Hadden Hill Nursery & Preschool provides a warm happy and homely environment where the top priority is to have safe contented children. The nursery believes the service should be about making friends and learning through play in a home from home with kind and caring adults for support.

Hadden Hill has excellent facilities indoors and owners are particularly proud of the big outdoors space which has specifically been designed with very small children in mind. A great emphasis is placed on spending lots of time outside in the fresh air and the team use both the indoors and outdoors to deliver all areas of the early years curriculum to a high standard.

Professionals constantly strive to give children memorable experiences with exciting opportunities to learn through play that they might not always be able to do at home and of course give them the opportunity to make some of their first friends.

Having already had one child in the nursery, it was an easy choice to put our new one in as the staff and facilities have always been good.

I have used Hadden Hill Nursery for nearly five years, first with my eldest but now my youngest attends.
The staff have always been polite, professional and caring.
My daughter loves going to nursery and as a parent that is important to me as she is contented and feels safe in her environment.

My son has always been happy at nursery, returning worn out from all the activities. Whenever I turn up I am always happy with the activities he's engaged in, quality of food he's eating and the attention/care he is receiving from staff. I particularly like the amount of time they spend outdoors.

Since my two children have been coming to Hadden Hill they have been really happy and have settled in really well. I feel confident that when I leave they they are in safe hands and are looked after really well. I get told about the fun day that they have and communication is excellent.

My little boy settled in this nursery very quick - that's thanks to the amazing and enthusiastic staff who are taking care of him in a really professional way. My son loves this place, it lets him learn new things, try great food and have much fun every day. Communication between staff and parents is
excellent.

Both our boys (4 year old and 2 year old) attend. We have been extremely pleased with the level of service the nursery provided. The staff are excellent carers/teachers. The boys have developed so well - they always come home happy. Carers/teachers are very attentive, particularly the kindly room teacher.
We love the stories she tells us of what our boys got up to during the day. The boys are cared for to a very high level of standard. We are impressed with the resources/equipment used as part of learning. Overall, it's a brilliant nursery!

I continue to be thrilled with this nursery and its staff. My daughter clearly loves being here and has a particular fondness for the key workers she has had, particularly her first one who still maintains a close bond even after leaving the baby room. Fantastic!

Our son has been at Hadden Hill for almost one year. He always looks forward to going and never looks ready to leave (even though he's been there from 8-5.30!). His speech has developed significantly as a result of being at Hadden Hill. He refers to all his friends and the workers, with a smile! We
have been pleased with his development against the EYFS. The staff are very good recording his various milestones. We chose Hadden Hill as the staff acted in both a professional way and stood out as wanting to care for our son compared to other nurseries we visited.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.933)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.933) out of 10 for Hadden Hill Nursery & Preschool 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.933 for Hadden Hill Nursery & Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (113 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.933

  • 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 Hadden Hill Nursery & Preschool is based on 10 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 49 number of registered child places is 9.8, which has been reached with 10 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.
