Greengables has been a very positive experience for our daughter. She is very engaged, entertained and cared for. She has made lots of special connections with her teachers and other children. We are very pleased with the standard of care our daughter receives.

The staff are always very open, honest and helpful. Our girls came back having enjoyed and happy with what they have done. A very safe setting, and they look forward to going. They have made some good friends, and their development is really increasing.

Greengables has always been fantastic with our son, and we have always felt safe and confident leaving him the girls care. He always comes home smiling, talking about his teachers, which makes us feel at peace knowing he's had a good day. We get good updates through the app on what he's been up to.
Definitely would recommend this nursery.

I wouldn't have gone back to work without the help and support from Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor). The staff are kind, professional and address each and every query with care. It is always assuring to see my child happy at the end of every day. She settled very well and I can't thank the staffs
at Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor) enough. Highly recommend this nursery.

My 2-year-old son has been attending Greengables for 4 months now and is thoroughly enjoying his time there. It's taking a while for him to settle at drop off, we still have tears but the staff are very patient and understanding and he calms very quickly once in the room. In the months he has been attending,
I've seen him learn new words and start to learn actions to songs, and develop his ways of communication. The covid protocols at the nursery are excellent and the communication to and from the nursery is very good. I would highly recommend Greengables to anyone.

This is an amazing nursery and my daughter loves it. The staff are amazing and have been so helpful over the last few months. I love that they make healthy food on-site for all the kids and are always changing the toys and learning so there's always something new for my daughter to play with and learn.
The app is great, it's the highlight to my day when I get photos and updates whilst at work which show what she is getting up to with her friends!

I have been impressed by this nursery. My son seems to enjoy it and we get regular updates via an app which is reassuring. They also include short videos of him when he achieves a development goal. This is lovely to view during my working day.
I would recommend them.

Greengables is a great nursery. Our daughter has been going since she was 13 months old and is now nearly 3. The way they have handled the Covid pandemic has been brilliant with excellent communication throughout. Thank you to all the staff and especially those in Bumblebees! Couldn’t recommend the
nursery highly enough.

Amazing place and fantastic people. My daughter started in the baby room, now she's in pre-school. All rooms are great and support the child's development - from speech and building up confidence to potty training. Would highly recommend. Our little boy will be starting soon too.

A lovely well run nursery who care for each and every child individually. Always there to help and I feel more than happy that my twins have had the best start with the help of the wonderful staff. Could not recommend more.

My daughter has been attending Greengables Day Nursery since she was 9 months old, following the challenging decision on what nursery to use! I chose Greengables as the building was purpose-built and the staff I met were friendly and they provide everything you need (food/nappies etc). Fast forward
2 years and she is still there and enjoying nursery each week!
Additionally, the way they managed lockdown and the support they provided to myself and my daughter was fantastic!
I continue to recommend this nursery to my friends.

My daughter currently attends Greengables in the pre-school room and has been going to the nursery from 9-months-old. They are a fantastic nursery with staff who really invest in the children and seemingly enjoy their jobs. From her keyworker to the admin team to the chef, my daughter seems to have
a connection with any team member she comes across.
Throughout the changes that have been enforced due to covid, what could have been a scary time for the children, has been dealt with brilliantly at every turn, and I never have any doubts about her wellbeing when I drop her off and look forward to her telling me about all the exciting things she has achieved when I pick her up! Well done to the manager and team and a special mention to one of the girls in pre-school!

My son started at Greengables almost one month ago now, after viewing several nurseries this one felt right immediately! The staff are so helpful and welcoming, and my very clingy 2-year-old son has settled much quicker than I ever thought he would. I’ve recommended this nursery to a few mummy friends
and will continue to do so. It’s lovely to go to work and not worry if he’s ok! He comes out so happy every single day, the updates online with pictures are amazing too and lovely to see he’s having a great time.
His keyworker has been outstanding and helped immensely with his settling in period.
I’m so glad I chose Greengables Day Nursery.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.972)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.972) out of 10 for Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor) 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.972 for Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor) is calculated as follows: ( (315 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.972

  • 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 Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor) is based on 27 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 89 number of registered child places is 17.8, which has been reached with 27 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.
