From the first moment we visited Castle Hill Day Nursery all the staff there were incredibly attentive to our baby, made him feel comfortable straight away took him to have a little play and a wonder about. They clearly explained all the procedures, pricing (which is very reasonable!) and the environment
overall made you feel like at home. The nursery ladies are incredible with our little one every single day, they create a safe and fun environment and are fantastic with all the activities, arts and crafts, baking, playing and everything else and we can see how it helps our baby develop. Castle Hill Day Nursery is all you can wish for your little one and more! I couldn't recommend it enough!

I can not thank the Deputy Manager and all the amazing staff at Castle Hill Day Nursery. My daughter started in September 2021 and it's amazing to see how far she has come. She always looked forward to going, telling us she loves nursery day. We had issues with trying to get her potty trained, and thanks
to the staff, she now uses the toilet regularly. Her speech has improved dramatically and she is no longer that shy little girl anymore. I am sad to see her leave, but I know she will be ok in primary school thanks to all the hard work they put in. Not only my child, but others I have spoken to also have nothing but praise for them. So, thank you all and I can't wait for my little boy to start with you in January.

My son has had the most amazing time at nursery. He has come on leaps and bounds and he loves every minute. He can’t wait to tell us about his day when he comes home. My son will be attending as he calls it ‘big school’ in September but we will continue to use Castle Hill Day Nursery for after school
care as I know he will be happy, safe and well looked after.

Reply from Zara Morris, Manager at Castle Hill Private Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your lovely review, we are glad we will still see him for wrap around care.

Excellent, friendly staff who are always accommodating. Kids really enjoy it. Both kids have learnt from their time at the nursery and were upset to leave to progress to school. Staff are engaging, helpful and caring.

My daughter attends Castle Hill Private Day Nursery and I find the nursery really well organised. The staff are brilliant with the kids and really friendly. My daughter's speech came on a lot when she first started and she enjoys interacting with other children, she has friends at nursery and is always
telling me what she’s done and who she’s played with when she comes home. I find they have a lot of activities for the kids and I couldn’t recommend a better nursery. I’m always updated on how she’s done in the day, what she’s eaten and I find that brilliant, even during Covid, I found the nursery managed it really well and we always had an email if someone had a case. I couldn’t recommend this nursery anymore if I tried, it’s amazing for my daughter and I’m glad she attends.

My child absolutely loves going to nursery. We drop him off and don't even get a look back. When we collect him he's always full of beans which shows us he's had a fabulous day. Since starting at Castle Hill Private Day Nursery, my child's confidence and speech have come on leaps and bounds. I couldn't
thank them and praise them enough. Excellent team.

Castle Hill Day Nursery has an amazing team who put fun at the heart of everything they do.
The team are amazing, building relationships with both child and parent very quickly to ensure that you as a parent feel happy about the care your child is receiving and that your child looks forward to seeing
them every day. My son was full time for 3 years until he started infant school and I still use the nursery for school holidays. The nursery is divided into 3 key areas all ensuring they nurture each child to bring out their confidence, sense of exploration and curiosity, the team update daily on your child's day and the books you get at the end of their time in each group are fantastic and show the journey your child has been on from baby room through to pre-school. The team ensure there is lots of outdoor fun and regularly take the children on adventures and the outdoor facilities cater for every child encouraging sharing and group play.
The teamwork hard to make life as a working parent easier.

Castle Hill is a gorgeous learning environment. Staff are delightful, professional, caring, and seem to have a genuine affection for the children in their care. Kids spend lots of time outdoors and do a wide range of exciting and stimulating activities.
Staff were very accommodating with my preference
for using cloth nappies and reusable wipes and also facilitated potty training really well.
The nursery communicates well with parents and is flexible with individual requirements.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Castle Hill Day Nursery to any prospective parents.

My child has attended Castle Hill day nursery since July and he is loving it. He started when he was 1 years old and did struggle a bit at first but with the support from the nursery staff my child now loves going to nursery and has come home with some wonderful artwork. I also get daily updates about
what my child has eaten and done that day so I can share it with family members. Overall it’s a very home from home setting and a lovely outdoor area in which my child loves to explore in a very safe environment.

Castle Hill Private Day Nursery has been absolutely amazing with settling my daughter in. My daughter really struggled to settle with anyone else apart from me, her mum.
They worked alongside me and her dad to ensure that we were comfortable and that she was also comfortable. We did so many settling
in sessions before she started properly which worked so well. Seeing my daughter happily playing absolutely makes my day.
I would highly recommend Castle Hill Day Nursery, the staff are amazing.

I am really happy with this nursery and my little boy loves it here.
The drop-off and pick up facility to the school is brilliant.
All the staff are really friendly and approachable.
The member of staff I mainly deal with has just been amazing and nothing seems a problem.

My daughter loves going to nursery every day, she’s been going since she was 10 months old and is now almost 2. I know she’s in safe hands. She partakes in many activities and brings things she has made home.

My children have attended Castle Hill Day Nursery for around 9-years. I have always found the staff helpful, friendly and supportive; they always strive to provide the best care for children and babies attending. The nursery has a lovely homely feel to it and is clean and welcoming. My children are
always eager to go there, and come back happy and chatting about the activities they have been up to. I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to other families.

Castle Hill Day Nursery is fab. All three of my children have attended. We were attracted by the warm and friendly atmosphere. This has made our experiences there happy and memorable. It feels a bit like an extended family, the staff are invested in the children. Communication has always been great.
The lockdown and subsequent reopening were handled extremely well with weekly updates, more if needed, and lots of support for those returning. Would highly recommend.

We have sent both of our children to Castle Hill day nursery over the last 6-years and now continue to do so for wrap-around care. The staff are so friendly, warm and caring. Our children have been so happy there and have developed so much thanks to the activities and fun the nursery coordinates. A
healthy and varied menu means the children come home with bursting tummy’s each day, they definitely eat better there than at home!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.899)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.899) out of 10 for Castle Hill Private Day Nursery 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.899 for Castle Hill Private Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.899

  • 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 Castle Hill Private Day Nursery is based on 10 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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2, which has been reached with 10 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.
