I'm delighted with my choice of nursery. The staff in my son's room are all lovely with the children (as well as with us at pick up and drop off) and they all have the patience of saints!! My little boy has settled really well and gets to do a range of wonderful activities while at nursery even though
he's only 15 months old. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking in the area, in fact, I do all the time!

My daughter joined the nursery in February in the baby room. She settled in really quickly and loves all the staff that work in the room. She confidently goes to the practitioners in the mornings and loves all the fun activities they provide in the day (especially the messy ones). My daughter enjoys
the wide variety of food the nursery provides too.
I couldn't be happier with the care my daughter receives in the caterpillar room and highly recommend the nursery.

Fantastic nursery, with a variety of activities to keep children occupied. Staff are well trained and experienced.
The food is varied and always well received from my child.
You can tell that staff genuinely care about the children in their class. I will miss this nursery very much when my child
starts reception class. I trust all of the practitioners, which is important as they are looking after the most valuable thing in my life

Lovely nursery with great outdoor space. Friendly caring staff. I feel comfortable to leave my child in their care. Great feedback at the end of the day, lots of fun activities and artwork to bring home. All staff and management are always happy to help if I have any concerns. I would definitely recommend

My son has recently started at nursery, with the help of the caring and friendly staff he settled well into nursery and really enjoys his time there. He enjoys all the activities carried out in his class and the fantastic garden is great for him to run around in and enjoy himself.

My son has been going to Emscote House for more that fifteen months now. I am very happy to see his social skills and overall personality development, especially since he started going to pre-school as well.
The staff are very interactive and helpful. He has made a lot of good friends here and I am
glad to see Emscote House is his second home where he really enjoys himself and is quite well looked after.
The environment here is very warm and friendly and a great foundation before he begins school.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Wonderful nursery with a friendly and safe environment. Both the management and the staff are very cooperative and professional. Our son started when he was 2 years old on a full-time basis without speaking a word of English: He was looked after brilliantly and has settled within 3 months thanks to
the staff support. Additionally, our son’s allergy to cow milk has never been an issue as the staff are used to dealing with any food allergy. We have been able to leave our child and have peace of mind from the very first day and every day after.
Therefore, we would recommend Emscote House Day nursery to any other parents and especially those looking for a nursery in the area without being already living here.

My daughter has been attending Emscote house since Jan 2016. We are thrilled with how she has settled and is cared for at the nursery. She gets to take part in activities that we don't do at home and is building up her social skills. She is now 14 months and is more independent and confident than oever.

I visited many nurseries prior to my first daughter starting at Emscote in November 2013. I have to say that none of them came close in terms of the facilities and environment that's on offer at Emscote. My second daughter is now in the Caterpillar room which is a lovely, calm environment for the babies.
Always clean and with friendly, professional staff. My older daughter is in the Butterfly room having moved up through various rooms and always bonding well with the staff in the rooms. Emscote always go the extra mile to help you when needed and you never feel like anything you ask is a problem. The most important thing for me is knowing that I'm leaving my children in a safe and stimulating environment with kind and professional staff.

We have been very pleased with our 18 month daughters development in the last month. Her keyworker has been very good with her encouraging her to learn and adapt socially to the environment. Food has been excellent as from our daughter's notes she has finished all her food. Due to the support and care
of staff I would recommend this nursery.

We are over the moon with our nursery choice. Our son has many allergies and intolerances and we thought we would be a burden on whichever nursery we chose. Emscote House never made us feel like this and went above and beyond their duty of care. The deputy manager even sourced some suitable food and
recipes in her own time. I felt completely overwhelmed by this. His key worker is fantastic. She has genuine interest in him and has helped make us feel at east with settling him in. I couldn't recommend this nursery more.

Emscote House nursery is the second nursery we have used. The nursery has good facilities. However the main difference we have found with Emscote House is the staff team. They show a genuine interest in our children's development an when I am there dropping or picking up our children there is always
a smiley, relaxed atmosphere.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.758)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.758) out of 10 for Emscote House Day Nursery (Leamington Spa) 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 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 4.903 for Emscote House Day Nursery (Leamington Spa) is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 238 Ratings = 4.903

  • 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 4.855 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Emscote House Day Nursery (Leamington Spa) is based on 20 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 117 number of registered child places is 23.4. 20 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.4 = 0.855

  • 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.
