The teachers have been an amazing support to the shaping of my child’s educational start point.
They were loved and were always professional.
Can’t thank you all enough, we will definitely miss you all.

I am so pleased to have chosen Yarnton Way Nursery for my son. Since he started at 18 months he has flourished using vocabulary beyond his years, recognising emotions and making friends. The staff and management have been exceptionally supportive and I truly believe that my son couldn't be in better
hands. I look forward to a continued relationship with Yarnton Way Nursery.

2 of my children both went to the nursery from baby room to preschool room and I can honestly say they have both thoroughly enjoyed the nursery and its staff! I love the staff. I have a great friendship with all of them and a very firm relationship with the manager. I will recommend the nursery to all.

I am pleased with the service that the nursery provides. The staff are kind and caring and promote a healthy development.
Staff take time to ensure the feedback I get is detailed at the end of each day.
Although my child is still settling in, he is always happy and safe.
My husband has noticed that
he is more responsive and he is more tired which shows he is being active during the day.

Having provided pre-school for all my children it's a nursery that I will highly recommend to any parent. My eldest is 17 years old and she attended the nursery at age 3. My second born is now 13 years old and he also attended the nursery at age 6 months til school age.


The staff are exceptionally

good and they communicate effectively with respect and understanding.


They feed the children with nutritious food and equip them with the basic knowledge required prior to primary school age, making their transition as smooth as possible. My 3-year-old enjoys waking up and dressing to go to nursery every day.

My child attends Yarnton Way Day Nursery, I’ve not regretted making that decision.
The staff are professional and good to the kids, the facilities are well maintained and management does a good job of interacting with parents.
Well organised establishment.

I am very satisfied with the service that I am been provided with at Yarnton Way Nursery. My son has really improved in his numbers counting, shapes and alphabet. He uses more words now and he has also learnt to do things independently. I am very happy that he is potty trained now and he enjoys coming
to nursery every time. Well done to all of the staff, they are doing a great job.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.846)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.846) out of 10 for Yarnton Way Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.846 for Yarnton Way Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (243 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 286 Ratings = 4.846

  • 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 Yarnton Way Nursery is based on 24 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 84 number of registered child places is 16.8, which has been reached with 24 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.
