My daughter has gone from strength to strength in the time she has been at the nursery. The teachers give the right balance of love and care alongside academic learning. The extra-curricular activities are fantastic, such as gymnastics, tennis and cooking. Highly recommend.

I’ve had both my kids at Westbury since 2018. The nursery’s structured, intimate setup really suited our values. The staffing unit takes on feedback constructively and follow up well. I’d highly recommend Westbury.

Westbury goes above and beyond expectations. The staff go the extra mile to ensure my child is happy and settled whilst learning. They offer lots of extra curriculum including tennis and ballet. The communication is also fantastic. Very happy with Westbury and would not hesitate to recommend it.

Excellent nursery for children, my child has been very happy here for the last year, with great facilities and extra curriculum activities. The school have catered brilliantly in providing great food for my son who has allergies. Staff are attentive and go the extra mile. It feels very much like a home
from home.

My little boy started in the nursery in January 2019. The nursery manager tired her best to help him settle in fast. My boy started very timid and very unsure about the new environment. All teachers there and the nursery manager have always been encouraging and supportive. Within a few months this little
boy really came out like a flower blossoming. He talks very well and confidently and actively participates in all the nursery activities. He has made a lot of friends quickly. In September 2019 he moved up to Nursery 2 (the Pre-school group) and again I was so impressed with the day to day teaching and caring from the Nursery 2 teacher. The Nursery 2 teacher systematically teaches the children phonics and maths. His progress has been marvellous. Every week there are swimming lesson, Teddy Tennis lesson and Gym lesson. There are also activities such as forest school, local library visit etc. Those really help the children develop well not only academically but also physically!

We were amazed by the development our daughter made within a short period at Westbury House Nursery. It provides a safe and caring environment and the opening times are ideal for working parents. The staff members are very friendly and competent.
The academic standards and extracurricular activities
are good. Nursery children are taught phonics, writing and introduced to mathematics. They also have weekly tennis and swimming lesson. The pre-school also focuses a lot on developing literature skills by exposing the children to a variety of books and stories.
Our daughter has developed into a confident little girl with excellent manners, independent skills and academic standard.

Our experience with Westbury House School has been incredible. We have been so lucky to have had such caring and devoted teachers educating and taking care of our daughter. She started as a scared and shy child and within less than a year, she has become confident and so comfortable with everyone at
school. The level of education is extremely high. The children are so happy and it really feels like a home to us. What a lovely school.

The nursery associated with this school have recently been expanded has matured. The caring ethos of the school has been replicated with the younger ones.
Recently staff changes have been a little concerning but things have settled down and the recent appointments appear to be good.

Fantastic nursery my daughter is very happy and settled. The staff are all very experienced open and warm. The children are very well cared for and individual attention is paid to ensure they progress and learn. A very stimulating and caring environment attached to an equally good school. We are very
happy and so is our daughter.

I am very pleased with Westbury Nursery. They know each child is different and cater for each of their needs. Their early stage development is brilliant. When my daughter finished nursery she was able to read! They really do take great care with the children!

Great school, great teachers. My daughter has grown, matured and developed so much. Very friendly staff, can always speak to staff about any concerns or answer any questions. You feel like you are part of a family. My daughter loves her school and has gained so much confidence from them. Brilliant all

Warm and friendly teachers/staff - very caring and nurturing. They really care and put hard effort into the children's education and well being. My daughter loves all her teachers and her love of learning and curiosity is all due to their hard work and effort. The smaller classes give it a more personal
feel and the children are really able to benefit so much more. Highly recommend them.

Excellent teachers that foster good behaviour and manners while mixing academic and self-led play. Attached to a primary school, so the nursery kids get a great taste of school life and benefit from time with reception kids.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.765)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.765) out of 10 for Westbury House Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.765 for Westbury House Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (98 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.765

  • 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 Westbury House Nursery is based on 10 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 10 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.
