They take pride in looking after all of the children, and they make sure your child's needs and best interests are put first. I highly recommend this

We are so happy with Redbrick Nursery, the staff absolutely make the experience for my daughter. They are so kind, genuine and honestly have the children's best interests at heart!

A great variety of activities for the children too!

The care provided by the staff at Red Brick Day Nursery is truly exceptional. Every staff member knows each child by name and consistently shows genuine warmth and care. They always seem genuinely happy to welcome my little one when I drop him off, which reassures me deeply.


I can't imagine any other

nursery making me feel as confident and at ease, knowing my child is in such safe, nurturing hands. The staff never make me feel like my child is a burden or difficult to manage. Instead, they maintain a relaxed, warm, and caring environment that really makes the nursery stand out.


The staff truly are what make Red Brick Day Nursery so special!


Reply from Mandy Coker, Manager at The Red Brick Day Nursery - Welford Road

Thank you for your lovely review, we are so please that your child is thriving in our care, it is a pleasure caring for him and has been lovely to see how well he has settled into the setting and enjoying all the activities provided.

My child has recently started at Red Brick Day Nursery and I am really pleased with how it is going. From the offset, staff have been really welcoming and helpful when signing up and sorting paperwork. My daughter has settled in very quickly and I like the interaction between staff and parents at pick-up
time. Having gone to another nursery previously, I am given more information about her day at pick-up than I ever have. I could not fault our experience so far.

As first-time parents the staff at Redbrick Nursery have been amazing, not only have they taken the time to help settle in our son but also make us feel supported as parents. It has only been a few months but we can see a difference already in how well he is doing there. We would highly recommend anyone

A nursery that truly cares. When we first joined, I had some initial concerns about the care my 2-year-old daughter was receiving. However, I was positively surprised by how supportive and understanding the management team was. They took my feedback seriously, handled the situation with care, and ensured
everything was resolved promptly and professionally. Since then, our experience has been fantastic. My daughter now loves attending the nursery and has truly thrived. The staff are nurturing, attentive, and committed to creating a positive environment where children can grow and enjoy themselves. It's been heartwarming to see her confidence blossom as she makes friends and participates in the wonderful activities they offer. The nursery's communication and dedication have given me complete peace of mind. I'm so grateful for their attentiveness and care and would highly recommend Red Brick Day Nursery to any parent seeking a supportive, high-quality childcare setting.

Fantastic nursery. Great communication. Daily updates and our son is developing so much it's incredible. He walks in in the morning and doesn't look back which shows me he feels safe and enjoys it. We are thrilled with their service and every single member of staff goes above and beyond to help, daily!
They respect our choices with food habits and really help build on what we are currently working on at home with him. Can't thank them enough.

This is not just a nursery, it's more than that, it's a continuity of a family. My daughter is part of this family for more than 12 months and we've seen so much improvement in behaviour, language, learning, socialisation and much more. The children are doing lots of activities, reading, games. The
staff are more than welcome and happy to help you, every day coming with updates. They are approaching every child as they demand. Best nursery I could think of for my daughters, as my other daughter will attend this nurturing place soon.

I’ve been using this nursery for around 5 years for my children, my son who started there at around 1 and a half-2 years old who left for school 3 years ago and now my daughter who has been going for over 2 years. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough, they really accommodate your childcare needs
and really care about the children they look after and take such an interest in them. My children have both come on leaps and bounds since they both started this nursery as the staff are so interactive with them and make the effort to teach as well as play with the children. My daughter who is currently there absolutely adores all of the staff and has made lovely friendships there. My son also made lasting friendships there who he went on to primary school with. Thank you to all the Redbrick Team!

My son loves going to nursery and he has come on leaps and bounds since being here. I can speak to the staff about any issues I’m having at home and they are so supportive.
My son is always doing fun activities and comes out of nursery smiling every day. I couldn’t have picked a better nursery and would 100% recommend The Red Brick Day Nursery to any parent.

My daughter has attended Red Brick Day Nursery for the past two years or so and I am more than happy with all aspects here. Staff have gone over and above to accommodate any requirements for us and her progress and development have come on so much since she has been here. Not only would her key workers
give a breakdown of what she's eaten and been doing/learning each day, but it was clear through their care and attention that they came to know her character and personality well which not only made her feel welcome and settled it has also given us as parents peace of mind that our child is in good and safe hands in our absence. I would highly recommend Red Brick Day Nursery for parents looking for childcare.

Friendly atmosphere very engaging for children. Always make good use of their premises with fun interactive activities for the children. The staff are always enthusiastic about the children and their development. It's a nurturing environment as it should be and they do not hold back on play time either.
Food is always something different and they take care to avoid certain foods that my child cannot consume. The entire team is fantastic taking time to listen, talk and understand. Like a home away from home.

Both of my children have attended Redbrick and it's been amazing. The staff are amazing at communicating with you about your child and their day, they are so friendly and welcoming and you can see each of them have a care and passion for what they do. The manager has been so supportive and always tried
to accommodate me with childcare when I needed it. I always recommend them to friends who have actually put their children into the nursery and they always say it was the best decision they made. Thank you all

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.952)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.952) out of 10 for The Red Brick Day Nursery - Welford Road 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.952 for The Red Brick Day Nursery - Welford Road is calculated as follows: ( (298 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 312 Ratings = 4.952

  • 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 The Red Brick Day Nursery - Welford Road is based on 26 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8, which has been reached with 26 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.
