This nursery is great. Staff really care about your child and inspire them in wide ranging topics. No wonder it's outstanding vs all the 'good' nurseries we visited nearby. Never mind the outdoor climbing area, the secret garden and the chickens. Always able to speak to management or staff. Most recently
we've heard about caterpillars turning into butterflies.

Our daughter has attended The Orange Tree Day Nursery since she was 10 months old and is now 3. She has an amazing relationship with her key worker as well as everyone else who delivers direct care to her. Her learning is beyond expectation - she even has Spanish lessons! The Orange Tree teach the
children to be independent insofar as getting themselves ready for outdoor play, baking, creating and showing empathy with peers. Staff are always so welcoming and know the parents by name and remember key pieces of information, which is just amazing. Our daughter always looks forward to going to nursery and so do we - we are 100% confident that we selected the best nursery.

My granddaughter has attended this nursery for around 9 months. It was a tough decision for my daughter having to go back to work full time and leave her precious little one with complete strangers. However, I can say that the staff team now feel part of the family! Their communication is fantastic
and they work so hard to help with developmental milestones. The activities are exciting and inviting, I’ve even wanted to stay and explore them! The nursery has such a homely feel to it which is why my daughter chose this one and I can safely say that they have exceeded any expectations that we had. They are safe and secure, which is something that we needed when leaving the little one. Even though I am not her parents, I get welcomed with open arms and invited to lots of outside activities such as stay and plays and garden parties. We cannot recommend this nursery enough!

My granddaughter has been going to The Orange Tree Day Nursery for over a year since she was 11 months old. I pick her up most days and she's so happy, she truly loves the nursery and has grown so much and so has her confidence.
The staff have all been lovely, friendly and helpful, nothing is too
much trouble. They always work with you and take the time to discuss anything with you and put you at ease. As soon as we mentioned potty training we agreed to work together on this as well.
From my experience I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone and have. The whole team do an amazing job.

My daughter started at The Orange Tree Day Nursery last May. She was born premature and it was a huge step for me to put her into nursery. However, I had no need to worry at all. The staff put us at ease on our very first look round, showing an excellent knowledge of how this could affect her reaching
her milestones. She has absolutely thrived since attending the nursery and is excelling. She loves attending and very often doesn't want to leave to come home! The staff are friendly, welcoming and very knowledgeable about each child individually. Communication is great and is given both face to face on collection, and via the app. I would definitely be recommending The Orange Tree to anyone looking for a day nursery.

My child has been attending the nursery for a few years now and they love it! The staff are always very welcoming, helpful and supportive if you do have any questions. The EY Log app helps with communication between home and nursery. Our child is keen to go to nursery and settles well into any routine
changes. We are very happy with their development and progress and we are kept up to date with our child’s next steps and targets.

My son has been attending The Orange Tree Day Nursery for almost 1 year now and I couldn’t be happier. From providing extra settling in sessions at the start to putting on a Mother’s Day afternoon tea the staff always go above and beyond what’s expected. Communication is excellent and the staff provide
updates both on the app and upon collection about your child’s day. The photos on the app are an added bonus too! All staff members are warm, welcoming and friendly and say hello whenever you see them. The facilities at the nursery are brilliant and include a sensory room and a play gym. I also love that it’s an all weather nursery so the children get to play outside come rain or shine. Overall I’m very happy that I chose this nursery and can see just how happy my son is being there. Thank you!

My daughter loves it at The Orange Tree, she’s thrived being there and it’s massively helped her development and all the staff are so lovely.
I was so nervous when she first started but they got her settled super quickly.
I couldn’t ask for more from a nursery.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.993)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.993) out of 10 for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Hucknall 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 67 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 67 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 4.993 for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Hucknall is calculated as follows: ( (795 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 800 Ratings = 4.993

  • 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 The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Hucknall is based on 67 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 160 number of registered child places is 32, which has been reached with 67 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.
