Moving to a new home and new area can be scary for a child, and this is exactly what my child was going through. The staff at Ashbourne MKC made this process a lot easier, giving patience, extra care, and understanding to my child while he settled in. This reassured me greatly as a mother and am very
grateful for their kindness, love, and support towards my child during this time. He comes home happy from nursery every day and often will talk about his teachers at home! I could not thank the team enough for the continued support they give to my son!

Reply from Carly Stimpson, Nursery manager at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Milton Keynes Central

Thank you for your wonderful review! Knowing your son is happy and talks about the staff is truly rewarding. Your peace of mind is our priority. Thank you for your kind words about our team here at Ashbourne Milton Keynes Central!

Ashbourne Oldbrook team have really bought my child's confidence and personality out. Thank you to all the staff for the past few years - you've made the biggest impact in his early years and he will always remember you. You can really tell you care and love your children and the effort and care you
really do put into your work and care for your kids. He's also learnt so much from you guys through learning and the communication has always been great. I definitely will recommend you guys. Thank you for being part of our life.

My baby girl is here at Ashbourne for learning new things first time. They are very professional and know how to teach baby while playing. My baby girl enjoyed a lot as she doesn't want to come back home we can read their mood swings. Highly recommended nursery.

I toured around 7 nurseries in the area and I was unsatisfied; until I visited Ashbourne at Milton Keynes Central. I am very happy with this decision, both my boys love the staff and love going there every morning.
I am at ease knowing they are well cared for and spend quality time with friends and
have creative and fun activities planned for them.
The dedication of the staff and their proactive approach in supporting the children and the parents is amazing, and especially comforting for us as parents to have peace of mind.

One of the best nurseries in Milton Keynes. My little one has been attending since 2021 and the quality of care has been top-notch at all levels. They encourage a lot of reading, try to inculcate good values from different cultures and go the extra mile to ensure parents and kid receives all the care
and communication they need. Special shout out to a staff member from Caterpillars and four staff members from Butterflies, amazing staff! Good luck!

My daughter has been going to Ashbourne for a year now, after removing her from another nursery in Milton Keynes. As soon as we walked into Ashbourne they showed my daughter so much care and attention. They go above and beyond for her and always update us with various pictures and stories of her day!
We love this nursery and would recommend it to anyone!

It is a lovely nursery, with caring staff and I highly recommend it! I joined after a not-so-great experience with another nursery and it was a great choice! My daughter enjoys her time there and learned a lot of new things over the past few months. She is always looking forward to going too and she
is very sad if she has to skip a day. Thank you all so much for looking after her so very well!

My daughter has been going this nursery since she was 9 months old. I was initially quite anxious at the prospect of leaving my daughter in someone else's care for a full day however she settled really well with support from staff. She has built strong relationships with staff and clearly enjoys her
time, she is now 15 months and has flourished at the nursery. The nursery have also supported me as a working mother with flexible childcare hours. I would recommend this nursery highly.

Ashbourne has been amazing for our daughter. The staff are all lovely and great with the kids, my daughter talks highly about all of them. She's formed lovely bonds with the ladies that look after her.
She's excited every morning before going and is beaming when I go to pick her up. She comes home
and tells me about all the great things they did and played with. What more can I ask for.

My little girls' experience for the past couple of months has been amazing! They are happy to go every day, love their teachers, and have fun learning. I absolutely love this place! The staff are all very nice and kind. They do a lot of fun activities for the kids, all while trying to maintain as safe
an environment as they can. I give my highest recommendation for Ashbourne Day Nursery and a special shout-out to 2 members of staff in particular for taking care of my girls!

I really like the school especially how welcoming the manager and staff are, I was nervous going to the school for the first time since it was past the normal school admissions calendar but the manager made me feel so relaxed and my son loves going here. He’s always looking forward to going to school
even on his off days. It’s a shame we can’t be there longer because he’s going to big school in September. We really loved it there.

Absolutely wonderful nursery and team at Milton Keynes Central. My little boy started in September, I was starting a new job and the manager and the team couldn't have been more supportive. My son built relationships quickly with staff and peers and I feel this is due to the setting and environment.
The feedback I receive on how much fun he has had in the day is comforting knowing he's happy and having lots of fun while developing and learning new things.

My little one started in January, the Nursery has been brilliant in accommodating his needs. He has settled very quickly and has made friends since starting nursery. The staff are very professional in all that they do and any queries I have they are quick to rectify. They send regular updates on his
progress with photos, every week you are informed of the topic and pictures of displays they are doing with the children. I can highly recommend this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.290)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.290) out of 10 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Milton Keynes Central 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 8 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 4.990 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Milton Keynes Central is calculated as follows: ( (95 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.99

  • 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 4.3 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Milton Keynes Central is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.5

  • 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.
