We are very happy with Chestnuts Nursery. The care for our 18-month-old daughter is excellent and she clearly enjoys spending her day at nursery. We appreciate that there is very low staff turnover, and the staff genuinely seem to care about our daughter's development. One small piece of advice, it
might be helpful to create a guide for new parents through the first few weeks of nursery. It is quite an emotional rollercoaster. The staff had answers for all our questions during this time, and it put our mind at ease, but it could help to put it in a small leaflet or something like that. Thank you for making nursery so enjoyable for our daughter.

My child loves nursery and is very happy at Chestnuts. Her move from baby room to toddlers was seamless and her development has improved month on month.
We are happy with the variety of activities she has access to and the amount of outside time and exercise she gets.

My daughter has been coming to Chestnuts since March and she loves it. The staff have been brilliant at helping her (and me!) settle into our new routine. I like the fact that Chestnuts is small enough for her to get to know all the members of staff and spend time with older children. I'm confident
this is the best nursery for her and I feel happy leaving her here every morning.

My daughter has come on so well since being at nursery and runs through the door every morning. I was nervous leaving her when I went back to work but it is really clear that the staff love and care for her and she feels the same about them.
I can't thank them enough.

We rate Chestnuts Day Nursery very highly. When our son started in June 2017 he was very shy, struggled to separate and had language delay.
Over the past seven months, he has developed age-appropriate language skills and now presents as a confident little boy.
He often greets me saying 'I've had a
lovely day at nursery today' and tells us about the lovely time he has had with both peers and staff.
We are very grateful to Chestnuts for their help with our son's development.

My daughter joined Chestnuts in July 2017 when she was 9 months old. From the initial visit, I felt the nursery had a warm and homely feel.
I was impressed with the activities that the babies get involved with such as the sensory corner, painting, dancing, learning nursery rhymes, themed activity
days etc. Plus there is a huge outdoor play area for the children as well.
Due to the support and dedication of the staff, my daughter has settled into Chestnuts very quickly which made me realise we made the right decision choosing Chestnuts.
We have seen our daughter's social skills come on leaps and bounds over the past 7 months. Thank you Chestnuts!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.539)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.539) out of 10 for Chestnuts 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 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 4.964 for Chestnuts Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (81 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.964

  • 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 4.575 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chestnuts Day Nursery 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 40 number of registered child places is 8. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.875

  • 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.
