My daughter was nervous about starting at Cavendish Lodge and I was too but they have really made my daughter settle in well. She has now got loads of confidence and is thriving in her learning. She sing counts and her talking has come on lots since she started here. All the staff are lovely and I would
recommend this nursery to everyone with children.

I have two children who attend this nursery daily from the minute they stepped through the door they have done nothing but thrive in this setting. Their social and language skills have improved immensely. They absolutely adore all the staff who always greet them with a big smile every day. The nursery
itself is visually stimulating even from the main entrance. Anyone who ever asks me for recommendations for a nursery will always be told Cavendish Lodge Day Nursery/ 1st Safari.

My child loves the staff there. They are always welcoming when dropping off my child.


The inside is extremely visually simulating, the moment walking through the gates you can tell the nursery is very well looked after.


The staff at Cavendish Lodge always seem to be working hard to keep activities

fresh. There seems to be lots of toys and resources available, he always wants to bring toys home!


The outdoor play area is the reason my child joined, the play areas are very large and are safe and secure with lots of equipment for him to play with.


When picking up my child he doesn't want to leave.

My nephew goes to Cavendish Lodge and is really happy there. When picking him up he always wants to tell me his stories for the day and show me this work of the day.


He loves the animals there and will talk about them to anyone who listens.


This is a fantastic place.

My Goddaughter has recently started here and she loves it, when I pick her up she always has a fantastic smile on her face and they provide me with great feedback about the day she had with them. Lots of great learning and development goes on here as all the time she is picking new things up from what
she has done at nursery.
The staff did a fantastic job! The nursery to be at.

My little boy started nursery at the beginning of March, he settled in straight away. The staff are fantastic and made me feel at ease leaving him. He really enjoys his time at nursery and has learnt so much is such little time.

At first, I was worried about my child settling in but Cavendish Lodge and all the staff helped him settle into nursery really well. He loves coming into nursery each and every day.
It's hard to try and get him to come home from all the fin activities which they provide.

I have two children and both suffer with social anxiety. They both have settled extremely well and have received immense support from the staff at Cavendish Lodge, especially the two senior members of staff. Both children have gone through massive changes at home with their dad moving out of the house,
however, the staff at Cavendish have made sure this hasn't affected their education or development. The staff are great and beyond incredible.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Cavendish Lodge 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 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 5.000 for Cavendish Lodge Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (240 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 5

  • 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 Cavendish Lodge Day Nursery 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, 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.
