My son started attending Seabrook when he was 11 months old, I was very anxious about leaving him as he had not been left with anyone else besides grandparents before. The staff at Seabrook were so professional and caring, they understood my worries and really helped support me through this difficult
transition. I looked at many nurseries before choosing Seabrook and I knew as soon as I walked into the building that this was the place I wanted to send my child, the atmosphere was lovely all staff welcoming and the manager really went above and beyond with showing me around the nursery and answering my many, many questions that I had. It was lovely that the manager made that effort to get to know the parents and even now stops to have a chat with me to check in and see how both my son and I are doing.
Seabrook really is an outstanding nursery and my son has thrived in their care.
Thank you Seabrook.

My son joined Seabrook in 2019. He settled in really well and the staff in Ladybirds have been amazing and supportive. Seabrook has many events throughout the year. I and my son have attended some and it is a great way to meet other parents and a chance for the children to see each other out of the
nursery. Overall an amazing nursery and I look forward to seeing him go through.

Both my children have thrived at Seabrook. So much emphasis is put on an individual child's interest which makes every child feel valued. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed being taken to Tesco's Bakery to explore her love of baking.
The staff really care about every child and my child's development has
really improved from their support.

Both my children attend (or have done). I couldn't recommend this childcare setting enough. Excellent doesn't cover the superior care that is given.

This is the best experience for our child and also us the parents. The child is well looked after and the teaching at Seabrook is more hands-on. We are also told about the child's progress and what we need to work on for our child's progress which we really appreciate. I would strongly recommend this
nursery to my family and friends as it is the most unique nursery for any kid to learn and progress fast and achieve milestones on time.

Our experience with Seabrook has been amazing. This is our 4th daughter to attend the nursery. All 4 of our daughters have had amazing care, excellent experiences and have learnt and grown so much. We thank all the staff over the years for all their help, support and dedication of care. We would highly
recommend this nursery.

I have two sons who have both attended Seabrook from 2009-2012 and 2016 to date. During both of these times, I feel that my boys have had outstanding care. Currently, my son is in preschool and I feel that he is well prepared for the transition to school. The room setting is engaging and the care is
outstanding. I cannot recommend Seabrook highly enough.

My granddaughter comes to Seabrook and really enjoys coming to nursery. When I have her in the week she is always talking about what she has done in nursery. When I picked her up I got asked to go grandparents day, which is a great idea!
Lovely nursery, great staff.

My son started Seabrooks in January 2019. Now every day he comes home and says to me 'mum I had a good day', I am extremely happy with the service provided by Seabrook, it has become his 'home from home'. The staff are friendly, approachable and professional. The food menu is extremely well planned
and I am happy to know my son is well fed, well looked after. Sleeping comfortable and happy.

My daughter loves Seabrook so much.
Her key worker in Bumblebees was amazing to her and supported us as parents. My daughter was potty trained in 2 weeks.
Her progress has come on so well in the last year and I cannot thank Seabrook staff enough.

My child has thrived here. He is happy, confident and very excited since he has started. The staff communicate to us on a regular basis through the use of apps and face to face.
We are pleased we chose Seabrooks.

We couldn't have wished for a better experience than what we have received at Seabrook.
Everyone from the management team to the key workers have always gone above and beyond what we expected and really care for the children. That may sound obvious but I've experienced other childcare where it seems
the people just did this for a job but I just didn't feel like this at Seabrook. The communication is also incredible at Seabrook, for example, I could mention something to a key worker and a few days later, I'd be asked for an update by someone in a different role.

I just wanted to say a very sad goodbye. I can't thank you all enough for what you have done with both my children. They have had the most amazing time here over the past 5 years. You have helped shape both children into two loving, caring and enthusiastic kids and for that, I can't thank you enough.
Not only with the children, you have also supported me through difficult life events always ensuring any changes wouldn't unsettle the kids too much. I will miss you all a lot and so will the children. Thank you.

My son has been going to Seabrook Nursery for a month now and I only have great things to say about it. He has settled in with no problems with all the friendly and caring staff.
The parent and staff communication is great.
Being able to see what he is doing each day and sharing home activities helps
with his development. Highly recommended.

We're genuinely over the moon with our son's whole time at Seabrook. We've bonded with all of the staff, our son has too and he has made loads of friends.
Sadly it has now come to an end but we would undoubtedly return back if we had any more children.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.949)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.949) out of 10 for Seabrook Day Nursery (Luton) 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 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.949 for Seabrook Day Nursery (Luton) is calculated as follows: ( (422 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 432 Ratings = 4.949

  • 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 Seabrook Day Nursery (Luton) is based on 35 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 104 number of registered child places is 20.8, which has been reached with 35 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.
