Lots of messy play, outdoor play, stimulation and activities, really attentive care.
Very considerate to working parents. Emails and calls are answered promptly.
When we first visited baby was 4 months, a year has passed and the hardware and management transformation had been incredible. Highly recommend. Happy place, happy staff, happy child, happy parent.

This is a beautiful review! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand how challenging starting nursery can be, especially under the circumstances you described. Knowing we could provide incredible support for both you and your child truly means a lot. Our staff take pride in being patient, kind, and gentle, and it sounds like they helped your daughter not only adjust but thrive! Building friendships with classmates and bonding with caregivers is a wonderful outcome, and it's clear she looks forward to her days at "school" now.

All the staff are very caring, kind and supportive and always go above and beyond to ensure all the children and parents are happy.
My son loves coming to preschool and we will be sad to leave when he starts reception
They do fun activities with the children and incorporate a variety of different topics and religious holidays to ensure inclusivity and diversity in their teaching.
My son's favourite activities at the nursery are arts and crafts, baking, story time, dancing and singing, and outdoor exploring. During these activities, the staff include literacy and numeracy skills to make learning fun, ensuring the children are prepared and ready for school.
Thank you for everything.

They kept in touch with me while he was settling in and were so patient with any questions.
The staff are always so positive and cheerful while being totally professional. I cannot praise them enough. I wouldn’t hesitate about putting any child of mine here. I don’t think I met one person who wasn’t made for their job, a wonderful team and wonderful nursery.

Overview of Review Score
The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Southam 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Southam is calculated as follows: ( (133 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Southam is based on 12 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 12 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.
