All staff members are very friendly and my son loves going there and looks forward to seeing his friends and the carers. He really loves the music sessions and running around in the huge garden. Oak Tree brings a fun, caring and stimulating environment for the children. My son settled quickly with the
help of staff, very supportive, helpful, look after our little precious one. I cannot thank the team enough for assisting with our child development and would have no reservations about recommending Oak Tree.

Our little boy loved it here, the one to one attention he received and the obvious care and dedication of the staff made it a great option for us. Every effort is made to keep parents abreast of the child's development and the events and trips organised were excellent.

My son always happily went to play with his friends at Oak Tree Nursery. It was a gentle, nurturing place and he always had a smile on his face. My youngest always wanted to stay when I was dropping off my oldest! Would highly recommend.

My twin boys enjoyed their time at the nursery and frequently ask to go back to visit their teacher. The nursery is well managed with friendly and accommodating staff members. They have great resources available and provide opportunities including a day trip to the farm.

The manager has always been friendly and helpful. All the staff have been working hard. It's a homely nursery. I think it's a very nice place to keep your little one happy and learning different things. I will recommend my friends who have young kids.

All staff members are very friendly and the children love going and look forward to seeing their friends and the carers. Oak Tree provides both a fun, caring and stimulating environment. There are varied activities throughout the day which are well planned and managed and create a wonderful atmosphere
for little ones to develop and grow.


I couldn’t really be more complementary about the staff who are genuinely caring (just nice people) and supportive to the children in their learning.
I cannot thank the team enough for assisting with our children’s development over the last 10 months and would have no reservations about recommending Oak Tree.

The nursery makes learning such fun the children

love going and look forward to seeing their "friends" and certain staff members. I cannot thank the team enough for assisting with their development over the last 10 months.

Myself but more so my daughter had a really enjoyable experience with the nursery.
The staff were very welcoming, friendly and professional.
My daughter fitted in really well and made lots of friends.
She also learned a lot of new skills during her time there.
I would definitely recommend the
nursery on to friends and family members who were in search of a nursery.

Very happy with my nursery. Staff are all very professional and kind to all kids.
They know the parents and their children well. My daughter is always happy to go and is waiting with her shorts on from 6am!
She is developing very quickly with help from the nursery staff. I get all updates about her
progress promptly.

The staff at Oak Tree have cared for both of my daughters over a period of several years and all experiences have been positive. The staff are always friendly and seem to really care about the children. Children are cared for in groups of a similar age so they are able to make close friendships and
have a preschool approach in the older age groups. They go on trips such as the theatre which my oldest has enjoyed. The administration is efficient. We are only moving on due to school start and would thoroughly recommend Oak Tree.

My son went to this nursery a couple of years ago and now I am taking my daughters. The nursery has a wonderful and caring manager who is loved by all children. The staff are very nice too. Never had any major issues and if there are any, all is resolved immediately. The nursery is clean and cosy. We
especially liked the baby unit. My daughter was willing to stay there with really caring people.

My son has been in this nursery for two years and five months. He has learnt a lot and gained so much confidence. He is happy with colleagues and nursery staff, enjoys the lovely garden, likes the food and always talks about what he learns there. The staff are excellent they care a lot about the children
and make them feel loved. I am so happy with the choice I have made and feel really sad that we will be moving areas so will have to change nurseries.

My son has settled in very quickly and very well at Oak Tree Nursery. On his first day, he had a friend that was 'assigned' to look out for him, this really, really helped my son as he soon felt part of the class.
The staff were very helpful, informative and supportive of me, a mum, who had had a
bad experience with a previous nursery.
My son is happy and confident, I know this because when I drop him off he runs in quickly to see his friends and when I pick him up he drags his feet because he wants to stay behind and play.
They have very healthy food choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. The amount of activities they have going on/upcoming is amazing.
My son really loves doing his French lessons and running around in the huge garden. Thank you all at Oak Tree Nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.792)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.792) out of 10 for Oak Tree Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 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 4.792 for Oak Tree Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (40 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.792

  • 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 Oak Tree Day Nursery 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, 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.
