Our little one has been at Lord Williams's School Day Nursery for around 7 months now. Since she started just before she turned 1. She has learnt so many skills and loves socializing more since making friends at nursery. She has a great relationship with the staff and the daily logs and photos we get
to see ensure our trust with the company. So glad we chose Lord Williams's School Day Nursery for our daughter.

I cannot speak highly enough of our kid's experience with Lord Williams Day Nursery. The manager and her staff provide a warm, caring and loving atmosphere and it's truly become a home away from home for our two little ones. We get detailed daily feedback and they're always on hand to provide support
when needed, such as with potty training or learning phonetics. Our kids love going here and always have big beaming smiles each time we drop them off. They also organise lots of family-friendly events which really helps bring parents, their kids and the local community together.

As soon as we walked into the nursery I knew it was the one for our daughter. Friendly and welding it felt like a home from home. Over a year on and I still feel the same. Our girl is thriving and we cannot fault the care and support the team at the nursery gives.

After nearly two years I can certainly say that our son loves going to Lord Williams Day nursery! The staff are all so kind and caring. We always have a warm arrival and are given useful feedback about our son's day at pick-up. We are currently potty training and the staff have been so patient and helpful.
The nursery does a huge range of activities with the children and this includes having external dance and rugby lessons which my son loves. The food is varied and cooked fresh and the big garden with astro is a favourite! I would highly recommend it.

I would highly recommend Lord Williams School Day Nursery to any parent. The staff are incredibly warm and nurturing, they have a real, vested interest in the children and the small-ish size of the nursery (and the fact it's a charity) provides a very cosy and close-knit atmosphere for the parents too.
Both of my children have been enrolled from babies to preschoolers and absolutely love their time there. The nursery goes above and beyond to deliver the best environment, they have different themes every week the children get involved in, the kids get to go on trips, bring in external dance teachers and kids' rugby and hold events for the parents and kids and just offer such a warm and varied environment for the kids every day.

The team and care at Lord Williams's School Day Nursery is fantastic, our daughter settled in very quickly earlier this year and we always feel very informed by staff about her progress. As a charity, their focus is all about the children and ensuring they have a safe, nurturing day with really creative
activities and home-cooked food. The amount of outdoor space available to the children allows them to enjoy bikes, trikes, sand pit, mud kitchen, etc. which really enhances their day. Just fantastic!
My husband and I both work full time and, with the brilliant summer club, Lord Williams's School offers exactly what we need in terms of childcare and community for our daughter.
We would wholly recommend Lord Williams's School Day Nursery to any parents in the area.

I can't fault this nursery. From my daughter's first day, the staff and environment have been fantastic. My daughter is thriving and is excited to go to nursery each day. She goes in with no problems and always leaves happy. It is a safe and welcoming space. The staff are caring and you can tell they
are all passionate about what they do and care about all the babies and children. I would recommend the nursery to anyone. It's brilliant.

My son has been going to Lord Williams's School since he was 9 months old, he is now approaching 4 and he has undoubtedly had the best time here. The staff are attentive and fair, and he loves being there.
The outdoor space is great and is used at every opportunity. The managers are always lovely to
deal with, and in the entire time we've used the nursery, the whole family have been very satisfied. Thank you for all you do.

Our son has attended for almost 12 months now, starting when he was 10 months old. He settled very quickly and loves nursery. We've always found the staff kind, compassionate, and patient and the information at the end of the day about food/sleep etc is excellent. The pictures and videos on the nursery
group are also nice to see. We are very happy with our choice of nursery for our son and would highly recommend.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Both of my children have loved Lord Williams's School Day Nursery, my youngest is going into his final year before school in September 2024.
The baby room is outstanding; early walkers can hold on and cruise around the whole area. It’s also part of the open nursery room which mine loved and helped
with transitions because they had seen the toddler and pre-school part every day.
For me the big draw was the hours (open until 5 and run through half terms) and that they have a cook onsite. That’s helped no end with both of mine eating and trying more things.
Outdoor space is great and the staff are lovely.
Going into the final pre-school year they are really focused on development and school readiness. The activities they do are fab and my youngest is already writing his name. I could go on for ages. I really would recommend Lord Williams's School Day Nursery to anyone, you won’t regret it.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.968)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.968) out of 10 for Lord Williams's School Day Nursery 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.968 for Lord Williams's School Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.968

  • 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 Lord Williams's School Day Nursery is based on 13 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 39 number of registered child places is 7.8, which has been reached with 13 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.
