All I would like to say, is that my daughter adores her carers and absolutely loves going to the nursery every weekday morning. My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was a baby and I have had no complaints whatsoever. The team are always coming up with interesting activities for the
little ones.


The carers at Knowle Green are the real gems, they always bring a smile to your face. Always warm, welcoming and engaging.

My children have settled really well into the nursery environment, the practitioners have really put my mind at ease with them eating and sleeping and listen to me and my children's needs.

Brilliant nursery with excellent staff. Always friendly and work really hard to assist with any problems your child is having, including understanding routines with split parenting, toilet training and new feelings. Even though we have moved further away this nursery has been so great I decided to keep
him here rather than move him. Fully recommend to anyone.

We have now got our second child coming through nursery and we have been very happy with the experience. It is a warm environment and all the staff know all the children, giving the atmosphere a family feel to it. Our three year old happily bounces in every morning and chats about her experiences during
the day. We've had a huge amount of support in terms of feeding, potty training, sleep etc over the years. Our 6 year old still likes coming in to see everyone and to show how tall he is now. The educational side is also very good and both children have quickly picked up on learning their numbers and letters etc whilst there.

My little one enjoys being into this nursery since she was 11 months old, now into pre-school. She has been learning in every room of the nursery and developing at every stage. Excellent service, amazing staff! Thank you.

I was nervous about going back to work as my daughter was a poor sleeper and very hard work at 10 months. I was sure she would not cope with childcare. However, the staff at Knowle Green were so attentive and made sure they knew my daughter as an individual. I know she is in good hands. Now when we
arrive she squeals in excitement. The nursery have encouraged her with walking and talking and eating healthily. The best bit is she is now so stimulated during the day that she sleeps loads better. I cant thank the girls there enough for taking such wonderful care of my daughter.

The nursery is warm, friendly and caring. The baby room is especially 'cosy' which is wonderful for the babies setting in a new environment away from home for the first time. The separate outside play areas are well equipped and the nursery has its own a 'woodland garden'. The staff are one of the
nursery's best assets. Many have been with the nursery a very long time so there is continuity for the children.

This nursery is purpose built and spends considerable effort to provide the children with a wide variety of activities in a safe environment.
They have also listened to parent feedback and operate slightly longer hours in order to facilitate parents who have a longer commute to work.
The children
are always very happy.
The support we have received with key childhood development and challenges has been fantastic - dietary needs, potty training, getting dressed, etc.

We have been really impressed with the quality of care our child gets. All the staff are friendly, helpful and well trained, excellent with the kids and create a really positive and happy atmosphere for them. Our child starting attending the nursery at the age of 2 and it was a nervous time with some
early tears and adjustment issues as it's a big change from being at home every day. However, the key worker and other staff were amazing, helping to settle our child quickly and ensuring we were updated with progress. Within a month it was actually harder to bring our child home than drop off!


The facilities are really good and they run regular activities to give the children new stimuli, which is important for their development. It has been a great experience for our child, who has developed better social skills and learned to mix and interact with other children really quickly, wonderful for us to see. We now have a second child and intend to send them to the nursery as well, as soon as they're old enough.

My son attended the nursery for a year and he enjoyed every single moment he spent there. The staff are very friendly and caring. I love the environment because kids can play in different places and learn at the same time. My son has built self confidence in expressing himself and has respect for others.
The staff are well trained and got good experience with kids. We'll really miss everyone in Knowle green.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.768)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.768) out of 10 for Knowle Green Day Nursey 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 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.768 for Knowle Green Day Nursey is calculated as follows: ( (405 Excellents x 5) + (83 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 504 Ratings = 4.768

  • 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 Knowle Green Day Nursey is based on 42 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 133 number of registered child places is 26.6, which has been reached with 42 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.
