Absolutely outstanding care provided. My daughter is so settled and at home at Westwards! The staff go above and beyond. The nursery communicate extremely well with family. A wide range of activities is available for children and lots of engaging trips into the local community.

Reply from Seijal Odedra, Director at Westwards Nursery School

This is lovely to hear, we are really pleased to receive your feedback.
Being a long established nursery, with long serving staff means all the staff know all the children and their families. Our families trust and choose the setting as we are a home away from home. We are lucky with our central location, as it means that we are always out in the community and wider a field in our minibus.
The staff will be very happy to read your comments thank you.

My son has been at Westwards Nursery School for almost 2 years. He has been happy every day going to nursery and we know that he is well taken care of each and every day. The food is great and very well balanced, the staff are kind and so affectionate. I couldn't rate it highly enough.

Thank you so much for your feedback, one of our main goals is happy children! We are fortunate in having a fantastic chef on-site, who cooks delicious, well-balanced and nutritious meals for the children. Thanks again!

I have had 3 children in this nursery and still currently have 2 at this nursery. Having previously been at a much larger nursery with arguably more facilities, I would choose Westwards Nursery School over that one without a doubt. The care has been excellent and the staff turnover minimal - it is obvious
to me that the staff are very happy there. Happy staff equals happy children. The staff are very warm and friendly and seem to genuinely care. My children have always come home very happy and fulfilled and I have never had any doubt that they are being looked after so well. I couldn’t recommend Westwards Nursery School more. I’ll be so sad when the youngest leaves.

This is really lovely to read thank you so much!
As you know we take huge pride in our ethos; happy staff, happy children, happy parents!
Being a small independent nursery, a home away from home, the staff know all the families and parent partnership is very important to us.
Our manager has been here 24 years and others 17 years so it's great!
Really pleased all 3 of your children have enjoyed nursery so much and we will be equally sad to see you leave!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Westwards Nursery School 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.913 for Westwards Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (252 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.913

  • 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 Westwards Nursery School is based on 23 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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4, which has been reached with 23 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.
