Cannot rate this nursery high enough. They have great resources and keep my little one occupied all day, which is no easy job! The staff are brilliant, always keeping us updated with both the app and end-of-day reports. Great safety measures in place and a very nurturing nursery. I can see the development
and progress that my little one has already made in the short time from starting in September. I am very grateful for the care and attention they provide and makes the entire process of going back to work a lot easier.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (South Hornchurch)

Thank you for the highest of reviews! It is great to hear about your experience at Fledgelings. Engaging activities and resources are carefully created to meet the children's interests by the staff team from sensory activities to garden play. The children are having too much fun to realise they are learning new skills along the way! Regular updates through the app and end-of-day reports are so important to parents and adding photos gives it that personal touch too.
It's great to know that you feel confident in the care and attention your child receives, making your return to work much easier.

Best nursery in Rainham! Polite and professional staff with correct measures in place to keep children safe. Loving approach towards children with plenty of well-thought-out activities and toys. More like a family rather than a school setting.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (South Hornchurch)

It's wonderful to hear about your positive experience with the nursery in Rainham. The staff are polite and professional, with a strong focus on children's safety, giving peace of mind to parents.
Feeling like a family rather than a formal school setting is especially lovely to hear, as this is something Fledglings feels strongly about. A warm and familiar atmosphere will contribute to a child's sense of security and happiness, fostering a positive learning environment for them.
Thank you for taking the time to review our wonderful nursery in Rainham.

The staff has been incredibly welcoming, creating a warm and nurturing environment for the children. They have a remarkable way of connecting with the kids and building strong bonds with them, which is evident in how much my son loves being there.
I am impressed with how informative and friendly the
staff is, always keeping me updated on my son's progress and activities. Under their care, he has made significant progress in every aspect of his development, and I am grateful for the attention they've given him. It's bittersweet knowing that he'll soon be leaving. However, I can't help but feel reassured that they have prepared him exceptionally well for the next step in his transition to primary school. Thank you to the wonderful team at the nursery for making my son's time here truly special. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent seeking a loving and enriching environment for their child's early education!

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (South Hornchurch)

It is wonderful to read about the positive and enriching experience your son has had at our nursery. The warm and nurturing environment, with the staff's ability to connect with the children and build strong bonds, has clearly made a significant impact on your son's development and happiness.
The fact that you've been kept well-informed about your son's progress and activities reflects the nursery's commitment to open communication with parents. It's wonderful to hear that, under their care, your son has made such good progress in all aspects of his development.
It's good to know that he has been exceptionally well prepared for the next step of his journey to primary school.
Your recommendation of the nursery as a loving and enriching environment for early education carries a lot of weight and will undoubtedly be helpful for other parents seeking a nurturing and supportive place for their child's learning and development.

Amazing nursery! Constantly clean and well maintained. Staff are knowledgeable in early years and childcare. My son loved attending nursery and enjoyed it each and every day. Staff feedback was always clear and concise. Staff work hard and children are well looked after. If you are after halal food
then this setting offers that. I would highly recommend a visit to this nursery.

We joined The Fledgelings Day Nursery last year.
Our daughter has come a long way with her learning and behaviour. The staff are always happy and friendly and let parents know of all the exciting things going on, plus all the important development of my child. She will be sad to leave, but my youngest
son will be joining them.

Amazing nursery, have so much to give to the children. Wonderful setting, continue to bring new things in for the children to learn and our son’s development has gone so far with their help. They’re always introducing new learning like sign language. There’s also a wide range of different food and flavours
for them to enjoy which is amazing.

My child (1-year-old) was really happy at this nursery, and it helped improve her learning and development well. The staff are really kind and always happy to answer questions. The communications through the use of the app are second to none. I really recommend Fledgelings as a nursery.

My son absolutely loves this nursery! He has recently been diagnosed as Type 1 Diabetic and has been absent for almost a month due to this. He had his first day back today and he settled in so well, all thanks to the nursery staff! The manager, his key worker and the chef could not be anymore accommodating
in meeting my childs every need possible - and there is alot with Diabetes! All areas of each room meet the Early Years Foundation Stage required areas. Very friendly and supporttive staff that take each childs individual needs into account. The nursery is very clean. The staff take safeguarding extremely seriously and have copies of this based around the nursery to keep staff and parents up to date and safe.
So pleased my son is here!

We have a 21-month-old currently at Fledgelings and he loves it! He is so happy there, the staff are fantastic and so passionate and enthusiastic about their work. The nursery is very new, so the refurb has the highest quality with plenty of outside space which they regularly use. The food choices are
brilliant and cater to varied requirements. I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

We as parents are really pleased with the nursery. Our son has settled in well and is happy here. We like that the staff are caring, knowledgeable and friendly and each member in the room can tell me about his day including the manager. The handover in the morning and the end of the day is great and
it is nice that parents are welcome inside the room to speak to staff. The outdoor area is developing but has lots for the children to do. Our son loves being outdoors so it would be great to see some more things outside. We love the app as we get to see great observations and are kept up to date with events at the nursery. It would also be great to see more activities such as library or park visits or workshops for children on rotation of days so all children are able to experience this. Overall the nursery is great and we would recommend it.

My child was happy in the nursery once settled. He was socialising more and seemed happy. The staff are helpful and meets the need of the child. Facilities are good including an outdoor play area. The online app which they use for child updates is very good and they record everything.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.779)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.779) out of 10 for Fledgelings Day Nursery (South Hornchurch) 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.779 for Fledgelings Day Nursery (South Hornchurch) is calculated as follows: ( (280 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 321 Ratings = 4.779

  • 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 Fledgelings Day Nursery (South Hornchurch) is based on 26 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 26 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.
