Our little one started in July 2020 when he was just under 1 year old. He has always been very well cared for and we felt happy leaving him there. During The Covid pandemic the staff worked extremely hard and provided a valued service to all the key workers.
Our cheeky little one has thrived, made
loads of new friends, eats like a king and even came home last week talking Spanish. The staff are very warm and our little one adores them.

Reply from Paige, Parent Liaison Team at Crews Hill Day Nursery and Pre-School

Hello, thank you for leaving a lovely review. It's lovely to hear that you felt happy and comfortable in leaving your son at the setting and that you know he is well cared for. During the pandemic the staff did work very hard and we are very grateful for everything they done during such a hard and stressful time for everyone. I'm glad your little one has thrived since being at the setting, made new friends and that he has even come home showing you what he has learnt at nursery!

Nursery was a very big step for us as our daughter is our first baby, she was born during lockdown so spent a lot of time at home. It is a really reassuring feeling knowing she is in safe hands and is welcomed with open arms. Her key worker is very warm and nurturing as well as the other staff that
she has bonded with. Her development has come on leaps and bounds since starting nursery. It is a brilliant space and great learning environment and we are really happy we chose this nursery. Thank you to all the staff, you are all fantastic at what you do.

Head Start Day Nursery Crews Hill is an amazing nursery, my 2-year-old son is always happy and excited to go in when I drop him off in the morning and I can tell he's had a great day at pick up. I always receive detailed feedback at the end of the day which is comforting to know they pay attention to
detail on his development throughout the day. The food is very good as my son seems to eat more there than he does at home. I would happily recommend Head Start.

Our daughter has settled in really well, all be it unexpected to due to her attachment to her parents but the staff at the nursery have been so kind and loving to our daughter and she has enjoyed every minute of being there.
We’re very happy with the staff and all of the updates that we are receiving

We absolutely love this setting. The staff are so friendly and really care about the children. The learning journey is always so well planned with fantastic experiences and activities to help the children learn in a practical way. Communication with parents is really good with daily updates, weekly
memos and regular emails. We really could not be happier and neither could our son.

Good communication with all staff, they know the children well and have a great rapport with the children. There are lots of different planned activities around children’s current interests and when celebrating special days/events. I love that my 19-month-old takes part in music and Spanish lessons
at the nursery! Good outdoor area too.

My son has special educational needs and is incredibly well-supoorted by the Special Educational Needs Coordinator and all staff. He has thrived since moving to Head Start Day Nursery as he is a child that loves being active outdoors. He is always excited by the different animals that he gets to learn
about and watch staff care for - from chickens to guinea pigs.
The communication and support is always there and we have decided to keep him at the nursery for preschool, rather than a maintained nursery.

My child has been starting his settling in sessions at this nursery since the beginning of February. As a new mum of an under 1-year-old this has been a big thing for me to have to do but the staff have been so accommodating in booking our sessions and providing a great deal of free settling sessions
so that by the time he starts in April he is much more used to the nursery experience.
They are easily contactable, always greet you with a happy demeanour on drop off and pick up. I receive in-depth feedback both face to face and via the app. They make me feel relaxed about sending my baby to nursery and especially at such a young age as they seem to really care.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our daughter started 2 days a week in January 2022 and since she started we have seen huge developments in her personality and skills.
The nursery staff have been paramount in developing her sensory skills, her eating skills and general communication skills. She undertakes activities during her days
at nursery that we are unable to provide at-home thereby experiencing many different environments she wouldn’t necessarily have exposure to.
Our daughter is quite sociable and outgoing but my husband and I both agree that we have seen her come on in leaps and bounds that we never thought would be possible in such a short space of time.
We look forward to seeing how she continues to develop.

The staff have been spectacular with our son.
He has only been at the nursery for a very short time but it feels like they are an extension of the family and he has loved being there.
There is always a smiling face and warm welcome every morning and the communication from the office is second to
none.
He has learned so much from the staff in the short time he has been there and we could not be happier with this nursery.

We have just had to leave the incredible team at Head Start Day Nursery Enfield due to relocation for work. My son started attending the nursery when he was 6 months old and progressed through the classes up to pre-school. The team is led by an incredibly organised, efficient and supportive manager,
who keeps parents well informed and updated. The whole staff team including the on-site chef, are all so friendly and enthusiastic. The cheerful smiles of each and every one of them in the mornings at drop off is a such a welcome relief for any parent but when they’re dancing at the door calling your sons name like staff do it really is the sunshine to both mine and my sons day. Big thank you to the Head Start team at crews hill. We could not recommend their care more highly.

Reply from Paige, Parent Liaison Team at Crews Hill Day Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you for this lovely review. It's lovely to hear your son started in the Baby room and went through the nursery to our Pre-School room. We are glad that our team and management also contributed to making your son's time at our nursery enjoyable and also brought joy to yourself during drop off and pick up times. We would like to wish you and your son all the best for your future and with your relocation.

Head Start Enfield is a wonderful learning environment with staff who take time to know every single child. Our little one has thrived here and talks fondly of his days spent exploring and learning new knowledge and developing skills. We cannot praise Head Start Nursery Enfield enough. The daily updates

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.964)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.964) out of 10 for Crews Hill Day Nursery and Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.964 for Crews Hill Day Nursery and Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (185 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.964

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Crews Hill Day Nursery and Pre-School is based on 16 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 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 75 number of registered child places is 15, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
