Absolutely amazing nursery. We are so happy that we moved here. From September we have been so impressed with how well our little boy has come on and the amount he does in nursery and the amount they take the kids out to local parks, shops, libraries etc. it's just what we wanted for him. The amount
of effort the staff and owners put into the nursery can really be seen in just how lovely the place is and it really was a standout building during Christmas with outdoor decorations. In my honest opinion from being at 3 different now. Both other nurseries were great (except one for the last one which we were at for 4 years!) This, hands down, has blown us away and really feels to be worth every penny since nurseries ain't cheap! I would say, if you are looking for a nursery you really need to look into this one, and get in quick as I reckon this nursery will be a hard one to get into once the word is out there.

My son started at Embrace Kindergarten when it opened in September. My older son went to the sister nursery, West Park, but Embrace Kindergarten had the availability for the days I wanted. He settled in straight away and I'm so happy with his progress, he's come on leaps and bounds since he started
in the toddler room. The staff are amazing and I feel comfortable leaving him, the nursery itself is so lovely, really big and bright.

Lovely staff and have helped my child settle in so quickly after struggling at a previous nursery. Constantly getting updates on what your child has been up to in the day. Can't thank the nursery enough for everything they have done in such a short space of time! Highly recommend as a nursery.

We moved our son to Embrace on its opening day in September, having heard fantastic reviews about the Kindergarten Group (West Park and Chelsea). Attending the open day confirmed it was the right choice, and it's been the best decision for our son. Embrace is truly amazing-staff are incredibly friendly,
caring, and passionate about what they do. We receive daily updates, and our son now enjoys trips outside the nursery, something he missed in his previous setting. He comes home every day excitedly talking about his activities, new friends, and his aunties. His development has been remarkable since joining, and he's so happy that getting him to leave at the end of the day is a challenge. Knowing he's in such a loving and nurturing environment brings us so much comfort. We highly recommend Embrace to anyone-you won't be disappointed!

From first looking round the nursery with my granddaughter to her starting at Embrace Kindergarten this week. The staff have been so very kind and friendly. Thank you all. They are just so welcoming and friendly. My granddaughter loved her time there and we received updates throughout the day. She settled
in there no problem at all.

Amazing nursery, the transition from his old nursery to this one has been incredible he went from being so upset in his old nursery to running into Embrace lodge, all the staff make him feel so comfortable and put me at ease that he's in good hands while he's there. He loves his new nursery and the
staff are amazing with him, constantly teaching him new things and supporting with things we're trying to work at home with him. My son is so settled there and that's all thanks to the lovely staff. Very happy we moved him.

My daughter currently attends here after being pulled from a different setting due to an injury. We were incredibly anxious about our baby going anywhere else and the girls have been amazing from the get-go. From looking around to starting-play visits and to starting nothing has ever been too much.
And the communication is just bang on. We love the fact she wears a uniform and is always cleaned before coming home. The app is updated regularly which puts you at ease. The kids and staff are nonstop! Play barn visits, library, parks, Jo jingles, and baking. Honestly could not be happier with everything!!

I moved my son here in September, this was following concerns at another placement. The team have been nothing but helpful and reassuring. My child has settled in so well and already made lots of new friends in such a short amount of time. Parents are regularly updated on the app, it's lovely to see
all the different activities they do, both in and off site. The difference and confidence my son has is amazing to see, he now really enjoys going to "school" as he calls it. As a parent there's nothing better than knowing your child is being looked after and enjoying themselves whilst you're at work!

My daughter currently attends Embrace Kindergarten. She has attended since the Kindergarten opened and really enjoys her time there. They always go on little outings in the community in these little bus buggies which she loves! The staff are lovely and very helpful. The app keeps me up to date with
all of my daughter's activities throughout the day. I would recommend Embrace to anyone looking for nursery care in the local area.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.968)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.968) out of 10 for Embrace Lodge Kindergarten 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 Embrace Lodge Kindergarten is calculated as follows: ( (144 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 144 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 4.968 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Embrace Lodge Kindergarten is based on 12 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.4 = 0.968

  • 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.
