Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending this nursery since September 2023. I can not fault the nursery at all. The staff are all lovely and welcoming. The nursery as a whole is an amazing setting, and I would highly recommend it. My son loves going to nursery; they take great care of him and do fun activities that
he loves doing. I love that they send you a daily report every session with what he’s been up to and what he’s eaten etc, including a photo of what he’s been doing.
It really is a home-from-home setting!

Great nursery, with lovely staff and my child is well looked after whilst there. My little one brings home lovely arts and crafts that he has made whilst there and participates in themed activities throughout the month/year, which is lovely to see on his daily report.
Overall, a great nursery, which
I would recommend.

A lovely, welcoming home-from-home setting. My children have always loved attending and had the most wonderful care and education.

This is a great nursery, the staff are amazing, so kind and caring. I feel at ease leaving him, knowing he's safe, happy, and well looked after. My little boy loves going too, which is a bonus. All smiling, and loves the activities and photos he takes part in. Brings a smile to our faces every week.

Staff are super friendly and make our child’s nursery experience enjoyable. Have seen a growth in confidence in our child since attending nursery. Very good range of food/ lunches and snacks. Good range of activities and crafts, and the children look like they have a great time throughout the day and
can’t thank the ladies enough.

My little girl has been coming to Brambles since she was 9 months old and she's now 3. Although she only attends a few days a week she loves going! The staff in each room have all been amazing with her and have helped her to develop into such a confident little girl. We all love the variety of activities
that are on offer throughout the day and to have hot meals provided is also amazing. Would recommend Brambles!

My son has been going since 8 months old, he's now nearly 3. If when we've had a minor issue or anything, it's always been resolved straight away. Overall we've had an amazing experience with the Nursery and my son has come on leaps and bounds since being there.

Review from Nicola J (Mother of Child) published on 7 March 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has been attending S4YC @ Brambles Children's Day Nursery for over twelve months. It’s very daunting leaving your little one in the hands of strangers when you have to return to work from maternity leave but the staff were so lovely and welcoming, it made the whole experience less stressful
for both myself and my son.
He loves going, sometimes doesn’t even want to come home! They are always either doing crafts or outside (which my little one loves). The food is cooked from scratch with a different menu each day.
I would highly recommend Brambles, I don’t live near there, just work nearby but I keep my toddler there as the staff are so lovely. I will be sending my other son when I return to work from maternity leave again.
The only thing I would suggest, as an improvement, is a report of some sort every term to see how they are developing, interacting in a group, managing with their learning etc. I know they would get this in the pre-school but even as a toddler, I would like to know for my own peace of mind.

Review from Jennifer M (Mother of Child) published on 7 March 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I did a lot of research and viewings when I was looking for a nursery for my son.
I instantly liked the environment when I went to view S4YC @ Brambles Children's Day Nursery. It was clear they care about the children and their development.
My son started at Brambles in September 2023 when he was
8 months old for one day a week - he settled in super quick and I believe that was down to the staff in the baby room (although all the staff make a fuss of him when I drop him off which is lovely).
I decided to put him in an extra day a week from February this year because he enjoys going so much and the staff do lovely activities with the children and treat him with such care and compassion. They have always been flexible when I’ve changed his schedule.
I also feel so comfortable when I drop him off or pick him up and the staff are so friendly and accommodating.
Brambles Day Nursery really is a community and I can’t wait to see what else my son gets up to over the years.

My baby girl has been coming to this nursery since she was 9 months old, my baby girl is now 2 and a half she feels so secure with the amazing staff, she runs in every time, her favourite lady, she runs up to her or goes straight to her when she is in it makes me so happy that my baby is secure with
these amazing staff, they are so caring and do everything they can for my baby and all the children that attend and the staff deserve a lot of praise. I love they get fresh food every day and do so many activities with the children, she has come on so much since being here and her speech is amazing, she also comes home singing in Welsh which is amazing, they have helped develop my baby so much and would highly recommend this nursery. Like I said staff can't do enough and the staff are always smiling which is great.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.946)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.946) out of 10 for S4YC @ Brambles Children's 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.946 for S4YC @ Brambles Children's Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (354 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.946
  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 S4YC @ Brambles Children's Day Nursery is based on 31 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, which has been reached with 31 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.
