Eight months ago our son started in Nära and we can honestly said we can't find any problems at all. The staff have always been amazing and very nice to the kids. Our son loves to go there, loves the food they cooked and enjoy a lot in the playground. Everything is in a very good condition and clean.
For a first experience nursery our child and ourselves are very happy.

My son has been attending Nära Charlbury since December 2024, and our experience has been exceptional. The staff's dedication to caring for and nurturing each child is apparent in their warm greetings and personalised attention. They know each child and parent by name and are well-acquainted with the
children's individual needs and preferences. We receive regular contact throughout the day regarding our child's activities and well-being, and we also receive observations and feedback as he progresses into new milestones. As my son started nursery on the earlier side, the staff have been very supportive as we navigated feeding him solids, weaning and improving his sleep routine. The nursery also provides nutritious meals and engages the children in creative activities, both indoors and outdoors, fostering a safe and stimulating environment for exploration. Seeing our son thrive and feel so at home at Nära is everything to us, and we are very happy with our choice.

Nara Charlbury has been a breath of fresh air for our family. My four-month-old started in February, and from day one, the warmth and care from the staff were incredible. Amelia was so understanding when I wasn't ready in January, offering support without pressure. The entire team is kind, attentive,
and truly knows every child and their family. The nursery is spotless, constantly cleaned beyond expectations. A particular staff member is so sweet, and the chef is amazing-she accommodates my daughter's allergies perfectly. Two particular staff members are truly meant for this work, creating a nurturing space. I highly recommend Nara Charlbury for exceptional childcare! Well done to every single one of the staff members from the toddler room to the the person who cleans. I would highly recommend you send your child here. They will be loved and cherished.

Lovely nursery, all staff are well trained and very compassionate. All areas of the nursery are busy with activities which are rotated which is amazing. Child always comes home happy and as a parent I am always updated through the app.

We joined today to the messy play which was really fun for the children. They had a lot of fun. Very creative activities. Good for the parents to meet other parents too. We look forward to the next meeting.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.955)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.955) out of 10 for Nära Charlbury is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 5 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 5.000 for Nära Charlbury is calculated as follows: ( (60 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.955 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Nära Charlbury is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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 55 number of registered child places is 11. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 11 = 0.455

  • 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.
