This nursery goes above and beyond to ensure the children and parents are comfortable and happy. It's a big thing leaving a child with new people but they all made the process so easy. Their procedures for safeguarding are brilliant, and I always feel like my child is in good hands. If anything happens
whilst my child is in nursery I get told about it straight away whether it be an accident report or an activity they did as a group. They update you on your child's individual progress too which I think is great. Their facilities are stocked with all sorts of toys, equipment and learning items. You get updated on nappy changes and meals, so you're always informed. My child always comes home happy and that's all you can ask for. Thank you for all you do for all the children. Couldn't be happier picking this nursery.

Always find the staff friendly and approachable and accommodating. My daughter loves the staff and has many friends, they provide a range of different foods and cater to different allergies ect.
They do activities for every holiday and activities to suit each season.
Would definitely recommend.

Since the first day my daughter started this nursery, she's come out of her shell. She's more interactive with other children and her speech has come a long way she seems happier in general. She's always excited to go to nursery and see her friends.

My daughter has attended the nursery since being eight months old and is now three. She has always been so well looked after and comes home every day with a big smile on her face.
All the staff are so caring and fun.
The management is very supportive and helpful and thrives to make any improvements
they can to make the setting even more welcoming, fun and caring than it already is.

I confess that as a mother, I was afraid of how my son would be received at the nursery - if he would cry whenever I left him there, if he would have his bum scratched for spending too long in a diaper, and the truth is that he never cries when I leave him, and until today he hasn't had his bum scratched.
I had an opportunity to spend one hour on his first day, and I enjoyed seeing how he and other children interacted with each other and the way nurseries take care of each child.
The staff are very sweet and friendly, and whenever I have a question, they are always available to answer it.
The best thing is that I have access to all the meals he eats, reports on how his week went and a little more.
I recommend the nursery without hesitation.

My son has settled really well and quickly in the nursery. The staff are all friendly, always smiling and make sure all his needs are met. Everything is always recorded on the app, so I can check what he’s been up to during the day. And the staff also let me know me to know at the end of the day how
he has been. He’s always happy when I collect him.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Oberlin Street Nursery is outstanding in the care of my granddaughter, who I care for daily. The staff are warm and friendly with every child, and they know them intimately. Their setting provides imaginative learning opportunities based on the children’s own interests: for instance, they provided a
star-making activity because my granddaughter likes Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Despite all these wonderful activities, the setting is immaculately clean, tidy and welcoming.
They cater exceptionally well for dietary needs, my granddaughter is dairy free, and she is always included in every food activity. The caterers provide the oat milk she prefers. The staff went out of their way to find dairy-free chocolate so she could make a chocolate cake with everyone else.
The nursery works hard to include parents/carers and family as well, eg grandparents day and parents’ commitment.
The staff take safeguarding very seriously and are well-trained. The setting is safe and secure.
I would highly recommend them.

The nursery has changed a lot since my children started in the baby room. It's absolutely fantastic. Such a welcoming place. The staff are always very helpful and adhere to changes regarding my children.
My children love it here. They come home every day full of stories about their day. I'm informed
regularly through the app about any activities and what they have eaten.
Any queries I have, I can message the manager in the app, and she responds fairly quickly.
I couldn't recommend them enough.

Brilliant nursery. My son started at six months old and has come on so much since starting in January. He's now able to crawl, stand himself up, join in with certain activities and eat solid foods really well. There are never tears when dropping him as he genuinely loves going. The staff are so good
with him and keep me informed on everything he's been up to. Would definitely recommend it.

The nursery has always been fantastic in welcoming us in. My niece absolutely loves the staff and feels comfortable going to them. She sometimes asks to go in on weekends and when she's off sick, which should tell you something. They are all lovely girls and really put the children first.

Oberlin nursery was recommended to me by my sister. My son has been going since he was two years old. All staff are lovely and friendly. He only comes twice a week but always tells me he's had a good day and thing's they have done throughout the day. The food is great and allows him to explore new varieties.
I love the updates and pictures of seeing him doing different things every week also I can always ring to see how his day is going.

My son absolutely loves nursery. He has been attending since he was just over 1 year old (he's currently 16 months old). I was initially nervous but was instantly put at ease when meeting the staff. They are very informative, trustworthy and friendly. I have updates about him throughout the day via
the app and feel very comfortable leaving him in their care. He has since been undergoing tests for a possible neurological condition which inhibits him from meeting his milestones. They are more than happy to help accommodate his needs, liaising with external bodies (physio/occupational therapy etc) to try and get the best care for him, even acquiring suitable equipment for him as he is unable to sit unaided. He is always included in all activities even if it means he requires a little more care. Communication is absolutely fantastic. I want to give an extra mention to one baby room staff member, in particular, who my son adores, he always has a smile on his face for her which is a testament to how great they are.

As a child care practitioner and trainer, I have extremely high expectations of any child care provider. This setting has very standards and constantly strives to achieve outstanding. They are passionate about children and this shows on their interactions with them! My son loves nursery and is keen
to go in the school holidays. Excellent communication between staff and parent, and appreciative of the time that is given to me when I pick my son up.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.956)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.956) out of 10 for Oberlin Street 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 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 4.956 for Oberlin Street Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (263 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 274 Ratings = 4.956

  • 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 Oberlin Street Nursery 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, 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.
