Oakley Nursery and Preschool

My eldest is at the pre school and my youngest is in the baby room. I cannot recommend Oakley enough. Throughout the nursery the staff are just incredible - so kind, so friendly and so warm. They come up with such a wide range of activities for the children (in all of the rooms) which the children really enjoy. It is such a special place and I'm so happy we found it!

I also love how they take the babies on regular walks around town and show them different sights every day. So pleased we chose Oakley!

I will always reccomend this nursery to anyone that asks they deserve to be known!!!thank you

We love it.

I have absolutely loved my experience at Oakley so far. The care of staff is above and beyond. They really make this nursery exceptional. I love seeing my child happily run through the front door each day and I've always felt secure sending her there. They have always been very flexible and accommodating. It's a very personal experience and because it's small there is a real family vibe that runs through and through.

Such brilliant staff and great care. We've been staying with Oakley for four years now and have never regretted it. When your child runs in every morning with a big smile on his face, that means a lot.

Highly recommend Oakley.

We've had two children go through Oakley and both have loved it. The teaching at the pre-school level has been excellent and more than prepared the elder child for Reception. I know the younger ones enjoy the stomps off to a very well-known park too.

Oakley is a home-from-home environment for my 2-year-old. We moved to the area a year ago and moved our daughter from a London nursery, which was part of a chain. We were instantly impressed with Oakley and the loving nature of the staff and the personal communication we have with them. It genuinely feels like a family and our daughter clearly enjoys her time at Oakley and has gone from strength to strength. I think they have a good balance of indoor and outdoor play and outings in the town, a benefit of the proximity to the central services. We couldn't be happier!

The nursery provides a caring and kind environment, ensuring children learn and have fun in a safe environment. We love how professional and involved the staff are. They do diverse activities, making sure the children feel ready for school and also build great social skills with their peers and adults. Both our children have been enjoying their time here. The food they provide is healthy, and I love how it encourages them to try different dishes.

He enjoys his little friends and we always get feedback how his day was.

They provide a rich variety of learning opportunities and staff really value the importance of learning through play and being creative. I would highly recommend Oakley.

My daughter started in September last year, talking but shy, teachers remarked as being concerned about lack of socialisation, which wasn't how she was at home. Within a month, she blossomed into an overtly social, cheeky girl all thanks to the guys at Oakleys being so wonderful. She is obsessed with going to nursery and often runs in without saying bye to us! I can't rate the team and nursery enough, best decision we made was sending her here!

Oakley is such an amazing preschool/nursery! My oldest went when he was preschool age and they made sure he was so well-prepared to start school. My youngest is now at preschool in Oakley and it just seems to get better and better, three members of staff in particular are such a fantastic team as are all the staff and my son absolutely loves going, he started off being very anxious but all that has stopped and he's really loving preschool. Nothing is ever too much for the team and he's being taught things that are at a reception level it's just amazing. I'll be sad to stop going when my youngest starts school in September!

My child has absolutely thrived at Oakley. She came from another nursery which she did not enjoy at all and was very shy to start with. Oakley transformed her into a confident and extremely happy child. She loves the staff members, she loves the art and activities. She loves going out for walks with staff and peers. She loves Oakley so much in fact she decided to stay there until she is very 'long' (which in her mind means old).

Very nurturing and caring, my three-year-old girl and two-year-old boy love coming here. We started in the toddler group, which helped us settle in and take extra care - particularly with my boy who has speech difficulties. Then moved to pre-school where they had a blast!

Children are encouraged to become independent in getting dressed, using the toilet, and all the basics needed for when they go to primary school. They also have a Spanish teacher once a week. The nursery is in the centre of Sevenoaks, which means limited outdoor space on site, but what they do have is well maintained and laid out, plus they make regular visits to Knole Park, the library and Rockdale retirement home, ensuring a variety of outdoor exercise and experiences. The staff work extremely hard to provide a rounded education and exceptional care, so I give them 5 stars!

His current key worker is kind and caring. She always makes time to speak to parents at drop off or pick up and really genuinely cares about the kids. The kids all love her and I couldn’t ask for anyone better to look after my son.

Amazing nursery. Caring and supportive, always attentive to every detail and so patient. Each teacher finds time to understand the kid’s needs and interests as well as create a plan for the development. Our son has been struggling with speech development and they have created a plan to help him move forward which has helped a lot. I feel safe and happy knowing that my kid is in this nursery. Highly recommend it.

We wholeheartedly recommend Oakley to any parent seeking a nurturing and light-hearted early learning experience for their child. The loving and playful environment, along with the attentive and caring staff, make it a top choice for families in the area. My child has thrived in this cheerful and welcoming setting, and I couldn't be more grateful for the positive impact it has had on our family.
