Both my children have loved it here! All the teachers are so amazing and kind. If we ever had any concerns or issues, they would deal with it immediately. The children are their priority and you can see that from the smiles that the children come home with. If I had more children, they would definitely
come here!

CherryTown is so personable. Even the staff who aren't in the room with our children still know our children. There's a warmth about the nursery that er really like. Great handovers from staff, make you feel that they know your children. Love the outside space. Like the community feel and that open
days are put on which is a chance to visit the nursery.
Both children love going there and the people.

My child loved coming to CherryTown since he started in the baby room. He has such a nice connection with all the staff here. He's been able to make lovely friends. We love that people also come in like bug companies which are my child's favourite. Communication is always amazing between parents and
staff.

We've had an exceptional experience at CherryTown Nursery and I couldn't be more pleased with the care and education my child has received over the past 18 months. The staff are CherryTown's biggest assets. They are warm, friendly and genuinely passionate about their jobs. They take the time to really
get to know children. The facilities are fantastic, clean and encouraging to younger children - highlighting the outdoor garden space which is fantastic and a great environment. Overall this nursery is outstanding. We feel confident and comfortable leaving my child in their care and it is clear this place is where children not only thrive but enjoy being here.

All the staff are so friendly and helped my 2 year old settle quickly when he first started. He also loves the huge garden! Parking on site which is a bonus for drop off/picks up. They have really supported his learning journey.

My daughter has been attending CherryTown Nursery since July 2024, following a friend's recommendation, we absolutely love it.
She gets excited on the way to nursery and I'm kept updated through the day on what she's eaten, what's she doing, nappy changes and sleep. I also really love the development
milestone updates as I know other nurseries do not provide these.
My daughter is so happy with at CherryTown and I love watching her development.

Our daughter has been attending CherryTown since June 2023, and we are extremely pleased with her experience. The staff are super friendly and genuinely care for all the children, fostering their individual development. Our daughter began in the baby and toddler room, progressed to Little Learners and
will soon transition to Pre-School, with each move being seamless. The team is remarkable, providing us with daily feedback. We wholeheartedly recommend the nursery and it's dedicated, competent, and compassionate team.

My son started at CherryTown nursery in September and as a first time mum, this was a very daunting experience. At first, he was very reluctant to leave me and this made it very hard to walk away each day, but the team were so incredibly supportive and provided thorough updates to put my mind at ease.
He now walks in extremely happily and ready to play. I cannot thank his key worker, and the rest of the team within little learners enough, for helping to settle him so well and make him feel safe. He has come on leaps and bounds in the few months he has been with CherryTown and we are so grateful to the whole team.

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at CherryTown Nursery

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We understand how daunting it can be as a first-time mum, and we're so glad our team could provide the support and reassurance you needed. It's heartwarming to hear how happily your son now walks in and how much he has grown in just a few months.

Our son was having a bit of trouble adapting to his new surroundings after moving up in 'classes' at the nursery, but after addressing our initial woes with his key worker they had tailored a plan over a period of time to ease him in and our problems were a thing of the past. He loves coming to CherryTown
and is always up at the crack of dawn and raring to go, excited to see his friends and the staff. When he comes home he has many stories to tell, and is very keen to tell us about his day.

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at CherryTown Nursery

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad to hear that with support from his key worker, your son was able to adapt and thrive in his new class. It's wonderful to know he's excited to come to CherryTown and enjoys his time with friends.

CherryTown Nursery has exceeded our expectations. We were blown away at the open day and fortunate to secure a place. Since starting we've watched our child grow in confidence and curiosity. The staff are super friendly, they're so good at keeping you updated and there's never a rushed feeling at drop
offs and pick ups. We highly recommend CherryTown, thank you for looking after our little one. Keep up the great work guys!

Our daughter was initially nervous and struggled to settle but with the help of the kind staff, she happily went in. We appreciate the extras the nursery does e.g. the Christmas show, parent afternoons, etc. The staff are friendly and approachable. We are looking forward to our youngest joining soon
too.

CherryTown is an absolutely wonderful place. My son comes out with a big smile every day, and so do the staff (even after a long day with lots of very energetic children!). He has always been busy and enjoys telling me all about the fun stuff they have done. I am so pleased I sent my children to CherryTown.

Both my oldest (who just started reception) and now my youngest (in 0-2) have enjoyed their time here.
No tears ever at drop off. Always happy when they come out.
The staff are so caring and friendly. I've known them all over the last four years, and I had no doubts about signing my youngest up when
I returned to work.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.893)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.893) out of 10 for CherryTown 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 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 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 4.893 for CherryTown Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (420 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 468 Ratings = 4.893

  • 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 CherryTown Nursery is based on 39 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 39 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.
