As a worried dad, I could not ask for a better nursery for my daughter! Not only are the staff so caring, attentive and knowledgeable; the nursery itself has been extremely stimulating for her.
The manager has a real passion for Montessori which really shows when looking around the nursery. The whole
team have been so accommodating to us and we are so grateful to have found a nursery we feel confident in leaving our daughter with.

I used this nursery for my daughter 10 years ago and always recommended it. I have recently put my 9 month old in here and he absolutely loves it. They've been fab with him and his development, made him really welcome and the transition of me going back to work so easy! Cannot recommend enough!!

My two daughters aged 6 and 2 have attended Ambourne House and both have loved the nursery, as do we! All staff are really friendly, approachable and accommodating, particularly the staff within the tadpole and frog room (where my youngest daughter is at present) - they show a real interest in the
children and what they get up to outside of nursery as well as planning fun and challenging activities each and every day. I have seen some real improvements in the nursery over the last 12 months and particularly love the attention given to the needs of individual children, the regular use of tapestry and the opportunity to attend the nursery when they have external providers/activities for the children. My daughter is really happy at Ambourne House.

We are very happy with the care our son has received in Ambourne House for the last 3 years. We like the balance of indoor and outdoor time with activities like forest school making the most of the lovely big garden.
The team is nice and professional. The activities are tailored to match the interests
of the children which keeps them engaged and keen to learn.
Our son loves going there.

Thank you Ambourne House Day Nursery staff for everything. My son stayed in nursery for almost 3 years. It has always been a pleasure for my son to come to nursery and learn new things. He started school this year but he still remembers nursery and staff members. The Ambourne House Day Nursery provides
a good childcare service.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.077)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.077) out of 10 for Ambourne House Day 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 Ambourne House Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 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 3.077 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ambourne House Day Nursery is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 65 number of registered child places is 13. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.077

  • 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.
