Review from T B (Grandmother of Child) published on 3 July 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My granddaughter had a bad start in life. We found the nursery by chance and never looked back the whole team have supported both and our granddaughter so much when she started she lacked confidence in herself and struggled with standing up unaided or walking. In the 10 months she has been there she has grown in confidence so much that now she is running about happily.

Reply from Sarah Hutson, Nursery Manager at Rand Farm Park Day Nursery & Pre-School

Thank you so much for sharing your kind words. We're delighted to hear how much your granddaughter has grown in confidence and independence during her time with us. It's wonderful to know that our team's care and support have made such a positive difference in her development and happiness. Your feedback means a lot - it's a privilege to be part of her journey and watch her flourish!

Overall Experience
Both my children have been at Rand Farm Park Day Nursery and Pre-school from 4 months old. My eldest is currently in pre school now. My 3 and a half years as a Rand Farm nursery parent has been truly incredible. You are made to feel like you and your children are part of one big family. I can't express how much I would recommend Rand Farm Nursery, both my children are thriving and everyone at Rand Nursery has had a helping hand in that.

The animals, home cooked food, soft play, outdoor play, tractor rides and so much more is just the added bonus to what is an amazing place.

Overall Experience

Since joining the nursery 3 months ago, our son has been so happy here. He is immediately settled on drop off and beams with happiness on collection. The staff are engaging with the children and they have plenty of activities in a day - we love the different themes that are frequently changed. The staff are so welcoming, look after the children so well, and give us a full de-brief on collection at the end of the day. It feels like one big family and no issue is too much trouble. The whole nursery feels very safe and we love the natural outdoorsy feel of it.

Overall Experience

Rand Farm Park Day Nursery and Preschool has provided a fun, safe and encouraging environment from day one. My daughter has been attending since she was 18 months and she is now 4, her confidence is bigger than ever and her key workers play a huge part in this! My son has started in the baby room this year and the range of activities and opportunities provided surpasses anything I would do at home. I drop them off knowing they will be really well cared for, which is all you can ask for. Thank you all for being so amazing!

My little girl has been going to Rand Farm since she was 9 months old and is now 2, and she absolutely loves it. All the staff are so friendly, approachable and just lovely and amazing with the children. I have noticed such a difference in her development since going to nursery. I know we have a few more years left but we will be so sad to leave.

Review from L M (Mother of Child) published on 22 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little boy has recently start attending Rand Farm Park Day Nursery in the baby room and I am so pleased with how the staff look after him! He had never been away from before he started attending so it was very new and quite distressing for us both but the staff have been amazing at settling him and also reassuring me at any time that I need.
The food is exceptional and he eats like a king when there and the fact that everything is included really takes the pressure off me having to sort it around work.
The access to the farm and play areas is also a huge bonus and a different learning experience that you can’t get in other child care settings and the fact that the children are taken outside regularly is a really brilliant factor.

Overall, I cannot fault this nursery, I feel at ease knowing my son is well looked after and comforted whenever he needs to be as well as having loads of fun and really good food!

The nursery setting is lovely. The staff are great and the management is brilliant.

Senior management outside the actual setting are constantly changing the rules and are not as helpful as those who actually work on-site.

Reply from Sarah Hutson, Nursery Manager at Rand Farm Park Day Nursery & Pre-School

Thank you for your review, and your time to discuss your concerns. I hope that I was able to reassure you and that our conversation about the costs for extra sessions has clarified things for you.

Overall Experience
My little girl has been coming to Rand Farm since she was 10 months old and she’s just moved into toddler room now aged 2.
The staff are very accommodating and always made her feel relaxed even when at times there have been some emotional drop-offs.
As parents we love to pick her up and see her happy face and hear all about her days at Rand Farm.
She has developed so much and her confidence has improved since she has been coming to Rand Farm.

I would like to thank all the staff in the baby room and the pre-toddler room for being so amazing with her. Special thanks to four members of staff in particular for always having a huge smile on your faces and taking such good care of my little one. I know she will miss every single one of you, thank you all.

Overall Experience

Leaving your child in a childcare setting is never easy for a parent. However, Rand Farm Park Day Nursery & Pre-School is not just a setting - it is a family. My child is so happy here - his interests are explored and developed. His learning experiences fill him with awe and wonder. He regularly visits the farm and the animals, learning about responsibility at such a young age. As a mini-farmer, he goes to the woods on regular visits, taken by the tractor and trailer. The staff at Rand always go the extra mile. They really care. I am incredibly happy leaving my child at nursery, knowing his day will probably be far better than mine!

The setting has allowed my son to thrive - the social opportunities with the other children and the animals have broadened his experiences and made him more confident. The staff have been supportive of my child and me throughout our time at the nursery. My child is very proud of his nursery and that says it all.

My little boy goes to Rand Farm Nursery and I can’t wait to send my little girl when she is a bit older!
My son struggles being left with anyone but his granny but the team were so good and he settled in really quickly! He now can’t wait to go in the morning. He has an amazing time and goes around the farm nearly every morning he is in. Seeing the positive effect this nursery has had is heartwarming.

The staff are very friendly and so understanding about everything. I could not rate the nursery higher and would recommend to anyone!

Overall Experience

Our daughter loves coming to Rand Farm Park Day Nursery & Pre-School! She settled straight away in the baby room with no tears. She now gets excited as soon as we pull onto the drive singing “iya quack quacks” or “E-I-E-I-O”. All the staff are friendly and welcoming. The online portal and communication are amazing. I love being able to drop her off and pick her up within her room and share her nursery environment with her. They are very inclusive and cater for dietary requirements and individual preferences. The activities and resources are child-friendly and engaging. They use lots of natural materials and sensory play for open-ended experiences. She loves visiting the animals on the farm. It really is above and beyond what you would expect for a nursery!

Absolutely amazing nursery, fantastic staff who are very good at putting you at ease when my little boy started. Staff are great at listening to my worries and am able to share any information and feel supported. My little boy loves coming here and feels the experience he gets here is far better than what he could get at most nurseries. He is able to visit the farm, interact with the animals and learn more than what he may have done in another setting.

Overall Experience
My little one has been attending nursery since he was 3 months old. He absolutely adores the girls in his room. To see him develop over the last few months is amazing he’s got such a good bond with each staff member in there and you can see how well they have cared for him from such a young age.
Leah is absolutely phenomenal. She goes above and beyond for the baby room and you can really see the passion she has for the babies! They absolutely adore her. She will always remember everything I’ve told her about my son each week, and will always reassure me that he does enjoy attending, I love getting regular updates and even paintings which he has done too.

I look forward to seeing him progress throughout the nursery. And I don’t regret for one minute taking him so young to nursery as he’s absolutely thriving and it’s all down to the love and care they provide.

My name’s Sarah, and I am the Nursery Manager here at Rand Farm Park Day Nursery and Pre-School.

I have been part of the nursery’s journey since before opening in 2019, and it has been incredibly rewarding to see the setting grow from an empty building site into the thriving, nurturing environment it is today.

I am deeply passionate about early years education and take great pride in the high standard of care and education we strive to provide. Watching children grow, develop, and reach their individual milestones is a true privilege.

I am extremely proud of our dedicated team of educators, whose commitment, knowledge, and genuine care for the children is evident in the strong bonds they form each day. Observing the meaningful interactions between staff and children, and the positive impact these relationships have on children’s confidence, learning, and wellbeing, is one of the most rewarding aspects of my role.

Our unique farm setting provides rich, hands-on learning opportunities that support children’s curiosity and connection with the natural world. Being based on the farm allows children to explore, learn through real-life experiences, and develop a strong sense of respect for nature, animals, and the environment, with support from their educators and the team of farmers here at Rand.

Building strong partnerships with parents and carers is central to our ethos. We actively promote an open-door approach and value open communication, ensuring families feel supported and involved in their child’s learning journey. I am always around for a chat and believe that working closely with families is essential in achieving the best outcomes for every child.

Our mission is to ensure learning feels like home. Full of love, laughter, and imagination.
