We couldn't be happier with CherryVale Nursery. Our son is excited to go each day and has always had a brilliant connection with his key worker. The transition between each room is very well managed. They get to enjoy a huge variety of activities, are encourage to learn and develop and have access to
the garden whatever the weather. The menu is very varied so ensures they try lots of different things and are offered seconds if finished. The transition between managers has been seamless and we like the open days put on for us to visit with the children.

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at CherryVale Nursery

We have experienced the baby, tiny todds, toddlers and most recently little learners rooms. All of the staff we have come into contact with have been excellent. They have all been enthusiastic, friendly and encouraging. They have taken the time to get to know our daughter as well as us. During our most
recent class move, my daughter has become very tearful at drop off time. The staff have all been so kind to both her and I, reassuring me that this phase will settle. They have gone above and beyond to ensure she feels supported in her new room. The open days have been an excellent bonus, these are stay and play sessions for current children. The activities are very educational and well thought through. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone - we feel so lucky to attend here.
One of the greatest selling points of this nursery is its similarities to a school set up (different classrooms all within 1 building and a proper play ground area).

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at CherryVale Nursery

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed feedback! We're so happy to hear that you've had such a positive experience across all the rooms and that the staff has been supportive, friendly, and encouraging throughout your daughter's journey.

My son started at CherryVale Nursery in August 2024, after being at home with me his whole life, I was so anxious about sending him to nursery. However, CherryVale made him feel so welcomed and loved. All the staff here are completely outstanding, and I really could not thank them enough for looking
after my son. My son spends all his time in the baby room currently, and all 3 girls in here are incredible. From painting, bird feeders, playdough hedgehogs, they get to explore everything! They really work so hard, I could not fault them. Thank you to all the ladies at CherryVale, my son has is so happy here!

Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at CherryVale Nursery

Thank you so much for your heartfelt feedback! We know how big a step it is to send your little one to nursery for the first time, and we're so glad we could make this transition comfortable for both you and your son. It's wonderful to hear how much he enjoys his days in the baby room and all the fun activities.

My daughter has been coming here since she was 10 months old and shes almost 3 now. She loves it here. All the staff are amazing and look after her so well. Her key worker is amazing and my daughter talks about her all the time outside nursery. The care is second to none and I would not hesitate in
recommending CherryVale Nursery to anyone. Thank you to all the staff for such an amazing job looking after my baby girl.

My girls have been attending CherryVale Nursery since they were 6 months old (now nearly 3) and the care that they have received is nothing short of excellent. The girls love coming to nursery and I feel constantly supported with advice. The constant updates throughout the day via the app are really
helpful and it gives an insight into their day. From the 1st day I have had peace of mind over their care and the girls have flourished. I would thoroughly recommend CherryVale to all other parents.

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at CherryVale Nursery

Wow - thank you for such a glowing review! Watching your girls grow from 6 months old to nearly 3 has been an absolute joy. We're thrilled to know they love coming to nursery and that you've felt supported every step of the way.

We have two children at CherryVale and both love their time here. It really comes down to the fantastic carers, who know them very well and quickly develop a great bond with them. Our little one has been from 6 months old and just enjoys every minute she spends here. We've tried some other nurseries
before we moved here from London and can safely say, this is the best we've seen.

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at CherryVale Nursery

What a fantastic review - thank you! Hearing that both your children love their time at CherryVale makes us beam with pride. We're thrilled they've built such strong bonds with our carers, who truly adore getting to know each little one. Starting from 6 months old and thriving every step of the way is exactly what we aim for. Knowing we stand out after your experiences elsewhere is the highest compliment. Thank you for being part of our CherryVale family!

Our daughter has settled very well at CherryVale as the staff are so friendly and there is so much for her to do. There is good structure and themed weeks allow activities to be linked which enhances learning. The app updates are good but sometimes there isn't much info or inaccurate info at pick up
i.e.: how much/what she ate.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.784)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.784) out of 10 for CherryVale Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.784 for CherryVale Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (269 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 329 Ratings = 4.784

  • 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 CherryVale Nursery is based on 28 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 106 number of registered child places is 21.2, which has been reached with 28 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.
