My little boy has attended the nursery since November and absolutely loves it!
He has really bonded with his key worker and has only not been met at the door in the morning or brought out in the evening by her a couple of times which is really appreciated as it is great for parents and children to
have this continuity and chance to build up a rapport.
I have also been impressed by how quick they are to respond to messages sent through the app.
The attention to detail within the activities/observations each week again is brilliant tailoring activities to the parent observation must take a lot of thought and time.
I can't speak highly enough of the food/nutrition again the time and thought that goes into creating such a menu, always looks so good in the pictures.
The attention to detail within the re-vamped areas is amazing and done with the minimal amount of disruption possible to the business.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful review. All the team will be so happy with everyone's reviews. I'm so happy we are not disrupting the nursery too much in the re-vamp, my husband does try and make it a smooth process as much as he can, but the children do love helping him and getting involved. Thank you again.

My girls love nursery. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, we receive updates daily along with photos and the nursery is lovely and has recently been renovated. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to friends & family.

My child has been attending since she was 9 months old she absolutely loves going to nursery and her development whilst being at nursery is amazing! All the staff are so lovely even the staff that are not her key workers are all so lovely I would 1000% recommend. Since becoming Yellow Brick Road they
have made so many changes to the nursery it looks amazing what they have done.

My son has been going to Pump Farm since January 2024 and he absolutely loves it. He has great relationships with his key worker as well as the other staff in his room, they're all happy, and helpful and work hard to reassure me that I'm leaving my baby in the best hands when I go to work. The management
team and owners do a fantastic job at making sure we as parents are kept up to date with any developments, changes or exciting things coming up, of which there are many, there is always something fun happening for the children and for the parents. Equipment is always being upgraded and fun activities are always being set up. My little boy has learned so much, he is always impressing us with new things he has learned. He eats like a king too, thanks to the incredible chef and her fantastic menu of home-cooked food. We love Pump Farm and all of the staff and are so glad we chose to send our little boy there.

What a lovely review! Thank you for your feedback, we are over the moon you are happy with all aspects of the nursery. Our chef works so hard to create a menu twice a year, but also creates theme menus for the children to enjoy. We do appreciate your support while doing the re-vamp, we are hoping the full re-vamp won't take too much longer, but the children do love getting involved anyway haha Thank you again.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.965)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.965) out of 10 for Yellow Brick Road, Pump Farm 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 4.965 for Yellow Brick Road, Pump Farm is calculated as follows: ( (278 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 287 Ratings = 4.965

  • 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 Yellow Brick Road, Pump Farm 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, 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.
