  • Oldfield Road Nursery, Bath
Oldfield Road Nursery is set in a spectacular Grade II listed Georgian building, granting an inspiring backdrop for creativity, imagination and discovery.

Each of the play spaces has large bay windows and high ceilings, so they feel bright and airy. In each room, there is a range of areas and resources for children to explore, with an emphasis on open-ended and authentic resources.

Outside is a wonderful garden. There is a beautiful yurt, which is used as an art space and outdoor classroom, There is also a large sand pit, water trays, a treehouse, a willow den, a mud kitchen and more! The garden is home to chickens and guinea pigs which the children help to care for, teaching them about empathy, responsibility and the natural world.

Located close to Bath city centre, Oldfield Road Nursery is a great base for exploring the wonderful local community. There are daily outings to explore woodlands, parks, theatres and more. These trips help the children to practice their social skills, build their confidence in the wider world and develop a sense of belonging. They also help children to develop safety awareness while out and about.

Both of my girls have now moved through the rooms at Oldfield Road, starting in the baby room and leaving to start school.
They have thrived in such a nurturing environment and have had such lovely bonds with all of the staff that they have spent time with.
They come home with huge smiles, and I
know that I don’t ever need to worry as they are always safe. They have navigated allergies with ease, which is not an easy job! We would 100% recommend Oldfield Road to anyone looking for childcare!

Over the past year, we have seen our daughter develop and grow into a sparkly and confident little girl. The time spent at Oldfield Road Nursery has undoubtedly contributed to her development, and we can happily recommend the venue and hard-working staff to others.

We love Oldfield Road Nursery. Our daughter feels so happy and supported by all the staff here. The setting is charming and homely, and the children are always exploring an array of equipment and materials. The outside space is fantastic, and regular trips out keep the children's imaginations running
wild! A brilliant setting for the early years.

I would thoroughly recommend this nursery. Our little girl has been there from the age of 9months to 14months. The staff all seem really lovely and they care for our babys needs individually even though she is part of a group. It feels like she has so much fun at nursery and the inside facilities and
garden are wonderful. Nursery are really inventive with their activities and outings - for example she has met birds of prey and visited the fire station as well as regular visits to the park and local farm. There is a daily video of all of the babies and they update the app so you can know your baby is well when you are at work. I feel very grateful that she has a place there.

When I first viewed Oldfield Road Nursery as a potential nursery for my son, I instantly knew it was the one! A very warm welcome and I loved the different areas of the rooms, so much for them to do from reading books to the sensory room and I knew the large garden with mud kitchen and animals would
be a hit!
My son started in the baby room and is now in one of the toddler rooms, all of the staff have been so caring, kind and all so well-liked by all of the children that go there. My son asks to go to nursery most days and loves seeing his friends.
We feel totally at ease with sending him there and I feel relaxed in the knowledge that he is in safe hands and most importantly having fun!

The nursery building itself is beautiful, it feels like I am leaving my little boy in someone’s home. I viewed various nurseries in the area and knew as soon as I stepped through the door that he would love it. The office staff are friendly and welcoming, they know each child by name and make it extremely
easy for both me and him to leave. The key workers are equally friendly and have genuine care for the children they look after. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for someone with a personal touch.

My son has been going since he was 4 months old and can't recommend it enough.
My son plays on my heartstrings when leaving but I know he is in the best possible hands.
The communication is great between staff members and parents I get sent pictures and videos.

Our daughter has been attending since September last year, the staff were amazing with settling her in they have made her feel so comfortable and she loves attending, I often have to drag her away at the end of the day. They are very efficient and prompt in answering any queries and very thorough with
feedback and hand over at the end of the day.
The facilities are excellent and they do lots of activities with the children at no extra cost such as ballet, Rugby Tots, yoga and educational trips out.
They are very passionate at what they do which means the children benefit greatly. We have noticed our daughter progress as she is very happy with her surroundings.
I like that they have a chef on site cooking nutritious meals with organic produce our daughter comments on the meals and ears really well.
I can't recommend this nursery highly enough.

My daughter (19 months), has settled so well into the setting and can't wait to go! All the staff are friendly, approachable, kind and caring. They offer a wide range of activities including baby ballet, visiting the local care home, baby yoga and more.


All my questions (I had a lot!) were answered

promptly and efficiently. The transition of settling in was excellent and I feel the staff really took the time to get to know my child. She is always happy when I arrive to collect her and I have to persuade her to come home as she doesn't want to leave! Returning to work has been made so much easier knowing she is having a great time and is surrounded by loving, nurturing staff.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.100)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.100) out of 10 for Oldfield Road 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Oldfield Road Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.1 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oldfield Road Nursery is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.1

  • 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.
