My grandson always has a really good time when he goes to nursery, he learns a lot of new things, all the staff are really good, we get regular updates throughout the day so we know everything he is doing and what he gets to eat.

I've had my neurodiverse child with autism, global developmental delay and pica here and I would like to say the nursery went above and beyond for her met all her needs consistently, with regular meetings to discuss progress and how to create a safer environment for her to feel safe and more secure
whilst in their setting whilst she was there. Without their added input she wouldn't have left for primary school saying single words and being as independent as she possibly could be, they went above and beyond for her and I am massively grateful to the Radmoor Day Nursery family for this. My son is currently here and he is growing from strength to strength, with great input and meeting milestones, he loves his dinners from Radmoor and playing outside with his friends, he is also talking a lot now considering his delay speech when he first joined Radmoor. Honestly these ladies deserve an award, they aren't just early learning educators they have become our extended family.

My child started here, first nursery, they was very unsettled but has grown with the staff to love the nursery and staff. It took me a while to find the correct one. My friends child goes to Radmoor Day Nursery too and recommend me here and with her recommendation I couldn't have chosen a better nursery.
The admin staff are the first people that let you in with your child and are so happy lovely lovely people, they are fantastic at their jobs and so understanding. With my child starting nursery it took more settling in sessions than normal and they even said more than usual sessions to settle in more would benefit my child which was so much appreciated. The staff in the coloured rooms are absolutely amazing, they also have a sensory room and a therapy dog which is amazing. Thank you so much Radmoor Day Nursery and their staff for going on and beyond with their care compassionate and support they all offer.

My daughter has only just started at Radmoor Day Nursery this January and my partner and I couldn't be happier with the support, communication and overall brilliance of the staff there. We get updates daily about activities (including photos), food eaten, nappy changes, naps and general information
regarding the nursery which is great.
They have been outstanding since the first time we stepped in for a visit, to my daughters trial days which were fantastic and increased in amount of time spent at the nursery each visit, to my daughter now being there for a month and we are so happy.
All staff are friendly and approachable so we would feel very comfortable discussing anything with them.
They send us updates about our daughter's progress so we know exactly where she is in terms of friendships, other relationships, her academic abilities and how she has felt throughout the day.
Well done to all involved in the day-to-day running of Radmoor - it is phenomenal!

All staff here are absolutely brilliant, can't speak highly enough of them. My two boys have absolutely loved it here. They are always smiling and happy to be there and that's because of the staff and how well it is run. They also update the app regularly to show what your child has been doing keeping
you informed of their journey. So glad I chose here for my children to go.

Started in the toddler room and have moved to the 2-3 yr old rooms. In both my daughter bonded so well to the staff and was happy to see them in the mornings. She gets introduced to an ever evolving list of activities and I especially love the inclusion of culturally relevant activities and lessons.
The kids are being shown how to be kind and interested in diversity and difference which is wonderful and important to us. Staff at every level have always been super attentive, responsive and helpful. They will do as much as they can for your kid and your family.

Our daughter has recently started at Radmoor Day Nursery and we couldn't be happier with the experience so far. From day one, the staff have been incredibly welcoming, polite and supportive, not just to my daughter but to the family as a whole.
My partner has recently broke his ankle and their kindness
and willingness to help have made such a difference. They've gone above and beyond to accommodate our situation, ensuring that the transition into nursery has been as smooth as possible. It's clear that they are all passionate about their role.
We also love the regular updates on the app, it's so reassuring to see what our daughter has been up to each day and to know she's happy and her needs are being fulfilled. It really helps us feel involved in her journey.
Radmoor Day Nursery is a fantastic nursery and we're so grateful to have such a wonderful team looking after our little one. Highly recommend.

Both our children have attended Radmoor Day Nursery. Our youngest is very well looked after in the pre school. The staff have got to know her well and understand her needs. She looks forward to attending and is always keen to talk about what she has been doing. When our youngest was receiving external
support for her physical development, the nursery staff came along to meetings and used what they heard to support our child even further.
The staff also did a fantastic job of helping to prepare our eldest to start school.
All staff are kind, caring and fun.
We would highly recommend Radmoor Day Nursery.

Radmoor Day Nursery has been fantastic for our child. From the start, the staff were warm, welcoming and genuinely caring, making the transition so easy. Our child loves going in each day, growing in confidence and making great friendships.
The nursery offers a wonderful mix of learning and play, keeping
our child engaged and happy. The outdoor space is a big favourite, providing plenty of opportunities for exploring and active play. We also appreciate the regular updates, which keep us involved in their daily experiences.
Seeing our child thrive in such a supportive environment has been amazing. We're so grateful to the Radmoor team and highly recommend them to any parent looking for a caring and enriching nursery.

My youngest has been at Radmoor Day Nursery for a year now and she absolutely loves it. The care she receives is wonderful, and the communication we receive from the staff both in her room and the wider nursery is excellent. We feel well informed of her daily activities with staff providing several
photos daily, as well as detailed records of mealtimes which is helpful. The relationship she has with her key person is wonderful. The management team are also fantastic, so friendly, and helpful, and go the extra mile to make us feel welcome and valued as a family. I would definitely recommend Radmoor Nursery.

My daughter started nursery at 12 months old and I am so happy that I chose to send her to Radmoor. The staff are so knowledgeable and caring and she's formed some lovely bonds with them. I love the fact that some of the staff have been there a number of years, it shows they love their job and the whole
place is like a big family. The app is really handy to track her eating and sleeping throughout the day but we also receive a clear update in person at each pick up. The nursery has been fantastic in supporting all aspects of her development and I can see so much progress already.

Both of my children attend Radmoor and they love it. From day one the staff have always been so welcoming, helpful and friendly. The children get up to loads of fun things each day and I have certainly noticed improvements in my children's development since attending Radmoor. The staff show real care

Both of my kids have been here since they were 11 months old. Went on a visit and had a look around. Really knowledgeable staff and had a friendly vibe in all of the rooms we saw and how the staff interacted with the kids. The app is really useful for keeping a track of what they eat and how they are
getting on in nursery along with pictures throughout the day on how they are getting on. The Reception Staff are friendly and approachable to for any extra info your ever unsure about which is really helpful too. Highly recommended nursery especially with the recent Ofsted inspection results to give you extra assurance over your little ones.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.979)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.979) out of 10 for Radmoor Day Nursery 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.979 for Radmoor Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (375 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 383 Ratings = 4.979

  • 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 Radmoor Day Nursery is based on 32 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 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 32 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.

I started at Radmoor Childcare as a student in 2021. After being a student I joined the casual team in 2022 in the summer after achieving my Level 3 Diploma in childcare and education. In January 2023 I decided I wanted to apply for the full-time position at the nursery because I enjoyed watching the children grow and develop through my time as a student and a casual member of staff, Now I currently work with 3 and 4-year-olds.


I enjoy working within the nursery because there are always different challenges that can allow me to learn something new every day. I also enjoy seeing children reach different milestones in their development, especially when a child is proud of themselves for what they are learning to when they are at nursery.
