Set in a fully upgraded and refurbished Victorian School building, Cherubs Kimberley has been providing high quality early years care and education for children since June 2003. Spread across 4 age-appropriate rooms, a self-contained Baby Unit and with 4 different outdoor spaces (including Baby Garden, Toddler Garden and Pre-School Garden) for children to enjoy (curated bespoke by Timotay Playscapes) - this nursery really does have it all.

The nursery has its own tranquil and sensory rooms, too. Here, Educators plan targeted STEM activities or provide additional support for those children with special editions needs (SEN).

Having been with my daughter for her first 2 years it was quite upsetting for her to be left at nursery for the first time, (and for me!). However, my daughter and the team really have been fabulous and supportive and now we have hardly any tears. My daughter has come on leaps and bound since starting
Cherubs and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to other parents.

A wonderful nursery with extremely caring staff. My eldest daughter loved her time there and enjoys returning now to pick up her younger sister. My youngest loves her time there and they fully support her development

Our daughter has been going to Cherubs Kimberley for a few months and loves it. The staff helped her settle in brilliantly, and her key worker provides us with useful daily feedback. They are very proactive in furthering her development, and providing her with relevant activities to do so. The meals
provided are excellent and provide her with a varied/healthy diet. The outdoor areas are fantastic, and provide the children with great access to explore and play.

My son loved every minute of going to Cherubs Kimberley, it is a lovely nursery and has lots of outside space. The staff are very knowledgeable and care about the children that attend. It definitely helped develop my little boy into the intelligent and confident person he has become.


He will also

attend wrap around care next year and his sister will be starting next year too.

Inspirational leadership. The manager's enthusiasm for learning and developing new ideas shows no bounds. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. My son has always looked forward to going to nursery and said he has had a good day. Staff embrace challenges, like the progress to potty training, with
confidence and realism which makes me feel secure and happy that my son is in good hands.

Cherubs Kimberley is an amazing nursery. My son has just left to move onto primary school. Cherubs have nurtured all of my sons abilities and helped to give him new abilities. I truly believe he wouldn't be the boy he is today were it not for this nursery - I actually held him back a year for them to
continue with the great work they were doing, and that has been the best decision I have made about his life to date. The staff are all lovely and the setting is fantastic -there's a lovely vibe to the place, you can both see and feel the heart that has gone into it by the wonderful manager.
It's big, lots of space, facilities and equipment are good, there are lots of animals and even a beach to play on. On many occasions my son has cried at home time because he wanted to stay longer, which speaks absolute volumes. Highly recommended and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everybody involved in my sons pre-school years, we will be forever grateful for everything and we will miss you all a lot.

My little boy has been going to Cherubs since he was 9 months old, and he is now 21 months. From the beginning he settled in very well, and has clearly always been happy at nursery. The staff are all brilliant with him, they have an excellent variety of good, home cooked food, and a great range of play
activities. The nursery has been excellent at providing childcare flexibly as I can work on different days from week to week. The manager is very nice, easy to contact and very approachable. They have allowed me to return to work safe in the knowledge that he is well cared for and happy, and I honestly couldn't ask for more.

Provision of homemade food is fantastic. The staff have worked well with my child to settle him in and each room we have found a few members of staff that have alwasy gone that extra step with him. I am more than happy to name people if you find the informtaion useful. Extra activities are talked about
often with large smiles. The mini zoo outside is magical especially in the earlier room, a great distration when there wasnt mum or dad. Also amazed at how they are alwasy rejinventing spaces in and outside :)

Overall it's a good nursery and my daughter enjoys attending. She likes the staff and likes to play with

My experience of Cherubs nursery and the staff has been great. Our daughter has settled in so well and has come on so much despite me only working part time. She loves socialising with the others and always has lots of little stories to tell me when she comes home.My daughter especially loves and talks
about her key worker.

My child attends cherubs Kimberly 2 full days a week, she loves coming to nursery and is very settled, she always asks to come to nursery and play with friends. Her development and social skills have come on extremely well, staff are excellent at identifying her personal needs and interests, they are
all happy and listen to any concerns or worries I may have. I've looked at other nurseries and they all seem poor in comparison. As a first time mum staff have been very helpful and made us feel very welcome.

Kimberley nursey is a very welcoming nursery. Always there to help. My nephew seems very happy and loves coming to nursery. All the staff are always happy and make us feel happy to leave. The outside area is fantastic and we love the animals and helps the children develop different activities. The
nursery is always clean and tidy and plenty of information us given out. Also the staff help with development and show parents everything they have been doing like learning journeys and mini observations.

My nephew attends the setting on a Thurs and a Fri and absolutely loves it!! I pick him up quite regular as Mum works late, but hes always so excited to tell me about what hes been doing all day! His favourite thing at the minute seems to be the beach. The nursery offers such a wide range of indoor
and outdoor equipment enough to keep my nephew on his toes!! I as an Aunt couldn't be more happier with every staff member at the setting, their hard work is really appreciated within my family :) x

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.880)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.880) out of 10 for Cherubs Kimberley 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 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 4.880 for Cherubs Kimberley is calculated as follows: ( (342 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 384 Ratings = 4.88

  • 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 Cherubs Kimberley 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 135 number of registered child places is 27, 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.
