We are extremely happy with the nursery and what it has to offer.
Our daughter is flourishing and is exposed to so many new activities including ballet, swimming and music. Every day when I pick her up she tells me she’s had ‘the best day’ so as a parent that’s what you want to hear.
The teachers
are all lovely.
It’s a very nurturing and wholesome environment, where you can see the children get a passion for learning.
They’re surrounded by nature, and the classrooms have a lot of natural light with aesthetically pleasing toys and objects that provide a neutral canvas for them to explore and be creative in their play.


We were conscious to choose a nursery for our daughter that was a gentle, calm and creative space. And we found that at Brookham with the beautiful classrooms, plenty of space to play, books, wooden toys, art supplies and a large outside space with woods they can explore, it just seemed the ideal place to grow and learn and we’re very happy with our decision.

Had a great experience since we started. My son loves it there and the staff are so lovely, welcoming and nurturing. My son gets excited about going to nursery which is a testament to the nursery and how welcome they make him feel. He loves the forest school and music. I highly recommend Brookham Nursery.

Excellent nurturing nursery with fantastic extracurricular activities and facilities such as swimming, music classes, forest school, dance and sport, all from the age of 2 years old. We absolutely love it there!

Brookham is an absolutely lovely nursery. I have had two children go through the nursery and the standard of care has been consistently brilliant throughout. Everything, from the facilities to the activities to the food is so carefully thought through. The staff turnover is really low. Can’t fault
them in any way.

Thank you for your kind review, we are so pleased that your children have enjoyed their time with us.

We moved our son from a local nursery to Brookham Nursery four months ago and we couldn’t be happier. He thoroughly enjoys the structure of 'forest school', ballet and swimming and also loves the free-flow through the rooms. The staff are lovely and he’s clearly very happy. We don’t receive much information
about what he does each day, unlike when he was at our local nursery with photos and write-ups on their app, but it is preparing us, as much as him, for when he starts school in September!

My son joined the nursery when he turned two last year. We couldn't be happier. He has flourished in the smaller classroom setting. The teachers are amazing - so caring. He has recently moved into a brand new classroom which is such a lovely space and a very calming setting. The grounds are beautiful
and there is so much space for them to run around outside. He has a weekly swim lesson which is amazing - we were able to watch them recently and I couldn't believe his confidence in the water. It is a very nurturing environment but they encourage independence and he has grown in confidence. He never has dirty clothes to bring home and always comes back very clean and very happy.

Excellent experience so far. They have really helped my son settle despite him being a bit apprehensive at first. The facilities are excellent and when he was a bit overwhelmed on his first day, they let him go and see his sister in year two. The teachers have been really attentive to him and the activities
they have organised have been first class.

Reply from Lisa Langridge, Marketing at Brookham Nursery

We are so pleased to read about your experience. Our staff always go the extra mile to help children settle in and we're glad to hear that he has enjoyed all the activities on offer.

What lucky kids, Brookham Nursery is amazing! It has incredible facilities and brilliant staff. They cook their own snacks, swim every week and have a huge range of activities to choose from inside the newly built classroom. It is nurturing whilst encouraging confidence and independence.

Reply from Lisa Langridge, Marketing at Brookham Nursery

Swimming and cooking are certainly some of the children's favourite activities!

The nursery is a fantastically nurturing and safe environment where children thrive. Activities often vary but there is also consistency so children have time to adapt to new challenges that keep them stretched academically. The nursery's leadership does a great job to create a stimulating setting for
all children. We feel that our child has had a bespoke journey since she joined almost a year ago. All her needs have been met and communication with her carers has always been easy and straightforward. I could not recommend Brookham Nursery more.

My wife and I are so pleased with the nursery. There's such a happy, calm and nurturing atmosphere. The breadth of opportunities is fantastic; our son gets to take part in swimming, ballet, music, Spanish and forest school. They have a huge amount of space and facilities to run around in, and we love
that there is a big emphasis on the outdoors, as it's where our boy is happiest. The staff are just wonderful, caring and thoughtful; they keep us informed and, most importantly, really get to know the children.

Brookham Nursery has been so welcoming to our son. The staff are friendly and nurturing and have made our son feel settled in a new nursery very quickly. The facilities and access to the outdoors and endless grounds are fantastic. To see the children dropped off and picked up with the biggest smiles
on their faces is just wonderful!

My daughter started Brookham Nursery as soon as she turned 2! From day one, she strolled into the calm and welcoming environment created by the fabulous nursery staff. She has loved every minute and spends the evenings chatting away excitedly about all the wonderful things she experiences - swimming,
ballet, PE, music, art, forest school...the list is endless. The variety of activities offered to the children is outstanding and well thought out for the children at the nursery. We are just thrilled with how happy she is there and can only thank the staff for their caring, ever enthusiastic and experienced approach to nurturing and educating our little one. Thank you!

It was a difficult decision to move both my children across to Brookham Nursery from their original nursery but it turned out to be a brilliant one. They had both had a fabulous grounding and now, here at Brookham Nursery they are developing all those skills further. The outdoor nature of school suits
them beautifully and the access to music, swimming, dance and PE keep them active and creative. They are both super happy to go in every day and come home nicely tired each evening. The staff are friendly, understanding and nurturing; they really know my children. The parent body is equally supportive and friendly. A fabulous choice which we will never regret.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.977)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.977) out of 10 for Brookham 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.977 for Brookham Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (129 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.977

  • 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 Brookham Nursery is based on 11 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 25 number of registered child places is 5, which has been reached with 11 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.
