtfully planned, outdoor play is fantastic, and each day is filled with learning and fun.


The care and dedication from the team are outstanding. Choosing Park Farm was an easy decision, and we've never looked back. We can't thank the team enough for everything they do for our children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Park Farm is set in a beautiful location in a lovely set of buildings that includes multiple covered and uncovered outside areas, art rooms, dining rooms and play rooms including soft play.


The staff are excellent, they are compassionate, caring and treat each child as an individual. Because of this

my child has thrived, getting the support they need, and it's been a pleasure to watch them grow in confidence. Activities are varied, and educational including farm and nature walks.My child lives loves going to nursery and loves all the staff, even the cook! The staff always make you feel valued and take the time to get to know you too, and really make you feel like part of a community. I love putting my child somewhere I can trust.


The food is always excellent and nothing is ever too much for the management team. They are easy to speak to and can make accomodations last minute, and they go above and beyond for our family.


I love Park Farm, and recommended to everyone!

I defy anyone to knock Park Farm Nursery. The site is situated alongside a working farm, giving the kids a front row seat to nature. The staff are all brilliant, polite and welcoming, and they provide regular updates throughout the day, which is a great comfort.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My biggest anxiety going back to work was finding the right care and environment for our little one.
After visiting a few other settings local to us, & still having more to attend, we weren't expecting to put down a deposit so soon but when we visited Park Farm, that all changed.


We received such

a positive first impression we booked our space 10 months ahead of our little one planning to attend and it was the best decision we've ever made regarding his daily care.


Park Farm and their staff have continued to exceed our expectations, our child is provided with excellent care in all capacities. We love that he spends so much time outdoors, the farm and animal setting & just how peaceful the location feels. Seeing how much the staff care is very reassuring along with how involved we feel as parents with regular updates.


Our little one is thriving and the team have been a fantastic support with his development this last 12 months. Genuinely don't know what we would do without them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The best nursery around! Both my little ones have went/go here and I honestly do not have one bad thing to say about it. It truly is a home from home, the setting is comfortable and clean. My little ones have been right through from babies to pre-school, every room is set out for different age ranges
and abilities. The staff are second to none, they will always go over the top to care after your children and you as a parent! They're friendly and welcoming, you will always feel safe leaving your children in their care. They always put your child interest first no matter what range they are working towards.


The management are exceptional at helping with all medical needs, they will inform you if you're child needs anything from antihistamines to inhalers or even creams for bad skin conditions. All staff are made aware if a certain child can't have something and they will make sure that this is noted in the room the child is in.


10/10 nursery, I would recommend this to anyone!

The staff have really helped out daughter settle into nursery with us going back to work. They are very good at keeping us updated through the nurseries app, getting daily pictures has been great throughout the day. When picking up our daughter the staff are happy to let us know how she has been getting

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 56 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 4.963 for Park Farm Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (646 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 671 Ratings = 4.963
  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 Park Farm Day Nursery is based on 56 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 98 number of registered child places is 19.6, which has been reached with 56 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.
