    Both of my children have been to this nursery and even though they are completely different children (and took different periods of time to settle in), they both love it.
    My eldest attended from the age of 11months to 4.5 years and my youngest (2.5) is currently in the toddler room.
    The staff are fantastic and it’s lovely that we knew so many of them the second time around. My children adore them which is all we care about.
    I’d recommend this nursery to anyone. The setting is brilliant and we feel lucky to have been able to have both children attend.

    My youngest is currently at Bluebell Barn and joined just before his first birthday and he’s now 15 months old. He loves it there. He gets so happy waiting to go in in the morning. When I pick him up, he’s always had a great time playing with his friends and doing various activities. They are brave enough to play with messy time activities that I’m not brave enough to do at home. My eldest went there from 8 months to 4 years and again loved it. The staff are amazing with the children and make the parents feel welcome and involved. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bluebell nurseries and I have done on numerous occasions to friends. Thank you to the Bluebell Barn team.

    Excellent nursery. Our son absolutely loves going to the barn and we will not hesitate to send our daughter, once she is ready. Always lots of activities going on and the outdoor space is lovely. A big thank you to all the staff.

    My son has been at Bluebell Barn since he was 8 months old he is now 2. I work full time. It is a great reassurance to me that my little boy is not only happy to see the wonderful girls in Tigers every morning but that he is excited for all the fun activities they have planned for him. They cater and care for his individual needs and always keep me fully updated on every aspect of his care. Every evening he runs out to meet me with a big smile on his face. I am a key worker and I particularly praise them for going far beyond what was asked from them during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

    My daughter has attended Bluebell Barn Nursery for the last 18 months and over that time the staff have only ever been professional, approachable and warm. All of the staff have been amazing and that shows in the utter excitement she has when she knows she is going to nursery, we can’t even have breakfast at home, she just wants to get there. There is such a variety of activities and play opportunities for her indoors and outdoors. My daughter is allergic to soya and dairy and the nursery have been fantastic in providing all of her food and milk and I have never had to worry about what she is eating. I highly recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, happy environment for their child to thrive in.

    My son attends Bluebell Barn Children’s Nursery. He absolutely loves going. The staff are all amazing and were fantastic from the very start. All the staff are always polite, friendly and helpful and I couldn’t wish for my son to be at a better nursery. Thank you.

    My daughter has been at Bluebell since she was 8 months old and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. The team looking after her are so friendly and welcoming and she is always itching to get in there in the mornings. I’ve never had any worries about leaving her. She’s always taking part in lots of activities and being at nursery has really helped develop a set routine for her. She is always so happy and content when I collect her after a full day and they always take the time to talk you through her day.

    My little boy has been at the nursery for two years and is always picked up with a big smile on his face. The staff are brilliant and deserve extra recognition for everything they do, especially with the additional challenges this year has brought!

    Our son joined the baby room at Bluebell Barn Children’s Nursery in September at just 11 months old. We could not be happier with how well he has settled in. He only attends two days a week but he absolutely loves it. He squeals with excitement when we arrive at nursery with him and he comes out at the end of the day with the biggest smile on his face.
    Starting during the pandemic has meant we’ve not got to see him in action as much as we’d like but it’s nice to have received a few photos and a video and the staff are always lovely when we hand him over or collect him. It is clear that they know his personality so well already and we feel that he is in safe hands.
    We are so so pleased that we picked Bluebell Barn for him, it was the perfect choice.

    Our daughter now two and a half has attended Bluebell Barn Children’s Nursery since she was eleven months old and has literally loved every day of it. I found all the staff so welcoming in the beginning, which really made me feel at ease during what can be such a stressful time. I found them all very approachable, especially her key worker at the time and also another member of staff. I also felt very supported by the management too, especially one of them. Now that my daughter has moved up to Tigers, I can’t thank all the staff enough for all their kindness and creativity that they bring to her experience at nursery. Five members of staff to name a few are absolutely brilliant. I am so proud of how far my daughter has come, and it is largely thanks to you all. The activities and equipment available to the kids are absolutely brilliant and are always maintained and updated regularly. So I would definitely recommend this place as a top class nursery.

    As a mother, it is a somewhat daunting experience finding a nursery to care for your child. We had several local visits booked to scope out the best place for our Daughter. I loved Bluebell Barn so much on our first visit and with my Daughter’s first taster session, that I cancelled all other nursery viewings. I had no doubt this is the place and the people I wanted to care for my child. I have been 100% happy ever since she has started. The staff are so friendly and efficient. They update and communicate with us when needed to and consistently update the parent portal so we can see all the activities she gets up to during the day. Would 100% recommend Bluebell Barn to anyone.

    My eldest two children went to Bluebell Barn some years ago and there was never any doubt that my youngest would attend from this year as well. All three of my girls have been well looked after, learnt a lot and had an opportunity to do so much learning through play. The facilities are great and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery to others.

    We have had two children go through this wonderful nursery and couldn’t be happier with the care they have both had.
    The staff are positive, inclusive, imaginative, and genuinely care about the children they interact with each and every day.
    The management is approachable and friendly and runs the nursery very collaboratively with parents to make sure decisions are open and well informed.
    The facilities are peaceful and we love the feeling of being amongst the wildlife, despite its urban placement. So much time and money have been put into redecorating recently and into developing new toys and outdoor apparatus to support the children’s development.
    The food they have is balanced and varied and I would happily eat their menu every day too if I could!
    My youngest is now in his last year and skips happily in every day and always leaves with a big smile on his face – I couldn’t ask for any more.

    Absolutely fantastic nursery couldn’t recommend more highly. Staff are so caring and attentive and you can see they enjoy and have a passion working with children.
    My son absolutely loves going there and always says he is happy when leaving the nursery.
    They keep you informed about the nursery going on at all times.

    My son has attended Bluebell Barn from the age of two and has developed and grown so much since being there!
    My son was very much an emotional child when he first started at the nursery, but the staff were very quick to give him a cuddle and make him feel safe and welcomed – they were also always so understanding and welcomed our constant phone calls for our own reassurance!
    It’s so lovely having constant updates and photos and reports back via the app – the photos of what he’s been up to throughout his day and his happy little face is great to see.
    My son is fed so well when he is at nursery, almost definitely better than he is when at home – the variety and foods they offer the children have improved my son’s willingness to try new foods and have encouraged him to eat better at home.
    Honestly, Bluebell Barn has been a Godsend – I don’t have to worry about organising anything as they do it all!
    Would 100% recommend.
    Thank you all so much for all that you do and have done!

    My little boy has been going to Bluebell Barn Children’s Nursery for about 6 months now, and absolutely loves it, never had any tears at the door (so far!). The staff have all been so lovely and know him and us well even with him only going one day a week. The facilities are great, especially the garden! Love the fact we had a parent’s evening, which helps us to feel very involved!

    Such a fantastic nursery! All the staff are amazing, so patient, kind and understanding. Both my children love going, always feel happy and safe and always have the best time! My daughter started at 9 months and we both had a bit of separation anxiety as we’d never really been apart but she settled so quickly and the staff were amazing! Now have a 3 1/2-year-old and an 18-month-old who both absolutely love going and always come out happy after having a great day!

    Bluebell Barn Children’s Nursery has been amazing for our daughter. She found it difficult to settle at first due to only attending once a week. This was hard on us all, but the staff went out of their way to help her and make her feel comfortable, offering her extra settle in time. The regular communication from her keyworker has really reassured me as a nervous parent and the vibe is extremely friendly and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. Staff really go out of their way to build positive relationships with parents via the app during the day and a nice debrief of your child’s day on pick up! Our now 16 month old daughter confidently goes into nursery with just a “ta ta” to mummy and daddy. This is due to the time, patience and empathy the staff in Bluebell Barn have all shown her! Thanks guys!

    My daughter has been at Bluebell Barn Children’s Nursery since she was 1 and is just about to start her next step up to Primary School and we can’t recommend it highly enough. She has always been well cared for and looked after. She’s quite a shy and sensitive child when away from home and all the staff have been fantastic at building positive relationships with her and us and she is starting to show a more confident side. Their hard work has really prepared her for her next step. You really feel that the staff know your child and to me that’s the most important thing.
    As a working family we also love that there’s nothing to worry about, nappies, sun cream, food is all provided and it’s just one less thing to worry about in the mornings!
    Our son will start in September and we’re sure that he will have just as brilliant an experience here too. Thank you all.
