We have had nothing but positive experiences with The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover. My youngest is currently in the sweet pea room and absolutely loves it. The staff are really fantastic and she bounds in excitedly every morning! Our eldest also went to The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover
and thoroughly enjoyed her time there.

We are very fortunate to have both our children at The Children's Room Nursery in Wendover (our daughter is 3 and our son is 1) - my daughter has been at Children's Rooms since she was 15-months-old, and we can't recommend the school and staff highly enough - it's warm, friendly, professional; they
have taken all the correct measures with regards to Covid and our children are safe, happy and thriving. They are involved in all sorts of activities (indoor and outdoor), the meals are delicious, and they love being at nursery. We were so worried about our son as he was a 2020 baby and hadn't had much socialisation at all... and because of the attentive staff, he has fitted right in and looks forward to his three mornings a week! We couldn't be happier with Thr Children's Rooms and are so grateful to have had them open during lockdown... it's given our kids some sense of normality and a safe space to learn and play... which has been amazing during this past year, which has been so difficult for so many.

I would highly recommend The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover. Both my sons have attended, with my youngest still there now until he starts school in September and they love it. My three year old actually cheers when he realises he is on his way to nursery in the morning and my eldest still wants
to come and see the staff he had when he was there. The staff are very conscientious and really care about all of the children. Their day to day is nicely varied and they cover a lot of subjects and interests. A particular commendation is how well they have coped with the pandemic, tailoring the nursery to keep the children and parents safe, yet keeping a level of normality for the children in such an uncertain time. Although at first sight it doesn't look like they have much outside space, actually the three different outside areas are lovely little havens which the children very much enjoy to spend time in. If you have any questions or concerns, it is easy to get in touch too. It'll be sad to leave!

The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover is a lovely day nursery! Our ten month old loves it there and is happy to be left with the girls every morning without any fuss. We were really nervous at first, sending such a young baby to a day nursery full time. She was seven months when she started but it's
clear it's done her a world of good, she's walking without support, has learned to clap and wave and engage with everyone, recognises songs sung to her and is generally a happy and confident little girl. I would highly recommend the nursery to any prospective parent. Regarding the outside space, yes, other nurseries have more garden space but the feel of the place overall and the staff won us over. Plus, young children don't need a huge amount of space to get fresh air and play in, also I know they take them to the park in summer months, so the garden size is not an issue for us.

My son has been at The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover for two years and he absolutely adores it. I have also been sending my daughter one day a week since January. Given she was a lockdown baby, I was so happy and impressed at how easily she settled into the nursery. Both children have made good
friends and I like the fact they will go through nursery and hopefully school together. The staff are caring, accommodating and I trust them completely. The children are always coming home with artwork, baking and plants that they have grown. The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover also offers a huge amount of outside playtime which I consider very beneficial. My son is currently potty training and the staff in his room have been nothing but supportive and cooperative. I have no issue recommending The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover and if I ever had any more children I would definitely send them there!

Both of my children have attended The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover in the past five years, one is still there and the other started school last autumn, both from small babies. I couldn't recommend the nursery highly enough. The staff are all lovely and adored by both children and parents. There's
always a number of creative activities for the children to get involved with and my two year old always cheers when I tell her it's a nursery day, which says it all really!

I was extremely nervous about leaving my eleven month old with any nursery, especially during Covid-19. However, I found The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover to be warm and professional on my visit. The manager put me immediately at ease with her knowledge and experience that shone through. My daughter
started the baby room and to my surprise, settled really quickly. Everyday the staff welcome her with a beaming smile, which is reciprocated by my daughter and at the end of the day, we get a detailed handover on the day. What she has done, her sleep, what she has eaten and any other relevant information. When I had a concern over a potential food intolerance, the nursery acted quickly and helped me move forward with a plan. I would highly recommend this nursery. For me, it ticks all the boxes.

We love The Children’s Room Day Nursery Wendover and feel very lucky to have found such a warm and wonderful nursery for our little boy. We’d looked at several settings but The Children’s Room Day Nursery Wendover really stood out due to their lovely staff, well maintained premises and happy children.
Our little one loves attending and is always met with a smile. The staff do so much to make each day fun and engaging for the children, including singing, painting, baking, lots of outdoor time in their gardens and sensory activities. We’re kept up to date with everything he’s doing and find communication easy and effective. He also enjoys lots of lovely nutritious meals cooked on site. I’d highly recommend the nursery and look forward to being part of it for several years to come.

The Children’s Room Day Nursery Wendover is a wonderful nursery which focuses on the children’s happiness and well-being. The staff are very friendly, caring, play, engage and interact with the children all day long. They are not glued to taking photos on iPad's, ignoring the children, as I found at
other nurseries I’d looked at. The nursery is well run, clean, efficient and flexible to accommodate parent’s ever-changing needs. My son enjoyed four very happy years at the nursery and their teaching set him up well for when he started school. My daughter currently attends and it is the highlight of her week. I cannot recommend the nursery highly enough.

My eighteen month old daughter has been attending The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover since she was was seven months old. She absolutely loves it there, they do so many fun activities with her and she is constantly talking about all the lovely staff who work there when she's at home. My son who
has special needs also went to The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover and they were just so brilliant with him. They really nurtured him there and supported us with the long and painful process to get him into a specialist school. What I like about it, is that all the staff seem to know all the children, no matter what room they are in. My son was almost like a celebrity when I took him back for a visit when my daughter started! They all genuinely care about the children and their development as if they were their own and as a parent, you can't ask for more than that!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.496)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.496) out of 10 for The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 10 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 4.908 for The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover is calculated as follows: ( (111 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.908

  • 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 4.588 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Children's Room Day Nursery Wendover is based on 10 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 85 number of registered child places is 17. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 17 = 0.588

  • 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.
