A newly refurbished nursery, The Old Station Nursery High Wycombe, has been carefully designed to support children's development in a natural and engaging learning space. The modern and engaging rooms provide an inclusive space where children are free to play, learn and explore.

With space for up to 30 children per day, the smaller size makes the nursery unique, allowing them to offer a welcoming space where the team are able to get to know each child in their care. The nursery offers exceptional care, enriched by unique learning opportunities for your child. One such experience is child-friendly cooking classes, helping to equip children with valuable skills and deeper knowledge of the cooking process.

Recognising the importance of outdoor play, The Old Station Nursery High Wycombe ensures children have plenty of chance to explore the world around them and a brand new garden space is soon to be added to the nursery.

The Old Station Nursery High Wycombe is ideally located on the grounds of Manor Farm School so that when the time comes, the transition to ‘big school’ is as smooth and seamless as possible. They work closely with parents to ensure that the children are exceptionally prepared for their next stage of learning.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5

This nursery seemed to have an issue with staff retention, with staff turnover very high. Other nurseries I have experienced do not seem to have this same problem.
My child also seemed to not get enough stimulation or challenge in learning. I based this on my child's bad behaviour and my experience
when visiting, and also handovers. My child's new nursery does far more activities and my child is far more stimulated, and as a result, is much better behaved.
Additionally, my child was sick very frequently at this nursery, which is not the case in his new setting.

Our 8 month old son has just started at the nursery, and we are thrilled to bits with how much he is enjoying it and his development even in such a short space of time.


But above all else, we cannot speak highly enough of every single nursery worker. They are all truly wonderful, caring people,

and really helped our son settle in despite a lot of tears during the first few days. On top of that, they kept us parents in the loop with regular phone calls and updates during the first few weeks to really put us at ease too. Only a few weeks in and our little man now gets very excited to see his new friends each morning.


So for us this is not just a chance to leave a positive review for a special group of people, but as much an opportunity to say thank you to them all for being so wonderful with our son and keeping him smiling and giggling all day.

My little one has been attending this nursery since she was one. She's happy with all the activities and has learned a lot. We can see the nursery is getting a good lift after joining a bigger group which is a plus. Staff are all very friendly and great. Overall very happy with them.

It is a safe and clean nursery. My child is happy there but not enough challenge of learning. It would be better if they can prepare my child for Reception during pre-school time earlier. I have noticed he has done more regular curriculum learning not till summer term.

Thank you for your comments, we really appreciate it!
We value your input, and we'll take your suggestions into consideration to enhance the preparation. Our aim is to ensure that every child is ready for the next step in their educational journey.

Overall good. My younger daughter is happy to go to the nursery and enjoys staying there. She is having good time. She is more expressive; telling stories, greeting and having a good time with parents after having had 1-2 weeks of sessions there. Happy to recommend. Worth attending.

Brilliant nursery. Staff do good handovers at the end of the day. My child is very happy going there and has learned a great deal since attending nursery. My son tells me all about what they have been doing and loves to come home singing me songs he's learnt from nursery.

My daughter moved here in September and is off to a flying start. She's been welcomed, made so many friends and really progressing. The staff are wonderful and friendly and helpful with all of my concerns (even down to concerns about sleeping). Knowledgeable, friendly and amazing team.

Overall, happy with the nursery. My son is happy to go and looks forward to going. The new decor was much needed and it looks like a much nicer environment. The workers I see regularly are great and I can see they have worked hard to turn things around - keep going, you're doing a great job! My only
concern is the amount of illness my son gets, even almost two years in.

The standard of care for my child is exceptional. I am always confident of his welfare when he is with you. Knowing he's getting nutritional food and having fun amongst learning at the same time. Simply spot on!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.670)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.670) out of 10 for The Old Station Nursery High Wycombe is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 46 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 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 4.670 for The Old Station Nursery High Wycombe is calculated as follows: ( (408 Excellents x 5) + (108 Goods x 4) + (27 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 549 Ratings = 4.67

  • 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 The Old Station Nursery High Wycombe is based on 44 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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 44 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.
