My son has been attending Buds that Blossom, since June and he seems really happy when I collect him. The staff are always happy to talk about his day and answer any questions. The communication via the app system means, I can check on how he has eaten and slept while I am at work and staff can send
any messages, quickly and effectively. I have recommended the nursery to friends and their children are starting soon.

This nursery is the reason my children are the confident, self-assured little people they are. They nurture each child and really know them and what makes them happy and know the areas where they need support. When your toddler runs out and more importantly, in, with a smile on her face, you know you
are winning, with the choice you made! Highest of recommendations for this setting. The manager and her team are fabulous!

My son has been with Buds, for a little while now and they are incredible with him! He always looks forward to nursery and we are lucky that there are never tears, as they are all so great with him.
We can't imagine him going anywhere else, as he'd be devastated! They regularly update the apps, so
we know what he's up to, which is great and he always loves the food there and never goes hungry! I can't recommend them enough!

We absolutely adore Buds that Blossom. Both our daughters have attended and they have loved going there. My youngest squeals with excitement every morning when we pull up. The staff are consistently friendly and happy, they appear to genuinely love their work and love the children. The activities they
do are so imaginative and every day is something different. We also appreciate all the little things such as, my daughter always comes home with a fresh nappy and her hair has always been re-done before we collect her. We love that the nursery promote lots of outside play and it is never limited. The children are well fed with lovely fresh food. I couldn't pick any fault with Buds that Blossom. We move around a lot with the military and have been with four different nurseries. Buds that Blossom is by far the friendliest and the most professional.

Buds that Blossom has been a really good nursery experience for my son. He settled there quickly and all of the staff are caring and knowledgeable. He seems to take part in lots of fun and varied activities throughout the day and I love that they spend so much time in the garden. They have managed to
get him eating a wide variety of foods and the menus are always really impressive. I'm astonished at how quickly they have potty trained him!

My son has been going to Buds that Blossom for 3 months and I can’t recommend them enough! They have a lovely building and great outdoor space which my son enjoys and every member of staff are so friendly and professional! I was nervous sending him to nursery but I am more than comfortable and confident
he is happy and being well looked after here! My son had a really hard time adjusting to nursery and being away from me, but Buds that Blossom have been amazing - they have worked closely with me to make sure my son is happy as am I! His key worker has been amazing!

The Manager and the Team at Buds that Blossom are always so friendly and welcoming and my daughter really enjoys her time there. It’s good to know that there is a lot of space both indoors and outdoors that she can enjoy playing in all year round. The team at Buds always keep us well informed with what
our daughter has been up to, any developments in her learning and the activities planned. It’s also reassuring to know that the food is freshly prepared on the day and we have a weekly menu provided. All in all, we are very happy with Buds and would not hesitate to recommend their excellent nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 18-month-old son started Buds that Blossom back in March 2020 and he has honestly loved every day! When I first looked around the nursery, I was so impressed with the setting itself - the resources and environment are wonderful - but I also loved the manager and her team. They were knowledgeable
and engaging; they clearly love what they do!


My son loves his key worker and I know that when I leave him in the morning he will spend his entire day happy. He is stimulated with a variety of activities which have been well planned, and a focus on outdoor learning enhances this. The use of an online learning journal also allows me the opportunity to see what my son has been doing in the day. It is a wonderful tool to see all of his exploring and learning in action! I could not recommend this nursery highly enough!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter settled in very well at Buds that Blossom. All of the staff seem genuinely happy there and take a real interest in my child's wellbeing, which is very comforting. Every morning they ask how she is/has been and at collection, time is always taken to explain how she has been during the day
and answer any questions we have.


There is a great outdoor space which is utilised daily, and my daughter really enjoys being outside, so this is perfect for her.


The menus which are prepared freshly on-site provide a brilliant variety of meals and my daughter seems to enjoy everything offered to her! I especially like that there are two proper hot meals a day, as opposed to a snacky tea which is the norm at many other nurseries.


The flexible session times are perfect to fit in with my older children, and I haven't had any trouble in booking extra sessions as needed.


Overall the nursery has a great atmosphere to help my child thrive.

The team at Buds that Blossom are amazing, we couldn’t have asked for better for our little girl.
We get regular updates including photos of what our daughter has been up to, and a good handover at the end of the day as to what she has eaten, when she has slept and anything else they feel like we
would like to know.
The food they get is freshly prepared and sounds delicious, our girl certainly seems to think so since we are often told that she has eaten everything that has been offered during the day.
The team have also accommodated our choice to use cloth nappies and wipes which is a big plus from us!
We couldn’t recommend Buds that Blossom highly enough, our baby is absolutely thriving there and we are so appreciative of everything they have done and continue to do for her.

My little boy (2 years old) has been attending Buds that Blossom for the last 3 months after we moved area. He loves going to nursery and can't wait to get there in the morning. The staff are knowledgeable and caring but also very professional. They provide a great balance of allowing him to choose
his toys to encouraging him to engage in a variety of topical activities. Meals are home-cooked on-site and are healthy and balanced. He is encouraged to engage in the nursery routine which I have no doubt will help him prepare for school, but they are also flexible in allowing for the needs of each individual child and what they do in their home environment. There is a big emphasis on spending lots of time in the fresh air, even in bad weather, which my little boy loves! The nursery is decorated beautifully and the focus is on sustainable wooden toys with lots of sensory play. Highly recommend this nursery setting.

I couldn't recommend Buds that Blossom enough. Fantastic team and lovely nursery. My little boy genuinely seems to love his time there and has settled in so well since joining in September. Everything from the facilities, outside play, activities to food are excellent and I feel so relieved that my
son is receiving such great care and attention whilst he's there. Thanks, ladies, keep up the great work!

My little boy turned 1 in September and started at Buds the same time. The settling process was excellent and despite still being very attached to me and not used to many different environments (lockdown baby), he got everything he needed and is having a really lovely time. This is a baby who is used
to contact naps and BF on-demand at home but will eat and sleep no worries for the girls, and absolutely loves all the fun stuff they get him doing. I feel totally safe dropping him off there. I have an older son and through moving around this is the fourth nursery I have used, and honestly, I cannot recommend Buds highly enough.

Buds that Blossom is a wonderful Nursery, it's warm and friendly and the focus on learning and engaging the children is great too. The ethos of the place is brilliant and forward-thinking and I really feel so happy dropping my little girl off, she literally runs in without a backward glance and is always
really excited to be there, that's such an important factor for us. The staff are all kind and very conscientious and communicative. What really impressed me from the outset is how they work with parents so symbiotically. They were great with things like potty training and sent home a bag with various books and toys to help the process to all run smoothly.
Buds that Blossom is a very clean and open space with a lovely garden too and they have their own wet weather gear, so the focus is on going outside whatever the weather and I love that.
My daughter loves it there so much and I have already recommended the Nursery to my friends.

My daughter started at Buds as soon as it opened, from the very start we have felt that my daughter's care has been above and beyond in all areas. She absolutely loves going and is so happy and chats about her day, it’s fantastic we have a good feedback at the end of the day, excellent daily activities,
and the staff are so caring and approachable all the time. The manager is so family-oriented and always at hand especially if I need days changing last minute, to have this flexibility due to shift work has not gone unnoticed.
Such a lovely setting and the building has been so well transformed.
We can’t thank you all enough for everything that you do.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The manager and the team have an amazing setting. We lost our usual childcare arrangements due to COVID and luckily there was space for both our boys aged 4 and 1.
My eldest was only with Buds for a couple of months before he started reception but they did a lot of work on phonics to help him get ready
and I noticed a real improvement in his number and letter recognition. They also contacted his school and made a little laminated pack with pictures of the teachers and classrooms to help with his transition. This all helped him to have a good start in reception.
My younger son still attends and regularly eats double portions of all the fresh food made on-site. I get regular updates and pics on their online comms tool as well as numerous bits of artwork.
The staff are all friendly and give good updates when collecting. Given the nursery is new the organisation and structure that the team have implemented make it feel like it's been open much longer. 100% recommend.

When looking for a nursery, I wanted to find somewhere that I felt genuinely cared for my daughter's happiness and development and I have definitely found that in Buds that Blossom!
The staff are all wonderful and my daughter was really fond of her key worker after only a couple of sessions. She only
attends twice a week but seems to come home all the time with new words and skills that I haven't taught her, which is so brilliant to see!
I love the emphasis on outdoor play and crafts at the nursery as well as the varied and delicious sounding seasonal menu! I would definitely recommend.

My son started at Buds recently and it has been a wonderful experience. Good environment, great food and activities. My little man is always happy to go and I'm informed of all he's been up to when I pick him up. There's also an online portal with pics of all his activities. You certainly know you are
in the right place when your child is happy and meets his key worker with open arms every day...in what has been just a matter of weeks. Highly recommend!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.509)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.509) out of 10 for Buds that Blossom Wendover is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 7 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 4.976 for Buds that Blossom Wendover is calculated as follows: ( (82 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.976
  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 4.533 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Buds that Blossom Wendover is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.4 = 0.833
  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.
