Asquith Barley Barn Sawbridgeworth Day Nursery

Our daughter has flourished since starting at Barley Barn. My husband and I are so impressed with all the team. Our daughter looks forward to going to nursery every day and has made lots of new friends. Narley Barn has supported the potty training which we have generally appreciated. We are in awe of all the delicious meals that are prepared for our daughter every day and it is wonderful to hear that she is trying new food. We highly recommend Barley Barn.

This childcare setting offers all an all-day service so is great for working parents. The staff are friendly and they offer a good range of activities. There is a decent menu for the children to experience different foods and mealtimes with friends.

My son has spent a lovely three years with the staff at Barley Barn, moving from the baby room, all the way up to pre-school. He is shy and stubborn, a particularly trying combination – but it was never a problem for any of the team at Barley Barn Sawbridgeworth. He was loved and accepted for who he was, and given room and support he needed to develop and grow at his own pace. Their patience with him (and an anxious first-time mum) was endless, and so greatly appreciated. We are so grateful for the time he spent there, and the friends he made. Would happily send any future children back! We will miss you all!

Barley Barn is amazing. My little girl’s development each day amazes me and I put most of it down to the staff at the nursery. They have ensured she has met and exceeded every milestone even potty training and I couldn’t be happier that I moved her from her previous nursery. The girls that work here treat the kids like their own little family and have so much genuine love and passion for them, and take so much interest in their daily lives as well as looking after them. I always say it’s the staff that make a nursery and these girls do an amazing job and deserve so much credit. As a mum leaving your infant in capable hands who you know you can trust is hugely important.

My Son absolutely loves his time spent at Bright Horizons Sawbridgeworth. He started in their Nursery and is now in pre-school. He has come so far with the support, guidance empowerment and encouragement from all the wonderful staff. His learning, independence and understanding he has gained at 4 years old are phenomenal. The staff are amazing, very empathetic and attentive to all his needs and changing needs. I have lovely chats about my son with the staff when I pick him up, I’m also kept up to date throughout the day with photos of what he is doing also with his meals and snacks via the app. My son has met friends for life, he has so much fun in there. My working environment has changed on a few occasions with days and times, it was just never a problem for the manager and the other staff she supported me 100% in everything.

My 1-year-old daughter recently joined the baby room. The staff have made every effort to make her transition as smooth as possible. She seems so happy there and we never get tears at drop off and pick up. They give regular updates via the app, with photos of her enjoying herself which is reassuring to any parent.
I’d definitely recommend the nursery to any parents.

My son has been at Barley Barn right through from the Baby room to now Pre-school, and he has absolutely loved his time there.
The team are fantastic and always go above and beyond, any problems or concerns have always been dealt with quickly and efficiently.
I couldn’t have asked for a better team or environment for my son to be in – he has seemed so happy to be there and always comes home full of energy and excited to tell me about his day!

Our daughter has been enrolled at the nursery since she was 10 months old. We only have good things to say about the nursery. Our little girl has thrived in this environment and she has been well supported by all members of staff in both the baby room and now the nursery room. The staff are welcoming, friendly and incredibly caring. Our little girl loves her keyworkers and speaks about them even when she’s not at nursery. She looks forward to her nursery days, so that speaks volumes about the care. The team are enthusiastic and there are always lovely activities set up for the children. They are offered a range of foods, which our little girl throughly enjoys. Communication has been brilliant since a new app system has been adopted. It’s great to be able to receive updates and check in on our daughter. Overall we would highly recommend the nursery. It may look a little rough around the edges, but this has no effect on the excellent caring environment.

My daughter has been going to nursery for about two years and a half now and she loves it! She has found it a bit unsettling moving rooms at times but the staff have been so great with her and have made her feel much better about it all. She talks about the staff who look after her a lot most days when she is not there and loves them all for individual reasons. I think that is lovely as it shows what an impact they all have on her in different ways! They do so much fun stuff and it’s lovely to see the activities on the app.

I have 2 children attending and they are thriving. The staff are so kind and professional and my children love them. My eldest child also attended and still talks fondly of her key workers. I would definitely highly recommend this nursery. The staff are wonderful and my children love it.
