January 26, 2022 at 12:00 amWe have sent all of our 3 children to Farley Nursery School for their nursery years and it was the best decision we ever made, the staff are friendly, warm and fun and the setting is amazing. I’m so glad that my kids got to benefit from the outside space, the fresh air and the freedom that being a Farley Nursery School kid gave/gives them. Not to mention the visits to the farm, the home-cooked food, campfires, climbing, messy play, French lessons, dancing, theme days, I could go on and on. The nursery feels like family now and I don’t know how I’m going to cope when my youngest stops going!

January 26, 2022 at 12:00 amAfter moving from London, and visiting the nursery, we decided to fully embrace being closer to the countryside and sent all three of our children to Farley Nursery School.
It really is a wonderful place, with fantastic and caring staff and constant opportunities to explore, learn and play in a magical setting. The adventures to be had at Farley Nursery are countless and it becomes like family, to both the children and parents.
It truly is a special place and we feel incredibly lucky to have found it.

January 27, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son has attended since he was just over one, he is now in Top Conker and will start school this year. When we first visited Farley Nursery School, Sparsholt, we knew this was the right nursery for our son and haven’t looked back. Outdoor focused, fun, lively and engaging for the kids. I know when I drive off to work he has an action-packed day ahead, with carefully considered activities and learning opportunities. The staff are relaxed and approachable yet responsive. As someone who works in the NHS service where I know the importance of early years for child development and emotional wellbeing, I have always felt confident Farley Nursery contributes to creating a great start in life!

January 31, 2022 at 12:00 amWe feel so incredibly lucky that our son has been able to attend Farley Sparsholt. The staff are caring and creative, and I always know he will have a great time there.
The handovers are detailed, and they make time to tell you about any special moments that happened in their day, and you feel like the key workers really enjoy their job and have such special bonds with all of the kids.

February 1, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth of my children attended Farley Nursery from the age of one up until starting school, and they loved every day there. The largely outdoor setting was perfect for them – it captured their imagination and enthusiasm and allowed them to expend their endless energy and develop their physical abilities to a high level.
The staff are always attentive, caring and great fun. Farley had two managers over the time my children were there, and they are both still loved by my kids. They are very dedicated, great team leaders, very supportive and keep the team enthusiastic, even on the rainiest days!
Farley also benefits from its location – trips to see the cows being milked, lambing in Spring, and the Christmas Nativity held in one of the College farm barns with real donkeys add to the wonderful times the children have there.
I’m so glad my children went to Farley!

February 1, 2022 at 12:00 amA fantastic nursery where my daughter has been supported and guided by the wonderful staff. Farley at Sparsholt was always where we wanted our daughter to go, as her cousin had previously attended. In particular, their care of the children, and staff, throughout the Covid pandemic has been exceptional. My daughter has made wonderful friends, is independent, kind and caring. It’s a joy to drop her to Farley, knowing she is so well cared for whilst I am at work.

January 23, 2023 at 12:00 amWe have been with Farley Nursery at Sparsholt for 4 years and in that time have had the most wonderful experience. The staff are so dedicated and caring and fully embrace the outdoor learning mentality (they deserve 10 stars!!). Our children love attending and we love seeing them thrive in the setting. Some of the highlights are the nativity in the barn and sports day, but the day to day activities and experiences are also so valuable and we are lucky that our children have had the chance of such a special start to their education. The addition of cooked meals has just topped the already great experience.

January 23, 2023 at 12:00 amFarley Nursery School Sparsholt is not just a nursery you send your children to for childcare. Once you walk through those gates you are automatically a part of the Farley family and Farley way. Coming from an outdoor background it was evident that Farley was our first choice knowing that every day would be different for our children and they would be outside whatever the weather. Seeing all of the Instagram posts each day fills us with joy and warmth. Not only have our children enjoyed making new friends, participating in a range of activities’ but most importantly they have been loved and cared for by the dedicated and wonderful Farley staff. Our eldest started school in September and the journey he went through with Farley since he joined at 10 months has demonstrated that he has gained confidence, resilience and enthusiasm for learning which is reflected now he is at school.
Farley Sparsholt we thank you for everything, you are all awesome.

January 23, 2023 at 12:00 amFarley is the most magical place for children – I wish I had been able to go to a nursery like Farley when I was little. The ethos and values they stand by align to us as a family. Both my son and daughter have been so happy there since the day they started. The staff are caring and so fun for the children. If you are looking for a nursery that supports and develops your child with freedom and kindness, Farley is outstanding.

January 24, 2023 at 12:00 amFarley Sparsholt is the perfect nursery for our energy-filled, inquisitive nearly 2 year old. Starting forest nursery at 11months old, before he could walk, was questioned by some friends, but the staff made him so welcome from the word go and activities are always age/ ability appropriate. From the start he has gone in in the morning happily, he now trots in and barely looks back and when I collect him after a full day at 6pm he wants to keep on playing. Staff always have a smile on their face and it’s unusual to hear or see kids upset when you enter the yard at the end of the day. No matter the weather, they seem to have a great time and have the ability to spend plenty of time outside whilst never getting too cold. I am amazed on a regular basis by the creative things they get upto. I feel so lucky that we managed to get a space there, what a way to start out as a child! I often wish I could stay and play as opposed to heading off to work!

January 24, 2023 at 12:00 amMy toddlers have been at Farley since September 2022 and I have to say it is the best thing they do all week. They enjoy every second, so much so that one sometimes doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day!! They get to do so many fun and messy things and are looked after so incredibly well. They love the staff there and sometimes even run and hug them when we arrive in the morning! They both love animals so all the trips to the farm etc at the college is just wonderful. They always look for ‘horsies’ in the field when they arrive and just can’t wait to get stuck in to the fun each day.
I am so glad we chose Farley, we have never looked back!

January 24, 2023 at 12:00 amFarley nursery has a wonderful caring staff that genuinely seems to enjoy looking after the children and creating fun and stimulating learning environments. They take the time to get to know your child as an individual and you always feel like they are in safe hands. They’ve really helped my boy to eat more adventurously and the pack mentality helps! Keep up the good work.

January 24, 2023 at 12:00 am5 star nursery! My son attends 4 days a week, and loves ‘Farley days’. He is always greeted with a jolly, bubbly welcome at the gates and is always happy to go in, skipping in with a smile on his face. I hear about all sorts of exciting activities, games and fun they have throughout the day at pick up, where staff give a happy and thorough overview of the day. Pictures are updated to EY log and Instagram regularly so we get to see snippets of their day too. He has made some great friends and is thriving in the wonderful, engaging and nurturing environment they provide. The ‘mum guilt’ of work is alleviated knowing he has such great fun days in such good care. The stacks of muddy washing speak volumes for the amount of outdoor fun that is had!

January 24, 2023 at 12:00 amOne of the best decisions we have made for our son is to have him attend Farley Sparsholt Nursery. He absolutely loves his days there, filled with exploring, outdoor play and lots of learning. The team are the absolute best; smiley, positive, flexible and so engaging with the children. Thank you for looking after our soon so well!

January 27, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth of our sons have luckily attended Farley over the years and our youngest is now in his last year within the Top Conker Room having worked his way up through all 3 Yurts. The team Farley are exceptional in all they do. They always do the best for the children and both children and staff are always happy and always beaming a smile no matter what the British weather throws. The team have really supported us and been really flexible in everything that they do. The staff, who are all fabulous Farley family helped developed our boys into confident, independent, caring young individuals with great friends which is an absolute joy to watch. If I could sum up Farley and what they do in one world it would be exceptional. Well done all involved. We are so grateful to each and everyone involved. And the Cheese and Wine parent’s evenings are great fun too.

January 31, 2023 at 12:00 amWe have loved our experience with Farley nursery at Sparsholt. My partner’s little girl had 3 wonderful years with them and she still talks about her fabulous experiences daily! We now have our youngest there and she goes in with a smile and leaves with one- we love the photo updates to see how she is enjoying her day and she genuinely has developed a love for the outdoors .. and she comes home pooped and ready for bed (its a win all round!). Each and every staff member is caring, patient and so kind and I have full faith that our girl is being looked after brilliantly. We love it!

January 31, 2023 at 12:00 amFarley is a wonderful caring Nursery, the staff are wonderful, the facilities are excellent and they’re extremely flexible to the individual needs of your child. If you want your child to spend more time outside being at one with the world, this is the place for you!

January 31, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth of our children attend Farley, Sparsholt and absolutely love it. We moved them from another nursery at the end of last year and haven’t looked back. The staff are exceptional – caring, engaging and enthusiastic. The outdoor learning environment is fantastic and the opportunities and activities available are just brilliant! Could not be happier that our children go here.
