Inclusion & environment
Children take part in outdoor learning, including forest school sessions and walks, and the inspector observed activities outdoors. Physical development is supported through activities such as balance bike sessions and dance that increase flexibility and strengthen core muscles.
My son has been going to Blossom Barn since it opened in October 2021 (we moved him from a nursery we were unhappy with). He settled in really quickly and now loves it so much, he’s sometimes not ready to come home at pick up! They have great facilities, there are often new resources, but most importantly the staff are wonderful! They all deeply care about the children and that really shows. It’s well run, the communication from the management team is great, and as an added bonus, they do so many additional programmes with the kids that are included in the price. They go to the forest garden, have balance bike lessons (our son is now so confident), Spanish, phonics and yoga/dance. I plan to send my second there next year
Read on GoogleWe cannot thank the WHOLE team at Blossom Barn enough for looking after our babies so well over the last year. The transition of going back to work was made so smooth thanks to the Love and care of the Blossom Barn Team. The diary updates and photos through the APP are so appreciated especially in the earlier days whilst transitioning. The daily activities they set up and fun environment they create really is amazing and I know our girls are always having the best time at nursery as they run to the door keen to get in on nursery days. The team genuinely take an interest in each child individually and enjoy getting to know their funny little ways, encouraging development along the way. What a unique and special place Blossom Barn is and how lucky we are to have found it.
Read on GoogleMy daughter has been in the care of Lauren since she was a year old, Evie was so Comfortable on the first settling in session and we’ve never had any tears of her going in she’s always loved every second of it. We was so grateful we had to opportunity to go to blossom barn. Lauren and her staff are incredible, Evie has learnt so much since being in you’re care from, Spanish lesson, phonics lessons and balance bike lesson and so much more. Evie has had the best 3 years with Lauren and her new staff members. We are so sad Evie now has to go onto primary school, I honestly can not recommend blossom barn enough. They’ve all been amazing. Thank you for the journey Evie experienced with you all. I wish you all the best! Xxxxx
Read on GoogleI absolutely love Blossom Barn Nursery. Both my children have been with them since the beginning and I couldn't ask for a better environment for my kids to grow up in. From the balance bike sessions, spanish lessons, forest school, yoga and many more activities , to the police men and firemen coming over so the kids can ask questions and explore the vehicles involved in their jobs, to the wonderful outdoor and indoor play area, toys , books and accesories, to the lovely members of staff... Honestly I can't praise them enough. Would definitely recommend xx "Happy mummy of 2 - Romana"
