Overall Experience

Our children love going to Oaktree and we've been really happy with the care they receive there. They particularly enjoy the new forest school sessions, and French lessons in the pre-school class.

The staff are all warm and friendly and it's brilliant having such exciting and varied outdoor play

areas - which ours thoroughly enjoy!

Reply from The School, Nursery Manager at The Oak Tree Nursery & Pre School

Overall Experience

Great hands on management and overview .
Some amazing staff who give super care and love to the kids. This balances out the odd one or two less experienced members.
Great food prepared on site .
Good open and safe outdoor spaces with long periods of outdoor activities.

All this makes Oaktree

in Bere Hill superior to most other nurseries.

Reply from The School, Nursery Manager at The Oak Tree Nursery & Pre School

Thank you for your honest feedback. We are so lucky to have such a lovely nursery with amazing staff, children and parents.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending oak tree since he was around 18 months old , he's now 4 and going to school this year and honestly if I could keep him at oak tree for longer I would! I can't thank the staff and management enough for the extra support that has been put in place for my child, he has extra care

needs due to being autistic and they have consistently gone above and beyond to help him thrive. His keyworker have always been amazing and his current keyworker , who he has been with since joining the pre school is phenomenal. I have nothing but great words to say about her , she is so important and special to my son and they are so bonded. The outside facilities are amazing, especially Forest school. All the staff know the children by name , we are always welcomed by happy faces and smiles. My son runs in every morning full of smiles and energy. The chef is amazing to , my son eats such a range of healthy delicious meals and always comes home with a full tummy!xx

Overall Experience

The Oak Treehave made our son's first few weeks at nursery such a positive experience. It has been so reassuring to see how much care and attention has been given to help him settle in, and we are really grateful for the warm and welcoming environment they've created.

A special thank you to two staff

members in particular, who have clearly taken the time to get to know our son and make sure he feels safe and happy. It means so much to us to know he's in such kind and capable hands.

Thank you so much for your kind feedback - I will make sure I share this with the team.

Overall Experience

I have had both my children attend the Oak Tree nursery since 2021. My eldest began in preschool when we moved to the area and absolutely loved it here. My youngest started at 10months and currently still there. Both of my children built safe and positive relationships with staff that took care of them.

They were happy at drop off and pick up and the staff were great at letting us know what they had been up to and specifically what they have enjoys. Hand overs are thorough at the end of the day and staff take the time to talk you through your child's day in detail. I appreciate that staff are been honest about any challenges your child is facing and do not shy away from having difficult conversations. They are supportive and provide a good level of care for the children that attend the nursery. I would recommend the nursery to prospective parents.

Overall Experience

Great care for my child, lovely friendly and supportive staff. My child seems to be very happy, eagerly goes to the nursery and very well looked after. The downside is that daily activities are not tracked on the app, we cannot see naps, nappy changes/toilet visits, food intake in a single place which

we could have accessed any time for review and analysis particularly as we have issues with eating at home, child seems to like very limited choice of food. It is extremely inconvenient to be queueing up daily to obtain that valuable information and in most cases we just get the child and walk away, we are also not able to come early to do an early handover as we are working until 6pm. Some investment into the app would be very beneficial for all parents, particularly for those who are separated and have to rely on another parent passing daily activities info over. Lastly, no flexibility in having very rare short term rearrangements of attended days even with an advanced notice.

Reply from Clare Luff, Nursery Manager at The Oak Tree Nursery & Pre School

Thank you for your feedback. I am excited to share with you that we are currently putting a new system in place that will offer you all the information you need. Once our training is complete, I will share more information with you.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending the Daisy Chain Nursery Emsworth for a few months. We felt lucky at the beginning to get him a place here and it did not let us know.
All staff are very friendly and caring and the premises are very clean. My son has become very fond of his key person and he is always keen

to go to nursery. They do a lot of activities throughout the week and they make an effort to get them out in the garden for outdoor play and fresh air. I particularly like the daily reporting and feedback we get either through the App or at pick up. The staff always take time at pick up to go through how his day has been, how much he ate, slept etc. Thank you to everyone at Daisy Chain for making my son's days enjoyable. I highly recommend this nursery.

My son has been at Daisy Chain Nursery since January 2023 and we can't recommend the place enough. Staff are all amazing that we have interacted with throughout his time there. Full of enthusiasm, kindness and professionalism always. They support my son and I'm sure all children that attend fantastically

to meet their developmental and emotional needs continuously. The food and snacks provided are varied and ensure the children eat healthily. They do so many activities and themes each week, it's impressive. Thank you to everyone at Daisy Chain for all they do, keep up the superb effort and work team!

Our son has attended Daisy Chain for over a year and a half now - starting off in the baby room and he will shortly be in the room for the oldest kids. He really enjoys it at Daisy Chain, the staff are excellent and it has a home from home feel to it. We feel very lucky to have found the nursery.

Overall Experience

My little boy started at Daisy Chain in September in the baby room. All of the staff have been very welcoming and communication is really good. They have build a good relationship with him already and he is really happy there. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly he settled in and amazed already

by his progress. They have been really accommodating with dietary needs. It's a lovely sized nursery, not too big so very calm - almost home like. Would 100% recommend. We are so happy with our choice.

Fairlands Day Nursery

Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery for our 14 month old.
He started at 11 months, and we were apprehensive about the transition, as I am sure many parents are. However, the team at Fairlands Day Nursery have been fantastic with our little one, and with us! He absolutely loves his days

at nursery and always seems to have done lots of fun activities. The staff are great at sharing these both on the app used, and at the end of each day.
I would not hesitate to recommend Fairlands to any one, and cannot thank them enough for providing such a wonderful environment for the children.

Overall Experience

Fairlands is an amazing place for your little ones to grow. From the outstanding facilities, outdoor space, range of activities, catering are second to none but what makes them really special are the staff. Everyone from management, room leaders and support staff are caring, thoughtful, knowledgeable

and support your child to grow into a well-mannered young people. I feel my children are challenged to stretch their abilities but in a supportive environment allowing them to flourish. I could not think of a better place to trust to look after my children.

Really lovely nursery, had our daughter here since 11 months old and the staff are warm, supportive and welcoming. The activities they offer are lightly structured at her age group 1.5yo and really fun for her, with lots of outdoor play in their various fields/wood/yard. They provide active information

via the app and also don't mind when you check in. The meals here are very good and varied and have had no issues catering to her allergies. Would definitely recommend this nursery.

Fairlands Day Nursery
from Rebecca H (Mother of Child) published on 6 January 2025

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My child started at Fairlands Day Nursery at around 7 months old. The staff focused on getting to know her and us, building positive relationships with her and helping her to have fun whilst at nursery. She settled quickly and was soon excited to see familiar staff open the door in the mornings. Nursery

staff always have safeguarding in mind and use the app alongside phone calls to track any bumps or bruises, my little one learnt to walk over this period, so we had a few little falls that may have happened or that they have noticed. Staff managed our little one's dairy intolerance very well and supported us whilst we completed the dairy ladder with her. She has now moved up into The Hatchery and is 16 months old. Her transition was well planned and paced at her speed. We are so grateful to her Key Worker in The Nest for such a great start.
We LOVE the outdoor space, Forest School trained practitioners and warm, kind and friendly approach of ALL staff. Highly recommended.

I cannot speak highly enough of Fairlands. They are absolutely fabulous. The staff are brilliant, not only at engaging with the kids but getting them interested in the world. Our son has come home knowing about trees, mushrooms and the seasons. He is happy and cared about.
We had a safeguarding issue

(nobody's fault!) and the safeguarding procedures were superb. I am a social worker and was so impressed with everything they did, and how they communicated.
It is, genuinely, the best nursery we have had anything to do with, and I would recommend it to anyone!

Overall Experience

I cannot fault this nursery. So impressed with the key staff who are the children's main points of contact, the friendly, responsive management team, the sensible menus (nutritious yet not too fancy) that appeal to a fussy eater, the creative activities, the fantastic large garden, the personal approach

to (and knowledge of) each child, the ability to ask advice at any time when struggling (as first-time parents) with reduced eating or potty training for example. The communication is excellent which was really reassuring when I was anxious about first leaving our child at nursery. Handovers between key staff when our child moved up the groups was really detailed. Our child starts school next Sept and Daisy Chain is providing more structured days and teaching her the skills she'll need. Whilst visiting schools to decide where to send her, two schools commented that they tend to get a number of children from Daisy Chain and how well they are set up to begin Reception.
