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.

I am a huge fan of Mulberry Day Nursery I have two boys in the setting currently and another son who has recently "graduated" from preschool having been at Mulberry Day Nursery since he was 9 months old. The staff and general management are excellent- very accommodating, organised and friendly. The
development in all my children has astounded me. They learn so much due to the excellent activities, facilities and staff who truly care and make such an effort in following their progress, arranging activities to cater to their interests and helping with any weaknesses. Mulberry Day Nursery is simply a lovely nursery, one which I wouldn't hesitate in recommending.

My son started in the baby room at the beginning of January and he was 8 months old when he started. The staff within the room and the nursery as a whole really took the time to settle him into the setting. I can tell that he loves it. He is so happy to go to nursery and will just wave goodbye to us.
He is constantly busy and from the feedback we get, we can see all of the various amazing activities he takes part in, He really enjoys the food provided by the chefs on site and the whole transition has been made stress free due to many factors, one being having to only provide spare clothes as everything else is provided. I can tell that my son is really going to learn and thrive from being at this nursery.

I honestly couldn't recommend Mulberry Nursery highly enough. I have three children who currently attend the nursery, all of which thoroughly enjoy their time there. Staff are genuinely caring and show an interest in every child. The manager is excellent, very warm and approachable and does her best
to assist in any way she can. The structure of the day in each room and activities fit so well with home life, so settling my children into the nursery setting was seem less. The food and ability to provide for children with special dietary requirement is faultless too. All in all Mulberry is a wonderful nursery, one I am extremely happy with.

Our baby has been going to Mulberry nursery since 2011. I can still remember the days when we (my wife & myself) first started to find nursery in Maidenhead. Being our first child we were very conscious about choosing the right nursery. After few upsetting weeks (seeing our baby not very happy in other
surrounding nurseries) we decided to engage Mulberry Nursery. I must say since then till today there is not a single day of dissatisfaction. Mulberry Nursery is not a family based organisation where handful of people decides on the management style while dealing with kids. They are a corporate with single aim of excelling in child care. Over the years, I became very pleased seeing that the staff goes on official training, staff getting encouraged for certifications, staffs becoming part of corporate events with focus on interpersonal skills that eventually all aims at providing better child care for INCLUSIVE growth of every child. The tools & techniques used by the staff to help children grow and engage parents in child's growth also augments there capability as an organization with more thinking around children well being and growth (for example: sharing pics with parents, enabling parents to write improvement areas that they would like to see in their child, rotating story books so that child can take the book home and swap it with another one later, providing detailed info on child's day, etc). Not to mention they have excellent facility to engage children in different activities. Not only this I have seen over the years the iterations of even further expanding their building to bring something new to make it more playful and engaging. Moreover, I am also very happy with the skilled child minders they employee. I am sure they have a rigorous interview process to find a right person.


Hope this helps.

A very good nursery. I liked it as soon as I walked in and I am impressed that the age groups are separate e.g 0-1 yr, 1-2yr, 2-3yr. 3-4yr, so children grow and learn with their age group. Lots of educational facilities as well as just play. Great gardens. Great staff. My daughter had a wonderful time
there. They even worked with toilet training and getting her to eat better. Overall very happy with Mulberry.

My son has really enjoyed his time in nursery! He has so much fun singing, making a mess, painting and playing with his friends. The food is wonderful too. He is soon moving rooms which is exciting but also sad! In particular we will really miss his key worker, she has been fantastic and my son and
her built an incredible bond. Much of his development is down to her. Thank you!

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.
