Review from Nicole W (Mother of Child) published on 13 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cant express how wonderful this nursery is. I recently moved my toddler from another nursery nearby and I cant explain how different the experience has been. The rooms are fantastic, the outdoor space is amazing and the staff are incredible. They actually seem happy to work there and not fed up and exhausted (although im sure they are after a day of looking after all our kids lol) like staff at the other nursery did. Our whole experience has been nothing but positive. I would highly recommend this place and I am so relieved to not dread nursery drop offs and feel guilt all day any longer. My son loves it and I am sure he will thrive here! Thank you Nurtured @ Northfield!

Review from Kelly T (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Nurtured Nursery is absolute amazing.

The staff are super friendly, approachable and are always there to help and support.

The menu choices are changed on a termly basis and offer a varied dietary requirements. The staff are always happy to help to make sure my child eats, even if they are going through a funny eating stage.

My child absolutely loves going on a new week to see what new toys/activities he is going to do that week.

He also loved it when they brought external people in to learn Spanish and Rugby Tots.

Both my boys have been at this nursery from a baby until starting school age and I will miss all the staff so much.

100% recommended!

Overall Experience

Both of my little ones (now in Toddler 2 and Pre School) have attended since babies.

They love it. The activities are varied with a good educational focus, there is plenty of time outdoors, and quality home made food.

My pre schooler is even having Spanish lessons.

It's a great little nursery and I would recommend all day long.

Overall Experience

The staff have been amazing especially since my son was diagnosed with diabetes. They have gone above and beyond to complete extra training and care plans and always ensure we as parents are happy and confident and that he is comfortable and cared for. I am proud to use Nurtured and feel my son has developed incredibly since attending, he loves the staff and it's his favourite day of the week!

Review from Jean S (Mother of Child) published on 26 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Nurtured. From the moment we walked in, we felt reassured by the warm and welcoming environment. The staff are caring, attentive, and truly dedicated to each child's development.

Our 2-year-old has flourished here-he's grown in confidence, made lovely friendships, and enjoys every moment, whether it's exploring outside, playing in the mud kitchen, or engaging in creative activities. His keyworker has been fantastic, always keeping us updated on his progress and milestones.

We're especially grateful for how the nursery encourages independence and learning through play while making sure the children feel safe and loved. It's amazing to see our little boy excited to go to nursery every day!

Highly recommend Nurtured to any parent looking for a nurturing, fun, and stimulating place for their child. Thank you to the wonderful team for all that you do.

Review from Kirsty B (Mother of Child) published on 26 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our almost two year old has been with Nurtured since she was 10 months and we've been consistently impressed by the quality of care and support she receives. She's really bonded and connected with the staff. They know her personality and do whatever they can to help her settle in for day and make the most of her time there. They've been flexible in supporting with adhoc sessions in the absence of usual family childcare provisions.

We get regular personalised updates and it always seems like she's had the best time. Would definitely recommend to others and hope our little one continues her nursery journey at Nurtured. Thank you all!

Review from Rebecca K (Mother of Child) published on 26 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been at Nurtured at Northfield for a full year, and we can only praise both his and our experiences.

The activities planned for the children are interesting and varied, and as parents we are always updated on what these will be and photos of the children completing them. The children are given the opportunity to participate in extra activities, and they spend a lot of time exploring and playing outside. The meals are nutritious and varied, and our son's ability to use cutlery utensils has come on greatly during his time there.

Even more important than the above, the staff are so warm, friendly and attentive. We are given frequent updates about our son across the day, and staff (even those who don't work in his room) always greet him by his name on arrival and pick up.

We are so happy with our son's provision, and feel incredibly comfortable leaving him there whilst we are at work.

Review from A M (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Couldnt recommend this nursery enough, picking a nursery for my little one was super important for me with all horror stories and first time mum it was all new, we started the journey with Nurtured - Northfield in Aug with settling days before starting in September, every step was super easy, relaxed and child focused, the amount of energy, work and love all the staff put into the work they do for all the children in all the rooms is incredible each room has its own style of how it is decorated and targeted for each age groups. My little one has been in toddler 1 & 2 and it has been an absolute amazing journey to watch her grow and have so much comfort from the staff she truly enjoys every second being at nursery! They adapt to each child in so many ways and love to include the parents in as many ways as possible, little parent & child breakfast events or organized trips for picnic with all the little ones it's truly amazing nursery and the staff are incredible!

Absolutely brilliant nursery, my son loves going and the staff have brought him on leaps and bounds.
The staff are great and regularly keep in touch with updates on his development and progress.
The on site chef is a bonus too and provides peace of mind knowing my child is getting nutritious home cooked food.

Thank you to everyone at Northfield!

Review from A R (Mother of Child) published on 12 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter's been attending since she was 6 months old, she is currently 20 months old. Her progression since attending is outstanding. Something we couldn't have achieved at home being 2 full time working parents with no other siblings currently for our daughter to learn from. She is always excited to attend nursery and comes away telling us daily of other pupils names who she's made friends with. There is always regular updates on her daily activities and progress development reports done regularly. It is a big commitment to trust strangers to care for your child, but I have faith in every single one of staff members at Nurtured.. they don't get enough credit for their daily hard work and commitment. It is an outstanding nursery with not one negative comment. My only 4 star on value for money isn't directed at the nursery personally it's more a general comment on current overall childcare costs in the UK.

Overall Experience

My twins have been attending Nurtured since they were 9 months old, they are almost 4 now! They love going in each day to see their amazing key workers, the management team and baking with the chef! They have made wonderful friends and I couldn't imagine them going anywhere else. They get outside to play come rain or shine, which is great for their development, and they are encouraged to be independent and are involved in everyday tasks to do this.

Review from Alana J (Mother of Child) published on 6 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I was recommended this nursery by my sister who took my niece here years ago. In 2022 me and my sister both had little ones months apart from each other and we said from the start that Nurtured @ Northfield was where they were going to attend nursery together!
It's a brilliant place, so welcoming, clean, the staff are brilliant with the kids and parents, the activities the children do are well thought out and exciting- you get updates weekly so that you know exactly what your kids are doing and why. My little girl is super excited to go to nursery each morning, when she gets there I don't even get a goodbye because she's eager to go in and learn/play and when I pick her up to come home she never wants to leave!
Also just to mention, the nursery meals are incredible- I'm always so jealous at how great the place smells when I pick my little girl up after dinner- the meal plans change weekly and it's all freshly cooked from scratch!

Would recommend Nurtured @ Northfield to anyone!

Fantastic nursery. Having 2 children that attend I can't recommend them enough. The staff are so welcoming, friendly and supportive of the children. I get regular updates on their progress and daily updates including what they have eaten and how much. Both Children love the food they serve, the eldest is excited each morning to see what's on the menu for that day. The nursery has a brilliant range of activities from playing rugby to learning Spanish. It's a great place to get kiddies ready for school. We are so pleased we chose Nurtured

Overall Experience

My little girl attends Nurtured @Northfields and I can honestly say the team and setting are exceptional. We started at a different setting to which we had some issues and transferring my daughter to Northfields was the best decision we made. Can not fault the team or setting in any way, they have been supportive in terms of additional needs (SEN) and assessments for our child ensuring that she has a plan tailored to her own specific learning requirements. My daughter loves her school days and has a fabulous attachment to the team that work to meet her every need, whilst in the setting. Communication is outstanding and the team is so nurturing. Thank you, Northfield!

Review from Amy D (Mother of Child) published on 30 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been going to Nurtured @Northfield since 2022 following the positive feedback of my nephew who loved attending. I couldn't find fault in any of the staff, they all have a keen eye for detail and provide an amazing environment for each child to develop and grow individually, whilst constantly being in a safe environment. The app ensures updates on their well-being and activities plus photos to see how much fun they are having. My second child is already signed up, I wouldn't want to use any other setting for them.
