Just the most beautiful nursery. The staff are beyond wonderful and their care towards the children is something that cannot be taught.
The children strive coming to this nursery and the staff unlock the children's wonderful capabilities and allow them to be their confident selves.
I feel completely
at ease knowing how well my baby is looked after and I enjoy the updates throughout the day and what activities he has done.
Such a lovely outdoor setting too for the children to explore.
Thank you all for being so amazing.

The ladies working there are always happy and friendly. My daughter has always enjoyed going there and is never sad when I leave her! The staff are honest about how she's been through the day and don't sugar coat it if she has had a bad day. They do fun activities, including messy ones, I wouldn't want
to do at home! The meals sound great too.

Thank you for a lovely review, we really appreciate it and getting messy is our absolute favourite! Thanks again.

A lovely nursery with a kind staff. My daughter has been at Corner House Nursery since she was 13 months old and is now nearly 3. The team has been so wonderful with her and she has learned so much. Lots of opportunities to develop skills indoors and outdoors. Great choice of food daily. They are cared
for.

My current 8-year-old attended and my now 4-year-old is currently in Corner House Nursery Frodsham. The staff haven’t changed much during this time and they are the true asset of the place. From my firstborn's first day until now I literally cannot fault them. They get to know each individual child
so well. They know their likes and dislikes, what makes them tick and how to encourage the best in them. The level of play (teaching) is second to none. My eldest was so ready for school when the time came and I can see my 4-year-old will be the same. He’s currently learning his phonics and truly finds it fun! He’s so excited to tell us the new sound he’s learnt. The food has always been exceptional. I remember during lockdown having to contact the nursery for their sausage casserole recipe my son missed it so much!

Reply from Jenni McDougall, Operations Project Manager at Corner House Nursery Frodsham

Thank you for your glowing recommendation, we really appreciate it, I'll have to look up that sausage casserole recipe myself! from the team at Thrive.

Absolutely fantastic nursery! We moved here from another setting and my only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner. Girls are fab and my little one has made lots of lovely friends.
Key workers spend the time and effort to talk you through anything and everything that you may be unsure of, even to help
with the funded hours that confuse every parent I know.
They put lots of effort into events, nativities, Valentine's, stay and plays and group events, like walks in the forest for all the parents to join too.
100% recommend.

My son has been at Cornerhouse Frodsham since February 2021 and he has thoroughly enjoyed every day he has spent there. The staff are exceptional and always have his best interests at heart. They are caring and compassionate and form close bonds with all the children. They support the local community
as well as individuals on-site by way of donations and gifts at Christmas time. The nursery is always clean and hygienic and there is plenty of outside space. Any health issues are dealt with efficiently and there are excellent levels of contact and updates. I would thoroughly recommend to anyone.

I have two children currently in this nursery. They have both been there since they were babies. This nursery is brilliant and what makes it so brilliant has to be the staff! They go above and beyond for all the children. They are always doing different activities, they have a great selection of toys/books.
The staff know all the children individually and my two feel very comfortable with everyone. At Christmas, they held a nativity that parents could attend and it was amazing! My children are always excited to tell me all the things they have been doing/learning in the nursery. There is excellent communication with parents. My kids love the food and most of the time have seconds! They also have an amazing outdoor space. 5 stars all round.

My youngest is in the baby room after having such a fantastic experience with my eldest at Corner House.

The staff at Corner House Nursery go above and beyond to meet the needs of the children. They provide endless opportunities to ensure they have fun and thrive in their development. When we drop him off we feel like we are leaving him in the care of a family member as they just have a lovely personal
touch that I think is hard to find. My little boy loves coming and we are so lucky to have each and every one of the staff in our lives.

Couldn’t ask for more from Corner House. Caterpillar room has been so accommodating and welcoming to our little one. After a tough start they have now settled in brilliantly and coming out of their shell each day they are there. One staff member in particular has been amazing and is a credit to the
nursery.

My son has been in the baby room from about 7 months old, and he loves his nursery days. We chose Corner House after a couple of recommendations that the staff were great there, and we haven’t been disappointed. They make both me, and him, feel so at ease as they are warm and welcoming every morning,
and you can genuinely tell that he enjoys being in their company. The setting is clean and homely, and they set up plenty of activities throughout the day.

My little girl loves it at Corner House Frodsham. Each room is bright and roomy and has lots of resources. Every member of staff is friendly and also free to talk when you need to. My little girl goes in happy and comes home full of beans! There’s lots of outdoor play and crafts. When I got my free
childcare, two members of staff immediately helped talk me through what to do next. I have no doubt that my daughter is well cared for.

I am so pleased that I chose to send my little one to Corner House - it is such a nurturing and fun place for her! The staff are amazing; thoughtful, confident and kind - all of the practices that they have in place to assist a child beginning nursery for the first time are brilliant. They tailor their
approach to each child individually and are just fantastic at what they do. I can’t express how happy I am that I chose this nursery! And thank you!

My little girl has attended Corner House Nursery, Frodsham (formerly Homestead) since she was 9 months old. Each room has been outstanding and we couldn’t ask for any more! The staff are so nurturing and go above and beyond each and every day. The activities planned and the overall environment is always
welcoming and engaging. The outside areas have recently been renovated and already my little girl loves what they have to offer. The animals that the nursery cares for add excitement to her day and allow the children to develop additional skills. The meals provided are nutritious and plentiful with dietary requirements carefully considered. The family feel of the nursery first attracted us to it and this has continued throughout our little girl’s time there. A fabulous nursery, would definitely recommend!

Reply from Jemma Binanti, Marketing Executive at Corner House Nursery Frodsham

Thank you so much for taking the time to review us. We are delighted that your little girl enjoys nursery so much and that she is enjoying our newly improved outside areas. It is wonderful to hear your comments about our lovely team, a family feel is exactly what we strive to offer! Many thanks, The Thrive Team.

Our son has been in busy bees for 6 months; we have been blown away by this nursery. The staff go above and beyond. They are caring and attentive and the nursery manager is always prompt in responding to queries. The nursery is clean, I feel like he is safe and they have done an excellent job at prepping
him for school. Our son's key worker is very caring and our son adores her. Our son will really miss the staff when he leaves to start school in September. I can't thank the team enough for everything they've done. You are angels thank you!

My child recently moved into the Butterfly room of the nursery and the staff in the room made the transition so easy for her. The care and support given by all the staff in the nursery is amazing and we can’t fault it.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.942)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.942) out of 10 for Corner House Nursery Frodsham 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.942 for Corner House Nursery Frodsham is calculated as follows: ( (227 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 4.942

  • 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 Corner House Nursery Frodsham is based on 20 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 92 number of registered child places is 18.4, which has been reached with 20 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.
