Being a first time mum & new to the feeling of sending our little one to a nursery was very daunting. However, I cannot fault barleylands nursery at all. Always so welcoming & friendly to our family and our little boy has learnt so many new skills in such a short period of being here. Thankyou endless amounts to all the team here at barleylands we cannot thank you enough!! Ps- the farm trips DAILY are a huge success with our son, not to add it's so clean & our son eats Michelin star meals each time he attends. He's adapted so well and will be sad to see it end when he's off to big school :)
The team at Barleylands are lovely and there every step of the way. Our little one is thriving and we can't wait to see how they grow in this amazing nursery
He had a really hard time settling in & the staff worked so hard to help make him comfortable, even providing additional settling in sessions for him to ensure he wasn't out the rhythm of being there.
He's thriving, i drop him off with confidence that he'll have a fun day & love getting end of day updates of what he's been up to or what he's interested in most.
Most importantly, his eating has always been difficult & they've worked so hard in introducing foods, splitting his meals to encourage him to try things. The pride I felt when the staff excitedly told me he ate a strawberry!! It's truly lovely to have staff that are invested in his development.
Having moved my 3 year old son from another setting due to not being happy with them after he was with them for over 2 years, I was worried if I had done the right thing. I need not have worried. All the ladies at Barleylands are lovely and clearly love helping the children to grow and develop. They show great encouragement, are personable, friendly and are a delight to have look after my son. I have already recommended them to numerous other Mums. Thank you to all at Barleylands, you're doing a fantastic job :-)
Recently, the nursery installed new privacy fencing, which has significantly enhanced the outdoor play area. The improved fencing not only ensures the children's safety but also provides a more secluded space for them to explore and play freely. We are truly grateful for the positive impact Barleylands has had on our son's development and well-being. The combination of dedicated staff and thoughtful improvements like the new fencing makes it a standout choice for any parent seeking quality childcare. I would also like to give a massive thank you to one lady for the outstanding work and effort she puts in with the children. You should be extremely proud of yourself and so should your management team!
My son has just started the nursery, from the settle sessions to his first few days, all of the team has been incredible. For the first few days, as my son was very unsettled, we got messages and phone call updates and photos to reassure us he was settling which made the whole going back to work a lot easier. I am extremely happy with what they offer and would highly recommend. Since being at the nursery, he has visited the farm every day which is such a fantastic opportunity. They have also catered very well to every changing dietary requirements.

Hi, I’m Lauren Apperley, Manager of Barleylands Farm Day Nursery.
Our nursery offers a warm, nurturing environment where children benefit from rich learning opportunities and hands-on, real-life experiences every day. A key part of what makes us so special is our location within Barleylands Farm Park, where children can regularly meet and learn about the farm animals.
This helps to bring learning to life and creates a truly unique and exciting childcare experience for our children.
