Our daughter first started at Heirs and Graces in August 2023 when she was 11 months old and in this time she has thrived and thoroughly enjoyed all three rooms she has progressed through.
Nursery staff are professional and genuinely passionate about the children they care for. As parents, we've always
felt supported, confident and reassured by the standard of communication and updates we have received, this is the exact peace of mind needed when you are heading off to work for the day.
There is a lovely feel to the nursery when you walk in, it has a traditional home from home environment. The children are relaxed, happy and have lots of variety in terms of activities and toys on a daily basis.
The menu is highly varied and rotated regularly to ensure the children receive a balanced diet.
I couldn't recommend this nursery enough, we are so pleased we picked Heirs and Graces. The management team are clearly very experienced and know what they are doing.

Where do I start? From the moment you walk in the door, you feel welcome, like part of the family. From the cook to the maintenance man to the room staff to the management; kind, caring, friendly, fair, lovely people. Both of my children have had the most wonderful experience. Cannot recommend highly
enough.

My daughter has just graduated from Heirs and Graces Day Nursery. She has been coming to this nursery since she was 9 months old and she is now 4. I can honestly say that we made the right decision sending our daughter to this nursery!
The care and compassion the staff have with the children is 100%.
Myself and her father could not fault it. The staff will spend 1:1 quality time with your child and focus on certain needs that your child needs more help with. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting nursery, from such a young age, and all with the help from Heirs and Grace staff. Any questions or concerns, staff and management are always there to help and give that reassurance.
Our youngest daughter is now currently going to Heirs and Graces, and we can’t wait to see her blossom. The nursery is beautiful, clean, and spacious, with a big outdoor garden for the children to play in.
Highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for somewhere for their child.

Really lovely team who provide engaging days for our daughter. Our little girl has made some lifelong friends at nursery and runs in now rather than being nervous like she was at the start. Her personality is encouraged as are her areas of interest, we like the child-led approach to learning.
The outside
space is good bearing in mind there isn't much room, what they have is perfectly formed.
We like our daughter to have a varied diet and she certainly does at nursery! We love the fact she gets food there that we wouldn't necessarily cook at home, experiencing different cultures is important to us. There's maybe slightly too much cake some days would be my only negative feedback.

My daughter has been in Heirs and Graces now since she was 10 months old, starting in Baby Hedgehogs and then going up to Little Badgers. The team in Baby Badgers are simply brilliant and from all the daily pictures, updates, reports that we receive on a daily basis really indicate that my daughter
loves going to Heirs and Graces and because of the support of her key workers, we really are seeing her come on leaps and bounds. Keep being brilliant!

My son is always very happy when going into preschool, which I feel is a reflection of the support, nurturing, and fun he has whilst there. He has developed so much in his phonics and writing since starting preschool and has a wonderful relationship with all staff in his class, as well as lots of friends.
As a parent, I feel well informed and updated with events and I know I can approach any staff member who will always listen to our needs.
Most recently my son was diagnosed with lactose intolerance and one member of staff in particular and the cook were brilliant in supporting us with this need.

Heirs and Graces are outstanding in every way. My little girl started at the age of 9 months and I instantly was reassured she was in the care of loving professionals. She has always absolutely loved going in. The team are so dedicated, thoughtful and creative. We are regularly updated throughout the
day with fabulous photos and videos and are always greeted with an update from the day from her key workers. We get regular detailed progress reports which are personalised and thorough in all developmental areas. I would highly recommend the nursery!

Outstanding nursery - my 2 sons have been here since 2020 and they are incredible. Staff is professional, friendly, and welcoming. They always go the extra mile ensuring my sons are happy, learning, and safe. My sons run into nursery every day happy and excited for the day ahead. That's thanks to the
staff, and the fun-to learn culture. My son seems to be progressing well with his writing, numbers, and phonics, and he’s more than ready for school when he leaves in August for school in September. I’m sure we will all be so sad for him to leave and start a new adventure, but we can thank Heirs and Graces the staff for shaping the young boys they will become. Thanks to the staff - I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone that asks.

The nursery itself is always clean and tidy.
Such a wonderful nursery, I couldn’t wish for more from a nursery.

My child has been attending Heirs and Graces for three years and each year his development has been amazing.
The staff in and around the nursery have been amazing in helping him and keeping us as parents up to date on how he is doing.
He will come home from nursery, often bringing home his creations
that have been made in nursery and telling me about his day with everything he has learnt or done in his day.
Heirs and Graces Nursery is an excellent nursery that I would encourage anyone with preschool children to have their child attend the nursery.
Excellent nursery.

Outstanding provision. Key workers are extremely attentive and supportive to our son. Great social and learning opportunities every session and we are regularly kept up to date with all ongoing. Opportunity for parental involvement with invites to read along to groups, which the children all love. Great
mix of meals and encouragement for our son to try different foods. Creative activities and lots of learning through play.

I think you are all amazing the way you look after the kids and keep them entertained. My granddaughter's development has been brought on so much. The impact on her social skills and confidence is also evident. I’m amazed at the creativity of the activities you do with the children. I also love the
communication you have via the app, I look forward to the notifications about what she has been doing during the day. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend, well done!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.972)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.972) out of 10 for Heirs and Graces 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.972 for Heirs and Graces Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (315 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.972

  • 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 Heirs and Graces Day Nursery is based on 27 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 118 number of registered child places is 23.6, which has been reached with 27 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.
