We moved to the UK for the short term and decided on letting our 2 toddlers join Grosvenor Day Nursery very quickly. The teachers and staff are so genuine, sincere and loving to the children! They really take time to understand the children's personalities and give them room to grow. The children are
clean, well fed, take part in lots of sensory play, baking, outdoor play whenever the weather allows, and sing, dance, read. The nursery is decorated whenever there is a festival/celebration, Halloween, Christmas. We even had our very own nativity performance this year. Thank you so much for everything! We couldn't be more grateful and recommend Grosvenor Day Nursery highly.

As our child has already started school (yeah, I know), we'd like to express our gratitude to the entire Grosvenor team. Your dedication and patience have not only met but exceeded our expectations. While we've had our share of disagreements, which is natural for concerned parents, what stands out is
your willingness to listen and respond to our feedback.
So thank you:
The staff, a second mother to all the children
The staff member who taught my child her first song
The chef, always cheerful and preparing delicious meals
The staff member adored by the children
The staff member with his calming presence
The talented storyteller
All the baby and preschool room teachers
The manager whose management ensures our children feel at home every day
To these individuals, all the staff we haven't named, and the children who contribute to the vibrant atmosphere - thank you for making Grosvenor such a wonderful place. Your collective efforts have created an environment where our children thrive and feel loved.

We couldn't have asked for a better nursery for our daughter. The team are brilliant and the nursery itself is a lovely, clean and fun place for her to be. She can't wait to go in the morning and is always very happy when we pick her up. She has also developed a lot while she has been there.

All 3 of my boys have been at The Grosvenor. 2 are at school now and always talk about their time at nursery, remembering the adults and the rabbits in the garden. The staff are so lovely and I love the family feel. They are flexible and the handover at the end of the day along with their online learning
journals are brilliant! My youngest is there now and I can hand on heart say I will be so sad when I don’t have a little one there anymore. The team are such an important part of their childhood, creating memories that we’ll share as a family for years to come.

The staff are so supportive and friendly! We use reusable nappies and the staff are happy to do sort these out for us (even though it must be annoying for them). They know our children so well and both our kids love being there and going to nursery. They are the masters of understanding ‘stage not age’
and have been really supportive of our child whilst going through a tough time with being aggressive and having accidents - he is so much better now! Thanks Grosvenor! Legends!

We’ve been sending our little one to The Grosvenor Day Nursery since she was almost 1, and now she’s 3, and honestly, it’s been the best decision we’ve made. The staff here are absolutely amazing. They’ve been so caring and loving towards our daughter from day one. She adores going there every single
morning, and that says it all! Their nurturing environment has helped her grow and learn so much. We couldn’t be happier with the love and support they give to our child. Highly recommend The Grosvenor Day Nursery to any parent looking for a caring, wonderful place for their little ones.

My son has been going to The Grosvenor for over a year now. The staff are amazing, giving me great updates on his day. They always go above and beyond in creating fun new activities as well as a varied and delicious menu! I think that this nursery has definitely helped my son develop wonderful social
skills and manners, as well as a keen interest in reading and counting! Thank you for all you do. Would definitely recommend it.

Absolutely incredible nursery. All staff are really friendly and approachable, and the manager is really welcoming. A very personal approach is taken to the children, and my daughter has excelled in such a small space of time. Lots of different activities are carried out daily, a lovely selection of
food is offered, and the price is extremely reasonable, especially with everything included. I always look forward to hearing about my little girl's day and seeing how excited she is to come to The Grosvenor Day Nursery, and I look forward to seeing how well she continues to do in the next couple of years. Thank you for everything!

Our little one has been going to the Grosvenor now for over 2 years and I can honestly say we couldn’t be happier. From the beginning, they are super flexible for your little one to have as many taster sessions as needed, so they are fully comfortable when they start. The whole team are wonderful, nothing
is too much trouble. They care about each and every kid and they treat them with care and love. My now 3-year-old loves going to nursery, and always leaves with a big smile on her face and won’t stop chatting about her day and her friends! They also have wonderful meals made from scratch which my daughter loves, so I know she at least eats nutritious food twice a week when she refuses my meals! We are now in the process of settling my 4-month-old to start in January and going through all of it again makes me realise how lucky we are to have found the Grosvenor nursery for our daughters! Such a beautiful, friendly, wonderful team! They cannot be praised enough!

We have chosen the Grosvenor for our second child after having such an amazing experience with our first. The Grosvenor as a whole is such a wonderful nursery with amazing staff that goes above and beyond for each individual child. Our daughter is now five years old and still recalls her time at the
Grosvenor as one of her best memories, and it meant there was no doubt in our minds when thinking about a nursery for our second child. The Grosvenor have shown the love and care that we've always wished for in a care setting for our children, and we are so glad that we chose them as our children's nursery.

The Grosvenor team was truly our surrogate daytime family to our children. Professional, kind, aspirational and above all caring - they help children grow and develop into independent, thriving and witty little humans. They see the strengths in each individual and show them how to enjoy each step of
their early years! From role-play to reading and writing, counting, painting and drawing - but also baking, yoga, body workouts and amazing birthday parties. They've been a blessing to our young family! The vegetarian meals ticked the 5-a-day box expanding colours, flavours and textures beyond the dreaded old-fashioned beige meals!

The Grosvenor Day Nursery is like a family to us. Not only taking really good care of our daughter for almost 2 years now, but also the way that they communicate and engage with us as parents is the best. Daily updates on the app with all relevant info and also photos with the activities. You can see
the kids have a great time over there.

We love the Grosvenor Day Nursery and have nothing but praise for the staff. My son has been at the nursery for nearly 3 years and he loves the people there and has made some great friends. When he is listing his best friends to me, the staff are always in there! They have been supportive throughout
the pandemic and are always kind and flexible. It really does have a family feel and lovely people. I would (and do) definitely recommend it.

I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. Our daughter has been going to this nursery for nearly 3 years. She has been really happy, made really good friends and has learned so much. Also, she is bilingual and they have always supported her in any way they could. Our son started two months ago
aged 9 months and he is really happy there too. The staff are really friendly, dedicated and supportive. They are always willing to talk to parents, answer any questions and accommodate any needs. Always trying to improve to provide the best care for children. The best nursery we could ever have asked for and we would miss you deeply!

The nursery and the staff there, are simply amazing. Our son was a bit shy and clingy after spending the best of 18 months in a very minimal exposure environment, due to Covid. I really wasn’t sure how it was going to go. The staff have been super accommodating to his needs and have given him all the
attention he needed to settle in. He is now a confident little boy that loves his time there. The staff have been really amazing and curious. They even tried to learn and refresh their language skills so he wouldn’t feel left out when speaking in any of his three languages. I honestly would have never expected this, but it is so good to see. In terms of inclusiveness, it sets the standard very high!

We have been using the Grosvenor day nursery for 4 years now for both our girls. We couldn't recommend it highly enough! The staff are amazing with the kids and even try to learn different languages to assist bi-lingual children. The nursery is very flexible to modern working patterns and is always
eager to help parents with difficult schedules. Our girls both love it there and have learned so much. It is so lovely to see their characters developing with all the new skills they have developed at the nursery.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for The Grosvenor Day Nursery 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 5.000 for The Grosvenor Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (192 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 5

  • 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 Grosvenor Day Nursery is based on 16 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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2, which has been reached with 16 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.
