  • Mulberry Day Nursery (Maidenhead), Maidenhead
Mulberry Day Nursery is a beautiful property converted to create a happy, sociable nursery where every child is treated as an individual. Much of the character has been retained to provide spacious and interesting rooms with first class facilities.

The nursery has four main playrooms for individual age groups with sensory areas and quiet areas. There is a discreet CCTV system which enables parents to view their children when they first settle into nursery life, and an intercom system for security.

Outside there is a fully enclosed (safety surface) garden with age appropriate activities featuring a Mud Kitchen, construction area, gardening area, sandpit, music area, art studio, digging area, bug hunting area and an outdoor classroom. The nursery has a new Roof Garden which was completed in 2013. They have now achieved their Green Flag for Eco Schools.

We have used Mulberry Day Nursery to care for our sons for 3 years and will continue to use them for another 3 years! We love the facilities, the learning and the opening hours which make our working arrangements work. The staff are genuinely amazing, they have a special place in our children's hearts.
They are attentive, intuitive and having a genuine interest in the kid's growth and development.
We have also really appreciated that the staff rotate around the rooms so there is always a familiar face. The parent Zone app is also fantastic so you never miss out on what they get up to!!

My daughter started at Mulberry when she was 6 months old. Over the last 6 months, the care and attention she has received have enabled her to grow, develop and flourish. This has made returning to work a smooth process knowing that my daughter is settled and secure at the nursery. This has been achieved
by the excellent staff based in Caterpillars who demonstrate genuine warmth and care. We always look forward to nursery in our house, it's the best start to our week.

My son has been at Mulberry Nursery for 6 months and I have been delighted by his progress.
He is extremely fond of the staff and is genuinely happy to arrive every morning. His speech and counting have come on leaps and bounds since joining.
The menu is extremely varied and healthy also. The children
spend a lot of time outside and Action Kids is a big favourite. Have already recommended to several local families.

We are very sad to leave such a good nursery. The twins started at 11 months and we are now leaving (aged 2 years 9 months). The girls started because I needed a break (having no family in the UK) and I was able to get that joining. At Mulberry everyone smiles every morning and seem genuinely happy
to work with kids and in Mulberry I always knew the girls were safe. I really like the fact that the staff are consistent and the girls knew all the staff when leaving.

My son has been with mulberry from before 2 years old and ever since the staff have been really good at helping him settle and develop in all respects, especially in his confidence in being independent. The facilities are great at supporting their structured activities. I cam really see how much learning
my son has had as every time he comes home, he surprises us with something new. Many thanks to all the staff of Mulberry.

We are very happy about our child coming to Mulberry. We feel relaxed and comfortable dropping him every morning. Our child has settled very quickly and very nicely.
He looks forward to coming here. He eats well and seems very happy overall which reassures our choice of Mulberry was right.

My son has happily adapted to the nursery routines and constantly talks about the practitioners at home. It's comforting to know that my son is at home. It's comforting to know that my son is in good hands and learning and socialising with a smile on his face.

Our son has settled into Mulberry Nursery really quickly and absolutely loves his key workers and staff in his room. They have a lot of outdoor play time which is great and the indoor activities are fantastic too - very varied, structured, educational but always with a lot of fun.
Great new healthy
menus too and very engaged staff and management.
I'm very happy with Mulberry and so is our son.

We have been meaning to write to say how happy we have been over recent weeks with the progress our daughter is making and in particular to pay tribute to the excellent work the daycare practitioner is doing with her.
Our daughter is becoming more vocal by the day and while there is a long way to go
in terms of catching up, she does appear to be closing the gap. We can really see the devotion and commitment the daycare practitioner is showing towards our daughter and our daughter is picking up on this enthusiasm and has clearly bonded well with her.
This is just the kind of attention that our daughter needs and we are delighted that Mulberry is being able to provide it.

Our son has already bonded with her. He eats very well and has plenty to do every day. We are looking forward to him having

My child has just started in this nursery. The staff have been really helpful in making the settling in easy for my child.
They give me details of the day when I pick up my child in the evening, including what and how much he ate.
So far the experience has been really good. The nursery manager also
sent a welcome email offering help when we need it as parents.

Our little one started at Mulberry at 9 months and has been there 8am-6pm, 5 days a week, for nearly four years, leaving for school in September. The first day we left him he could hardly sit up unaided and we wondered whether he was too young to be without us, never mind for such a long day. I can
honestly say we needn't have worried - he has loved his time at nursery and we have never had anything to worry about. We have seen him develop into a happy, confident boy and the staff and management at Mulberry have played an important role in his development. As an only child, his ability to mix in small and large groups and his willingness to share and take turns is strongly influenced by his experiences at the nursery. There is good rigour around the children's general development and this is managed well, but for me, the most important thing has always been the caring, loving environment that has been obvious throughout. He's looking forward to school, but he'll be very sad to leave too.

Our daughter has had a great time at Mulberry. All of the carers are brilliant. She has changed from a shy and quiet girl into a confident, well mannered and contented one.
We are very grateful for all the hard work and fun they carers have put on. We will miss the nursery terribly.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.695)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.695) out of 10 for Mulberry Day Nursery (Maidenhead) 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 15 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 4.871 for Mulberry Day Nursery (Maidenhead) is calculated as follows: ( (155 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.871

  • 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 4.824 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mulberry Day Nursery (Maidenhead) is based on 15 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 91 number of registered child places is 18.2. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.2 = 0.824

  • 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.

Kristina Edgson

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2015

Kristina is the Manager of Mulberry Day Nursery and has a wealth of experience, having worked in the early years sector for 16 years. Kristina has an NVQ Level 3 and NVQ Leadership and Management and has worked at Childbase since 2015.


What is your favourite feature of your nursery?
I really like the homely feel we have here and that it feels like a second home for so many. I like our Preschool room and the fact it has lots of different rooms so the children can focus on different things in each space. They also have their own outdoor terrace upstairs to be able to explore things they can’t necessarily do in the shared garden. Our main priority in the nursery is to help the children feel safe and secure so they are able to thrive throughout their learning. We have a large outdoor space which we utilise a lot and ensure the children experience the outdoors in all weathers.


What are you most proud of about your nursery/team?
I am really proud of my team for the way they build bonds with the children and make the nursery feel like this is their second home too. We have achieved our Eco Flag with distinction which the children are passionate about. We really enjoy getting to know all our families and making the parents just as at home as the children.
