The nursery is like a little family and the children are happy to be there. All of the staff work so hard and are really friendly.
Thank you to all at Arbury Day Nursery.

My granddaughter has had a wonderful time at the nursery and she has come on leaps n’ bounds. The staff are all lovely and it basically feels like home. I would recommend anyone who is interested in finding a nursery/pre school to go and take a look.

My child loves coming to pre-school and is always telling and showing me what she has learnt. All of the staff are amazing and it feels like a family.
My daughter has a really close bond with two staff members in particular, and they have made her time with you really special. I cannot thank you all
enough for the support you gave my child and myself when her granddad passed away.

Personally, I cannot thank the staff enough at Arbury Day Nursery. My little girl has been going for two months. At first, she was very nervous, however with the guidance and support of workers, she's now become sociable, independent and a confident little character. Over a short period of time, she
has done a variety of activities encouraging memories and opportunities. I couldn't recommend a more rewarding nursery after seeing how much my little girl has learnt.

My boy started in the baby room at Arbury Day Nursery almost a year ago. Now he is in the toddler room; we can see that he is socialising and playing with other kids.
The girls in the toddler room are caring and compromised with their work with every single kid. My husband and I are thrilled that our
boy is spending his firsts and more crucial years in Arbury.

My daughter has been at the nursery now since she was 8 months old. She is now 2 years old. She was extremely apprehensive when she first arrived, however, the team at the nursery have gone above and beyond to ensure she is comfortable and happy. Her development is fantastic. I put this very much down
to the care, love and nurturing she receives. I am also really pleased to see continued investment into the nursery environment.

Friendly and helpful staff. If there are any problems, they are understanding and willing to help solve the situation. My grandson may have autistic traits that the nursery have observed and are arranging an assessment for him - so grateful to them, as our GP was not helpful at all.

This nursery has been a pleasure to bring my children here as they are always on board and offer any help or support they think you might need. Arbury nursery has done an amazing job with my daughter this year and I don't doubt any change in it.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.863)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.863) out of 10 for Arbury Day Nursery & Pre-school 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.963 for Arbury Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (103 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.963

  • 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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Arbury Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 34 number of registered child places is 6.8, which has been reached with 9 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.

Hi there,


My name is Tej Bhatt, and I am the Nursery Manager here at Arbury Day Nursery.


My passion and motivation to provide the best start for children and families started when I became a mother to my lovely sons. During my 17+ year career in the nursery world, I have had the opportunity to develop my understanding of what outstanding childcare looks like, particularly after earning my Early Years degree.


I have supported my teams in delivering a high standard of care and was delighted to learn that Tommies Childcare shares the same values as I do. I am delighted to be joining a dedicated team and look forward to continuing to build upon the nursery environment at Arbury, which enables your child’s learning and development.


We’re always happy for parents and families to visit us, so book your visit to Arbury today and I’d be delighted to give you a tour and introduce you to our team.
