Our son has attended from age 1 until school. He has grown froma bay to a confidant by under the care of Cherubins. The staff are wonderful, always happy and cheerful and clearly love the children. Our son loved going there and got very attached to some of the staff members. The activities are many
and varied and help the children develop. In later years they learn lots due to having monthly in-depth topics. His transition to school has been very easy thanks to his development at Cherubins.

Cherubins Day Nursery - Ladywell Lodge is a warm and caring place that my child really loves. The staff really care about children and know how to make the experience of nursing a positive and safe one. It's a lovely place, at the heart of the Ladywell community. Its location is two minutes from Ladywell
station, it's superb and a great place.

They focused on making my son ready and confident for primary school. He has developed extremely well and that is only down to the staff.

My son started in the baby room and has received good quality care. He has come a long way in his development and the staff have also picked up quite quickly that he needed extra support in his speech, therefore, referred him to speech and language. Staff are very helpful and respectful when I have
any queries or questions.

Cherubins Day Nursery - Ladywell Lodge is a good nursery, however, my only concern is the transition of staff - that made my child take longer to adjust. I do like the way they encourage and support parents and children. Overall I'm satisfied with the nursery.

The nursery is fantastic. My child loves coming to nursery every morning. She has learned a lot and is now becoming more independent. We are very happy that she went to Cherubins Day Nursery - Ladywell Lodge.

My experience at Cherubins has been a very positive one. I find that all the staff seem to have great connections with the children. My son loves going there and is visibly excited when we approach the gates, which is always reassuring. They provide varied activities for the babies and days out. My
only identified area of improvement would be to consider more regular updates in the day - perhaps by digital observations! Would be lovely to hear and see more of what the babies get up to all day.

I am very happy with the nursery. My son who is almost 1 year old enjoys lots of different activities. He loves messy play which I cannot do at home. He enjoys the massive space. Importantly all the staff are very professional and provide everything that he needs from feeding to development. They were
also extremely helpful when I needed support of his reassurance.

All I really care about from a nursery is that my son is safe and enjoys going there. I am more than satisfied with both. My son (almost 2) clearly has a great time, gets to do lots of activities (including the messy ones he cant do at home) and clearly has a real bond with the amazing staff. We are
very happy we choose Cherubins Day Nursery.

I have found the nursery to be very nice and welcoming. All the staff are very professional and pleasant to communicate with. My children have always seemed happy and keen to attend which is the main thing. Everything in the nursery seems to be well organised, clean and nicely set up for the children.

We feel the staff are all so great especially our keyworker. Our son settled into the baby room so well and the office staff made the transition so easy for him and us. They are progressing his development and communicate this to us on a daily basis.
If looking for areas of improvement would suggest
more thoroughness on the daily email but understand other nurseries don't have this. Overall we are very happy with our choices of Cherubins Day Nursery and feel our son is too. Would recommend without hesitation.

Reply from Shermin Arkut, Manager at Cherubins Day Nursery - Ladywell Lodge

Thank you for your feedback. We continually look to improving our services and your feedback is a very important part of our improvement. ICT has been one the areas we have been looking at improving and now have ipads in all the rooms as well as computers in our older groups.

We find Cherubins a very good nursery. First child started there almost 3 years ago and younger sibling just recently. Although the staff come and go, management is the same and some staff even return (which is a positive sign). They are all very caring and knowledgeable. We feel safe to leave our children
in their care and know they are learning and protected. The management has also always been accommodating of our needs. The premises are impressive, the garden area is of good quality, the food is nutritious. We feel part of the nursery as we are involved in every part of the way, from menu designing to days out. Monthly newsletters communications make us feel included and on top of subjects and themes being discussed. From discussing with other groups of parents, we feel lucky to have found such a positive setting.

My daughter has been enrolled at Cherubins Day Nursery for the past two years. The support our family has received is comparable to none. The nursery is extremely accommodating with my schedule and always happy to book my daughter in at the last minute. What we love the most about Cherubins are the
friendships we have made with other parents and the wonderful children who attend.

All nursery staff, without exception, gave us a great welcome.
Our key worker has been very patient and friendly with our little one to make him feel safe and happy. Our son has a variety of toys to play with, activities to engage with and other children to observe and play with. The staff are caring
and informative and our son really enjoys his time at the nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.659)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.659) out of 10 for Cherubins Day Nursery - Ladywell Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.659 for Cherubins Day Nursery - Ladywell Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (220 Excellents x 5) + (72 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 308 Ratings = 4.659

  • 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 Cherubins Day Nursery - Ladywell Lodge is based on 26 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 124 number of registered child places is 24.8, which has been reached with 26 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.
