The Old Station Nursery Marlow has recently undertaken a huge refurbishment. Finished in October 2023, the setting has been carefully designed to meet the individual and everchanging needs and developmental stages of each age group.

The organic enhanced nursery has an immersive curriculum where children actively engage in nurturing plants, tending to their growth, and harvesting produce, acquiring valuable insights into plant life, various fruits and vegetables, and culinary techniques. The nursery is also cookery-enhanced, highlighting specially designed cooking and baking tools prioritising children's safety. The skills learnt through cooking can be utilised across other aspects of life.

Each room at Marlow is equipped to support the learning and development of children at different ages, and the nursery has created an environment that allows children to develop relationships with themselves, others and the world around them. The nursery follows a Montessori inspired approach alongside its Forest School enhancement, which is all about exploration and supported risk-taking through learner-inspired hands-on experiences in a natural setting.

I would highly recommend this nursery/preschool to anyone.
My daughter has settled in so well, and she loves it. On the days she doesn't go, she asks to go to school.
The staff are so caring and welcoming, and every morning, welcomed with smiles. They're so helpful with any problems you are having
and helpful with anything that you might be struggling with. For example - potty training.
Highly recommend, 5 out of 5.

Our 1-year-old has grown in confidence since attending this nursery. She's so much better at being around other children and is learning loads. She also has a real bond with the ladies who work there. She's happy to go in every day and seems to genuinely enjoy it.
We have nothing but praise for the
staff. It's nice to know that our daughter is being well cared for.

Amazing nursery! My daughter was a 'covid' baby so going to groups or even meeting people wasn't happening due to lockdowns. I first met management who showed me around and answered all my questions (and I had a lot ha!) and she was so helpful, supportive and understood that my daughter hadn't had the
'normal' introduction to life. The nursery rates and options are great compared to other nurseries and they try to accommodate as much as possible. When my daughter started nursery she was introduced to the nursery manager and they have such a beautiful relationship (my daughter even gets upset when she has to say goodbye to her). She and the team have transformed my daughter into such a happy, fun-loving, independent little girl. She used to be quite sheepish with others due to covid but with their help and support it's like she is a different child and I can't thank the management and the team enough. I would definitely recommend sending your child to The Old Station Nursery Marlow.

Our child has been going for over a year. He seems to be really enjoying the nursery. The staff are genuinely caring. I like they don't have too many kids, they have lots of space both indoors and outdoors. Children of different ages mix together. It's really more like a family setting. It's funny to
watch the kids forming friendships early. They do a lot of different activities with the children - they even let my then 13-month-old do his own pizza. I'm really glad we ended up going there. They could use the outside space more but appreciate it's actually too big.

Lovely staff and very happy children! Our eldest recently started school after 3 years at nursery and has made a fantastic start, a large part of this being due to her early years at this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.948)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.948) out of 10 for The Old Station Nursery Marlow 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 4.948 for The Old Station Nursery Marlow is calculated as follows: ( (238 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 250 Ratings = 4.948

  • 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 Marlow 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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8, 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.
