My overall experience with the nursery has been very positive. The staff are kind and caring, and my child is always happy to attend. I also appreciate the app, which keeps me updated on what my child has eaten, nappy changes, and even shares pictures and videos of their activities.


I do have a couple

of suggestions. When contacting parents, it would feel more personal to say, "Hi, is that (child's name mom)?" rather than using the parents first names. Additionally, I'm unsure how birthdays are celebrated, as nothing has been shared. At my child's previous nursery, birthdays were a special occasion: the birthday child would sit on a decorated chair with a crown or hat while everyone sang "Happy Birthday," and the parents would receive a photo. They also gave a book as a gift for birthdays and graduations.

The teachers are great, always keep you up to date with how your child is progressing. My daughter took a while to settle in. They were patient and helpful. They also encouraged the kids to do things really well. Would definitely recommend this preschool. My daughter has come out of her shy shell. They
also encourage and help you potty train your child.

Very pleasant environment, nice calming music as soon as you enter the nursery setting. The building is very secure as the nursery is situated at the back of a shared building. The staff are very caring and communicative. Both of our children love going to nursery and they talk about their day in the
nursery when they get home, they talk nicely about the staff which means that they bond well. Both of our children eat at nursery more than they would eat at home which I find great that they are being motivated by staff and the presence of other children.

Good facilities, well thought-through rooms. Outside play areas are great. A well-secured entrance with great off-road parking. Communication from staff is excellent with regular organisational and child updates.
Staff are friendly and caring. I'm very confident in their ability to look after and educate
my children. Great feedback from my children who love going. Excellent food on offer for children all day.

Fox Hollies is a good day nursery, it's nice I get to see what my child eats throughout the day, from time to time the teachers upload pictures of the activities they have done, and you have a great eco-garden which I know my child loves. The teachers are all very friendly and helpful and when asked
about my child's performance that day, are always informative and are able to provide an update. What I would like to see more of is what educational activities they do during the day (i.e drawing, painting, numbers or even playing with toys). It would be nice if they have done a drawing that day for them to bring it home and explain to me what they have done or made.
I understand the day nursery is very busy, but I think the flexibility could be improved on (I.e being able to swap days in advance or have an additional day).

Very happy with the nursery. Staff very attentive and friendly. My child loves to go there. The only thing is that he has constant problems with his stomach and his poo is too loose so he spends more time at home than in the nursery and we still need to pay full price.

We placed our 1-year-old son into this nursery, it was a difficult decision to make as we the mum and dad become very optimistic about placing him into any nurseries. We explored all the local ones within the area and this one stood out a lot. It was during COVID so we were restricted to what we were
allowed to see within the 4 walls of the nursery. We were greeted by the baby room manager and was introduced to the room team leader who both are very fantastic at what they do, we couldn't really see anything inside so we were reliant on making our decision with how the staff was. I can now say 6 months later that it was probably one of the best choices we made I can not emphasize enough. The staff are fantastic my son loves nursery in the time he's been there he's learnt a lot, how to walk, talk, eat by himself. His development is by far further than if he hadn't had gone to this nursery. We are so thankful to the staff who have made our son become who he is today, thank you so much.

The staff are extremely welcoming and welcome your children. They listen and make adjustments if you have a concern. The nursery is nice and clean. They work on the development of the child and sometimes give homework (which my child is always excited about). They help with toilet training and give
tips. They update on the 'Famly' app regularly which is brilliant and peace of mind. Thank you to all staff. They could invest more in outdoor activities like climbing or swing or slide area. Also indoor they can buy new things instead of getting second-hand items. Be regular with the homework pattern.

Everyone in the bathroom has supported me and helped settle my daughter into nursery. Always happy to listen to any concerns, but also offer advice and help, especially useful when you're a first-time mum! I have seen my daughter come on leaps and bounds since starting her development is a credit to
the care and attention she receives from one staff. They are genuinely invested in the children and I couldn't be happier that my child goes here. They have also happily catered to my daughters' meat-free dietary requirements and use of reusable nappies.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.996)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.996) out of 10 for Fox Hollies Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 8 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 4.396 for Fox Hollies Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (41 Excellents x 5) + (52 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.396

  • 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 4.6 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fox Hollies Nursery is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.8

  • 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.
