La Maternelle Sandbach opened in March 2016 and is a high-quality day nursery and pre-school for children aged from birth to four-years-old. The nursery is situated in the ‘Newark’ building on Middlewich Road.

It has been renovated and refurbished to a high-standard to provide modern, stimulating and safe nursery and pre-school provision.

The nursery was awarded 'Oustanding' in all areas of care and education by Ofsted, during their inspection in January 2019.

The setting is family run and has a close-knit team of Early Years Teachers and Practitioners.

Whilst the nursery has a clear emphasis on educational learning through play, most of all the team want the children to be happy and have fun as they embark on their learning journeys. Each child is treated as unique and staff centre the learning around their individual interests and stages of development.

One of the nursery’s attributes is a strong family ethos, as the name La Maternelle derives from the French meaning ‘a homely place’. The nursery cares passionately about each child’s future and staff will develop positive partnerships with parents and carers.

I am so happy that I decided to send my daughter to this nursery. It's such a nice and fresh setting and all of the staff are lovely.
My daughter is only 11 months old and she is very happy. She gets excited when I drop her off in the morning and is happy and content when I collect her late afternoon.

I was really nervous sending my daughter to nursery. I had never left her with anybody before, but as soon as I went to La Maternelle I was made to feel at ease.
The setting is lovely, loads for the kids to do. The staff are amazing, very caring and attentive to both parent and child. The get healthy
meals and snacks and are always kept in a clean nappy and clothes.
Since my daughter has attended she has come on so much and really enjoys her time there. So glad I found La Maternelle, I thought I would be able to pick flaws in it but I definitely can't.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.141)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.141) out of 10 for La Maternelle Sandbach 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 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 4.875 for La Maternelle Sandbach Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (21 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.875

  • 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 3.266 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for La Maternelle Sandbach Day Nursery is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 71 number of registered child places is 14.2. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.141

  • 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.
