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!

Absolutely amazing nursery, my child has come out of her shell and has learnt so much at nursery ready for when she starts big school. The staff are absolutely amazing, kind and helpful at all times and have made my and my daughters experience at nursery smooth and enjoyable. They have supported us
totally through the pandemic to make sure the children still get the care and attention they need and I would highly recommend this nursery for everybody, the best nursery by far. Thank you Birch Grove for making my daughter's nursery experience exceptional and enjoyable!

My daughter has been here for nearly three years and loves going, she comes home each time with something new to show and tell me. The staff are amazing, very caring and give each child the time they need. The food is different every day and always balanced. I recommend this nursery very highly and
my daughter will be very sad to leave in September.

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.

Amazing nursery. Both my boys go there, one being disabled and the nursery go above and beyond to accommodate. They both love going into nursery and run in every morning. I’ll be really sad when my eldest leaves for school this year.

My son has been at nursery since he was 8 months old. He absolutely loves to be in there. Staff are amazing, knowledgeable, kind, funny and always happy to help. I have never come across any that didn't have time for me. They have genuine interest if you need to talk to them. My son learned so much
and teachers make learning so fun. He has grown up into a confident, smart and kind little boy who is ready for reception in September. We both will miss the lovely staff and atmosphere from Birch Grove but I can truly and honestly say that they have made him ready for this big next chapter of his life.

Birch Grove Day Nursery has always been a great place for my daughter. She started when she was 10 months old and the staff were amazing, kind, friendly and gave lots of support. My daughter loves her friends and staff at nursery and is now in the preschool group loving all the activities. Love the
nursery and appreciate all the care and attention the staff give each child.

Wow! Such a welcoming environment for both the children and the parents. Both my boys settled quickly and enjoy going to the setting. All staff are friendly, helpful and supportive. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I am confident that my boys are in excellent care when I leave them. I would recommend
this setting to anyone.

My son has been at Birch Grove since he was a baby.
He has progressed marvellously. This all down to the staff who have been very supportive and professional.
My son has loved being at Birch Grove, it's played a big part in his development.
Soon he will be leaving to go to reception at his new school
and he will miss all the wonderful staff greatly.
And so will I.
Thank you for all your great support and help over the years, we will miss each and every one of you!

Great staff, friendly atmosphere. Our son started this nursery crying every day at drop off but by the end, he loved going and made a few friends. Staff worked with us to potty train. Homework was given to boost learning, great staff.

My son joined Birch Grove just under 2 years ago, aged 2.5 years. He was very shy, nervous and quiet outside of his comfort zone.


The staff at Birch Grove took on his needs with kindness, patience and compassion. He soon came out of his shell and was allowed to do so at his own pace whilst also

receiving gentle encouragement.


Big plus points for us have been the large and well-maintained garden, outside areas and play equipment. Inside there are lots of little areas for different activities like role play, IT, reading etc. The age groups are taken to their own areas to do age-appropriate learning activities.


Staff are knowledgeable, friendly, polite and courteous. It is clear that everyone who works there is there because they love their job. As a parent I have never worried about leaving my son in their care, it is undoubtedly safe and well managed. I have felt supported and have had a lovely relationship with both my child's key workers.


I highly recommend Birch Grove.

I would recommend Birch Grove Nursery as it is a very well run nursery. The staff are very committed to providing a caring environment for the children. I can sense that it's a friendly environment between the staff. Also very impressed with the mixture of activities that are organised there. The lasting
feeling is my son has had a great start to learning.

My two children (3 and 1) have been going to Birch Grove since April and both absolutely love being there. I knew as soon as I walked into the nursery for a visit, this was the one that my children would be going to. They have both come on in leaps and bounds within the few months of being here. The
nursery staff are very welcoming to parents/carers but the love and care they have for the children is amazing. Both of their key workers are great and are always full of information at the end of each day. I love speaking with them and hearing about what they have both been up to throughout the day. I feel very confident in leaving my children with the amazing staff and I know if they have any concerns they will call me straight away. Nothing is ever too much for the staff and they are always happy to help. I would definitely recommend the nursery to anybody looking.

Birch Grove is a fantastic nursery with amazing staff. It has a lovely warm welcoming feeling when you walk in and the staff always greet you with a smile. The way in which they treat the children is amazing. They teach them to become independent, to try new things but most of all how to learn whilst
having fun. My little boy has been going for 2 years and I can honestly say he is turning into such a clever confident little boy with the support of all the staff here. He always has a full tummy and a smile on his face when I pick him up. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the staff and they spend time at the end of each day to tell me what my little boy has been up to and has learnt that day. I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to anyone and will miss all the girls and parents when we leave in September. Keep up the great work girls.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.936)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.936) 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 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.936 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate is calculated as follows: ( (148 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.936

  • 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 Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate is based on 13 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 13 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.
