My daughter has been going to this nursery for over a year now. She absolutely loves it and so do I, every single time she comes out her speech has developed even more as the weeks go by.
The manager is incredible and we have formed such a special relationship with her, she goes above and beyond for
every single one of the children that attend. You can see how much the children mean to her and how much she loves her job.
The staff members are also amazing, handover is always in depth and my child always comes out with a smile on her face.
I will be sending my other little girl her too when she is old enough.

My little boy has been attending this nursery for a year and loves it. Never upset to go in, always in a great mood at pick up. That says it all really.
Staff are warm and approachable, updates are thorough.
I feel like the app could be better utilised for things like developmental updates. But
it's nice knowing what they've eaten through the day and the occasional snapshot of activities.
They have a spacious outdoor area which they spend lots of time in (weather permitting).
Indoor area has lovely little nooks, messy play, home living, sensory.
I love that they have a separate dining area to replicate school/home dining.
Manager/parent communication is great, the manager keeps us up to date on everything and is always on hand for any issues.
Only reason I'm marking down learning is because my son is only 1.5 and I'm not sure what he's actually "learning" at this age (again developmental updates on app would help here)
Would definitely recommend this setting to others.

Reply from Charlotte, Parent Relations at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate

Thank you so much for your lovely review! It is wonderful to hear that your little boy loves nursery and is always happy at pick-up. That is exactly what we hope for, and it means so much to know he enjoys his time with us. We are so pleased that you find our team warm and approachable and that communication with the manager has been helpful. Your feedback on the app is really appreciated, and we will certainly take that on board as we continue to look for ways to improve how we share developmental updates. It is great to hear that you love the different areas of the nursery, including the dining space and outdoor environment. Providing children with a variety of engaging spaces to explore is something we are really passionate about. Thank you again for your recommendation and for sharing your experience.

A really nice and well thought out nursery. My daughters absolutely love it there, so much so that my 2 year old chose to go to nursery on Friday instead of spending her day with daddy!
The staff are passionate and well trained and there's a real family atmosphere to the entire setting. I'm always
kept up to date with my 2 daughters' progress/activities through the app and, most importantly, through face to face conversation with the staff who speak to me respectfully and graciously.
This nursery keeps going from strength to strength. Keep up the great work!

My son has just completed his first year at this nursery and they have been outstanding. The support they give individually to each child is amazing and it has benefited him so much.
The setting itself is so well organised and has so many things for the children to do and play with. The communication
between nursery staff and myself is very good and they always inform me of my child’s progress and what he has achieved, even down to what he’s had for lunch that day and it’s always a healthy balanced meal.

Welcome Nurseries @ Padgate is by far the best nursery I have used throughout my 18 years as a parent. The staff are amazing and genuinely care for the children. They are more than accommodating and flexible. Kind, caring and professional are just a few words I have to say about them. The staff go above
and beyond for the children they look after! They hand over with detail and are always interested in the home lives. Regular update from day-to-day activities. The manager and deputy manager are wonderful and very approachable. I would and have recommended this nursery over and over and over! Thank you for being you. Amazing job! If I could give it 100 stars, I would.

The staff are lovely and my child seems to have a good relationship with the key workers. I do wish that the nursery would send a bit more information about my child to me through the app or email though. When my child first started, we were told that there would be updates via the app every 2 weeks
minimum but after almost a full year I've still not received a single update other than the handover at the door! My child seems happy at the nursery and she has flourished since starting there. Her development has come on leaps and bounds!

My son has attended for 15 months and he absolutely loves it. The main thing he loves about nursery are the staff themselves. On our way home each day he tells me the names of all the staff he’s seen that day. Nursery have gone above and beyond to make sure my little boy is included in everything they
do. For example at a jubilee celebration when there was a buffet that he couldn’t eat due to his allergies - I thought they might have a separate sandwich for him but rather than making him feel different in a negative way the cook made him a whole box of safe options and made him feel extra loved instead! My son has multiple allergies and there’s never been a single slip up where he’s been served something he shouldn’t have or managed to get another child’s food as they manage this so well. He’s learnt so much from nursery and comes home singing a new song most weeks that they’ve been singing. I’m fortunate that my son is only almost 2, so he has a few more years to spend here!

My eldest son had attended this nursery since September 2020 until July 2022 and he has absolutely loved every second of it. Staff have been so encouraging with his development. He was behind in quite a few areas, especially his speech. Since he has attended he has come on by miles. Staff are amazing
and very approachable both for my son but also general day by day updates. Even provided home pack activities for my son when he was off due to an injury ensuring that he didn't miss out on anything, which my son was so happy about. Couldn't have picked a better nursery to take care of my child. Which is why I have now since started sending my youngest child as I have 100% confidence in their abilities to further the children's development. I 100% will be recommending this nursery to my friends and family.

I currently have both my children attending Welcome Nurseries @ Padgate, my eldest is 4yrs and has attended since she was 9 months old. She absolutely loves it, and I wouldn’t of chosen anywhere else for my youngest who has recently started there. Staff are warm, friendly, knowledgable and brilliant
with the children. I found that this really helped them to settle in and to enjoy going back each day. The environment is spacious and I love the large outdoor area, my eldest just loves the space available to play in. Food is healthy and the cook is amazing when providing a variety of snacks and meals which my children always eat. Management team are great and very approachable, I know if I have a question or query about anything they will be happy to help straight away.

My daughter has been going from 9 months old, the baby room was very good with lots of sensory play and adapting to her when she started to walk. As she's moved up through the nursery they do lots of play learning and also help with any concerns that I have had and supported me. I feel she has always
been well looked after at nursery as if they were one of their own. I'm sad that this is an end of an era but so happy I chose this nursery, I've watched my little one blossom into a very confident clever little girl and would highly recommend all the staff and the nursery.

We absolutely love this nursery. The staff are very polite and welcoming. My daughter has learnt so much over the past few months since starting nursery. I always feel confident she is being well looked after when I drop her off and the staff always have time to talk about her day when I collect her.
The nursery puts on different events to involve the parents and their children. This is greatly appreciated and so lovely to be able to see her interacting with the other adults and children in the setting. Thank you!

My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery which is the greatest testament as to the standard and quality of Birch Grove Day Nursery Ltd. She is thriving in every way and I honestly believe that we wouldn’t be able to achieve that, or at least certainly not to the same level, without the input of
the nursery. Thanks to all of the staff and most notably her key worker for shaping her into the happy little character that she is.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.352)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.352) out of 10 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 7 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 4.952 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.952

  • 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 4.4 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.7

  • 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.
