If your child loves being outside then this is the perfect nursery for you. The private grounds include woods where the children can make
campfires, Italian gardens with far-reaching views and lawned areas perfect for the summer. The children get outside twice a day no matter the weather which I think
is very important for their mental and physical health. My daughter started in rabbits when she turned 1 and my new arrival is already on the list to join in 2026. I fully trust the staff at Barley Wood and they work really hard to develop a relationship with you and create a family environment. Invoices are easy to read and questions are answered promptly. Barley Wood use the app where you can view your child's meals and sleep and photos are taken throughout the week to show you what your child has been doing. Breastfeeding is supported and the baby room works with you to help with any weaning, or sleep issues. I love Barley Wood and wouldn't trust my children with anyone else!

Reply from Rebecca Rudge, Nursery Manager at Barley Wood Nursery

Thank you so much for such a lovely review. We are so pleased that you have had such a good experience with your child here. We are very lucky to have such a choice of what to explore each day with our outside areas. I am pleased that you agree that our staff really do some amazing work, working closely with families to develop relationships and support settling with new children. We look forward to welcoming your new arrival next year. Thank you again.

Barley Wood Nursery has a warm welcoming environment. The nursery is set within woodland, allowing this setting to be incorporated into the children's learning as much as possible. The individual needs of the children are well met. I found it to be a safe place for my Granddaughter to be. The staff
are approachable, welcoming and knowledgeable.

I cannot recommend Barley Wood enough. Both my children are currently at Barley Wood and I could not be more happier with the nursery. The setting is second to none, the children play in the woods, explore the Italian gardens, look for big bad Barry (the fish), make a campfire, roll down the hill, and
are out and about in all weathers, even the babies.
My children are so happy there, they have lots of wonderful friends, eat delicious looking food and are looked after with such care and attention.
The staff are amazing: compassionate, kind, fun, patient and fair. They know the children individually and really care about each and every one.
I wish every child could have access to a nursery like Barley Wood.

Reply from Natalie Purkiss, Head of Childcare at Barley Wood Nursery

Thank you so much for this fabulous review. We are so pleased that you have had such a positive experience at Barley Wood with both of your children. We are very proud of the amazing and unique outdoor environment that we have, where children's imaginations are inspired and encouraged. I am so pleased that you agree, our staff are amazing! We believe that every child should have access to high-quality education and they put so much effort into caring and nurturing the children. Thank you again.

This nursery is absolutely incredible with the most amazing surroundings and staff which, combined, create the most incredible environment for your child to thrive in. From the kitchen staff to the team and the management, they are all entirely focused

I would happily recommend this nursery to all parents and I'm so grateful for everything they've done for my daughter over the last two and a half years. Wishing the deputy manager and the team continued success and thank you for everything.

My daughter started nursery two months ago and I was very nervous but the staff were very reassuring and kept me updated through the day with how she was doing. Whilst she doesn't like drop-off (not many babies do) I can tell that she loves in when she is there! I have been sent photos of her full of
smiles and having fun. The staff always give me an update when I collect her as to how she has been during the day and the things they have done which is so nice to hear. She is developing so well since being there and seeing other kids moving around and playing and is picking up a lot from that. They are a great nursery, staff are amazing and great value for money. I couldn't be happier and would always recommend them.

Reply from Natalie Purkiss, Head of Childcare at Barley Wood Nursery

Thank you very much for taking the time to write such a lovely review. I am so pleased to hear what a positive experience you and your daughter are having at Barley Wood. As you say, she does love it when she is with us. I am glad that you find the updates reassuring. We want parents to feel confident that their children are safe, happy and learning. The staff work hard to ensure the setting is a nurturing yet exciting environment for the children. Best wishes, Natalie.

I honestly can't imagine a better nursery. The location, facilities, access to variety of outdoors and then the staff. I think it's rare in life to meet people who are so clearly spending their days doing something that they were meant to do. They do it with skill and expertise but also with such care
and love.
Can't rate it all highly enough!

Our little boy started at 11 months old and we've been so happy with his experience. The staff are kind, caring, take a genuine interest in each child and as a result, form genuine bonds with them. The outdoor space is great and they spend a lot of time enjoying it through all the seasons - which is
what we were looking for in a nursery for him. We are so happy with Barley Wood Nursery, I would fully recommend it.

My son has been attending Barley Wood Nursery since February 2024 and he loves it! They get the children outside twice a day to explore the vast grounds and they do lots of fun and varied activities, indoors and out, such as arts and crafts, baby yoga, soft play and water play. The staff are all very
friendly and take time to give feedback at the end of every session. I would strongly recommend this nursery.

I have had three children attend this nursery and it is, by far, the best.
So much so, I have moved since they had started going and I still commute to this nursery. It is worth the time in the morning to ensure my girls have the best early years development and experience.
They go outside, rain
or shine, and they do lots of activities to encourage skills which I wouldn't have the opportunity to do at home. They make campfires and cook things for snack time.
The girls look forward to going and often speak about their time at nursery with such excitement. They also have a clever app which they upload pictures of your child playing. They also inform you of what they have eaten that day along with other important information.
The staff are lovely and make an effort to know you and your family so they can support your children the best.
I wouldn't send my children anywhere else!

My 2 daughters attend Barley Wood. One is about the leave for school and has had a very happy time in the 2+ years she’s been at nursery. The staff are so caring, nurturing and treat the children with huge respect and you can see that both children and staff really care for each other and have fun together,
while also learning at the same time. The atmosphere at the nursery is great and the outdoor space is very special - allowing the children to explore the vast gardens and woodlands daily.
My youngest has also settled in well since she started 6 months ago. Again the staff in the babies room really do care about all the kids and we really feel lucky to have a trusted place for them to spend their time. My youngest loves her keyworker and the other staff in her room and goes in with a big smile every day.

Barley Wood has been wonderful for our son. He transferred from another setting when we moved, and we were impressed by how warm, flexible and creative the whole team are. Our son has gained hugely in confidence and always surprises us with things he has learnt. They use songs and lots of outdoor experiences
to subtly teach both curriculum and life skills. Our son has used breathing techniques they have taught when upset and guided his sister using their conflict resolution skills. Thoroughly recommend this lovely and supportive nursery.

Barley Wood Nursery is such a wonderful nursery and we feel incredibly lucky to have been part of the Barley Wood family since 2019! Our eldest child started in September 2019 and will leave this year for school. He has had the most well-rounded, nurturing, supportive, creative and explorative environment
around him in which to flourish. Thanks to the true passion, care and dedication of the fantastic team at Barley Wood, he has developed a deep love of learning about every aspect of the world around him and grown an emotional understanding and resilience to build rock solid friendships. Our youngest child will be at Barley Wood for another 2 years and we are so excited for her to continue to enjoy the beautiful grounds around the nursery, to attend the nursery fairs, to play a part in the nursery nativity and to thrive every day with the energy, love and compassion shown to her by the team. Thank you, Barley Wood Nursery for everything you do!

My little one loves going to Barley Wood Nursery and he always comes home tired and happy. The building is a bit tired and ramshackle, but it certainly has character. I love the fact that they are always outside, getting muddy and playing in the woods. The staff are lovely and apparently my 2-year-old
eats vegetables whilst there as well, which is some sort of miracle.
My 3 Star answers reflect the fact I have never actually been into the nursery so have no idea about cleanliness, or ICT!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.718)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.718) out of 10 for Barley Wood Nursery 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 14 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 4.940 for Barley Wood Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (157 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.94

  • 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 4.778 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barley Wood Nursery is based on 14 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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.778

  • 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.
