I absolutely love the nursery! My child started attending it three months ago when he was thirteen months old and I was very apprehensive about how he would settle in given that he was quite attached. I did not need to worry; the staff went out of their way to make sure he was happy!
My boy loves
being outside and their garden is very nice and easily accessible from the baby room so the children seem to spend a lot of time there. Every time I come to collect my child he is happy playing. I am very grateful to the ladies from the staff who are all exceptionally warm and caring!

My 2 daughters have been very happy at Mayfield. My older girl spent 3 years there, she went all the way from the baby room to pre-school. The new management have introduced a lot of positive changes since when they took over in 2014 and they continue doing an excellent job and are always open to suggestions
and keen on improvement and innovation.
My girls have always been happy to attend. Staff have always been caring and attentive. They had a lot of fun and they have received a lot of love which I think is the one thing parents should value the most in childcare.

We have been so happy with the childcare my two children have had at Mayfield Nursery for the last two years and we are very sad they are leaving. The staff are really lovely and made a real connection with both of my children. My children have experienced all three rooms at the nursery and they all
provide a fantastic, caring environment.


The indoor and outdoor space was what made us initially choose the nursery as well as the separate sleeping rooms which seemed rare to find in the area. Also the parking for pick-ups and drop-offs is very easy. The fact the nursery is family-run is also a huge bonus. We really cannot recommend the nursery enough.

It's always hard to leave your child with people you don't know but the manager and the team made it so much easier. Mayfield is a family run nursery which makes you feel like part of the family. We knew from the moment we visited that our son (2 when he started) would be well taken care of and we were
thrilled to see him flourish there. The staff at Mayfield were incredible and we will be sorry to say goodbye. I felt very comfortable with the staff in my son's room every day and was able to discuss developmental concerns and ask advice from people who play an active role in developing toddlers. I also felt incredibly comfortable speaking with the management and was always satisfied with any responses I got. As a proud mum, I was touched to know that all the staff knew my son, no matter which room they worked or who they were assigned to as a key worker. I can absolutely recommend Mayfield as an amazing nursery with staff who genuinely care about the children under their responsibility.

We only used Mayfield for a short while, but were extremely happy with the care our 10 month old son received. Great communication with parents regarding what our son has done during the day - nap times, food eaten etc. and if he ever had a little bump we got a call. Really fond of the ladies in the
baby room and the management team. Keep up the good work!

It is always very hard sending your baby to the nursery after maternity leave but Mayfield nursery made the transition so easy. I was struck by how friendly and kind all the staff are and how amazing and supportive the manager is. My daughter was always in a good mood when I picked her up and the care
and love that I felt from the staff was truly heart warming. I would highly recommend this nursery, I am very sad we have to leave.
Best nursery ever.

Both my girls went to Mayfield and loved it. Staff were caring and gave regular feedback on the children's development as well as the daily handover. Outside space is a real bonus for a London nursery and was used well. My girls enjoyed the daily focused activities and the larger activities (nativity
and sports day) were well planned and they even brought a farm to the nursery!
Learning was good and observations were regularly done by staff, but the main thing for me was that my girls were happy there and made some good friendships with their peers and developed trusting relationships with the care staff. Overall would recommend.

Our son has been attending Mayfield Nursery since Aug 2016 and we couldn't be happier. All the staff members are friendly and welcoming to the children and parents. The day runs to schedule and the staff and children know the routine so there is no time lost due to procrastination. I was worried about
potty training given my son was at nursery five days per week but the nursery assisted with his transition. Staff take the children to the toilet at regular intervals throughout the day to avoid accidents. The outside space at the nursery is fantastic and the children go out every day at least once. During the warmer months, they spend a lot of time outside, which is great for my little adventurer. There are activities set out daily and you only have to look at the lovely display boards to see what the children have been up to. We have moved since joining Mayfield and have not yet found a suitable nursery to match the high quality offered there.

Mayfield is a wonderful family run nursery and the staff in the rooms are very much a second family. They care for the children as if they were their own and make effort above and beyond. It's tough to leave your children in childcare but the staff at Mayfield make it as easy as it can be plenty of
cuddles for the little ones and a wonderful variety of games, toys and activities on offer.


The food is fantastic all home cooked on site by a wonderful lady who has worked there for years. My 8 year old still talks about her macaroni cheese years later!


I don't hesitate to recommend Mayfield to others. Go and meet the staff and I'm sure you'll be convinced!!

I have been so pleased with Mayfield nursery and thoroughly recommend it to other parents.


The care, interest, creativity and affection that the staff demonstrate every day is clearly having a very positive effect on my son and his development. I can see how happy he is with the staff and his environment

there which makes me feel comfortable going to work as I trust he'll have an interesting and stimulating day.


I feel well informed about what he's been up and like the variety of rooms and big garden which is available to the children. The general setup is safe, well organised and the atmosphere is always very warm. My son is now 16 months old and has been attending Mayfield for 6 months.

The nursery underwent a change of management in late 2013 that transformed it into the great place it is today. My son really enjoys being there, despite being very shy in nature, and it's clear from the way he runs to hug staff members in the morning that they put a lot of effort into looking after
the children in their care. The nursery facility is itself bright, open and spacious (being what looks to be a converted church?) and has a secure outdoor area with grass/toys, which is great in summer but can be a bit muddy in winter. I can confidently recommend the nursery.

My son started at Mayfield when he was 10 months old and settled in straight away. He has been there for 5 months now and he can't wait to get there in the morning. All of the staff are lovely, caring and very devoted to all the children. The facilities are great, huge garden which the kids love. Inside
the rooms are spacious, clean, lots of different toys/books. They sing, play music, messy play etc. My boy has learned so much, he eats well, shares his toys. A fantastic place for little ones!!!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.719)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.719) out of 10 for Mayfield Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.886 for Mayfield Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (117 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.886

  • 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 4.833 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mayfield Nursery is based on 11 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 66 number of registered child places is 13.2. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.2 = 0.833

  • 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.
