Shere Day Nursery is a Nursery with a difference. Situated in the Surrey Hills, this Forest School Nursery inspires children with a hands-on approach to learning both indoors and out.

Children are encouraged to observe and question what they find in their outdoor environment by: making dens, exploring tracks, creating art and identifying wildlife in all weathers.

The staff team work with parents to ensure children develop socially, intellectually, culturally, physically and emotionally in a caring and secure environment.

Children also take part in a range of extra curricular activities designed to develop their skills and creativity in a safe and stimulating environment.

Such a lovely, warm and friendly environment. My daughter has thrived during her time here so far. She’s made lovely little friends and adores those caring for her.

We can highly recommend 'Friends'. We are based in Guildford but are willing to travel because our son loves being outside and there are lots of opportunities for this, particularly Forest School which is the main reason we chose 'Friends'.
All of the staff are friendly and now that preschool is in
a new room, my son is very happy at the end of each day, he loves it and literally dances and skips out. We also find that in the new room he's much happier at drop-off too, which is a relief after many months of upset first thing in the morning. He has been to two nurseries before attending Shere and 'Friends' is the only one that he has settled in.
The staff update me on what he has been doing at the end of each day and they are very approachable if we have any issues.
Overall we are extremely happy and feel that enrolling him at 'Friends' was the best decision for him.

All of the team have been very friendly and welcoming. My Son has settled very well into the Nursery and has really enjoyed his first week. Whenever I pick him up it looks like they have had lots of fun and he has spoken a lot about their Forest school outings.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.227)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.227) out of 10 for Shere Day Nursery 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 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 4.917 for Shere Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (22 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.917

  • 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 3.31 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Shere Day Nursery is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.8 = 0.185

  • 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.
