  • Cherry Tree Bilingual Day Nursery / English-Spanish, Hemel Hempstead
Cherry Tree Bilingual Day Nursery - English-Spanish is for all children and all parents who believe in early learning and having the best possible head start in life.

The nursery is greatly influenced by the work of psychologists such as Montessori, Piaget and Konrad Lorenz who believed most children are born with tremendous powers and sensitive periods for learning. These periods from birth to five years are vital and crucial to the child’s whole future.

Second language learning (Spanish) is introduced during the children's daily routine in a fun way by in-house native Spanish teachers. Children are greeted in Spanish (hola, Buenos dias, como estas?) and asked during the day at meals times if they would like milk or juice (Leche, or Zumo) for breakfast. Children sing nursery rhymes and learn parts of the body, days of the week, months of the year and the colours in Spanish.

Staff have on-going training and a key worker system is in place to make sure parents get regular feedback and that each individual child has their development prioritised.

Children enjoy fun sessions of Spanish language and can benefit from access to a large garden, farm animals plus musical activities with guitar, piano, saxophone and percussion.

Cherry Tree Nursery has been an absolute lifesaver for me as a busy mum with an unpredictable schedule. Their flexibility with hours has made it so much easier to balance my commitments and I truly appreciate how accommodating they are. Most importantly, my daughter absolutely loves her time there.
The staff are warm and nurturing and it's clear they genuinely care about children. I couldn't recommend Cherry Tree Nursery more highly.

This is the best nursery my son has ever attended. I have tried him in three other nurseries and it was unsuccessful. I had to pull him out because he was not happy. But since he started this nursery, he has learned so fast and he is always happy to be here. I would recommend if you want a place where
your child is put first and 1 to 1 care is impeccable, bring them here.

I am very pleased with Cherry Tree Nursery. My son has been going there since he was 9 months. He's settled in quite well and now is always happy to go. All the staff are friendly and professional. Also, the manager is very helpful and understanding. We get daily updates of all his activities during
the day via the app and that is quite useful. Have and would recommend Cherry Tree Nursery to everyone.

My nephew has been in the nursery since July 2023. I am very happy that he is going to the Cherry Tree Nursery. The staff are really friendly and they work hard to make my nephew happy. The nursery provides a wide range of activities for the children that help them socialise, play and learn. I highly
recommend the nursery and I definitely will register also my child there in the future.

I highly recommend this nursery, my daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 3 years old. She is still in this nursery after school and school holidays. She loves to go there and she always comes home with a different experience. The nursery is going through some refurbishment, they are
making it more exciting to children. My daughter tells me each day what new thing is in there. She loves the new outdoor area.

I'm really happy with this nursery. Very clean and friendly. All ladies are very attentive to the children. My son required a lot of attention and understanding and he definitely received it, his behaviour has improved and now he is much calmer. Really appreciate their hard work.

My daughter loves going to nursery, she always comes home with a smile on her face and full of beans. She always talks about playing with her friends and what she does during the days. The staff are always friendly and very welcoming and very good at communicating with us about how she is getting on
and how well she is doing. Overall a happy parent.

I was very fortunate to find this nursery. My son came from another nursery and I was surprised at how fast and well he settled. My son really enjoys going into nursery, the staff are amazing and are really attentive to my son's needs. He has progressed so much since starting at Cherry Tree. His speech
is better (I get compliments all the time about how well he speaks for his age). He is currently potty training and he can identify when he needs to use the potty. The staff are all lovely and should keep up the amazing work they're doing. Thank you to all at Cherry Tree. I always recommend when asked by friends. My son is also now able to sing in Spanish which is astonishing! Thank you very much.

My daughter has special needs (ASD) and she adores the nursery and is delighted to go every morning. The staff are wonderful, so caring and it's a genuinely homely and warm environment where she can thrive. It's been incredible to see her develop, form friendships and generally have a brilliant time
in such a nurturing setting. Highly recommend and very grateful!

Having failed to settle into a different nursery, our child settled immediately into this lovely, caring environment where our child felt safe, secure and kept busy with lots of different activities both indoors and outside in the large gardens where different play and learning areas have been designated.
Our child's speech has improved considerably in a short time. She has made friends, she enjoys the home cooked food. The teeth cleaning after eating has helped improve this at home.

My children love going to Cherry Tree Nursery. Their development has come so much quicker since going to this nursery. They are always happy and willing to go.

I honestly have no complaint about this nursery.

Since my son was showing a difference in his development, just after he turned 2 years old, the nursery staff have been very supportive and supported my son's education, health and care plan (EHCP) application. The nursery has support in place for my son's educational needs.

My baby was very nervous to go to nursery or any other place because he has always been with us only but thanks to all staff, all of them are very kind, caring and helpful. I recommend this nursery to all my friends and family.
A few things which I really like about nursery are the food, it's tidy
and most important, the staff interaction with children.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Cherry Tree Bilingual Day Nursery / English-Spanish is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 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 22 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 5.000 for Cherry Tree Bilingual Day Nursery / English-Spanish is calculated as follows: ( (264 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 264 Ratings = 5

  • 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 Cherry Tree Bilingual Day Nursery / English-Spanish is based on 22 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 33 number of registered child places is 6.6, which has been reached with 22 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.
