My child has just left this nursery after being there from ten months old to four years old, and I can’t rate them high enough; they have nurtured and made him the kind, polite and confident boy he is today.
Wonderful, caring and knowledgeable staff.
Amazing amount of time spent playing and learning
outside, whatever the weather and wonderful visits to other places.
Would not hesitate to recommend them.

Absolutely amazing nursery! My son attended for 3 years and my daughter is almost 2 years into her time there. The manager and the team are fantastic and are amazing with the children. Although I’ve not met a member of staff who hasn’t been lovely and attentive with the children. Really couldn’t fault
it, and we’ve had such a wonderful experience. Our children have always loved their time at The Town Nursery, and we always recommend it to friends. Such wholesome fun, and the children always end up muddy (and happy!) after their day!

Both of our children have gone to this nursery since they were 9 months old (now 2 and 4) and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
We chose this nursery as they not only encourage the development of all the children throughout all stages, but they always get outside, regardless of the weather. This
was a key aspect of play that we wanted our children to enjoy. They have access to a nearby enclosed field with a mud kitchen, pond, playhouse and other outdoor activities.
Also important is that the nursery helps prepare children for school as they get older. Introducing more structured activities and learning, as well as phonics, numeracy etc. I feel that our eldest is the best prepared for school as they can be.
Our kids have formed excellent relationships with the staff.
We would recommend this nursery to anyone in and around the Chipping Norton area.

Our son loves The Town Nursery. The staff are amazing with him and treat him like one of their own children. Since attending, his development has been hugely accelerated. The building and facilities are excellent, and the manager is extremely good at her job. She always takes time to talk to us and
knows all of the little details about our son. We couldn't be happier with the care provided.

A wonderful nursery, and we couldn't be happier. My two-year-old daughter loves attending; she settled in really well (she started at 15 months) and looks forward to attending each day. The team are great at keeping us updated on her day and how she's developing, often sends us photos of her having
fun using the app. The nursery has been great for her development; she's constantly chatting, loves her friends and eats brilliantly since attending. She's outside every day - come rain or shine, and loves getting creative and trying weekly yoga! She comes home tired, very muddy and happy, exactly what we wanted from a nursery! She has been in both nursery 1 and 2 now, and the teams in both have been wonderful, warm and attentive.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.726)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.726) out of 10 for The Town 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 4 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 The Town Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (48 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 48 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 3.726 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Town Nursery is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 57 number of registered child places is 11.4. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.4 = 0.351

  • 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.
