This is an excellent nursery that I would recommend to all, lovely facilities and the staff are incredibly warm, helpful and engage with the children so well. My daughter absolutely loves it and would even go on weekends if she could! She has definitely developed a lot since starting, clear from her
confidence, fine motor skills and speech. I get regular updates on the app which is really great to see all the fun activities and learning she is doing.

My son and I love the nursery and the staff, he has been attending since he was 1 and he’s 20 months now. From day one he has just strolled in, he is clearly adored by staff and he adores them too. They are all friendly, caring, approachable and will answer any questions you may have. They keep you
updated very well verbally as well as by the app. I would definitely recommend Hamilton Nursery to friends and family.

My daughter is currently in the process of being diagnosed with autism and struggles with new places and people. The staff at Hamilton Nursery have gone above and beyond to accommodate and make my little one comfortable. My little one loves going to nursery and we are very happy with the level of care
my daughter is receiving.

My little boy has been at this nursery since September 2022 he was very nervous and upset when first starting but now he can’t wait to go to school, all the staff are very helpful and loving towards the kids. Since he has been going to Hamilton Nursery his talking is really coming along and he loves
interacting with all staff and children. Really are a great team and I’m proud to send my son there!

The staff at the nursery is very caring and loving and the best part is they are all very well informed. From the first day itself everyone around knew the name of my daughter and about her even when they weren’t the class teacher. They care about the kids needs and likings and my daughter is super
happy.

My son went to the nursery for around a year and a half, he’s very shy but the nursery made him so welcome he loved going. The staff were great and so was management. Would recommend it to friends and family. Thanks for everything you do for my boy.

My child settled into Hamilton nursery very easily. The friendly and caring staff have brought out his little character. He comes home each day happy and it’s clear to see he enjoys his time there. He is learning and developing each day.

My three-year-old son was supposed to start at Hamilton Nursery in March 2020 but due to COVID-19 he was unable to start then. The staff, once back and open, did get in touch and stayed in touch till my son started in August 2020. They even set up a Zoom call just before he started to show as all the
changes and safety measures put in place which put our minds at ease. Even though my son has only recently started you can really see he has come on in leaps and bounds, his speech is improving and his confidence is definitely growing. The nursery staff are very caring and friendly and the atmosphere and environment at the nursery is always happy. My three year old goes to nursery with a smile on his face and when I pick him up his smile is still there.

As a new mum going back to work I was very anxious about leaving my son, from the first meeting me and my son fell in love. The atmosphere was incredible, so calm and inviting and it showed me I had nothing to worry about. My son has been attending Hamilton Nursery for some time and he is so so happy!
As am I. The staff are absolutely amazing so accommodating and helpful. The app is also so helpful and I love to see my son's development and pictures on it. It shows you what he’s eaten and his key worker is communicating with me constantly. I genuinely can’t fault this place! It’s been one of the best decisions for me and my son that we found such a gem! So if you’re looking for a friendly, warm welcoming and kind place for your child look no further. Hamilton Nursey 10/10.

The nursery has excelled itself since it changed hands. Staff are amazing and really attentive to my child’s needs. They have progressed my child in many ways, and it shows through his behaviour and ability. The staff are very approachable and will go beyond to ensure they can do the best for you and
your child.

My son has been going here for some while now; I can't fault it. Friendly staff and lots of space for the kids to play and learn. Also love the fact that they have moved with the times and embraced the technology they have available, very easy to communicate via the app, and they are always open to
suggestions.

My daughter has been here since the beginning of December, and I couldn’t fault it at all! She absolutely loves being here and has developed so much! I get updates daily of my daughter's day, and we love to come home and discuss what she has been learning and how much fun she has had!

Both my children love it at Hamilton Nursery. My youngest settled in so quickly, and I know that this is down to the staff. Staff take time to listen to parents and really care for the children. My eldest has made so much progress, and this is due to the carefully thought out activities. I would definitely
recommend Hamilton Nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.507)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.507) out of 10 for Hamilton Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 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 4.799 for Hamilton Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (194 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.799

  • 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 4.708 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hamilton Nursery is based on 17 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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.708

  • 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.
