Our son used to have a hit and miss relationship with his old nursery, but since he joined Warlingham Day Nursery he has begun to love it. We used to have to frequently fight a battle to get him dressed, out the door and then into nursery, but now he sees it as a great day out which he looks forward
to. Once we get him to the nursery front door, he is off inside without looking back or saying goodbye! The team are fabulous and treat our son as an individual, whilst his last place seemed to treat him like a number, and you can tell they care for him. They have a dedicated chef and we have noticed an improvement in the food our son likes to eat. The nativity play put on at Christmas this year showed how much thought and effort they put into their care, and their relationships with all the kids. Switching our son to Warlingham Day Nursery in 2024 was possibly the best decision we made all year - thank you WDN team and keep up the amazing work!

My son has been attending Warlingham Day Nursery since January 2024.
We are over the moon with the care that he has received. The team are amazing and patient with him. He has developed so much in such a short space of time, with both his listening and day-to-day skills.
The manager and the team
have been particularly helpful when it comes to flexibility and I would like to thank them for that.
Our son looks forward to spending another year at the nursery before he starts school and we will then look to put our newborn into the care of the team when I return to work.

Our son has been going to Warlingham Day Nursery for 10 months now and he's doing so well. He was a little delayed in his speech but it is improving so much and he's learnt many nursery rhymes which he loves singing at home! He attends two days a week but the Manager and the staff are very flexible
and have been able to accommodate extra days when needed, which has been much appreciated!


All the staff are loving and nurturing and you can see how much they care for the children. I'm given an update on his day at pick-up time and we get weekly newsletters which are lovely to read and see what they have been up to as a whole.

My son loves it here. My son wasn’t verbal when he started this nursery in November 2022, his speech has improved from 0 to 100. He has a route now. This is thanks to the nursery and all the nursery staff. They were so supportive on our journey to getting my son to his rightful potential. He knows his
numbers/colours/letters. The consistency and flexibility with him in this nursery were the best that ever happened to my family and me. Thank you so much Warlingham Day Nursery and a big thank you to a particular member of staff for creating time and different methods to improve our lives. I need to stop typing because I can go on and on about this nursery nonstop.

I was so lucky to land upon the Manager and the team at Warlingham Day Nursery, both my little ones have been there since they were 6 months old, now nearly 4, and I’ve never once worried about them being there or had doubts, the whole team is amazing, and they all make every child feel like they are
the staffs favourites, I can’t emphasise enough how amazing everyone there is, communication is amazing and updates/photos and helping children progress through feeding to potty training, honestly can’t fault this nursery I’ll be so sad for the kids to leave when they start school!

Both my son and daughter attend Warlingham Day Nursery. My daughter attends the preschool on a full-time basis, she started in January of this year and to see the progression in her since then is quite truly spectacular. My 6-year-old son attends the Oasis school club, as working parents the fact I
can leave my son in the care of all the amazing staff and know he will safely be taken to and collected from school is beyond helpful, we are so privileged to have this kind of care on our doorstep.


My son has additional medical needs and under no circumstances is this ever too much for them to handle. They put me at ease and are always willing to learn or train to ensure his needs are met to the best of the staff's ability. All of the staff are caring, they really are a home-from-home environment which is everything I could ever want for my children. I could never thank you enough and I know when my children are grown, they will always have such happy memories of their time with you all.

My son loves it here! He has learnt so much and his social skills are amazing. The girls are always so welcoming and lovely and create a really friendly loving environment. I never have any trouble dropping my boy off as the girls are always there to greet him. They update me on his day on the app and
when I pick him up. Also, we have weekly newsletters letting us know what they have been learning. It's so lovely to see all the kids laughing and playing and my son brings that good mood home with him. Thanks, girls for everything.

We are so lucky and thankful to have Warlingham Day Nursery and all the carers in our lives. Our first child went to the setting before whilst it was a childminder and now both our children, pre-schooler and baby go to the nursery. Our children are always happy when dropped off and collected. As working
parents, this is so reassuring knowing that our children are happy, safe and thriving in an environment that is rich in stimulation. All the carers are so welcoming and caring and take the time to know the children really well and cater for their needs/personalities. My child talks about nursery, and what he has done and also talks about his friends and the carers that help him. The nursery have had special events like the nativity, sports days and graduation and it’s great to see the children interact with their friends and for the parents to be proud of our children growing into little confident people. Thank you to all the team!

Our three-year-old started not long after turning two, since then he has come on in leaps and bounds, his speech has improved tremendously and his confidence has grown. The nursery staff are caring and friendly, and the atmosphere and environment at the nursery is always happy. The nursery has adapted
very well to our son's dietary needs which puts our minds at ease. The nursery have a wide variety our meals throughout the week, which my son always seems to love. We are very grateful to all the nursery staff for all the time and effort they have put into teaching/caring for our son. The nursery should be proud of how much they’ve come along in the last year! Great value for money, and a safe and fun environment for children to be in. I would definitely recommend it to any parent or carer.

Our daughter had been with family until age 2.5 so we were very nervous accessing a childcare setting. However, we did not need to be, the staff at Warlingham Day Nursery have been welcoming, nurturing and extremely helpful. Our daughter loves attending and accessing the daily activities which are supplemented
by further enrichment from external providers. She has a 3 healthy, freshly prepared meals each day too. We can't thank the staff enough for helping her settle over the last year and helping prepare her for school next year.

I was so nervous to put my little boy into nursery at just 11 months old especially because he was very clingy to me but I found the staff so reassuring and so lovely, I could tell straight away he was in good hands and I instantly trusted every single member of staff.


He has now been at nursery

for 9 months and he is thriving! He’s so happy there and it has helped me so much with his routine, especially his sleeping! It’s a piece of mind that all his meals are catered for and nappies are provided, you really couldn’t ask for more. Having my boy at this particular nursery has helped me in so many ways and I am so grateful to all the staff. I always know when I drop him off he is in safe hands. It’s also a bonus that my daughter (who is older) can attend when needed in half terms so I can continue to work. I would 100% recommend Warlingham Day Nursery!

The team at Warlingham Day Nursery have always been warm, welcoming and nurturing towards both my sons. It’s great that they have designated rooms for toddlers and pre-schoolers, allowing age-appropriate play depending on what stage your child is at. My youngest in particular has learnt a lot in a stimulating
environment, which has helped him to be school-ready. And the fact they have their own on-site chef is the cherry on the top. Good nutritious meals every lunch and dinner time means it’s one less thing for me as a parent to worry about. Thank you Warlingham Day Nursery.

We have been with Warlingham Day Nursery since it was back at the owner's house as a child-minding setting. My girls have both been there since they turned 1 (January 2020 and September 2021). They have both learnt so much including songs, numbers, letters, and writing and their confidence has grown
significantly. We are always impressed with their learning and they enjoy doing it because it is done in a fun way.


They always talk positively about everyone and everything they do. The facilities are great with brilliant outdoor space and aways doing new activities. The food is great and nutritional. They always have fruit and enjoy their food.
Would recommend.

My 2 boys have been attending Warlingham Nursery ever since they were babies, right up to when they started school and I could not recommend it enough! The staff are very friendly and attentive to the children's needs, and it’s a fun, positive learning atmosphere. There are always lots of different
activities for the children to be involved with and a nice focus on outdoor learning too! 5*****

My daughter has attended this nursery since opening and I am extremely happy with the caring and nurturing nature of the staff. The manager is a fantastic manager, she has an open line of communication and also the use of the app where I am notified of meals, daily activities and feedback!
Meals are
cooked fresh daily and my daughter loves the food!
Thank you for everything, you care for the children as if they are your own. I am so pleased with this childcare provider, which promotes healthy eating and educational entertainment for kids of all ages.

A very caring, supportive nursery, with lovely staff. Great flexibility with days and hours required to suit our family's needs. The baby room is very bright and spacious, yet cosy, with lots of toys to keep my little one entertained and the preschool room is full of fun and educational activities for
my three-year-old. I particularly appreciate the one-on-one educational support that they receive to ensure they are school-ready. Home-cooked meals, so I know that they are eating a good diet whilst there. There is an app so I can check what the menu is for the week and I can check how long my baby has napped for and at what times. They do sports and football coaching on a Tuesday morning with some of the pre-school children (additional activity to pay for) but my son loves it and gives them another element to enjoy whilst they are there.
Overall would highly recommend it! The manager and the team really do go above and beyond to ensure our children are happy and well looked after.

I cannot recommend this nursery enough. My daughter loves it here. She has learnt so much and there is so much for them to do. We have an app to tell us what the children have eaten and get a weekly newsletter with updates and what they have done. We have one favourite teacher in particular.

Warlingham Day Nursery is a fantastic setting for my children. They have wrap-around care for school children as well as a baby room and preschool. I have been here since it opened in September 2022 and I was with the owner at her previous property. I have a child in the preschool room and wrap-around
room. It is fantastic and so welcoming for children and parents. All the staff are happy, nurturing, approachable and hard working. The nursery is so accommodating to everyone's circumstances and are flexible with hours, days etc. The preschool children had a fabulous sports day and graduation today. The owners' generosity and care for the kids were evident as always. Snacks and meals are homemade on site and I couldn't ask for better. The range of events, theme days, weekly newsletter and daily activities, experiences and learning opportunities are brilliant. The fact they do school runs too is a bonus for working parents that can't drop off. I highly recommend Warlingham Day Nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.947)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.947) out of 10 for Warlingham Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.947 for Warlingham Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 228 Ratings = 4.947

  • 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 Warlingham Day Nursery is based on 19 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 19 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.
