The staff are always friendly, approachable, and enthusiastic. The way they interact with the children is outstanding, taking the time to listen to them and to understand them on an individual basis. When you go to pick your child up from nursery, it's so wonderful to see and hear all the happy faces
and chattering about their day.

My little girl has had the best time at La Maternelle. The staff are amazing and we are always kept up-to-date with her progress with daily pictures and informative handovers.
The nursery setting is lovely and nurturing with lots of exciting activities for the children to access. My little girl particularly
loved the outdoor area!
Thank you for the outstanding care La Maternelle.

Such a fantastic nursery! Having frequented several, I can’t recommend this one enough. The staff are amazing and I really feel they will go above and beyond to enable the children to thrive. The staff have been there many years, it’s a well run, happy and friendly environment. Cannot fault them in
anyway.

Our little girl has been at La Maternelle Family Childcare - Nantwich since February and she absolutely loves going to nursery.
All of the staff are fantastic and do so much with the children throughout the day. Getting the photos to see what they are up to is lovely as well.
It makes us very happy
that she’s so happy!

I literally don't know where to start there are so many positive things I could say about the La Maternelle Family Childcare - Nantwich team. Each member of the team in the preschool room has gone completely above and beyond and has made my son and myself feel like part of the La Maternelle family.
They go out of their way to ensure that the children are happy and settled the feedback they give at pick up is so detailed and makes you realise just how well they know the children and how much they care for them. All the staff have done a fantastic job this year and will be truly missed by my son and our family.
My daughter loves it in the sunshine room and the girls in there are fantastic where two team members have helped her gain so much confidence when she first arrived at the nursery and now she's moved to the waddlers room she is happy to go in every time we arrive. The girls are brilliant with her and they've made her time in the sunshine room a really pleasurable one.

Our little boy first joined La Maternelle in September 2020 and now coming to the end of his time there in pre-school before starting school in September.
It is an absolutely wonderful setting, the staff are so supportive and genuinely care for each individual child.
The experiences and opportunities
the children have is brilliant and my little boy has learnt so much during his time at La Maternelle.
We have a thorough handover each day, and love the app updates and photos throughout the day.
Thank you La Maternelle team, we will miss you.

Amazing facilities and staff. There is consistency in staff so there must be a very low turnover. Parents are always kept informed. The activities the children do are always varied. By far the best nursery in the area!

The only negative I have to say is that I never found this place earlier. Since attending La Maternelle my daughter has come on leaps and bounds. Each week there is a new activity with keys words and cross cuticular. As a parent you are always informed weekly of the next weeks goals and targets as well
as given ideas and tips on how we can transfer the learning at home. Each morning my daughter is greeted with a smile and they always ask how she has been. When I collect her I am given lots of information about what she has been up to as well as receive messages on the app. This fills me with confidence while working as I can also see my child learn and grow so I don’t feel like I’m missing these important milestones. My daughter loves attending as the nursery engage and encourage all interests. Such an amazing nursery. The only negative is I never found you sooner as I can only imagine she would have totally flourished.

As first time parents we were understandably anxious to enrol our daughter into nursery. La Maternelle have been fantastic at every stage and made us feel so comfortable leaving our little one in their care. I have recommended La Maternelle to all my friends and feel we made the best possible choice
for our daughter.

My little girl adores nursery and both her key workers, she hasn't looked back since joining the rainbow room. Her language and speech is really coming along and she looks forward to her time at nursery.
Staff all give detailed descriptions of what she has been up to and answer any questions we have
succinctly and in detail. Not that I try to ask too many as there is no need - her smile says it all!
I can not recommend this nursery enough, from the moment I was shown around to my little girl attending and progressing through the setting it's been fantastic. My daughter has grown in confidence and looks forward to going. Thank You

The nursery is absolutely wonderful. They have provided so much support for my little one who has a speech delay. I love the photos that keep me updated on what he has done that day and also the daily diary has also helped. I have recommended the nursery to my friends and will continue to do so.

My Grandaughter is happy to go to nursery and happy when I collect her. She enjoys the varied activities provided for her to take part in which give her an insight into the world around her and different cultures. The staff are friendly, professional and approachable. They update me on what activities
my Grandaughter has taken part in that day which gives me a chance to chat to her about what she has done and what she enjoyed on the way home.

Our son has been attending La Maternelle for over a year now and not only does he love attending, I have seen his socialisation and development come on incredibly fast. I attribute much of that to the love, support, knowledge and care of the staff at La Maternelle.
The communication we receive, as
parents, from La Maternelle is outstanding and his key workers show huge amounts of love and enthusiasm for his care. We receive regular updates which are informative, reassuring and help us to track how our son is progressing in the nursery setting. It is also such a pleasure to receive photo updates of him playing and interacting with his friends.
There is ample opportunity for sharing sessions, where we can visit to watch him play, explore the wonderful setting and meet his key workers. I have received full support from the nursery in all areas of his care, such as meal planning around his lactose intolerance and potty training.
I couldn't recommend La Maternelle highly enough.

From our initial visit we could see the high quality of the nursery in comparison to others we visited and feel it has exceeded our expectations.


The nursery looks really professional and there is a huge mix of clear and safe areas for the children to explore new things. Although our son isn't in

on the set days there are also a number of classes like music and yoga.


The management team are organised and efficient with the added bonus of their app which helps you keep track of your child's progress, including eating and sleeping. It shows invoices, allows you to send any questions and you even get a few photos.


Our son's key person is lovely and you can clearly see they've formed a bond. Since starting we really feel our son has gained loads of confidence to explore by himself and his communication has improved massively. It is also good to see the staff are regularly reviewed.


Overall, we are really happy with the nursery and would definitely recommend it.

Admittedly, I was nervous about my daughter going to nursery. I had concerns on whether she would be in a safe environment and get the attention needed to develop given friends have had bad experiences with their children (not at La Maternelle). Since day one, the staff could not have made this transition
any easier for us.


They provided reassurances through phone calls (at the start when my daughter was unsettled in the morning), send regular updates/observations through the eyLog app, and give thorough updates whilst dropping off/picking up.


My daughter went from being unsettled at drop-offs, to having the biggest smile and reaching out to hug the staff. This makes me smile knowing that she is excited and happy to be there. This is a testament to the staff at La Maternelle.


I know that they provide first-class care to my daughter, and it is evidenced by her development since she has been at nursery. I can say that she has come on leaps and bounds and continues to learn new skills.

Both of my children have attended La Maternelle over the past 5 years. All of the ladies do a great job, my daughter loves going and often asks to go at the weekend too which highlights the great job they are doing.


The children do lots of varied activities, photos and videos are shared online for

you to see as well as a full diary kept of what they have eaten for the day.


Great nursery, would recommend to anyone

Since our son started at La Maternelle I have nothing but good things to say. From organising visits with management to the first settling and each session since everyone has been amazing. During the first session, I was really listened to and reassured, I have always felt so at ease leaving him at
La Maternelle. Initially, he struggled to settle as he was born during the lockdown and we have had very little interaction with people, but he loves it and claps every time we pull up to the nursery and to see his key worker!


The staff have put some brilliant photos on the app and are lovely to speak with at the end of his day. I love that they know and understand all of his little quirks!


Everyone has been so well organised and the communication has been fantastic through the app. Each session has observations and a daily diary. Thank you to all of the staff that have created amazing activities and care for our son each week he truly loves each visit.

We could not recommend this nursery enough. Since being at nursery, my little boy has come on so much and is developing skills so quickly due to the care and dedication of the staff. All of the staff are welcoming and my son loves his key person, who treats him like her own. Would highly recommend them
and thank them for the care they give.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.789)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.789) out of 10 for La Maternelle Family Childcare - Nantwich 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 15 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 4.983 for La Maternelle Family Childcare - Nantwich is calculated as follows: ( (176 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.983

  • 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 4.806 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for La Maternelle Family Childcare - Nantwich is based on 15 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 93 number of registered child places is 18.6. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.6 = 0.806

  • 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.
