Banana Moon Hatton is different to other nurseries in the area. Situated in three converted barns in a rural location and set in 6.5 acres, including fields, a paddock, an orchard, a tennis court and a vegetable plot, there is plenty of outdoor space to run around and have fun.

The team provides a safe and caring environment for children aged 3 months to 5 years, and is open from 7.30 am to 6.30 pm for 51 weeks of the year.

Banana Moon is able to accommodate 110 full-time children and able to offer sessions from half a day a week to five days a week.

The nursery is very close to the major road networks – the A46 and M40, and only minutes away from both Warwick Parkway and Hatton train stations for trains to London.

CCTV is installed in all rooms and there is a biometric fingerprint entry system, ensuring the safety of the children. The nursery offers two home-cooked hot meals each day, cooked on site by the talented nursery chef.

Staff are very experienced in Early Years Education and offer a very loving, stimulating home from home, in the most beautiful setting - come and see for yourself and visit Banana Moon Hatton.

I now have 2 children at Banana Moon Hatton and they both love it. It is so friendly, all the staff seem to know all the children which I find incredible and I can see the girls flourishing in their care. The office also has an open door policy and I really feel like I can go in at any time to talk
to them about anything, which I often do! I have recommended this nursery to several friends and will continue to do so.

Banana Moon is the most fantastic nursery! Both of our children have been extremely happy here and both thrived. The staff are attentive, caring and professional. The food provided is excellent. The extra activities on offer are brilliant. We are so happy our children are happy at nursery which allows
us to feel at ease when we drop them off for the day. The cherry on the cake is the awesome outdoor space. You will be hard pushed to find another nursery with this on offer!

Can’t rate Banana Moon Hatton highly enough, I didn’t want to send my daughter to nursery but Banana Moon made me feel relaxed very quickly about it and I had total trust in all the staff I got to know. The manager and her team are great!

Absolutely fabulous nursery. My little boy has been in this nursery since 9 months old and is in his final year (pre-school). Feel lucky to have discovered Banana Moon Hatton. It is run to exceptionally high standards, the staff are brilliant and the buildings and outdoor space are second to none.

The whole team is amazing and do an amazing job at caring for the children. They know each child so well and the parent partnership is incredible.
The nursery is in such a lovely part of the countryside and you can see for miles in their huge outdoor paddock.
Our daughter thrives at nursery and has
learnt so much.
We cannot thank the team enough for their compassion and knowledge.

My daughter had a fantastic time at Banana Moon which she hasn't forgotten since going to school. My daughter still loves coming to visit the nursery and always has a warm welcome. While at the nursery she made lots of friends and had lots of fun learning with the fantastic resources and huge, engaging
outside space.

Staff at Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton are fantastic. My son has attended since he was seven months old and his development has thrived. They always have a variety of fun activities and excellent meals which parents are always informed of prior to the week via social media. I am always comfortable
leaving my son here and he loves it - I wouldn't want to put him in any other nursery.

We couldn't be happier with Banana Moon. Our daughter has been attending since she was 18 months old and has recently moved into Play School. We are particularly impressed with the offering Forest School and that all meals are cooked in-house, with no convenience food or sugary drinks such as juice
or squash.
The environment is warm and welcoming with every child being cared for according to their needs.

Thank you so much for your detailed review! Forest School is an amazing experience for the children and we are lucky we can offer it!

My eldest daughter has been attending Banana Moon since July 2016 from 8 months old and our 2nd has also been attending since Sept 2018 at the same age. We could not be happier with the care both have received at the nursery. All staff are caring and compassionate and genuinely have the children’s best
interests at heart. The facilities offered are second to none, especially the large outside space. The home cooked food (2 hot meals a day and healthy snacks) always gets good reports! I can not believe the change I have seen in my eldest child thanks to her time at nursery, particularly in the last year or so. She has become sociable, confident, independent and chatty and that’s all thanks to the hard work that goes on behind the scenes. She always comes home bursting with excitement to tell us about her day! My youngest has thrived equally as much in the few weeks she’s been there and she’s now more than happy to be handed over and greets the staff with a smile every morning!

We are so happy with Banana Moon, both of our children love it. The staff are wonderful. They are incredibly supportive of both the children and parents. Both of my children have come on leaps and bounds thanks to the personalised provision that is offered. We receive regular and pertinent feedback,
which is explained really clearly. The outdoor space is fabulous and the children adore going out and getting messy! The extra activities on offer, such as forest schools and twirling toddlers, are incredibly benificial learning experiences. Most importantly, both my children are excited and happy to go to nursery in the morning and eager to share what they have done when they’ve come home. I can’t recommend Banana Moon Hatton highly enough!

My son has attended the nursery for just over a year and he absolutely loves it! All of the girls make him feel so welcome and he looks forward to coming to nursery every day!


Being a full-time working mum, it is a relief to know that my son is in safe hands with people who genuinely care about

him and our family. The outdoor area ensures that our active little guy gets his energy out in an amazing, natural environment.


He loves all of the extras the nursery offers as well, including Spanish!


Thank you to all of the girls for their hard work and dedication to the job!

My son thoroughly enjoys his days at nursery. He started when he was 1 and is now 2.5. We have experience of the baby room and the toddler room and can say that in both rooms staff plan age-appropriate and fun activities for them. The children also get lots of outdoor time and there are external companies
that come in and offer additional classes.


The owner of the nursery is very personable and friendly. You can tell she is completely dedicated to making the children, parents and staff happy, and wants to provide the best service possible. Communication is also good about various initiatives that parents are entitled to like tax-free childcare and 30 hours etc. Food is high quality and made on site, and the setting is beautiful and quite hidden so feels a safe environment. Very happy with all aspects of this setting!

Banana Moon at Hatton has been an incredible place for my kids, both my eldest who is now 6 and my youngest who is now 3.


We moved from London 3 years ago and we were worried about the transition for my eldest but the care and attention he received at the nursery really truly brought him out of

his shell and he loved it so much he didn’t want to come home!


Our daughter now attends and loves everything about the nursery. Because we have known the staff there for 3 years we know that she has been and will continue to get the fabulous care and focus to get her ready for reception and school.

Banana Moon Hatton is set in a rural location with outstanding space for the children. They go outside to the paddock in all weather and fulfil plenty of activities, games and learning including Forest school which my little boy loves. The staff all take an interest in the children and the atmosphere
is warm and inviting. The rooms are divided well and give children of all ages a great space to play - they are bright, light and colourful. The children are well cared for and are able to get involved in languages, cooking, crafts and much more.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.674)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.674) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick) 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 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 4.856 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick) is calculated as follows: ( (190 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.856

  • 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 4.818 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick) is based on 18 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 110 number of registered child places is 22. 18 Positive Reviews ÷ 22 = 0.818

  • 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.
