My almost one year old has been attending for a couple of months now is well settled and well looked after. The team are very responsive to any queries I have had and I can tell they really do care about my baby. He is developing so well and is happy there. There is so much to learn and do, and the
space and facilities are enormous. He loves it. They have their own rabbits and chickens. I cant wait for him to make full use out of the amazing, enormous forest school when he is older.

Our son has been attending Each Peach Forest School for over a year now, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. The warm, supportive environment created by the dedicated nursery staff has truly allowed him to flourish. We've watched him not only enjoy a variety of engaging activities but also
grow in confidence, independence, and skill. Each Peach has been the perfect fit for our curious, active boy, and we're confident he'll be well-prepared to start school next year.

Our 3-year-old has been going to Each Peach Forest School for 2 years now and we love this nursery as children can play outside most of the time and teachers are really lovely too. They have a chef who cooks fresh and yummy meals for the children which is great. I would recommend 100%.

Our son has been attending this nursery for just over a year and he loves it the staff are so friendly and you know he is being well looked after he comes home in the evenings tell you about his day playing and spending time with the animals. They were great at keeping to his routine when he was napping
and keeping him awake when he was transitioning to no naps. He's doing amazing with counting and colours and shapes and loves singing songs he's learned there.

My daughter has been going to Each Peach Newhaven for over 2 years and we've always been happy with them. The meals the nursery does are excellent and we feel it's a great environment for children. Wouldn't want to send her anywhere else! All the staff are excellent and my daughter particularly likes
her key worker.

We love Each Peach (and our little one loves it so much he asks to wear his two Each Peach t-shirts every single day which makes it difficult for us when they're in the wash!) The outdoor environment is fantastic, and the animals are a bonus giving the little ones the opportunity to care for animals
and learn responsibility. The staff are amazing and do really care for the kids, as well as always trying to find creative new ideas and projects for them to get stuck into. The food is incredible and always cooked fresh. My son is 3 and has attended here since he was 6 months old. He loves it here!

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 10 months old and I couldn't have asked for a better nursery to help support her during her early developmental stages. Every day she is so excited to attend and comes home singing new songs and telling me about how exciting her day was. Whenever I
have any issues or queries the management team are always so quick to help me with anything. The staff are so incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and have supported me through potty training and how to support her sleep and food habits, I couldn't have asked for more.

My daughter was supposed to attend Each Peach Forest School for 4 weeks during the summer holidays. Not only they charged me a higher fee than listed on their website and stated in their emails to me, my daughter had such a horrible experience, we ended up sending her in only for two weeks. Throughout
the two weeks she attended, she had toilet accidents every single day which didn't happen in months. I then found out it was because she was told to wait when she asked to be taken to the toilet. When I spoke to the teachers, they told me they couldn't allow kids to go alone to the bathroom and they couldn't leave the rest of the class unattended leaving my daughter to have to hold until a teacher was available. My daughter was extremely distressed at pick-ups and would hysterically cry in the mornings to not go in. It has been almost 3 weeks since we stopped sending her, they have stopped replying to my emails and I still haven't got my deposit back. If I could give them zero stars I would.

My son has been attending Each Peach Forrest School for nearly 3 years.
He loves the open spaces and caring for the animals.
The staff are friendly and helpful, updating you on the events each day.
Things have been different since returning after lockdown, but more as a parent than a child.
The
children have been able to enjoy the space and keep their friend groups whilst being safe.
My son appears to enjoy the home-cooked meals and learning about the foods being grown in the garden and then cooked.

Fantastic forest nursery! Kids are outdoors as much as possible (always adequately clothed) and enjoy jumping in puddles, playing with the outside toys, learning about nature and meeting the many animals kept on site.
The recent addition of an in-house specialist chef means kids also learn about “farm
to fork” and have the chance to sit down together to eat meals - a very welcome factor when working parents can’t always manage this during the week.
Each Peach also takes very young babies and always ensure to give the little ones lots of cuddles and attention when they need it - can’t be easy, but all the staff are super professional, and you can tell they just love children.
The kids also do lots of messy and inventive play, as well as artwork and brought home Halloween and Fireworks pictures that we loved.
Excellent covid measures in place.
My son had been attending Each Peach for a year now, and we couldn’t recommend it more highly.

The best nursery by far!
I chose Each Peach as it is very similar to our outdoors lifestyle and Montessori learning and I am so glad I did.
My son loves it here, they are out in all weathers learning through nature. The staff are fantastic and have a great bond with all the children and my son regularly
talks about them when he's not there.
The children are encouraged to get wet, dirty and let their imaginations run wild and they absolutely love it.
It has more outside space than any school let alone nursery so they burn off so much energy here.
We live in the next town with plenty of nurseries round the corner but wouldn't go anywhere else!

Each Peach Forest School is an excellent nursery. I had to change nurseries due to work arrangements and it was such an easy transition. My son adjusted really quickly. Everyone is so sweet and polite. Good job!

My daughter loves it here. She has been attending for the last 11 months. The staff are friendly, there is plenty of outside space for the children to play as well as animals to learn about. Rarely do I have any problems. If I do, they have always been rectified almost immediate. My child comes homes
fed, tired, filthy and happy. In my opinion, I can't send her anywhere better.

The nursery has provided my child with a lot of care and help - they helped me potty train my little one and always include every child in the activities they are doing. My little one doesn't stop going on about nursery (school). Would definitely recommend as they have an amazing outdoor space and plenty
of animals that the children help to take care of.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.570)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.570) out of 10 for Each Peach Forest School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 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 4.432 for Each Peach Forest School is calculated as follows: ( (77 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.432

  • 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 4.138 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Each Peach Forest School is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.438

  • 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.
