I would recommend this nursery to anyone and everyone. Outstanding.

May 4, 2018 at 12:00 amWonderful experience. Everyone is so caring and attentive. My son always feels happy to go to nursery and he always has lots of interesting activities to get stuck into. I never have to worry about his safety which as a parent is particularly reassuring.

August 27, 2018 at 12:00 amMy experience of Brooksward has been excellent. My daughter struggles with change. Her keyworker and the entire team supported us both, personally, professionally and with all the creativity and care I could ask for.
The free flow system used throughout the facility creates a relaxed, creative fun environment for the children to nuture their skills and individuality. The professionals are constantly finding new innovative ways to engage the children.
All professional at Brooksward I have found to be open and honest and approachable. Whenever I have had a concern I’ve been listened to and a plan of action has been made. Their attention to detail is incredible.
They know my daughter, what’s important to her, her goals, achievements and her struggles. Together we are achieving the best for her, she oozes confidence. I wouldn’t send her anywhere else.

March 19, 2019 at 12:00 amMy child has attended this nursery for the past 18 months. The facilities and outside space are really good and the nursery even has a few pets for the children to look after. The children are encouraged to play outside and to be active. The nursery has varied activities and even has trips out within the local community and forest school which my child loves. There is a low turnover of staff so they get to know my child and he knows them. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and have helped my son to develop his independence. My son really enjoys attending this nursery and will be fully prepared for school from his time here.

August 27, 2019 at 12:00 amBest nursery I have used, staff are friendly and the turnover of staff is low. My daughter loves the staff and feels comfortable with them. Space is amazing for children two outdoor area’s and three indoor rooms with new activities every day. There is a learning journey week for your child every few weeks (4-6 Weeks) which helps you see your child’s progression. Love nursery and will continue to use them.

November 5, 2019 at 12:00 amThis was the only nursery that had space when I asked for. I had to email the manager every few weeks with complaints but nothing much changed, so I changed nursery. They only do three diaper changes unless there is an odd poo. My child always came home with heavy diapers and his eczema cream wasn’t applied properly. They make promises they never keep. Lost multiple items over the year that was never found. His jackets were always wet and I could squeeze and get water out. His clothes were always dirty. I have never seen enough staff with the kids either. They don’t wake up the child if he sleeps more than two hours, making life difficult for me at home. After multiple attempts, I gave up. It didn’t work for a single mum like me. All I wanted was to feel that my son was well taken care of and I didn’t need to worry about him when I went to work. Some of the girls who work there are amazing. It’s just that they are stuck, as they need to obey the managers.

July 29, 2020 at 12:00 amMy son followed my daughter into the nursery. The staff are caring and extremely helpful to us as parents. Some management changes have led to some confusion, but both children love it. The activities are highly developmental and challenging for the youngsters involved which leads to high levels of problem-solving skills.

November 23, 2020 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been attending from the age of 6 months. To see the bonds she has with her caregivers from day one following her settling in sessions is really comforting. The staff really know her interests and have given her lovely learning opportunities through play within the indoor and outdoor environments. We notice new development aspects each week and love sharing what she has been doing with family and friends.

December 18, 2020 at 12:00 amI have been blown away by the high standards in the baby room at Brooksward Nursery!! Leaving your child for the first time is no easy thing, but I can safely say I have always felt reassured, calm and happy with the way the staff have been. I have loved seeing the recent changes made to the room and truly believe this is the way forward to ensure quality first teaching! Thank you for everything you all do!!!

February 17, 2021 at 12:00 amMy 6-year-old has attended this nursery since being a baby and now goes to holiday club. When he was a baby he was constantly on medication due to being premature but I always felt at ease by the professional staff administering them. Wonderful staff and such a fantastic nursery all round. I would always recommend to friends.

February 22, 2021 at 12:00 amMy granddaughter loved attending this nursery, she transitioned from the toddler room through to the preschool and the consistency was nothing but reassuring. My granddaughter got to experience new things which she is unable to do at home, and was always eager to tell me about her new experiences and achievements. Having my granddaughter happy and confident to attend a setting where she had good relationships with the staff and children, brought me nothing but happiness. For me it was always important for her to feel safe and comfortable and that’s what this nursery provided her with.

April 1, 2021 at 12:00 amMy three year old boy has been attending since October 2020 and I really wish I’d have enrolled him here sooner. He was previously at a different nursery in Fishermead where he made absolutely no progress. On his first day the manager got the ball rolling for funding as we knew he needed extra support. She assigned the preschool SENCO as his key worker and within months he now has funding for extra support and is a completely different child! He was previously non-verbal but with the effort and level of care and attention by all the staff at Brooksward Day Nursery, he is talking and is so much more sociable. He has since also been diagnosed with ASD but since his very first day, the level of care shown to him from each staff member ensured me that he felt welcome. He always looks forward to going in and we put him in an extra day as he would wake up on a Friday and wait by the door to be dropped off. He is achieving all his targets and milestones so fast we literally can’t keep up. Would highly recommend!

March 24, 2022 at 12:00 amThe ladies in the baby room have been amazing. Our daughter took a while to settle, but once she did, she has been happy and engaged at the setting.

March 28, 2022 at 12:00 amI cannot fault the team at Brooksward. They are brilliant with how they look and help explore my little ones’ needs and imagination. We had some bad bits, but they have helped us and our wellbeing, to implant what we are doing at home and they will do it at nursery.

May 2, 2022 at 12:00 amI cannot fault Brooksward Day Nursery. Ever since our son started they have made every effort to make sure he settled in well and kept us involved in the whole process. The nursery is clean and a lovely environment for the kids to explore and learn. My son went from crying when going in to walking in on his own without even looking back. The staff are so friendly and caring towards the children and make so much effort to get to know them and their families. Our son has already gained so much confidence and has learned so many new skills and he has only been there since February! We are so happy we decided on Brooksward and it has made my return to work much easier knowing he is going in happy. Thank you to the manager and your whole team.

June 4, 2022 at 12:00 amCan not fault this nursery, the staff are incredible. They provide daily updates on my son’s activities whilst being there.
Very welcoming with my son on arrival, even when he’s not having such a good day they have endless cuddles for him to help him settle.
I love the fact they do a progress sheet every month or so, so I can see how my little one is getting on.
My son has such a lovely time there. He started pretty much barely speaking and they have helped boost his confidence and we now have a little chatterbox.

July 12, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter is over the moon every time she has to go to nursery and that is five times a week. I can tell that she is very well cared for and her teachers are always happy to see her in the morning. Recently the location has been redecorated and it looks amazing. Happy daughter, happy parents!
