Review from Syed S (Father of Child) published on 9 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are incredibly caring and friendly, and they provide a safe, nurturing environment where our child feels secure and happy. Our child always comes home smiling. Although it took him a little time to settle in, the staff were absolutely brilliant, so patient, understanding, and supportive throughout the process. Unfortunately, he was ill over Christmas and missed out on the festive fun, but when he returned in the New Year, the nursery had thoughtfully saved lots of little gifts and treats for him, which was such a lovely surprise. We would highly recommend this nursery to any parent!

Review from M M (Father of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both of my kids been to this nursery. The staff had been really good and both kids loved the setting. My younger one started nursery last year and the staff in baby room were all very good. The kid had very good connection with the key person. Taking in the kids was straight forward and in the evenings we were told about the day's activities. Very good handover. Focus weeks are very beneficial where we wanted certain areas of development and the staff had been good at focussing on it.
The transition for my little one from baby room to toddler's had been smooth. The staff had a very good plan of the transition and executed very well.

My kid enjoys the nursery and is a good facility.

Review from M H (Father of Child) published on 28 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Staff are diligent and caring. We are kept up to date at handover. Child loves going to pre school and has blossomed since attending nursery / pre school. Child always feels safe, we feel confident and assured with safeguarding and hitting milestones etc.

One issue is that child is charged for meals and snacks despite being under 5.

Reply from Lacey Hart, Nursery Manager at Brooksward School, Nursery and Pre-School
Thank you for your feedback - we really appreciate you sharing your thoughts, and we're delighted to hear how well your child is doing with us.
Regarding the concern about being charged for meals and snacks, we completely understand why this might be confusing, so thank you for raising it.

Review from N A (Mother of Child) published on 26 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The school has been a breath of fresh air since transferring from our previous preschool. Communication is excellent, and the care and attention given to my child is clearly evident. My child enjoys attending preschool and loves the teachers. I appreciate the weekly updates outlining what the children have done and what is planned for the week ahead. Thank you for being so patient and supportive with my child, as it has been a long journey for us.

I feel that our child is thriving in this environment, and we are grateful for the positive impact the school has had. We could not be happier with the experience so far.

Review from N P (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our little one adores it here, his little legs and arms bounce up and down when he sees the front door.

The team are great and super helpful, it's very apparent that they love what they do. When he started he wouldn't take a bottle but the team both blended all his meals and helped us get him onto a bottle.

The team are great at communicating with us. Every day they provide a in depth description of what they have been up to. Also I feel confident as they will call us if there is any concerns.

We'd highly recommend the place to anyone

Reply from Lacey Hart, Nursery Manager at Brooksward School, Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for sharing this lovely feedback. It's wonderful to hear how excited your little one is to come in each day and how well he has settled. We're really pleased that the team's care, communication, and support-especially with feeding-have made such a positive difference. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we truly appreciate your trust.

My boys have been attending Brooksward Nursery and Pre-School from day 1.

They absolutely love it and settled in very nicely and easy. Staff have been so caring and thoughtful and loving towards our children. Absolutely love it there. I always receive a full report of what they have eaten during the day and what activities they have been doing and also photos which is great. Highly recommend!

Review from C H (Father of Child) published on 16 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have had children attending this setting for the last six years and did not hesitate to continue with them once the school took control after the private company previously running it pulled out with very little notice.

Luckily there was a high level of staff retention which made the transition unnoticeable to my two and a half year old, but that also speaks volumes about how much the staff care for this nursery!

Every member of staff is approachable and accommodating especially during those occasional difficult drop offs.

Both my children enjoy going there and have a fond attachment to the staff (which includes the desire to invite them to their birthday parties)

The rooms are well equipped and there is constant rotation of activities. Especially as they now bring in football classes and a music/dance activity.

The PE lessons with the school coaches have been a great addition too and the constant forest school upgrades continue to be another jewel in the crown.

TLDR: It's great!

Review from Michelle H (Mother of Child) published on 15 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have two children within the nursery and preschool and highly recommend it. The staff are friendly, welcoming and supportive of the children. Both my children have been in the setting since they were 11 months old, and settled quickly. The balance of learning and fun is good, and they are happy to work with you on any areas of concern. I also like how much outdoor time they allow for the children, as the outdoor areas are good and they also enjoy forest school and PE.

Reply from Lacey Hart, Nursery Manager at Brooksward School, Nursery and Pre-School
