We've been really impressed with Barley Barn since our son started nursery there in February. He loves the staff and all the stimulation they provide. The food goes down really well - he always has seconds - healthy and delicious. Staff and management are always happy to have a chat and explain things with you, and are happy to take feedback on board. We receive lots of cute pictures and plenty of communication at handover. Our son is full time and they almost feel like family now we see them so much. Really pleased with our experience.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear how happy your son is at Bright Horizons Barley Barn and that you feel so supported by the team. It's lovely to know he's enjoying the food and the activities.

I have two children at Sawbridgeworth and I can honestly say the staff from the baby room all the way through to the pre-school room have been/are fantastic. They really take the time to get to know your child and my eldest, who has been there for around 3 years now, has formed close bonds with the staff. My youngest has complex additional needs and the whole team have been so open and willing to support him, which has really helped us as parents feel confident and happy when dropping him off at nursery. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! Thank you for recommending us!
There is a family feel with the nursery, where all the staff know the names...
Also, a note to say that anything that is raised with the team is dealt with in such a professional manner and always with your child's interest in mind!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with the team. Thank you for your recommendation.
My daughter started nursery back in October 2023, her settling-in process was well managed and all of the team made us feel welcome and at ease. My daughter has learned so much in the past 6 months and I am sure this is mainly because of how much care and focus goes into her day to day activities....
Thank you for all you do!

Our daughter has been at nursery in Sawbridgeworth for about a year now and she absolutely loves it. All the staff there are friendly, welcoming and caring and my wife and I have nothing but very positive and kind things to say about the nursery. The staff have excellent communication skills and keep you updated with everything that's going on with my daughter through the app and it's brilliant to see all the fun and exciting activities that my daughter does during the day which makes her happy but also develops all of her skills too. The food at nursery is amazing too and my daughter has a couple of allergies but the chef and staff there are very considerate in making sure my daughter eats the correct food. It's the people who make this nursery what it is and the manager and the girls are excellent and make the children and parents so calm and relaxed with their professionalism. Not surprised with their recent outstanding Ofsted result as you can see they have high standards at the nursery.
Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We appreciate your kind words, and hearing from our parents reminds us why we do what we do.
We have used Barley Barn since 2020 for our daughter and now our 20-month-old attends in the nursery room. They have both had great experiences there, forming strong relationships with room staff.

We have used Barley Barn since 2020 for our daughter and now our 20-month-old attends in the nursery room. They have both had great experiences there, forming strong relationships with room staff. Food choice and volume has been excellent. We are kept up to date with the app so always know what is going on. Through regular observations, reports and parent's evenings I feel we have a good understanding of developmental attainment.
Thank you for your review. We're thrilled to learn that you have a wonderful experience at our nursery. Thank you for choosing us!
His day is full of fun, creative and...
We would absolutely recommend this nursery.
It's fantastic to hear that your little boy is thriving and loving his time at Bright Horizons Barley Barn Sawbridgeworth Day Nursery! Thank you for your recommendation.
I only have praise for the nursery. The manager runs a tight ship and the nursery has gone from strength to strength. The communication to parents is good and recent renovation work has really improved the...
Most importantly, my children have always been happy there. The staff are happy and approachable and I am always well informed of any knocks or bumps the children have had, or when they are not quite themself. From a development perspective my oldest child started school with the confidence to engage with unfamiliar adults and other children and with the ability to write her name and confidently write letters, with a good understanding of the world around her. This has very much come from the support she’s had from Barley Barn. Both children have always received encouragement in whatever stage of learning they have been at.
Thank you for your review. Your review of Bright Horizons Barley Barn speaks volumes about its quality. Thank you for sharing your experience it's clear that Barley Barn has been instrumental in your children's growth!
My daughter loves going to Bright Horizons in Sawbridgeworth. She has made lots of friends and the activities are vast and help with her learning, she even asks to go on her days off! The staff are lovely and supportive. We’ve been very happy sending our daughter here for the last year!

Really pleased with Barley Barn Nursery. The nursery staff are all very friendly, helpful and attentive. My toddler is very happy going here each day and has really developed in confidence since starting. My toddler really enjoys the activities and loves the food that is served each day. The nursery has a really good offering of a variety of tasty meals to the children. My toddler also gets some good outdoor time if the weather is nice.

Once he started, he has thrived. He is happy every day when I collect him and they do so many different things with him. He paints, he dances, he builds...
Really, I couldn’t be happier with the service and care that we get from the nursery staff. It’s a warm and nurturing environment and I see the result of that every day when I pick him up and he bounces out the room.
Thank you for your review. It's heartwarming to hear about your positive experience with Bright Horizons Barley Barn Nursery! The fact that you noticed the warmth and reassurance from the staff during the settling-in period speaks volumes about their dedication to providing a nurturing environment.

My little boy absolutely loves this nursery and has such a great bond with all members of staff. Myself and the practitioners in his room have such a great partnership when it comes to my little boy, they are always handing out advice if I need it and always are working on his development while keeping me in the loop of things. My child has a great bond with his key worker and is always talking about her at home; she has definitely helped with his development, he is always happy and excited to see her when he’s in nursery.
It's wonderful to hear about your positive experience at the nursery! Thank you for your review.

My little boy started at the nursery in August 2023 (9 months old). He settled really well into the baby room, establishing bonds with all the girls in the room. He absolutely thrived in the baby room, learning new things every day! I was able to see what he was doing by pictures on the app, which made me feel at ease being able to see he was happy! My little boy has numerous allergies, and the chef/nursery catered for all his needs. He has recently moved into the nursery room, where he once again, has built bonds with all the girls. He continues to learn and develop every day and comes home doing new things all the time! The outstanding Ofsted rating is a true reflection of this nursery!

My partner and I looked at a few nurseries for our daughter and Asquith Barley Barn was the second nursery we visited, and it was the one that left a lasting memory when we went home and had to decide. From the minute you walk through the door, you have a real sense of family, genuine care and a warm, happy, inviting place. All the children were so polite and happy in greeting us as we did our tour, and the staff were so welcoming and friendly. Our daughter has been there since January, and I can honestly say she is thriving and happy. She kicks her little legs every morning in excitement as she’s carried through the front gate, and the smiles she gives to all the staff, just signify how happy she is there, and that comes down to the special environment that the staff have created and the care they give each and every child. As a family, we feel very lucky to have found her a place here, and we are so excited for her future with Sawbridgeworth.
Your review truly captures the essence of a nurturing and welcoming environment at Bright Horizons Asquith Barley Barn. Thank you for your review.

It is a fantastic nursery; staff really go above and beyond to ensure all children are well looked after and having lots of fun. Management is excellent, and the level of communication with parents, cannot be faulted. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Our son has been going to Sawbridgeworth nursery for 5 months (started at 1 year old) and has really settled so well. The staff there genuinely care about his stimulation and development and updates are given on pick-up very day as well as being logged on the app - the communication here is great, photos of his day and what and how much he has eaten, nap times, etc. Parents are encouraged to share their thoughts and can call to speak to the nursery if they have any concerns through the day. So far we are really happy and you can see how much fun the children have with different activities each day.
Thank you for letting us know how pleased you are with our nursery. Once again, thank you very much for taking the time to review us.
We had tried two nurseries previous to Asquith Barley Barn Sawbridgeworth Day Nursery (Barley Barn had been our first choice but no spaces) where our daughter (aged 2 and a half at the time) just did not settle and there were tears at drop-off every day. In the second week of attending Barley...
She has now left to start school in September as a confident and happy little girl.

I started my career in childcare with Bright Horizons back in 2003 as a Nursery Nurse, and have been fortunate enough with the company to become a Nursery Manager. I transferred over to Sawbridgeworth in December 2020, and have loved watching the children Thrive, and also the staff.Staff development is one of my passions and I strive to get the best out of each and every staff member to ensure the children can experience the awe and wonder whilst at the nursery.

I have worked for Bright Horizons for 8 years and joined the Sawbridgeworth team a year ago after transferring from another Bright Horizons Nursery. I have a 2.5-year-old daughter who also attends the nursery and is thriving. I am passionate about my job and enjoy seeing the children grow and watching their development from babies through to graduating and being ready for school. The majority of my experience has been with Under 2s and I worked my way up from a Room Supervisor to a Deputy Manager. I look forward to seeing where my Sawbridgeworth journey will take me.
