A Warm Welcome
Our nursery has proudly supported generations of families since 1974, under the dedicated ownership of Mrs Janet Torris. Today, she is joined by her daughter Rachel, granddaughter Jessica, and a loyal team of long-standing staff—all passionate about giving every child the very best start in life.
We work closely with families to provide care and education that’s tailored to each child’s unique needs. Our strong, long-standing connection to the local community is one of our greatest strengths.
Caring for children aged 2 to 5 years, we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, offering a balanced, play-based approach to learning that supports every child’s development. We adhere to the EYFS statutory framework for staff-to-child ratios, often exceeding these requirements to ensure a consistently high level of care and individual attention.
Our nursery is in the scenic Old County Cricket Ground, with a extensive beautiful outdoor space for children to explore. We’re just a short walk from Brentwood town centre and the local train station, making us easily accessible. The building is secure, with a buzzer entry system and CCTV for added peace of mind. Inside, we have a spacious hall, and a cosy play area, both filled with natural light, providing the perfect environment for children to learn and grow.
We’re open year-round, apart from a one-week closure at Christmas. Our hours are from 8:30am to 5:30pm – Monday to Friday.
Our Ethos
“Inspiring independence, confidence and preparation for future lives”
We encourage a ‘have a go attitude’, where children are supported to explore, take risks,
and develop their independence, all while having fun!
Our Vision
Where every child feels safe, secure, and valued, with input from parents at every step.
With families, creating long-lasting friendships that extend across generations. We take pride in welcoming back past parents and pupils for work experience and ongoing connections.
Equipping them with the skills and knowledge they need for their next stage of education. Through activities like emotional development, language skills, and musical communication, we create a rich, inclusive learning environment for every child.
We believe that when children enjoy what they do, they engage more fully and learn in a way that will stay with them for life.
Our Testimonials
We are very happy with all aspects of the time our son spends at Brentwood Day Nursery. He loves it so much which is a testament to everything you provide. Thank you all so much
The attention to detail is exceptional. The love, care and education is like home from home. My children are so happy and content, and so are we as parents, knowing that they are being looked after so incredibly well.
I couldn’t recommend Brentwood Day Nursery enough to other parents. Our children have had a fantastic time over the last 2.5 years at the nursery. We’ve seen our children grow and develop as individuals with the expertise, support and care shared from Rachel, Janet and the Team.
After visiting multiple nursery’s in the local area, we found the perfect place for our child in Brentwood Day Nursery. The staff really care and constantly surprise me with their imaginative curriculum, openness with parents and carers, but most importantly the care and attention they give to the children in their charge.
I can not begin to thank you for the excellent care that you and your staff provide. The staff are a credit to you. All staff offer such love, trust & respect to each and every child and that is truly hard to come by
This Nursery is amazing...the staff are so caring, friendly, and attentive...My little girl absolutely loves everyone. She started when she was 2 and she is almost 5 now and off to her school ....she was happy every day in nursery, she actually got upset whenever she got sick and had to keep her home...
I highly recommend to everyone. Thank you Brentwood Day Nursery.
We would like to say a huge thank you for being such an incredible teacher to our daughter. We are so grateful or the kindness, patience and dedication you have shown every day. You have made her time in nursery truly special and we've seen her thrive under your wonderful care. Thank you for everything!
