  • St Paul's Nursery, London
St Paul’s is situated in a beautifully converted church on Dock Street. The nursery is located within walking distance of Aldgate East and Tower Hill underground stations, Tower Gateway (DLR) and Liverpool and Fenchurch Street mainline stations, making the nursery an ideal location for commuters and local residents.

The building has recently undergone a significant refurbishment which has helped to create a vibrant and spacious environment for children to explore and engage in free flow activities. Children participate in daily walks and explore their local community, visiting Swedenborg Park, the Docks and a nearby playground.

The first time I visited St Paul's Nursery, I knew it was the one I was looking for and today I’m still very happy to have my son there. The staff is very kind and I particularly appreciate that the staff pay attention to give detailed feedback of my son’s day, what he ate, the activities, the rests,
what he enjoyed. That makes me feel that I have spent a bit of the day with him. I also appreciate that the nursery is amid the most spacious one I visited. I would highly recommend this nursery as the staff are really aiming to provide great care.

St Paul's is a very friendly and caring environment from the moment you walk into the building you are greeted by the wonderful management team who are so helpful and supportive. The staff provide so much feedback at the end of the day on the activities the children have done throughout the day, which
really makes you feel involved in your child's day. No question is too small for staff at St Paul's. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parents looking.

We absolutely love St Paul's Nursery. Our son enjoys himself thoroughly during his days there. We feel very supported by the staff who go out of their way to ensure that he is learning, getting into a routine and having a good time. During pickups, we are told about his day so we feel like we aren't
missing out on the fun he is having. Additionally, the nursery ethos is quite flexible - they have allowed us to use cloth nappies, continue to provide breast milk and help establish the nap schedule we asked for. The carers are the heart of the nursery and it is so obvious that they really care about the children.

A caring, warm and welcoming environment for our child. Our son has been attending St Paul’s for over a year, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the care that he has been given. The staff are warm, bubbly and friendly and our son very much enjoys going to nursery.
Our son, like most children, clung
to my leg when he first went to nursery, however, within no time this changed and he was eager to attend. Now as a mobile child he runs into the room without looking back, excited to spend the day at nursery with his friends. This is testament to the staff and the care that they provide giving us peace of mind that our child is in an environment which is nurturing, caring and friendly.
The staff are accommodating to parents wishes and give daily feedback. They have greatly assisted us with potty training, ensuring our child eats healthy balanced meals and sleep training.
The setting is very large and provides ample space for the children to explore and play.

My son has attended St Paul's Nursery for a bit more than a year since he was 2 years old and we were very pleased with it. The nursery staff are very warm and kind, they are very accommodating with parents’ wishes. They helped my son with potty training and they were very patient as it took him quite
a while. They also give you updates every day on what children eat, and any activities they take part in. The only recommendation I would give would be to have for more frequent updates on the child’s progress and maybe more pictures. Overall we were very happy with the nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.192)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.192) out of 10 for St Paul's 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 9 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 4.917 for St Paul's Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (99 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.917

  • 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 4.275 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St Paul's Nursery is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.375

  • 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.
