Grove Hall have looked after my babies since June 2022 and they are absolutely fantastic. The staff are like a family and we've sent our youngest there too from September 2023. Both have flourished, Team Grove!

Our daughter has been attending Grove Hall 5 days a week since she was 9 months old and has seen both the baby room and toddler room (she is 2 now). The school is a charming end-of-terrace house with all you could want from a nursery. The staff are the shining star though. They are caring and know your
little ones so well. I feel supported and my daughter looks forward to drop-off every day. The 7:30 am drop-offs are key for us and it is so local to us that it makes everything easy. There is an app and parents WhatsApp group. I would recommend to anyone for any age.

Finding the right nursery for your child is difficult. Having to put your trust in someone else to look after the most important and precious people in your life is hard. Both of my children have been to Grove Hall and the staff have become their second family. I am able to be a full time working mum
(as so many of us are) knowing that my children are being looked after better than even I would were I at home!
The space is as good as any in the area, the days are stimulating and varied and the development of my little ones has been notable on an almost daily basis. That, paired with the fact that my son is standing, fully dressed at my front door from 7am every morning asking to go 'to school' is all any parent could hope for.
Thanks, Grove Hall!

Both my daughter and now my son have attended Grove Hall. We have been very happy with the nursery. The staff is its real forte. They are very kind and nurturing and we have felt very lucky to have a nursery which is like a home from home for our kids. The facilities are also good and the kids all seem
very happy.

Our daughter is so happy at Grove Hall. The staff are lovely, thorough and the atmosphere is relaxed and happy. The nursery itself is bright and interesting and the approach from the staff is flexible (eg. on days attended, food provided, structure of the day, etc). I feel very confident and comfortable
leaving my daughter there 5 days a week for long hours as she is so happy and relaxed. Thank you, Grove Hall!

My daughter has been in this nursery for nearly 3 years and we couldn't have been happier. She is cared for in a very loving way, is learning very fast - very advanced for her age - but what I believe to be the most important - how well they teach the kids great social skills.

This is a very good nursery. My daughter has been happy there since she started 2.5 years ago, thanks to the caring staff. The kids are offered lots of activities including yoga, music, sport and cooking! The opening hours are also very convenient for working parents.

Since starting at Grove Hall my son has settled in well and enjoys his time here. The staff are welcoming and pro-active, and my son enjoys the activities and playing with the other children.

Grove Hall is a very well managed nursery. We have been very happy with the way in which our son is looked after. The nursery staff are keen to understand our son's routine so they can help him settled in well. We enjoy seeing his daily activities report when we pick him up and it helps to understand
his behaviour (e.g. If he only took a short nap). The best thing about Grove Hall are the nursery staff, they are so gentle and caring and it is lovely to see that they have really bonded with our son.

The staff are very caring and nurturing. They are very engaging with the children who are all extremely happy in their environment. The range of activities is diverse and the children are stimulated and enjoy learning through play. I have had 2 children at Grove Hall over the past 6 years and I am very
happy with all aspects of care.

Both my son (now in year 2) and daughter (currently attending) have thoroughly enjoyed their time at Grove Hall. The staff are extremely caring and the food is good too. They have several outings, children go outdoors every day and have many activities like singing class, yoga and lots of messy play.
They are also open long hours and hardly ever closed during the year. An ultimate solution for working parents. My son attended from 13 months - 4 years and my daughter started aged 7 months. We love it.

Grove Hall is an excellent nursery. The staff are very caring. I knew my son would get cuddles and attention whenever he needed them. At the same time, they give him space to develop his own interests. As a result, he is a confident, secure and sociable little boy. The nursery put a lot of effort into
engaging with parents, putting on special events for parents and children. This adds to the friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.538)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.538) out of 10 for Grove Hall Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 4 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.708 for Grove Hall Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (34 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.708

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 3.83 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Grove Hall Nursery is based on 4 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.375

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 44 number of registered child places is 8.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.8 = 0.455

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
