    My child has been going to Bramleys since she was a year old and I truly feel she has benefited from attending the nursery. I feel that my child is safe at this nursery and feel that she gets a huge amount of stimulation through games and playing with other children. She has bonded well with the staff members and gets to try new foods from week to week. Bramleys is also in a beautiful village location and is surrounded by countryside which is great for walks with the children. My child loves to point out the cows from time to time!

    My child has settled in so well and made a lovely group of friends. The care she receives is brilliant and she always comes home telling me about her lovely activities she has done with her carers.

    A purpose built nursery in a lovely setting. Dedicated staff and happy children. Plenty of activities to suit our children’s development.

    My little boy has been attending this nursery two days a week for 18 months now and he absolutely loves it. He started in the 1s-2s room which he absolutely loved and is now currently in the 2s-3s room and thoroughly enjoys his time at nursery. He was such a shy little boy and since being at this setting he has gained so much confidence, which is all down to the staff at what a fantastic job they all do with the children. He has learned so much and I look forward to him continuing his time throughout the nursery and preschool. I would definitely recommend this nursery to any parents.
    A very happy mummy!

    This is a fantastic nursery in an idyllic setting. It is in a small village backing on to woods that is used for woodland walks and nature exploring. The staff are great with the children and they do a lot of different activities with them to help with the development of skills. They have recently replaced a lot of toys and equipment that my son loves playing with and a lot of the time does not want to leave he has so much fun. His connection with his key worker is amazing and I always look forward to hearing what he has been up to.

    The food they supply is amazing quality and varied and in fact, I think my son eats better at nursery than I do.

    I can’t thank the staff enough, they have developed my son so much over the last 18 months.

    This is a warm and friendly place where the children feel protected, nurtured and loved.
    They concentrate in making learning fun, social development and awareness of the outside world.

    My children are always happy to go and look forward to it. They have developed good relationships with the nursery workers and are made to feel part of the larger family.

    Lovely nursery in great settings. Good structure to the day and they follow the EYCS really well. Staff are really friendly and helpful.

    Our 2.5 year old daughter has attended Ardington since she was 8 months old, and absolutely loves it.

    The staff are more than helpful and can’t do enough to assist and the facility is first class. The ideal setting for a young person’s development and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it!

    Our son has been at Bramleys for 2 years and has settled well, the staff are supportive and know the children well. The outdoor space is a real positive despite the muddy clothes! We feel the food is varied and well prepared. We have had a few invoicing issues which were sorted eventually.

    My child has been attending the nursery since 1 years old and now is in the 2-3 year old room. The staff are lovely, and although I know who my child’s key worker is, I am comfortable talking to any of the ladies there, as they all know my child well. There are plenty of opportunities for outside play and great stimulation for the children in the different planned activities they do each day. I’m happy knowing that my child has been offered a good variety of food.

    Our daughter attends this nursery and has done since she was a year old. The staff are lovely and are amazing with the children, our little girl loves it and has learnt so much since she started. She is confident and always comes home with something new to share with us.

    The menu is fantastic – so much so I feel quite jealous of what’s she’s eaten during the day. The activities she does always sound fun and filled with opportunities to learn something new.

    We are very lucky to be able to send our little girl to such a lovely nursery with such caring and knowledgeable staff. Her days are filled with fun, learning and nutritious food! What more could you ask for.

    My little boy, now just 3, has been at the nursery since he was 8 months old – full time. I wouldn’t have left him anywhere unless I had full confidence in the staff, management and policies. Not only is he developing into a confident, albeit cheeky, little ‘threenager’, his language, social skills and ability to play seem to surpass most of his peers who do not go to nursery. The personal and friendly approach of the carers in each room makes it a pleasure to bring him to nursery each morning. I am delighted that he has had such a good grounding in his very early, but such formative, years. Feedback is welcomed in the good spirit in which it is given and this continuous learning journey for nursery, children and parents is as it should be.

    My daughter loves attending The Bramleys Day Nursery in Ardington and has lots of friends. She has been there since 11months old and always enjoys her time there. Her confidence and communication grows all the time and we are so happy with the care she receives from all of the wonderful staff. The nursery is in a lovely setting with great outdoor and indoor space. I would highly recommend this nursery!

    My Daughter started nursery back in July and the staff have been fantastic at reassuring me that she is doing well and making me feel at ease. They have truly made my return to work a pleasure rather than the nightmare I was fearing. I am happy to leave my daughter in their care and love reading her book at the end of the day to find out what new foods she has tried and the activities she has enjoyed. I love the setting of the nursery and love that the children get to enjoy the beautiful countryside around them by going on walks. I’m looking forward to many happy years of my daughter attending this nursery.

    The nursery staff have been fabulous helping our little girl settle in and she’s bonded well with her key worker.

    They are always helpful, listen and really take note of what you want and suggest ways they can help. Likewise, if you want to specifically do something, they will help to achieve this for you.

    Couldn’t recommend more highly, they are great!!

    I was recommended this nursery when moving to the area. I did visit a few others, but Bramleys in Arlington immediately had a good feel, plus it had a reasonable amount of parking for the inevitable busy drop-offs and pick-ups. I have two boys using the nursery, one started in the baby room and is progressing through the earlier rooms, the other progressed through the older rooms, such that we have now experienced them all. In all, they have been well supported in their development and they both enjoy each and every day. The elder being more able to tell us all about what he has been doing, as well as producing a lot of artwork! The staff really care about the kids and some dedicate a lot of their evenings to preparing or responding to requests (such as extra masks for decorating, they were a huge hit)! They also have a varied menu that is helping them try a lot of different things, which helps to ensure they don’t become fussy eaters and they do enjoy their food.

    My son started here in the 1-2 room which he settled into very easily and loved all of the staff. He is now in the 2-3 room which he enjoys each day and is always full of smiles each time I collect him, he loves the food each day too. I have found the staff very helpful with any questions I have regarding my son and what he has done or been like that day.

    My daughter started in the baby room just before she was 1 and will be leaving to start school in September. The nursery has been invaluable to her development and progression. Whilst she definitely has her favourites, all the staff are patient and kind and have the best interests and safety of all the children at heart. When I had concerns about my child, the management always dealt with me professionally and quickly.

    The food options on the menu aren’t to my preference and I would question some of the dishes being offered but on the whole, I believe a nutritional balance has been reached.

    Overall, the nursery ethos is an extension of my beliefs and has helped my daughter be the best that she can be and has prepared her for “big school”. Thank you.

    My child has been with Bramleys Day Nursery, Ardington since 4 months old and not a day has gone by where we don’t absolutely appreciate the staff there! Everyone has taken such amazing care of her and everyone seems to know her! From those early days where she needed rocking to sleep for a nap, to now dealing with the rambunctious toddler she’s become. We feel Ardington have played a huge part in helping us raise our daughter and wouldn’t trust her with anyone else for day care!

    My son loves Bramleys Day Nursery. He is really happy, settled and has made great connections with the staff and his key worker. His development has greatly improved since attending nursery and we are beyond impressed with the care and attention his key worker gives him.
    We would certainly recommend to friends and family in the area.
