Review from Hannah P (Mother of Child) published on 5 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have been really impressed with Berryfields Nursery. We moved our little girl when the nursery opened in January 2023. We had several settling-in sessions, and we were impressed with the effort the staff went to in order to settle her in. Since then, she has gone from strength to strength, and I can clearly see what she has learnt from nursery in the tasks she now carries out around the house. The staff are caring and spend considerable time working on her goals with her. We had our first parent evening, and her key worker went over the time, outlining what our little girl was doing and how they could help to continue to grow and develop. The nursery makes a real effort to welcome the community in - I have been to a couple of afternoon sessions, as well as a recent Carol Concert that parents and local residents of the care home next door were invited to. I have already signed up my four-month-old to start next year!

Overall Experience
My son has been attending Childbase in Berryfields since May 2023. He settled in extremely well and has made meaningful connections with the staff.
He struggles with his interaction and communication skills and occasionally becomes frustrated. The staff have been exceptional in their approach to his particular needs.
The staff have recognised his additional needs in various areas and have put measures in place within the nursery to support his development. We have also worked closely together with his key worker and specialist nursery staff to put an action plan in place to support further development.
The nursery also offer courses and other online support to the parents via their app. I have already undertaken first aid and child behaviour workshops. These were extremely helpful and were available free of charge.

Childbase offers a wonderful service and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Overall Experience
I cannot rate this nursery enough, I always feel like my little one is completely safe when he’s there, he always has healthy meals and snacks and I love getting photos of him on the parent portal!
The nursery is kept so clean all of the time and the selection of toys for the little ones to play with is huge!

The staff are always so accommodating and so welcoming, I know my little one is always being well looked after.

Overall Experience

My daughter started Berryfields Day Nursery when she was 6 months old. Before starting we had settling-in sessions which were amazing, I was blown away by the setting and the staff, they were friendly, professional and helpful. When I took a tour of the nursery, I was impressed by the way in which the learning and activities were set up, planned and carried out. Once I had seen what was on offer here, not just the amazing staff, but also the clean and inviting learning environment, there was no other choice. I was amazed by the way my daughter settled in so quickly and the professional bond that was developed seamlessly. I felt so comfortable dropping my daughter off, knowing that she was so happy and well cared for. The app is amazing, I enjoy seeing snippets of her day. My daughter loves attending nursery, she laughs and smiles every time we pull up outside. The progress and confidence that my child has made has been exceptional. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Review from Kimberley E (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started attending Berryfields Day Nursery three days a week when he was 14 months old. I returned to work at the same time, and we are really pleased with how quickly he has settled into this new environment. We visited half a dozen nurseries in the local area before choosing Berryfields.
My son suffers from numerous, and we feel understood and supported by the staff who work hard to keep him safe. The building is wonderfully clean, homely, and well-equipped. The staff we have met have been kind, caring and generous with their time.

He regularly surprises us with new skills, and we are confident that he is safe and happy here. As he moves up to the next room, we look forward to seeing his confidence and language skills continue to develop. We know that he'll especially love the large outside space to run around!

Review from Christina I (Mother of Child) published on 3 October 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter started attending Berryfields Day Nursery in June this year when she was 12 months old, as my wife returned to work. The team were so kind and took the time to ensure that both she and us were comfortable with the transition. We attended two/three settling-in sessions and our little one was so comfortable with the environment and the staff straight away. She loves going every morning and she has so much fun when she's there. I feel confident that she is safe and happy and is learning so much every day! The updates on the app are super useful and they make you feel you are part of her day. The staff are always so responsive, friendly and so accommodating as we had to change her days a couple of times due to our work commitments. We have already recommended Berryfields Day Nursery to friends and will continue to do so!

Overall Experience

My daughter started attending Berryfields Day Nursery when she was ten months old, as I returned to work. The team were so kind and communicative and took the time to ensure that both she and I were comfortable with the transition. I feel confident that she is safe and happy in such a caring and nurturing environment. Her recent transition to the under 2s room has also been brilliantly handled! She is brimming with confidence and is learning so much thanks to the attentive, expert staff, plus communication on both her daily activities and overall progress is excellent. I have already recommended Berryfields Day Nursery to friends and will continue to do so!

Review from Katarina N (Mother of Child) published on 23 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Berryfields day nursery is absolutely brilliant! My son joined when he was 3.5 years old in February 2023 on a full-time basis, 5 days a week. He was previously with a childminder for 2.5 years. We were very keen on getting our son in after visiting the nursery before opening and a great communication from the management team answering all our questions. Communication still remains amazing, always getting a reply the same day. The nursery offers a brand-new setting, very clean, beautiful handmade furniture, wooden toys, very friendly staff and super tasty food. Safeguarding is excellent. The girls who work in a preschool class are amazing, always go above and beyond! We have noticed a massive improvement in our son's development since he joined and now he is fully prepared to start at school in September. My son absolutely loves it, every morning gets super excited to go in and doesn't want to leave at the end of the day. We would 100% recommend Berryfields Day Nursery to any parents.

Overall Experience
My daughter is 3.5 and has been going to Berryfields Day Nursery since February this year and I can’t fault it.
She was with a childminder before going to the nursery and I question myself every day why I didn’t move her sooner.
Her confidence has grown 10 fold since going here. They’re supportive and encouraging in the right way and have been great with my once shy little one.

They listen to concerns and alter the way they care for your child to suit you as a family and I couldn’t ask for anything more.

Review from Veena T (Mother of Child) published on 18 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son started his preschool sessions at Berryfields Day Nursery twice a week in May this year. The staff are all so kind and professional in caring and helping children to grow and learn day by day. His key person is a fantastic and knowledgeable teacher, as she is preparing children through stories and nice activities on how to start school in September. I can see clearly my child's confidence and a big smile on his face at drop-off time every day. A big thank you to the business administrator too, she is so friendly and amazing in all updates. I must say a very safe environment here, highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience

Berryfields Day Nursery (Aylesbury) is a great nursery – I would and have recommended it to friends. The kids are happy, there are fun and educational activities every day. It's a clean and new building but also a very homely environment with the right level of stimulation for each age group. Great outdoor space too. The staff are a great mixture of ages and all are kind, friendly and competent, whilst adhering to rules required for a safe environment. Safeguarding is excellent. I've experienced a few nurseries over the years and this is one of the best. My son has loved his time there and the staff have been supportive with any issues we have experienced. They are preparing him for his time at school soon and he is raring to go!

Review from Z Z (Mother of Child) published on 3 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I am delighted to share my wonderful experience with Berryfields Day Nursery as my son prepares to transition to reception. The supportive staff and their commitment to every child's development, including those with special educational needs, were truly remarkable. The nursery offered a wealth of engaging activities in a beautiful setting, providing a stimulating environment for learning and exploration. The staff's support for parents, coupled with valuable coping techniques, made a significant difference. Although slightly expensive, the nursery's excellent value for money, easy parking, tasty snack selection, and abundant learning materials were highly impressive. The key workers were amazing, and the friendly management team made the application process seamless.
My son's time here has been nothing short of remarkable, and I am confident that the foundations laid here will contribute to his future success.

Berryfields Day Nursery is a haven where children thrive!

Overall Experience

My daughter started at the nursery from the beginning of January and it has just been such a smooth journey. Everyone has been so warm, and my daughter just fits there like never before. I was really antsy as she was in a smaller setting and worried she wouldn't fit in where there are a lot more kids around, but all the staff have made her so welcome she just fits in. She loves her food there too. She has made leaps and bounds in her confidence where it comes to big crowds. We are so happy we chose Berryfields Day Nursery. Would always recommend them.

Review from Matthew D (Father of Child) published on 30 May 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy has been to 3 childbase nurseries and Berryfields has not disappointed at maintaining the standards we now expect. The new building is very well equipped, he adores going and talks about all the staff at home. He has built friendships and loves to tell me everything he’s done during his day. The settling-in process was really smooth, given the nursery wasn’t fully open. I would 100% recommend Berryfields to any parent.

Berryfields Day Nursery is absolutely amazing! We love this nursery! It is one of the best nurseries in Aylesbury! My daughter attends the nursery since they opened in January 2023. I remember the first day when she walked into the nursery and said goodbye to me without hesitation. She is very happy and I am happy! The staff are amazing, professional and with lots of knowledge and experience. They have good activities, the food is delicious and the facilities are clean. Communication, transparency and honesty are very important for me and I did find what I was looking for in this nursery. Thank you so much for everything to our Berryfields Day Nursery family!

My daughter has settled in really well and gets so excited when we pull up to the nursery each morning. The fact she happily jumps into the arms of whoever is in the room that day and waves me off each morning fills me with so much ease. The team there is all really, really friendly, and the facilities are amazing; I’m so glad I chose Berryfields Day Nursery for my daughter and would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking about sending their child there.
