Fun is an essential ingredient at Berryfields Day Nursery and Preschool where the care and education opportunities for each and every child are as extraordinary as the colleagues who provide them.

The purpose-built nursery provides state of the art learning environments for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years old and a large garden provides daily access to the outdoors for every child.

I am delighted to share my wonderful experience with Berryfields Day Nursery as my son prepares to transition to reception. The supportive staff and their commitment to every child's development, including those with special educational needs, were truly remarkable. The nursery offered a wealth of engaging
activities in a beautiful setting, providing a stimulating environment for learning and exploration. The staff's support for parents, coupled with valuable coping techniques, made a significant difference. Although slightly expensive, the nursery's excellent value for money, easy parking, tasty snack selection, and abundant learning materials were highly impressive. The key workers were amazing, and the friendly management team made the application process seamless.
My son's time here has been nothing short of remarkable, and I am confident that the foundations laid here will contribute to his future success.
Berryfields Day Nursery is a haven where children thrive!

My daughter started at the nursery from the beginning of January and it has just been such a smooth journey. Everyone has been so warm, and my daughter just fits there like never before. I was really antsy as she was in a smaller setting and worried she wouldn't fit in where there are a lot more kids
around, but all the staff have made her so welcome she just fits in. She loves her food there too. She has made leaps and bounds in her confidence where it comes to big crowds. We are so happy we chose Berryfields Day Nursery. Would always recommend them.

My little boy has been to 3 childbase nurseries and Berryfields has not disappointed at maintaining the standards we now expect. The new building is very well equipped, he adores going and talks about all the staff at home. He has built friendships and loves to tell me everything he’s done during his
day. The settling-in process was really smooth, given the nursery wasn’t fully open. I would 100% recommend Berryfields to any parent.

My daughter started her time with Berryfields Nursery at the beginning of April and although she is still finding her feet, the staff have been great. She will be starting her two days a week this month and we are hoping she will really start to settle in and no more tears at drop off!

Berryfields Day Nursery is absolutely amazing! We love this nursery! It is one of the best nurseries in Aylesbury! My daughter attends the nursery since they opened in January 2023. I remember the first day when she walked into the nursery and said goodbye to me without hesitation. She is very happy
and I am happy! The staff are amazing, professional and with lots of knowledge and experience. They have good activities, the food is delicious and the facilities are clean. Communication, transparency and honesty are very important for me and I did find what I was looking for in this nursery. Thank you so much for everything to our Berryfields Day Nursery family!

My daughter has settled in really well and gets so excited when we pull up to the nursery each morning. The fact she happily jumps into the arms of whoever is in the room that day and waves me off each morning fills me with so much ease. The team there is all really, really friendly, and the facilities
are amazing; I’m so glad I chose Berryfields Day Nursery for my daughter and would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking about sending their child there.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.972)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.972) out of 10 for Berryfields Day 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.972 for Berryfields Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (280 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 288 Ratings = 4.972

  • 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 Berryfields Day Nursery is based on 24 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 113 number of registered child places is 22.6, which has been reached with 24 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.
