I cannot thank the staff at Brambley Tots enough for how they care and look after my daughter. I was (as like most parents) nervous about how she would transition into nursery, but the staff there made it so smooth and catered for her needs excellently. The building itself is very well maintained, the
food is excellent, the app updates are fantastic, and the activities provided are excellent. I know every day that my daughter is happy to go there. Really the best place for her away from home.

The staff at Brambley Tots Day Nursery are thorough and comprehensive in helping my daughter develop into the best she can be and I am ever grateful for their efforts and input. They take a proactive approach to her overall development and it is reviewed periodically, especially with her SEND allocations
and the partnerships involved. I thank you all.
My personal opinion on facilities is that the main entrance area would benefit from the installation of a canopy/shelter, to accommodate for heavy rain or hot weather when parents are dropping off and collecting their children. Whilst I appreciate this requires funding, I'm sure a petition could be generated and potentially the funds to support this.

We highly appreciate you taking the time to write a review, it reaffirms the hard work we put in every day.
Enjoy the rest of your day!

This nursery is excellent. My son has developed so much since starting with the baby room team and we could not be happier with the care. The activities are very imaginative and the children go on outings which is just lovely.

Brambley Tots Day Nursery has exceeded all of my expectations. My little one loves going to nursery, asks to go on days he doesn’t attend and simply loves it. The staff were so kind and caring at the beginning when it was new and a little daunting. All the staff are amazing and the activities are so
thoughtful and fun! I also feel that my son is able to choose what to do with his time there with no pressure/expectations upon him, so is super happy there. The communication has always been good, but recently I have felt better informed about news and updates, which is really appreciated. The environment created by the team is so welcoming and I feel that when my little one gets dropped off he will have the best time!

Reply from Rosa Merlos Sanchez, Nursery Manager at Brambley Tots Day Nursery

Thank you for taking the time to write a review, your kind words will be passed on to our team. This will reaffirm the hard work they put in every day. We are thrilled to hear you have had such a positive experience at our nursery, and we thank you for trusting us with the care of your boy.
Have a nice day!

We’ve been with Brambley Tots Day Nursery for almost a year and the care from the baby room into Hatchlings has been amazing.
We’ve had a few different key workers purely because other children needed some extra attention, however, my daughter connects with all of the team so it’s not a problem.
It’s
my favourite part of the day dropping off my daughter into such a welcoming, happy environment. She runs in, goes to her favourite rocking horse for a quick play before breakfast with her friends and I can tell she loves her keyworkers. The team have got such a great energy together it’s contagious, even I come away smiling!
Such a great atmosphere and I know she is learning so much as she comes back from nursery super chatty.

My son has attended Brambley Tots Day Nursery since April 2021 and we have both had such a positive experience since he started. The staff have been very active in ensuring that as parents we feel included in our son's development and learning. We get to have regular Early Years Foundation Stage observations
and parent's evenings as well as day to day updates. Seeing my son grow into a chatty and happy boy is a credit to the team's work.

Incredibly friendly and caring team in the goslings room. They are amazing with our twins, treat them as individuals and cater for allergies. Activities are always exciting and we are kept informed, with a lovely detailed daily report and photos. The office team are lovely and knows everyone’s names.
Can’t fault them!

My daughter has been attending Brambley Tots Nursery for a year now and she loves it. The staff at Brambley Tots are always so warm and welcoming. My daughter has learnt so much from nursery and is always talking about the fun activities she has done. Also, has a brilliant app, where you can see what
activities my child has done during the day. I’m so glad I found Brambley Tots and I shall be sending my second child In the near future.

I’ve been so happy with the service and care Brambley Tots has provided to my son. As a first time mum, sending my child to nursery was so daunting. However, they made the transition as seamless as possible. My son happily walks into nursery and always comes home happy too. The baby staff have been
amazing and the setting is great too. I would highly recommend this nursery. Special thanks to two members of staff specifically, who have really helped my son (and us as parents), to feel happy, secure and supported.

The staff in the gosling room, especially one member of staff in particular, are great. My daughter loves coming to nursery and walks in on her own each day. Her talking has come on a lot since she has been at nursery and she loves singing and looking at books. I love all the pictures I get sent, of
activities and outings the team do with the children.

Brambley Tots, provide a wonderful stimulating environment for our toddler. He loves going and playing in the garden. The staff are so good with helping the children develop their independence. One of the senior early years practitioners, is amazing. She always greets the children with enthusiasm and
excitement, but makes sure they understand the rules. Our toddler absolutely loves her. He also loves doing paintings and activities with two other members of staff in particular. The team have helped the children with their teeth brushing, with their numbers and letters and importantly for us, they develop the joy of reading in the children.

Staff at Brambley Tots have been fantastic with both my children, who have attended here. My first son had troubles with his ADHD and autism and the staff at Brambley tots were 110% supportive, helpful and amazing with both my son and I. My second son who currently attends, has had bowel issues since
birth and the team in his room are beyond understanding and helpful during our 'bad times'. Both my boys love their time there and ill be sending my third son here in the future.
Certain members of staff, in particular, have been a huge part of my little boy's life. He is so excited each morning to go in and start a new adventure with you all.

My son has attended Brambley Tots since he was 16 months old and loves attending here. He has made lots of special bonds with his key workers and the other staff. He has gained lots of confidence since starting and I feel that the staff give lots of encouragement and praise. The staff in his room are
very knowledgeable about his likes, dislikes and interests and use these to help work on his next steps.

Both our children have spent their early years being taken care of by the staff at Brambley Tots. It really does feel like a home away from home which was important to me. They love the staff. They learn something new every day and take part in so many activities. Their day to daycare is so clearly
well thought out and they are always smiling at the end of the day.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.914)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.914) out of 10 for Brambley Tots Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 5 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.983 for Brambley Tots Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (58 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.983

  • b) 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 3.931 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brambley Tots Day Nursery is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 = 3.5

    • ii) 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 58 number of registered child places is 11.6. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.6 = 0.431

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
