Family-Run with a Personal Touch
Brambley Cottage is run by us, sisters Sarah and Emma. As working mums who once entrusted our own children to Brambley Cottage, we understand just how important high-quality, dependable childcare is.
Our personal experience shapes everything we do.

A True Partnership with Parents
.webp)
We believe childcare works best when parents are fully involved. That’s why we’ve built a culture of open communication and collaboration:
Famly - our nursery App, keeps you informed about everything your child gets up to during their time at nursery; it also provides the perfect tool for your feedback
Regular Parent Evenings – a chance to discuss your child’s progress face-to-face.
Questionnaires & Suggestion Box – we actively invite your opinions and ideas.
Hands-On Involvement – from joining us on outings to visiting to play musical instruments with the children; we love it when families get involved in nursery life.
Even our Robin’s Nest, Billy Badgers and Mickey Moles rooms were renamed by our children, because we believe their voices matter too!

Following the
Early Years
Foundation
Stage (EYFS)
Everything we do is guided by the EYFS framework, which supports your child’s learning and development across seven key areas:
1. Personal, Social and Emotional Development
2. Physical Development
3. Communication and Language
4. Literacy
5. Mathematics
6. Understanding the World
7. Expressive Arts and Design
We carefully select equipment, design environments, and plan activities with these principles in mind—so that your child is always supported, challenged, and encouraged to explore according to their individual needs.

Your Child's Online Learning Journey
We use Famly, a secure and easy-to-use App, to record and share your child’s daily activities and development:
• Real-Time Updates – see photos, observations, and milestones as they happen.
• Parent Contributions Welcome – we love it when you upload your own observations from home, whether it’s a special moment or a simple everyday win.
• Working Together on ‘Next Steps’ – we collaborate with you to set meaningful goals for your child’s learning, and plan how we’ll achieve them together.
Child-Led and
Child-Centered
At Brambley Cottage, your child’s thoughts, feelings, and ideas are at the heart of everything we do.
Whether it’s helping choose activity themes or re-naming rooms, we encourage their input and celebrate their independence.
We see every child as a capable learner with unique interests and potential—and we’re here to nurture that, every step of the way.
