CherryField Nursery is second to none. Each and every staff member cared for my daughter like their own. The activities they provide and set out are so fun and engaging for the children, my daughter learnt so much whilst being at nursery. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming and generally care
about the children. I would always recommend CherryField to anyone I talk to, the best nursery in the area hands down!

Both of our daughters have been attending here since September 2019 and I can't praise the staff and set up enough. My youngest started in the baby room and settled in like a dream, thanks to the very welcoming team there. Our eldest daughter had been attending another nursery where we previously lived
and found the move hard at first, but the staff in the pre-school room were fantastic and really helped her to find her feet. The difference between the nursery we used beforehand (a well-known chain) and Cherryfield is astounding. The range of activities, rooms, garden space, and the quality of communication are all far superior, which makes us extremely glad we made the change.
All the staff we have interacted with have been positive, caring, and thoughtful. I also really rate the app - it's great to see what they've been getting up to and photos of them enjoying themselves.

I cannot praise the nursery and the nursery team at CherryField Nursery enough. We have 2 children currently attending nursery, both of them are extremely happy and are progressing very well. Every staff member who has worked with our children has always been very kind, supportive and caring. Our children
have always loved attending nursery, and have learnt a lot from attending. They have both been really well cared for throughout the day with lots of cuddles if they need them and compassion if they fall or hurt themselves. I definitely couldn’t recommend this nursery more highly to anyone. The staff are excellent at communicating with us and the app is fab.

I couldn’t be more grateful to the CherryField team, and more relieved that our little girl is in the best care we could ask for. I really struggled returning to work and felt so guilty and apprehensive, but everyone supported us and especially our little girl, nothing ever felt too much or annoying.
The facilities are perfect for little ones, never a dull moment, and a healthy mix of fun and education. All the staff are very genuine, caring and professional. Can’t fault it.

My son (now 8) used to attend this nursery and my daughter is currently in the preschool room. Both of them started full-time nursery since they were one-year old, hence we have experienced every room as they moved up the ranks. The nursery is homey, the facilities more than adequate and the outdoor
spaces and atmosphere are comfortable being next to a park. However, the staff are the real gem at this nursery and this is the most important aspect to us with our children being in the nursery five days a week. They look after the children well and are friendly and approachable, from management, room staff to catering staff. We have never had issue with any staff member all these years. They do a lot of activities (both fun and educational) with the children. My son had a fond memory of this nursery and my daughter is very happy. I highly recommend this nursery.

We have been really happy with the nursery which we started using in April 2015. The number of rooms separated by age works really well and we really like the fact each room has a garden so our daughters can be outside every day. The nursery is clean, tidy and well equipped. The real asset though
is the staff. There are many staff who have worked at Cherryfield for a number of years and the consistency and quality of the staff makes the nursery outstanding in our opinion. Our daughters are really happy there and we see their weekly development from the activities they do there.

Lovely nursery where the staff really enjoy spending time with the children. Both my children attend and have done since they were about 9 months old. They are still both very happy to go to nursery and pre-school every morning and come home exhausted from all of the fun they've had! A special shout
out to all staff from the baby room. You really look after those little ones.

My two children have always loved going to nursery because of how wonderful all the staff at Cherryfield are. Every single child development support worker the children have had has been caring and kind and always gone over and above to make sure the children are happy. I have found the communication
excellent, I always know what’s going on, and what my children are up to. I cannot recommend this Nursery highly enough. The management team run it so well and are always quick to respond and super helpful.

My daughter currently attends preschool here. She’s been here since the baby room so we have experienced each room at the nursery and have been very happy with each room. The range of activities are great, the outdoor space for each room is lovely. Staff are approachable and a handy app keeps you up
to date with your child’s activities during the day, including photos. Food is healthy and varied. My daughter is bright and confident and I thank the staff at Cherryfields for that! It’s quite expensive, but I think this is true of most nurseries and I think the quality here is high enough to justify it.

CherryField nursery is a warm and welcoming nursery full of friendly and caring staff members. My son has received the best care since starting in baby room and absolutely loves going into nursery. They provide fun stimulating activities and resources and are also very good with the care they have given
my son with his health and dietary issues by accommodating things to fit his needs. I would recommend this nursery highly and thank all the staff for the love they give my son.

My eldest daughter has been at Cherryfield Nursery for nearly 4 years and my youngest for just over a year. I can't fault them. The genuine care and support that the staff give the children is outstanding. My daughters have flourished in their care and are so happy to go to nursery every day.


The

communication from the staff is excellent and they are always responsive. I love the App so I can see what my children have been up to throughout the day.


It will be a very sad day when my daughter leaves for school in September. If they did holiday clubs I would be sending her back there!

Our daughter has attended Cherryfield for 3.5 years and she has loved her time there.
All the staff are really supportive and care so much about the children. The nursery keeps the parents informed on all matters and we have always found everyone extremely and helpful. We will miss them when she goes
to big school!!
I would wholeheartedly recommend Cherryfield to anyone looking for nursery care.

Having had my daughter at Cherryfield for 3.5 years, I could not ask for a better nursery for her to be in. Cherryfield has exceeded expectations in all aspects: staff, management, learning, facilities and development and learning. Staff in every single room have given my daughter so much love and care.
It is a very special place and I will be devastated when she has to leave for school in a few months time!

All three of my children have attended CherryField Nursery on a full-time basis and thoroughly enjoy every day.


My eldest is now at school but my twins have enjoyed every year since they were one.


They particularly love preschool. They have asked me to write that their teachers are amazing!


The

staff are all very friendly and very accommodating with any special requests.


Keep up the fantastic work!

Our son loves the nursery and his teachers at pre-school. When he started, so much care was taken to make sure that he (and us!) adapted well to the routines and settled in. The staff were very thoughtful and caring and we were given regular updates on how he is getting on. He now loves going there
and it’s amazing to see how his confidence has grown and what he has and is continuing to learn. They have a great balance between learning and fun and the children are also encouraged to behave well towards each other. I like the daily update in the app as it helps to know what they have been up to.
Any concerns that we have raised have always been dealt with not only with great professionalism but also with tact, sensitivity and care and always resolved.
The nursery has a lovely atmosphere and a happy environment and I have nothing but respect for the staff for making it such a lovely place. My only regret is that he will be leaving in September to start school.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.544)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.544) out of 10 for CherryField 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 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 4.824 for CherryField Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.824

  • 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 4.72 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for CherryField Nursery is based on 17 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 118 number of registered child places is 23.6. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.6 = 0.72

  • 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.
