Our two children have been at Budbrooke baby nursery and preschool for over three years now. Preschool is a great environment - great carers, lots of activities, lovely friends environment, full of fun and diverse activities, including French! We really love how caring and engaging everyone is at preschool
and how much they keep parents involved when needed. Highly recommended!

Our child only started at Budbrooke in January but even after just a few months we have seen a huge difference in him. He's happy and chatty when he comes out and can talk about all of the things he's been doing that day. The staff are friendly, smiley and warm. I'm happy to leave my child with them
knowing they will look after him. They relay lots of information about what they've been up to and how they've eaten. Great use of the app that updates me with things going on that day.
There is always a great variety of activities each day and a different theme each week. I think it's a wonderful preschool and my little boy loves going, which is all a parent could ask for.

My daughter has been attending the pre school for about a year now and she really enjoys it. She has developed so well in all areas during her time there and we are so impressed with the staff and their approach to learning with the children. The pre school has a real warm family feel and encourages
independence, creativity and curiousity in the children and prepares them for school in a gentle way that makes them excited and confident about their next step. Theres an inclusive and open atmosphere and my daughter has formed some lovely friendships. The food is brilliant and my daughter eats very well there. The communication with parents is always very clear and positive and any queries are dealt with quickly and compassionately. They do a range of extracurricular activities which the children really enjoy. It's certainly a place for children to thrive, build great bonds with both staff and other children and develop a passion for learning.

Budbrooke preschool provides a nurturing environment that allows children to flourish. It develops early academic skills well, enabling children to then transition into primary school easily, which helped easy any parental stress that I could have had.
Staff really embrace each child's individualism,
and are always friendly, informative and caring.
They really go above and beyond to ensure the children enjoy their time at preschool. I have seen both my children grow into curious, polite and forward thinking young people whilst under their care.

Budbrooke House Children's Nursery - Preschool is a great environment for children who have outgrown baby nursery and getting ready for school.
Our son has been at preschool for over a year and was previously at Budbrooke Nursery.
The team are friendly and they really get to know each of the children.
It is a great comfort knowing that my son feels safe and secure in their presence.
We get regular updates on activities and meals throughout the day on the app. There always is a mix of activities and outdoor play when the weather allows.
We feel that our son is well prepared to join school next year and this is thanks to the team at Budbrooke.

Could not wish for a better place to take care of the most important person in my life.
I leave her every day and I know that she is looked after in the best way. The love and care provided for my daughter is beyond words. She can grow and nourish in a warm environment. A second home from home.
Thank
you, it means the world to know that she is well and loved when she is away from me.

My 2nd child has just moved up from the baby nursery to the preschool so this is my 2nd time with this nursery and I couldn’t recommend them more! The staff are all wonderful. Resources are fantastic and my children come on leaps and bounds here. Couldn’t be more grateful for everything they do.

I feel like my boy is very well looked after. He's a sensitive soul who likes being at home, but the staff are very welcoming and accommodating, ensuring that he thrives in the nursery environment, and he always comes home with happy stories about his day. The staff seem to know him well and are very
warm and friendly.

My son has attended the preschool since January 2023, within the first two weeks I noticed positive changes in his development. He was not able to string a sentence together when he started, but within a few months he was able to speak sentences and you could understand a lot more of what he was saying.
The care and attention from the staff have been top-notch! They give detailed handovers at the end of the day and are happy to help with any queries you have. The information the staff upload onto the app is very descriptive and is always up to date so you can track your child's meals, activities, sleeps etc. I am very impressed with the preschool and would 100% recommend this setting to family and friends.

My daughter is thriving at Budbrooke House Children's Nursery and she has grown in confidence during her time here. The learning curve between nursery and preschool has been significant and she has learnt and developed so much.
The staff really take time to understand each child as an individual and
create a fun and nurturing environment.
Definitely happy with my choice!

I can't rate this nursery and preschool highly enough! The staff are absolutely wonderful and they have a high staff retention rate. Both my children have attended over the last 5 years and I have always felt like they were safe and cared for. They spend loads of time outdoors (every day, all weathers)
and inside have loads of fun learning activities. The feedback is great and if there's ever a problem they're so helpful and accommodating. Genuinely a nice caring place for children to be.

I’ve watched my son grow and learn how to make connections. The love he receives from the staff is nothing short of amazing.
It is a very supportive nursery and always works with you to ensure you support the growth and development of your child. The way the nursery is run gives the children a comfortable
and homely place to spend their days and I love how family-oriented it is.

It is a great nursery and preschool setting. Both my children have attended separately over a period of 7 years and have thoroughly enjoyed their time there. The children undertake many activities and are fully prepared for school, as well as extra topics like French lessons. The staff are great and
we have always had great key workers; my daughter's keyworker at present is nothing short of amazing. The extended childcare hours are great for working families and I would highly recommend Budbrooke to anyone.

Budbrooke House Preschool is an exceptional community of caring professionals. My daughter enjoys going and it is clear that she is always learning new skills as well as eating all the healthy food they offer. The Blossom app, that they regularly update through the day, shows off all of the varied activities
they provide, I am constantly impressed with how many different activities they have! It is clear that they know my daughter well from what they say at handovers, they listen to any information I give at the door and take any relevant action. I always have peace of mind dropping my daughter off as I know she’ll have a great day!

Absolutely personal experience with the staff when it comes to my child and clearly other children from my daily observation. Amazingly capable of making a parent and child feel like they are "the special one". The best person to give an honest review is the actual child at the nursery based on their
conduct and willingness to attend school and in my child's case the little person enjoys attending nursery which to me is the most important indication. Always have peace of mind dropping off my child every morning and looking forward to seeing what new activities they did towards character building. No regrets at this moment.

Outstanding setting with lovely, kind, friendly and trusting staff. My little one (who joined when 1 year old) really enjoys it, has learnt a lot and has made many friends along the way. My child always talks about their day and how much fun they have had. I can see how much more independent my child
has become since joining the setting, which I know will help when they start primary school.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.931)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.931) out of 10 for Budbrooke House Children's Nursery - Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.931 for Budbrooke House Children's Nursery - Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (191 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.931

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Budbrooke House Children's Nursery - Preschool is based on 17 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, which has been reached with 17 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
