My daughter has been going to Vineyard Organic Day Nursery for a year and half and is very happy there. Since she started there's been a change of management and since then I can see they've really stepped it up. There's a real emphasis on making the environment best for the children and there's clearly
a lot of thought that goes into it. Seeing what my daughter has got up to at nursery on the app is wonderful to see and it's been great to see her development over time. She enjoys an array of activities from regular baking, gardening, singing with a singing teacher/musician, Playball, even making slime. Whilst the outdoor space is undeniably limited they make it work hard, plus with outdoor trips they do get to stretch their legs... they even went to visit the horses! I would honestly not hesitate to recommend this nursery and will actually be a little sad when it's time for my daughter to leave! The teachers are all incredibly kind and make so much effort. This nursery is a real gem!

My son was going to this nursery since he was a baby.
Just before he went to school last September, he still could experience the positive changes brought by the new manager.
Between those, until now he sometimes reminds himself that he was cooking and baking a lot, various kinds of bread and other
things.
He, talking about it till now, made me come here to leave a review.
There were also the new toys and equipment, and also they started the sport and music lessons, then forest school lessons, where he was exploring how to grow plants from seeds, learning about nature, and creating things using natural resources.
They do French with children.
We could see all our son's nursery activities through the photos on the nursery online portal, which was cute and great, and also the nursery let the parents come back inside the nursery during drop-offs and pick-ups.
The kitchen menu was enriched, and they had loads of various fruits daily, also yoghurt very often.

My son has been at the nursery for almost a year and he started when he was 8 months old. The headteacher and staff are very kind, professional and really care about every child in the nursery. They foster creativity and independence and since my son has started nursery he has developed really well!
He really loves going there every day and I cannot recommend this nursery enough!

Our daughter has been attending the nursery for nearly a year, and we highly recommend it to other parents. She has demonstrated great progress, and it is evident that she enjoys her time there. We appreciate the regular updates on her daily activities, such as French lessons, music, painting, and baking.
The teachers are dedicated and passionate about their work, providing exceptional care for our child. We have spoken with other parents in the neighbourhood, and they share our positive sentiments. The Head Teacher has demonstrated exceptional leadership and a genuine commitment to children's development and growth. We can't thank everyone enough for taking such outstanding care of our daughter.

We are sad to be leaving The Vineyard Organic Day Nursery, as our daughter is going into reception, and she has been so happy at the nursery. She has made wonderful friends, she has loved her helpers, she has blossomed there, and we have been delighted. Our heartfelt thanks to the team for their love,
care, patience, and teaching. The learning environment, plus the variety of what they have offered has been amazing. We will miss them.

Both of our kids have gone to this nursery for the past 6 years. The teachers have been amazing and so welcoming from day 1. The nursery has always been great but with new management it became exceptional. The range of activities have kept our little ones entertained but also continuously learning new
things and concepts. The languages, singing, art activities, visits outside nursery and discussions around events happening around us that are current and relevant have been fantastic and stimulating. I could always depend on the teachers at this nursery to be kind, inclusive and instil a sense of confidence in our kids. App updates (where a parent can see and watch the activities the kids are doing during the week) always brought a smile to our face and allowed us to see our kids in action. Can't rate this nursery high enough.

Great nursery, caring, kind teachers and lots of fun activities for the kids.
My child joined the nursery age 1 and has attended now for 2 years.
From day 1 she has enjoyed going to nursery and she has a really strong bond with some of the teachers.
The teachers clearly put so much love and effort
into caring for the children and in their development.
The facilities are great. The outside space is small (given its central Richmond) but the kids still have lots of fun out there.

We are incredibly grateful for the exceptional care and education our twins receive at this nursery. From the moment we enrolled them, we have seen remarkable improvements in their social skills, creativity, and overall happiness. The teachers are not only highly qualified and experienced, but they
are also incredibly nurturing and attentive to each child's individual needs.
Overall, we couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery. Our twins are thriving, and we highly recommend this wonderful institution to any parent looking for a caring and enriching environment for their children.

We have had our child there in both baby and now preschool room and she loves it, is happy and we as parents can see the effort being made to help them grow and learn.
The nursery has many activities throughout the day, and I'm proudly shown the results of the day's drawing at pick-up. The baking
is usually a prized snack on the way back.
There are external providers who come in and do lessons/play sessions, which adds good value to what's going on e.g. there have been dentists, firefighters and so on, while parents are encouraged to attend book day readings. The performances twice or three times a year are super cute and have been really positive in terms of building confidence and helping them regulate emotions.
One drawback is the limited outdoor space. Fair play to them - the nursery does the best with what they have, be it for play and gardening. To compensate, they also take the children on visits and walks to local green spaces. That said, it's the obvious downside.

My child has been at this nursery since May 24, and they really love going in every day. I can see how much they are learning and how far they have come in all aspects of education, personal skills and confidence. The staff are very attentive and give great personal feedback at the end of the day!

We chose this nursery for our three children. We've been really happy, and are pleased with the new manager, and the outdoor trips starting up again to make up for the smaller outdoor space. For the space they have though, they make the most of it and children go out in small groups, play on bikes and
grow fruits and vegetables. Each of our children has been happy there and we really like the app which was introduced fairly recently so we can see what our daughter is doing. We also like the introduction of playball and Spanish lessons for the children. There are really loving and caring staff too! We can see how much our daughter is developing there too.

My child has been at the Vineyard Nursery for a year, and is very happy there. I am writing a review now, as there has been a change in management at the nursery, and most reviews I have seen are years old. Hopefully this gives some more up-to-date information for prospective parents. The new Head Teacher
has transformed the nursery's approach - the team working there have low turnover, are happy, and the children adore them. They have structured activities throughout the day, even in the baby room. Often I hear they have been baking, painting, creating with plasticine, themed weeks etc. The nursery has limited outdoor space. The children still go into this for play and gardening - but the nursery now also takes the children out on visits and playtime in local green spaces. All food is cooked in-house with good variety. The nursery shares detailed information on my child's personal development via an app, including photos - as well as daily updates on pick-up.

A cute little nursery, a happy place for children. My son started this nursery one year ago and in the beginning, he was always crying when I dropped him off, now he walks in by himself and he's such a happy boy, he loves everyone here. He is learning rapidly, fascinating me day by day.
The staff are
the best, loving, caring and very supportive.
The outside space is a bit small and I just would love to see more pictures of their day-to-day activities.

My child was in the baby room, now preschool at The Vineyard and my experience in both rooms has been excellent. All staff are kind, polite and willing to help with any issues. The management here is also great. My child loves going to nursery and enjoys telling me about his day. I would highly recommend
this nursery to anyone looking for a place in a baby room or preschool.

Very friendly staff. My son was very happy during his time at the nursery. He built good relationships with his peers and nursery staff.
When he started the nursery he did not speak English and he developed good language skills, is able to express himself in English and enjoyed Spanish as well. Meals
were better than a number of nurseries in the neighbourhood; healthy snacks and healthy meals. Staff was very sensitive regarding less/no sugar and private choices of family diet. A good number of activities every day, lots of singing and dancing.
The only downside is the small garden, despite its size my son enjoyed a lot in that tiny garden. They take kids for walks around the blocks, to Richmond Green and the library.

My child has been with the nursery for 3 years as I wanted to return to work early. We've had a wonderful experience, and key milestones such as joining the nursery, transitioning from nursery to pre-school have been positive thanks to the caring and supportive staff. It's encouraging to see all the
children very happily engaged in many different activities each day, and I love seeing all the artwork and projects pinned up around the room. Despite a small outdoor area, the team are very proactive about getting the children outside as much as possible making local trips to visit the local Green, supermarket and train stations.
I would recommend The Vineyard Organic Day Nursery to all my friends and family who are considering childcare support.

My daughter has always been extremely happy to go to the nursery. All staff are really enthusiastic and excellent with children and in their communication to us as parents. They really care and they make it very special for all children. The progress children make as a result of their efforts and the
activities/programme is impressive. I am very happy and grateful as this is a really nice, inviting and friendly environment.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.784)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.784) out of 10 for The Vineyard Organic Day Nursery 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 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 4.917 for The Vineyard Organic Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.917

  • 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 4.867 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Vineyard Organic Day Nursery is based on 13 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 75 number of registered child places is 15. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 15 = 0.867

  • 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.
