  • The Old Station Nursery Iver, Iver
The Old Station Nursery Iver has been a trusted member of the local community for over two decades, offering high-quality childcare that accommodates the schedules of working families.

Located conveniently on Iver High Street, the converted church building is across two floors and features a well-equipped outdoor area for children to play, all of which is Montessori inspired. Babies have their own room with stimulating activities such as soft play equipment, mirrors, and musical instruments that encourage their development and learning. Toddlers progress to a more structured environment that follows their interests, and Pre-Schoolers prepare for school with a curriculum designed for their skill, knowledge, and attitude development.

The nursery offers exceptional care, enriched by unique learning opportunities for your child, such as child-friendly cooking and language classes. These classes are inspired by the Montessori approach, fostering meaningful connections between children and the world around them, and help to equip children with valuable skills and deeper knowledge of the cooking process and other cultures.

The Old Station Nursery Iver’s 'Brighter Learning Approach' and language enrichment activities, including Baby Sing and Sign classes, Spanish instruction, and interactive multilingual books, enriches their core curriculum, encouraging children's natural curiosity and supporting their future success. The team believes that every child deserves a happy, healthy, and fulfilling life. As part of this approach, the nursery has three enhancements that add to the delivery of the curriculum.

Our son started at The Old Station Nursery in Iver in September this year, and being just 10 months old, I was quite nervous about him settling in and receiving the care and attention a baby needs at that age. But I was silly to worry, because from Day 1, the staff at the Iver branch have been amazing.
They truly show such warmth, care and patience with all of the children at the Nursery. I completely trust them to look after my son whilst I'm at work. If there's ever any issues they call straight away. He absolutely loves his time at Nursery - he gets to do lots of fun activities which we don't often do at home, and has developed in his social and walking skills wonderfully since being there. Thank you to all staff for making a busy Mum & Dad's lives much easier, and taking such good care of our baby.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Iver

Choosing to register your child in a day nursery can feel daunting at first. The team work hard with both parent and little one to ensure the settling-in process is as easy as possible, and we are so pleased to read about how you overcame your fears quickly.

The Old Station Nursery in Iver is an excellent facility with patient and positive staff.
My son has been attending for only two months and absolutely loves it. He always goes in smiling and comes out wanting to return. He enjoys the activities offered, such as story reading and baking, and I can see
his development in various skills.
I'm really happy that we chose this nursery and highly recommend it.

Old Station Nursery is a wonderful place with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are incredibly caring and truly dedicated. My child initially found it hard to adjust, but after a few days, she began to look forward to going and often talks about her teachers. The facility is clean, safe, and
offers a variety of activities for the kids to enjoy and learn from. I'm so glad we chose this nursery! I highly recommend it!

My son's first ever nursery. At first I was slightly concerned of how he would generally adjust but I must admit that the team in the nursery excels at providing care and support which had quickly helped him settle in. I love the app features and constant updates throughout the day. I can't recommend
highly enough.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Iver

Parent communications are so important when settling children into a nursery, and we are pleased you have felt reassured. We look forward to supporting your son in his first steps of education.

I have found The Old Station Nursery Iver a very reassuring place to leave my child during the day. It really does feel like home away from home, and I can see that all the staff have made lots of effort helping my child settle into nursery. I also feel that my child has become more independent and
feels secure being left there!

The Old Station Nursery Iver is a beautiful setting, all staff are very friendly and helpful. My son loves going every day, he even asks to go when it's the weekend. We moved from a different nursery and the transition was quick and handled so smoothly, my son settled in straight away. The handovers
are quick and easy in the mornings with no tears and in the evenings he comes out smiling and I am told everything he has done that day. The app they have is updated with everything so I'm never guessing what he's eaten or done in the day. Any queries I have are handled promptly and professionally. It's nice to feel at ease that my child is getting the best possible care he can. The food menus run on a three week basis with a huge range of food that is nutritious and my son loves. It's also cooked onsite with the chef. Our family is so happy with the move and would recommend this setting ten times over.

Reply from Angela Bailey, Head of Customer Experience at The Old Station Nursery Iver

We care as much for our parents as we do the children in our care, so we are pleased to read that you feel at ease knowing your son is happy and receiving delicious and nutritious meals at our setting.

Lovely nursery. My son joined at 9 months old. Staff in the baby room are so caring and nurturing.
My son has enjoyed going from a young age which was very reassuring for me going back to work
My daughter is now in preschool, she has thoroughly enjoyed her years at this nursery, she has made lots
of friends and really likes her teachers. She particularly enjoys Spanish, yoga and superstar sports and cooking as well as the montessori based activities.
As a parent, I find the staff very approachable. I appreciate that there is a variety of tasty hot food cooked on-site. We have enjoyed attending special events such as Christmas concerts and stay-and-play sessions.
Would highly recommend this nursery

Staff at The Old Station Nursery in Iver has shown dedication, and patience to my daughter by making every day a fun environment to go to.
All the lovely staff were part of my daughter’s development and 1st stages in life and helped prepare her for school through creative and educational activities.
One
of the most impressive achievements was teaching her to write her name and they also learnt the months of the year, the days of the week, the numbers, etc. through play and songs that were easy to memorise.
I love the fact that I could actually be part of her day at the nursery by looking at all the activities in the app. I will recommend this nursery to everyone!

The Old Station Nursery in Iver provides a safe and lovely environment for my little one. In the two months he’s attended, I’ve noticed a great amount of development in his skills and movement. The staff are very personable and make an effort to update parents on the child’s progress after each session,
which I find valuable.

Old Station Nursery in Iver: A Haven for Growing Minds.
As a parent entrusting the care and education of my child to Old Station Nursery in Iver, I couldn't be more impressed with the exceptional level of care and dedication provided by the staff.
From the moment you step through the door, it's evident
that this is not just a daycare facility; it's a nurturing haven for growing minds. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, creating a sense of belonging for both children and parents alike. One of the aspects that truly sets Old Station Nursery apart is its commitment to individualized learning. Each child is valued as a unique individual, and the staff takes the time to tailor their approach to meet the specific needs and interests of each child. Whether it's through engaging activities, creative play, or structured learning opportunities, every child is given the tools they need to thrive.

Enrolling my daughter in this nursery school has been a delightful experience, largely due to the warm and nurturing nature of the staff. The school's facilities are top-notch, offering a stimulating and safe environment for children to learn and play. Previously, my daughter attended a school that
wasn't the right fit for her, and she was hesitant about starting anew. However, in a very short time, she has grown to love this nursery, eagerly looking forward to each day she spends there. As a parent, it's reassuring to see her so happy and engaged, and I'm incredibly grateful to the school and its wonderful staff for making such a positive impact on our lives.

Reply from Joanne Wright, Chief Marketing Officer at The Old Station Nursery Iver

Wow, a wonderful review thank you. We will be sure to share this with the team and they will be delighted to hear the impact they are making to your daughter.

The Old Station Nursery in Iver is a clean, nurturing and welcoming environment for children to play and learn. My child enjoys attending this nursery and has grown in confidence with the support of the exciting and creative activities and events that the staff plan for the children. My child loves
many of the delicious meals provided (much more than my cooking!) and the feedback given to me at the end of each day helps me to discuss with my child about the things they have learnt during that day. This allows me to develop his learning at home which I really appreciate! The care this nursery provide is second to none and there is great effort taken to ensure that every child leads their own learning and feels comfortable away from their parents. I am so pleased I chose this nursery!

The nursery is excellent, especially the staff. The ladies working with children there truly enjoy their work and take very good care of the kids. My child is very happy there, which is the most important thing. I am rating all at the highest, based on the overall experience and not on the nuanced knowledge
of every single thing.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.869)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.869) out of 10 for The Old Station Nursery Iver 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.869 for The Old Station Nursery Iver is calculated as follows: ( (221 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 251 Ratings = 4.869

  • 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 Iver is based on 21 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 67 number of registered child places is 13.4, which has been reached with 21 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.
