Having known the team (room based, office and kitchen) for years now I can confidently say they are consistently providing excellent care, nutrition and play-based learning for all children who attend. They are family and child-orientated, always smiling and providing a positive atmosphere.
Our children
are the delightful little poppets they are because Brambley Tots Day Nursery team have played a part in their lives.

We were very pleased with the care and love our daughter received during her time at Brambley Tots Day Nursery. Staff were always as happy to see her as she was to see them. Communication from staff and management was always at a high standard. They always went above and beyond to make her time so enjoyable.

Over the past twelve months I’m extremely grateful for everything Brambley Tots Day Nursery has done for both my children. They’ve been flexible and accommodating through a hard time for everyone. Throughout the pandemic they’ve worked continuously on making sure it is a safe environment but also on
improvements making it a fun, happy and memorable experience. I like the changes such as the sensory area, the preschool garden and daily updates on social media on what fun all the children are having. Having children with dietary requirements, I haven't had to worry about any mishaps. Over the last month in increasing the hours, the staff have been very caring. Nothing is too much trouble.

Having had three children at the nursery, all of whom have flourished and been nurtured from day one, I would not hesitate to recommend Brambley Tots Day Nursery to anyone wanting the best start for their child. The staff focus on each child’s individual needs and are able to offer the children a secure,
friendly and welcoming environment for children, as well as lots of fun and messy activities! Brambley Tots Day Nursery offers a completely personal service and all the staff seem to all know all of the children who are always welcomed with a big smile each day. It really is like a home from home.

My child has been attending Brambley Tots Day Nursery for almost four years now and he absolutely loves it and the staff, who are brilliant. They have worked weekends to work on things like the gardens and the displays in the rooms, to make the spaces as educational and fun as possible. The communication
to the parents over the pandemic was fantastic and we regularly received emails with fun ideas for our children. The food is freshly prepared on site and is always of a a really good quality, somehow they get my child to eat things I would never in a million years be able to serve him at home. My child is fully prepared for school now and that’s all thanks to the teaching at Brambley Tots Day Nursery.

Both of our children attend Brambley Tots Day Nursery and have been with them since 2018.
The staff are professional, caring and the children absolutely adore them. What I love most is that every staff member knows every child’s name and greets them as though they’ve known them for years. It’s a
warm and welcoming environment, you couldn’t ask for better for your children.

Since starting at Brambley Tots Day Nursery my little boy had really started to engage more with other children. The staff at the nursery have been incredibly helpful and engaging with him, helping with his social interaction and getting him more open to playing and socialising with others. Since Covid-19
started we had no real way of having other children around so with the help of the staff this has been very useful. The range of activities that are available for so many different age groups is wonderful and we will definitely be bringing our new arrival, that is due this September to become a part of the family when the time comes. In short, Brambley Tots Day Nursery is full of wonderfully trained and friendly staff who are really engaged with the development of the children they care for.

My granddaughter has been attending Brambley Tots Day Nursery for over two years. She has always enjoyed all aspects of her day. She attends from 8am until 6pm and always enjoys the food provided. She has been attending during the pandemic as her mother is a key worker. She has been very settled and
felt very secure during very uncertain times for all children. They quickly address problems and behaviour in a positive manner. They make regular changes to designated play zones to keep the children engaged and make great use of the outdoor space. The staff are always motivated and positive to go the extra mile for the children. They have worked hard through what must have been a very difficult and uncertain year. They always follow Covid-19 guidelines without alarming the children. A very positive and happy place for the children to thrive and enjoy.

My eldest child spent three years at Brambley Tots Day Nursery and my youngest has been there for just over a year. It is a home away from home with brilliant staff who provide a fantastic level of care. The children do some great activities in the early years and as they progress through to preschool,
they get exposed to all the key skills they need to succeed in school. All the staff know all the children by name and are always welcomed with a smile. A truly lovely establishment full of people who genuinely care for the children they look after.

I first chose Brambley Tots Day Nursery for my son six years ago due to the family feeling it has, the feeling that it's not just a job for the staff. My daughter has now been there three years and absolutely loves it, she bounces in every morning and always looks forward to going.

We have used Brambley Tots Day Nursery for our son and now our daughter. The care we have received is second to none. The staff know all of the children and take a genuine interest in all the children. The food is lovely, nutritious and they cater for dietary requirement and weaning of babies well.
It’s lovely having smaller rooms for the age groups rather than one big room. It really is a home from home setting!

I have had two children attend Brambley Tots, both starting in the baby room. One has now left to attend school and another is in the toddler room. It is a small nursery where I feel the staff really get to know the children and create a 'home-like' experience which is exactly what we were looking for.
They do a range of activities to keep the children occupied and offer plenty of time outside which was important to us. The food is varied and both of my children have eaten well there.
The real strength of this setting is the staff who are friendly, approachable and provide an high-level of personalised care which carries through into the excellent pre-school. They promote independence in a nurturing and supportive environment and make the children feel included and part of the community there.

We have two adopted children at Brambley Tots Day Nursery and ever since the day our eldest son came to visit we knew it was the right choice for us. In fact our son chose by how comfortable he was made to feel in that visit. From that point on the staff continued to show care, love and attention to
our child and us as parents. Lots of communication and an unfailing attention to detail. When our second child came in to our lives there was no question that Brambley Tots would be the right choice again. Even more care and attention given by all staff. We couldn't be happier and we will always recommend Brambley Tots Day Nursery without reservation. Worthy of being rated the top nursery in the UK.

My son who is currently in reception spent three years at Brambley Tots and had an amazing journey throughout. The staff there have been brilliant with him in helping him develop to the confident little man he was before starting his journey in big school. They have worked with him in developing his
strengths and navigated areas where he needed help sensitively while keeping us informed and involved all the way. My youngest is currently attending and I can see the positive effect going there has on him all thanks to the brilliant staff they have!

Both our children attend Brambley Tots Day Nursery and we are very happy with the care they receive. The staff are friendly and welcoming and did a great job settling the kids when they started. The setting has a nice family feel and our kids have always been happy going in the mornings. The menus are
varied and they enjoy eating there. Activities are varied and we are happy with feedback we get on what they get up to. The team have been great through the Covid-19 period and have kept a steady and happy environment.

We have had one child progress through every stage at Brambley Tots Day Nursery and a second that joined at 4 months old and is progressing through their rooms, just turned 2 years old. Every room is completely stage-suitable to meet individual needs. We have felt that our children have benefited completely
by a loving and nurturing environment and have been allowed to flourish and develop themselves in so many ways. Systems and communication from management down is strong and transparent and they are very accommodating. Ultimately both our children are happy there and love the environment. We certainly recommend this setting.

Brambley Tots Day Nursery have always worked above and beyond to ensure the safety of the staff, children and the parents by putting in place essential safety measures.
They have especially worked hard over the past few months when the pandemic has been a lot more challenging for everyone.
The staff
are always so warm, welcoming, happy and friendly and have built amazing bonds with the children which immediately comes across.
This nursery is the only one we viewed when choosing day care for our child, we fell in love with it and the wonderful staff, we are so happy to have provided our child with such an amazing few years here.


We would recommend this wonderful nursery to others.

Both of my children have been looked after at Brambley Tots Day Nursery and I’ve always been so impressed by the care they have received. Their key workers really get to know them and the range of activities they offer definitely contributed to their overall development. I will always recommend the
nursery to anyone wanting a childcare provider and the fact that they offer long days is an added bonus when you’re a working mum.

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.
