Ofsted rating for Cam Nursery is Outstanding (November 2022)

Co-op Childcare Cam have a sensory garden filled with scented plants like lavender and mint, so their children learn about lots of different smells and textures through teacher-led activities or exploring on their own.

They are big on happy children, they have areas for growing food, regular visits to local care homes and focus on taking care of each other and the world. They are silver eco schools accredited, a programme that sees children lead the way in making little changes that have big environmental differences.

They have 5 Little Pioneers who help share their core values to children, from encouraging them to make their own decisions to expressing their feelings. They have an app for parents/carers, ParentZone, which keeps them updated on how their little ones are getting on at nursery, from photos of their day, meals eaten and even toilet training progress!

They are also big on safety which is why all their staff are paediatric first aid trained!

There are 4 home rooms within the nursery split into the following age groups: 0-2 year olds, 2-3 year olds, 3-5 year olds. The nursery has a car park to the front of the building for easy access. There is a garden to rear and side of the building. The garden includes a nature area, a growing area, 2 soft play areas and a dedicated baby garden.

Can't fault them. They seem well organised, will try and accommodate you if they can with changes to your schedule, and they're very good at putting on interesting activities and letting you know what's going on.
Most importantly our little one loves the place! It's never easy to leave your child with
other people, but when she has a big smile on her face it is far less difficult.

Excellent Childcare provider from babys-todlers so far, provide fun intellectual learning activities including building blocks, group activities, dancing, obstacle courses, reading....playing outside in the garden, sand play.
My sons speech has really come on since joining the 2+, he loves to sing
and dance to songs he's learnt here.
The Nursery provides good healthy meals with a hot meal at lunch and a cold meal in the evening.
Information regarding the nursery is updated regularly via the app which is very convenient, all bumps and bruises are communicated properly.
Very happy with our experience so far :)

My first boy started nursery in 2022 and now my 7 month baby boy is also there. From the outset, all the staff welcomed us and made me feel very safe and secure with the decision I had made to use them as our nursery.
We have particular food and drink and continence preferences and these have been
honoured throughout. The nursery has constantly worked to ensure our routine is maintained as much as possible whilst there. My eldest loves the staff, always talks about his key worker, and has many friends. The staff all genuinely care about the children's wellbeing.
My 7-month-old has just started but the team is working brilliantly and his key worker is absolutely fabulous. Such a great support. This is a fantastic nursery!

Both my children go to the Cam Co-op nursery and they are truly excellent! They have so many activities each day to keep them entertained and learning and they both love it. My little boy is starting school this year and it’s incredible how much work the nursery put into getting him ready. They really
are a brilliant nursery. Highly recommend!

I can not praise this nursery enough, my son has come on amazingly since attending. He has been there since he was 6 months old, now 2 years old. His speech, confidence and development have grown and grown. Every time he comes home from a day at the nursery, there is something new he has learnt. The
staff are brilliant, they keep you informed and are brilliant with the children. They made me feel welcomed on our visit and made the first ever day leaving my son there so much easier. I cannot fault anything they do and would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

My little one has been at Co-op Cam for a few months now and is really starting to shine there. The staff in the 0-2s room are highly attentive to his needs and were incredibly reassuring at the start when he was settling in. They really went the extra mile to make sure he transitioned well. He seems
to be thriving at the nursery and the staff genuinely seem to enjoy watching his personality grow and blossom.

I love the care that the staff have for my child and the attention to detail, not just on one occasion, but every day she goes to nursery. The team at Co-op pay attention to my daughter's needs. We also get the updates on the app throughout the day. I always know how my child is doing, if she ate, or
if they she had her nappy changed, if she slept and for how long and this is so reassuring for a parent when away with work.

Fantastic nursery! Our son has been going there for just over two years and he has absolutely loved it. The staff are fantastic and are always cheerful. They are brilliant with the children.
The preparation and effort the staff go to, to provide activities and teaching following the curriculum, is
second to none, along with the preparation for primary school.
The meals are well thought out and nutritious, as are the snacks provided. Our son has gone from strength to strength by coming here and we are so very grateful to those that work there for helping this happen. We would recommend to all.

Reply from Katie Harney, Manager at Co-op Childcare Cam

Thank you so much for your review, it really means the world to us. We hope the start of school is going well.

Brilliant nursery for my son, who has been attending since he was one year old. They supported us through Covid changes, work patterns changing, always with a smile and helpful advice.
The staff have really looked after my child, and have got to know him so well. It’s a demanding job but the staff
always have a smile on their face and their curriculum is fantastic for preschoolers, I’ve been particularly impressed with the preschool leadership and the huge amount of things they do to ensure the children are ready for school.

This nursery is awesome.
Both our children go to nursery, one 0-2, one 2-5. They both absolutely love it, staff are real-life superheroes, they deserve medals! Food is better than what we could ever make for them at home. They have both developed massively since attending nursery.
Keep it up.

This nursery is really great for our son! The staff are consistently helpful, friendly and approachable and we feel like they really get to know the children. They are attentive to their needs and there is great communication with all staff involved in their care throughout the day. Our son comes home
happy after every session and is always welcomed warmly when he arrives. We really like the regular updates about his day via the app and the development assessments too. We are really happy with the care our child receives here and continue to recommend this nursery to others! Thank you!

My daughter has now been going to Cam Co-op for almost 2 years and still loves it!
The staff are incredibly supportive of her, and of us as parents. They encourage her to grow, be kind, brave and adventurous!
We've actually just reduced our daughters’ hours with the nursery so she can attend a Playgroup
more local to us, in the hopes she'll go to school with some of them. She's not struggled with the transition at all, and I truly believe this is down to the life skills she's learned at Cam nursery! She still absolutely loves her day back with them once a week, and we also feel very lucky to still be able to see all the wonderful faces at Cam nursery on drop off and collection on that day too.
We'll forever be grateful to Cam nursery for all they have done and still do for our family. Should we be lucky enough to have another little person, we will certainly be trying very hard to get them into the nursery so they can have the best start too!
Keep up the great work team!

I couldn’t recommend Co-op Childcare Cam enough. Even though my little boy only attends once a week, he has come on leaps and bounds with his development and social skills. The staff are really friendly and generally really care for all the children. I especially like how they update the app with what
the children have been doing each day. My little boy looks forward to going each week.

My son has been attending since he was 10 months old. I had huge anxiety and guilt about his development, He was premature, a little behind in terms of gross motor skills and I assumed he would need a little extra support and encouragement, but as soon as he stepped foot in the door he was away! He
is now walking, chatting, enjoys playing with others, isn't afraid to join in and I get updates from the nursery about what he has been doing each day. His development has come on so much and I know that this wouldn't have happened without the support of the staff. His key worker is beyond amazing! Be clear as to what you think your child needs as you know him best... but also trust that they are in good hands... with Co-op Childcare Cam they certainly are!

I can’t fault the staff at Co-op Childcare Cam. All the staff are approachable and friendly. My daughter loves all her time at the nursery.
The food she is eating is so much more than the choices we think of at home which is fantastic.
Her learning is so much more advanced than we expected and we
believe this is down to the team at the nursery - fab!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.915)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.915) out of 10 for Co-op Childcare Cam 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.915 for Co-op Childcare Cam is calculated as follows: ( (173 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 188 Ratings = 4.915

  • 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 Co-op Childcare Cam is based on 16 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, which has been reached with 16 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.
