I cannot think of a better place for my grandchildren than Ladybird Montessori. The venue is spacious, every room is purpose-built and bright. The outdoor garden and activities are amazing. All the activities are engaging, geared towards learning and fun. The staff are always welcoming and dedicated.
My grandchildren love going there.

My child has attended Ladybird Montessori Nursery since September 2021.
The staff and management team have been faultless in their approach to providing her care and with us as first time parents.
Staff are open, approachable and knowledgeable.
I cannot recommend this setting enough.

Ladybird Montessori is a fantastic nursery. I am so glad I found it. I have two children there and they both love it so much. Since starting there they have blossomed. They have great relationships with the staff there and always happily go in and come home happy. The staff are fantastic easy to talk
to friendly, approachable, there is very little staff turnover and they build great bonds with the children. I highly recommend!

A fantastic nursery with caring staff who plan fantastic activities for the children. External teachers also visit to provide language and music lessons. Garden space is also fantastic and children spend lots of time outdoors.

Ladybird is an inclusive, supportive and knowledgable nursery. They have been very accommodating and encouraging of my child and their requirements. They have listened to feedback and made changes based on parents' preferences. The management staff are approachable and make themselves available to parents.
The nursery staff are kind, friendly and genuinely care about the children and their progress. I would (and have) recommended them to friends and the general public. They have invested time and money into keeping their outdoor facilities engaging and appropriate for the children. They also host special afternoons for important days where the children take part in activities for example mothers day.

I’m so happy I found this nursery. My daughter has come on so far since attending. The staff are so kind and nurturing. I was really nervous about going back to work in Feb but she is so happy and confident that she now attends full time.
At first this was supposed to be a “stop-gap” until our chosen
childminder had space, but when I saw how well provided for she was and how she spent so long exploring the garden and how loving the nursery workers are, it was the only place I wanted her to be. (I chose to forfeit a substantial deposit with my other space in order for my daughter to stay at Ladybird Montessori.)
It’s such a weight off my mind to always know that she is safe, happy, learning and exploring.
Management is also excellent, and I can’t rate the girls who work in the baby room highly enough. They all work so hard and are models of kindness to my daughter. She is learning to be really kind and independent and sending her to Ladybird Montessori was the best choice I made.

Excellent environment, polite and friendly staff. Great progress with the children, my daughter is very excited to come to nursery every Friday and her development is noticeable, very pleased and happy and looking forward to when she starts fulltime.

Ladybird is a fantastic nursery for all children. Since my son has been here, from May, he has really enjoyed it. The nursery itself is nice and spacious and children are always well taken care of. I love the garden as the nursery teachers are always doing some activity with the children. Children are
well fed and well looked after. They keep on top of everything and it looks like a happy place for children to be. Management is fantastic too. Nursery teachers are amazing.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.844)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.844) out of 10 for Ladybird Montessori - Sutton 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 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 4.844 for Ladybird Montessori - Sutton is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.844

  • 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 Ladybird Montessori - Sutton 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, 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.
