We are so happy with Budbrooke House preschool for our little boy. Right from his first visit before transitioning from baby nursery, we have been made to feel so supported and welcome. Interaction with all the staff has been really positive - both in terms of day-to-day updates and hearing about overall
progress. We appreciate always being greeted by a smiley face and caring attitude. Such a fantastic wide range of activities every day, the creativity is impressive! With plenty of scope for the children to learn to follow instructions, play with their peers and reflect their own individual interests.

A fantastic nursery setting! My son absolutely adores everyone there. The myriad daily activities are extremely well thought out to combine the maximum amount of fun with cleverly added ways to learn as they go. I have seen my son blossom from a quite grumpy about it child, to one who thoroughly enjoys
his day, chats all the way home and gets so much out of it. His learning and comprehension has improved so much since starting in May. The nursery staff go above and beyond every single day to engage each child, offering them their time and attention and this can be seen in bucket loads by the amount of happy, smiling children bounding out to their parents each night. The app is very well received in our house, we love seeing what he gets up to. Thank you to all the staff who take time to input the children and their day. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery setting. A happy, happy place. My only regret is that I did not find them when my first child was young enough to go!

Budbrooke House has been the best place for my grandson. He has blossomed since he began and absolutely loves the place and all the staff. He says he has so much fun. His language, already very good has come on amazingly. His number work and letter work is improving all the time. The food he eats is
wonderful and has expanded his diet! He loves nursery, we love the nursery.

Lovely place and friendly staff. They do lots of activities every day, which is helping my son to learn a lot.
He was a shy kid when he started, but now is much confident. Also, the transition at the beginning when he started at baby nursery was great, from not seeing any people at all from just us
three(during covid), to spending time with lots of new people, staff have helped/cared a lot. Highly recommended.

Budbrooke House Preschool has been a big part of my little girl's development. She has gone from a shy pre schooler, reluctant to go through the front door, to a confident little pre schooler, excited to see her friends.
The staff helped her settle in brilliantly and also helped to alleviate some of
my worries surrounding her transitioning from baby nursery to preschool. The staff are welcoming and friendly and her keyworker has been the same since she started, which I find reassuring. I would recommend this preschool to other parents/ guardians.

My daughter is very happy there. The transition between nursery and preschool was so smooth that she is happy every day. After a few weeks of attending preschool, I can notice she learns many new things. She talks more, shows interest in things she didn't before, already has friends there. Highly recommend.

From the moment my little boy started preschool at Budbrooke it has been absolutely exceptional! He absolutely loves going, so much so he asks if he's going on a Saturday! The way the day is structured really works for him and gives him the opportunity to make his own decisions. He has developed significantly
in all areas since starting, every day I notice changes which is really quite incredible!
The staff are wonderful and create a real personable bond with the children! Putting your child in the care of people every day while you're working is really quite scary so it was super important to me we made the right choice as it was going to be critical to his start into the education system, it would affect how he views the experience and I can honestly say it has been truly perfect! They have given him the best possible start! Every day is fun, varied and educational! We will be super sad to leave when he starts school in September but he will remember his time at Budbrooke forever!

My child enjoys nursery tremendously and her development has been aided massively by the care and efforts of the staff.

This is a fantastic preschool and I can't recommend more highly! My child is very happy here and has developed significantly in all skills. Although English is not her first language, her progress was remarkable due to the excellent support. She has settled very quickly and well, being encouraged by
lovely staff, who are both caring and knowledgeable. The staff form strong bonds with the children and the feel is that of an extended family. They are exceptional in every way, always there with a big smile to greet the children and parents and equally happy to take the time to discuss and assist. Everything from their meals to their daily activities is planned so well. Outstanding facilities for the children, with a great variety of fun activities in a safe environment both indoors and outdoors. Also, during those difficult months, the staff has made an incredible effort to offer the best care for the children and support for the families. I am thankful to each member of staff for their hard work and dedication.

Budbrooke's team is always so pleasant to liaise with, whilst their absolutely brilliant child development app' provides parents with a much appreciated and detailed outline of what our kiddies have been getting up to on a daily basis. It's so useful to know what activities have been undertaken as
they can be incorporated into topics of discussion after pick-ups. I know our little boy loves his time at Budbrooke, so there's little else you could ask for.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Because of Covid, we found ourselves in the extraordinary position of having to find a new nursery for our newly turned three year old - an extremely hard feat considering how much we adored our old nursery. So I was delighted to find Budbrooke House, a place that shared our ethos of free flow play,
mixing of age groups and an outside classroom. Although we only started last month, Jan '21, we have been thoroughly impressed by the staff's dedication and support - they really seem to know our child well and take genuine pleasure in his achievements. Above all, if you are looking for a nursery that isn't part of a corporate franchise, where your child is stuck in a room for much of the day with structured activities, then this is the place for you.

Reply from Syd Hemming, Accounts & Admin at Budbrooke House Children's Nursery - Preschool

Firstly thank you Nurinder for your kind words about our Preschool. It's been lovely to welcome your family to ours.
Our team work hard to get to know each child and their individual personalities and traits. We endeavour to develop activities that will suit their individual needs. Our ethos, although difficult when separated due to covid restrictions, will always be the same. We will never understand how being stuck in one room (like all of the corporate nurseries) helps a child flourish.
Thanks again for taking the time to leave us your feedback.

Our 3-year-old son transferred to Budbrooke Children’s Nursery in September 2020. He was a shy boy, lacked confidence around other children (despite attending nursery full time from the age of 9 months old), and would cry on route to his old nursery. Within days we noticed a huge difference. Our beautiful
boy was beaming with joy upon arrival to Budbrooke, his confidence rocketed, as did his want to learn. We cannot thank all those that work at Budbrooke enough for their constant love and support. They truly are like a home from home for the children. Thank you so much.

Since my grandson has been at this nursery I can’t believe how he’s grown in all areas, his speech, interaction with others, confidence etc, I could go on! The staff are marvellous and treat the little ones as individuals, not just numbers which is imperative as we all rely on this to enable them to
grow into their own little characters and he had certainly flourished and it’s a joy to see.

This nursery is outstanding and both my children have loved going here. The staff are wonderful and feel like an extended family. The children have a huge variety of activities available to them throughout the day and the outside space is incredible. Everything your child does is posted on an app which
is great for when your children get a bit older and can talk you through their day when they get home. The food is freshly prepared and they serve really interesting and nutritious meals, things I wouldn’t have time to prepare at home after work. The preschool also prepares them so well for school that my eldest child adjusted to school life really well. Your child will thrive here.

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.
