Great nursery. Both my boys have attended. My youngest is in preschool. They do Spanish, play ball and baking weekly. Plus lots of other good activities like beaconscot model village. Key workers are great. Can't just shout one out as they all know my boy and I appreciate everything they do to make
him feel loved, to help him learn and generally look after him. A couple of years ago they had a bad offstead. We considered taking my oldest out as he was young (toddler room) at the time. But, we put faith in the new manager and she has been great at helping out processes and activities in place to get them back to a solid standard. Keep doing what you are doing and thank you for all that you do. Would love to see forest school back. Keep the outdoor excursions going as often as you can. The science experiments and learning are super important and do get talked about at home. Keep going.

This nursery is simply outstanding! My granddaughter has been attending since October 2023 and I am beyond impressed with the care and attention she receives. The staff are so kind and nurturing, always making sure the children feel safe and happy. The nursery itself is immaculate, with beautiful toys
and a well-thought-out daily learning routine that really helps the little ones learn and grow. And the food is proper home-cooked meals that my granddaughter absolutely loves. It's a wonderful place, and I'm so grateful she has such a fantastic environment to thrive in!

I am so happy with this nursery for my granddaughter! The staff are just lovely-so warm, friendly, and clearly passionate about the children's well-being. They always take the time to update us on how she's doing, which gives such peace of mind. The nursery itself is beautifully maintained with lots
of learning activities to keep the children engaged. This is a truly special place, and I couldn't be more pleased with the care she receives!

I cannot recommend this nursery enough! The staff are absolutely wonderful, so warm, caring and attentive. Their Manager is amazing, and my daughter's key worker is just the best! You can really tell they love what they do and genuinely care about the children. My daughter has settled in so well and
I feel completely at ease knowing she's in such good hands. The nursery itself is spotless, with lovely toys and a fantastic structure to the day that keeps the children learning, engaged and happy. I also love how they keep parents updated regularly through the app or by phone when necessary, which is so reassuring. Plus, the home-cooked meals they serve are amazing-my daughter eats better here than at home! An absolutely brilliant place!

A lovely little nursery where my children have been very happy. They are able to take part in a wide range of fun and interesting indoor and outdoor activities like music, sports, crafts and cooking. They are well cared for and are treated and allowed to develop as individuals. Many of the staff go
above and beyond expectations to help which is really appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this nursery to other parents.

My daughter started at Childcare 4 U 6 weeks ago, the settling in process was handled so sensitively that we all settled there very quickly. The children have been delightful and run up to walk my daughter in when she looks unsure, evidence of the great care they are under. They do amazing and fun activities
throughout the week, walking to the shops to buy ingredients to make bread, Spanish, play ball. Most recently, they started a weekly forest school to much excitement of all the children. We are so happy we chose Childcare 4 U and thoroughly enjoy the company of the children and staff each day.

Both my children attended Childcare 4U nursery, most recently my son who has been there since he was 8 months old. He absolutely loved the nursery and was very happy to go there each day. The staff are also very caring and informative. Since the last change of management, there have been numerous improvements,
lots of activities for the children (rugby, play ball, Spanish lessons, musical activities, walking trips, library visits, baking, etc) and communication has been great too, with detailed handovers at pick up times. My son has grown to be a confident and happy little boy, fully prepared to start school. I would highly recommend it to other parents looking for the right place for their little one.

Reply from Sonia Luther, Nursery Manager at Childcare 4 U Beaconsfield

My child has been going to the nursery since he is 8 months and today is his last day before school. We stuck to Childcare 4 U post a tricky period and they have flourished on the other side. The staff is lovely and the manager is doing a great job. They do lots of activities like playball and Spanish
and the graduation ceremony was one of the cutest days I have ever experienced. All the staff put so much thought and effort. I am glad to see they are rated good now and have no doubt it will keep improving from here.

Both my children have attended the nursery, my daughter left for school in 2022 and my son is about to leave ready for school in September.
I have always found the staff to be extremely caring and I have never had any doubts about my children's safety/development whilst at Childcare 4 U. Both of my
children have been extremely shy but both came out of their shells and made some wonderful friends and lovely relationships with the staff.
The 2022 Ofsted report was disappointing and many parents took the decision to move their children. I am glad we stayed, the new manager appointed and the staff that stayed on have truly given their all to bring the nursery back up to par as reflected by their improved 2024 Ofsted report.
The nursery is inviting as soon as you walk through the door where you're greeted by a jungle-themed entrance hall. The extracurricular activities are great, my son loves the rugby sessions. Most importantly he is always happy at the end of each day and excited to tell me what he's been doing!

We joined the nursery in a tricky transition period following a poor Ofsted review, and we are delighted we stuck to our guns because the new management is doing a good job. They are now rated as 'Good' and I'm sure they will achieve 'Outstanding' next - they deserve to. They have created a very happy
environment for children to thrive.
Both my children (pre-prep and baby room) are safe, happy, stimulated, engaged, and have some lovely friends. The staff are great and communication is good too.
I would highly recommend Childcare 4 U to anyone looking for a nursery in Beaconsfield.

My daughter has been going to nursery every day since she turned 11 months old. She's now more than 3.5 years old and is happy every morning and excited to go there. The staff are absolutely amazing and she loves each and every one of them. I've seen great results with her, she can already write her
name, recognise letters, and count. Thanks to all the staff and to the manager who continues to make great efforts to make it a brilliant nursery.

Childcare4u has been a fantastic place for our child. From the moment he started in the baby's room to now leaving Pre-School, we felt welcomed and comfortable. The rooms are bright and cheerful, with lots of toys and learning materials.
The staff at Childcare4u are amazing. The staff are not only
good at their jobs but also care about the kids. They take the time to get to know each child and make sure they feel safe and happy.
The activities at the nursery are great. They cover everything from learning letters/numbers to playing and making friends. Our son especially enjoys the Play Ball, Rugby Tots, and the Spanish lessons. The hands-on activities and the big outdoor play area are also favourites.
Communication with parents is also excellent. The nursery sends regular updates/progress and newsletters, and staff are always available to talk to us if we have any questions.
Overall, we couldn't be happier. Our son is excited to go to nursery every day and is very happy there.

The nursery has come on leaps and bounds with the new management team in place who have rapidly addressed the issues identified at the previous Ofsted Review. The nursery has now achieved a Good rating, and are now aiming for outstanding. There has been a noticeable improvement under the new management
including better communication and settling in around room changes. The staff are also lovely and care for the children.

After a period of uncertainty and change, the nursery has come on leaps and bounds. Management is now good, and that shows in both the atmosphere and attitude of staff and the happiness of the children. My daughter loves her time here, and the level of care she receives is excellent.

I used this nursery for both of my children, with the younger one currently in preschool. It's a very friendly, flexible, and nurturing environment with lots of extracurricular activities like Spanish and Rugby tots, which my little one enjoys. The staff were endlessly patient with potty training and
were very supportive. My child loves going in and talks about friends and fun times almost constantly. I am happy with the nursery and would recommend it.

My son has been going to Childcare4U for 3 years. He is soon to move on to school and my daughter will be starting in September. We have always loved the nursery, but in particular, since new management took over. The environment is such that my son has formed some wonderful friendships and comes home
each day with something new he has learned. I am continually impressed by the activities (which I think means you do get value for money) - my son does Playball, Spanish, Rugby Tots, trips to the library and supermarket, and visits to the model village next door!
The staff have also made such an effort to engage with my daughter knowing she will be joining them soon.
I feel the staff know my son in the way I do - he can be quite tricky but they have taken the time to get to know him and he feels at home there. He's going to miss them all!

My son has attended Childcare4U since December 2021 and is currently in Pre-Prep. Since the appointment of the new manager in Summer 2023 things appear to have improved considerably and the atmosphere is positive. My son is genuinely happy to attend and has made lots of friends which has helped to develop
his social skills. I have confidence in the staff, many of whom have a lot of experience, and the team generally seems to work well together to provide a nurturing and educational environment. They greet the children with a smile every morning and provide parents with a handover at the end of the day. Communication at the nursery has improved with weekly email newsletters and regular, detailed progress/development reports (which provide useful insight into what my son is learning). My son enjoys his Spanish lessons, walks outside, and sports activities in the garden. It's also well-maintained and clean. I would encourage prospective parents to visit!

My son has been attending this nursery for a year. He is currently in pre-prep. We adore his teachers and the staff. He absolutely loves going to nursery. He has formed wonderful friendships and has truly thrived. Yes, the nursery has undergone some growing changes in the past year, and to be honest,
we did consider moving him under the old management, but I’m so glad we decided to stay. Since new management took over in fall 2023 we’ve noticed significant improvements in all areas including curriculum, staffing, and overall communication with parents.
Most importantly, the teachers and staff truly care about the children. They’ve created a fun, nurturing, and educational environment. We are truly happy our son is here, and I wanted to write a review reflective of the current environment.

Unfortunately, this nursery, which historically had a very strong reputation, massively went downhill in 2023, following a negative Ofsted report ("requires improvement"). We moved our 2 children from this nursery at the end of 2023, after we saw so many good staff members leave, several managers come
and go, 2 fees increases in 1 year (pretty unacceptable considering all the issues with the nursery) and very poor communication with parents about all of these issues. We were reluctant to disrupt our children by moving them, but we had given the new manager several opportunities to explain her improvement plans for the nursery and she never did (she didn't even turn up to a meeting we had arranged/taken time off work to attend) and so we felt we had no choice but to move.

I spent ages trying to find the right nursery for my daughter, where I walked in and just instantly had a great feeling!
Well, as soon as I walked into Childcare 4 U and met the manager I got that feeling! I have been sending my daughter for the past 2 months (she was 5.5 months old when she started
going) and she absolutely loves it! The manager, all the staff inc the chef are all amazing. I feel so comfortable dropping my daughter off in the morning, and she is so happy when I hand her over to them! The staff in the baby room feel like family, which is so special!
Thanks for all you do for my daughter Childcare 4 U.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.536)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.536) out of 10 for Childcare 4 U Beaconsfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.536 for Childcare 4 U Beaconsfield is calculated as follows: ( (198 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (13 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 261 Ratings = 4.536

  • 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 Childcare 4 U Beaconsfield is based on 19 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 63 number of registered child places is 12.6, which has been reached with 19 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.
