We have two of our children at The Riverside Day Nursery and we are so happy with it and the staff. They both look forward to attending nursery, they are learning so much and amaze me, the staff are really friendly and we just love the huge garden they have available to play in, the walks to the ducks
and the staff are really friendly, my kids go to all of them. My daughter had trouble sleeping which impacted her nights and I had a great meeting with staff and we worked together on it, they were really open to everything and helped resolve it. We are really happy here and always recommend it.

My daughter has been attending Riverside for almost 2 years and I’m so pleased we chose this nursery. She loves going so much that she doesn’t even look back at me to say goodbye when I drop her off in the mornings.
The children’s activities are well thought out and fun. The outside space is incredible.
The food served is healthy and varied. Communication from staff and management is excellent. I also love the way the nursery involves parents with Mother’s Day/Father’s Day events, Christmas concerts, parents evenings etc.
I would thoroughly recommend this nursery and can completely understand why the waiting list is so long!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team at Riverside Day Nursery Windsor are a godsend. They have taken such wonderful care of our son over the years, he comes home from nursery happy, having spent different days of the week doing different activities - swimming, yoga, walks to see the swans and ducks, PE, art, reading, etc. The
nursery also takes full advantage of the fantastic outdoor space, in the dedicated outside play area for the nursery. Knowing our son spends plenty of time in the fresh air while still playing and learning has been great for his development. The nursery staff clearly all care for the children. Almost as important, it is clear the owner of the nursery and her management team at the nursery take the time to organise things for the parents too - Father’s Day and Mother’s Day gatherings at the nursery, Christmas performance by the children, personalised cards from your child, etc. It really is all round a wonderful nursery. I cannot recommend highly enough!

This is the best nursery around. The staff are amazing; they are caring, kind, friendly, loving and giving to all of the children in their care. My daughter absolutely loves it here and my son will soon start. It is extremely reassuring to know how well looked after they are and the brilliant learning
and development they receive. There is a reason they have a huge waiting list! Thanks for all you do Riverside staff!

We could not be more thrilled with our experience at The Riverside Day Nursery Windsor since our daughter joined three months ago. The baby room team are organised, collaborative, creative, warm and fun. It is really a home away from home for her and we drop her off with such peace of mind; safe in
the knowledge that she is well cared for by the whole team of practitioners and managers.

I cannot rate Riverside Day Nursery highly enough. Facilities, staff, extra curricular activities are all amazing. Nothing is too much for the staff and the nursery sets the children up perfectly for School. Outside space is incredible too.

Seeing my son's eagerness to go to preschool every day and also how he has grown since the time he joined, I can't recommend this nursery enough. Love the staff and the activities they have to teach different aspects of life and education. The best nursery around I can definitely assure.

Riverside is an outstanding nursery. My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was 10 months old and I have always felt reassured by the staff that she is being cared and nurtured for. My daughter's development has been amazing and I feel that the nursery have, and continue, to support her
learning everyday. It's a pleasure to drop her off in the morning and see her enter the nursery with a big smile on her face.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been with The Riverside Day Nursery for almost 4 years now and both our daughters have absolutely thrived in this nurturing and educational setting.
I'm always amazed at how innovative and creative the team are when designing play tasks and this keeps it fun and interesting for the children.
They also run events for Mother's and Father's Day every year and put on a Xmas concert & party, which makes the parents feel involved.
The space and facilities are fantastic and the children especially love the outdoor area and on top of this the staff are wonderful. Kind, caring and supportive in the development of the children.
I wouldn't have chosen anywhere else for my girls to start their journey into the big wide world and I feel so lucky that we have had such a special time with The Riverside Day Nursery

After a decade of near-continuous childcare, my third child is almost ready to leave The Riverside! It's been wonderful seeing the business grow over this time, see the staff move up through the ranks and see their service evolve over this time. It's been great knowing that we'd always get the feedback
that we'd need to keep our kids on track and that all of the staff were open to receiving feedback from us as well.
Although all different, all of my daughters have left The Riverside feeling happy, confident and excited to start school - what more could a parent ask! Thanks so much to the whole team for everything you've done over the past decade!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been attending The Riverside Day Nursery since he was 11 months old in the Younger Babies room and he is now almost 3 years old.
I cannot say enough brilliant things about this nursery. Our son had never had any form of childcare - being a Covid baby he hadn't even been looked after
by family before. He came to Riverside from that to four and a half days and he has just thrived there from day one.
The staff are so caring, thoughtful, fun and supportive. They truly care about the children and the children have so much fun every day. Their creativity and dedication in the nursery rooms and activities they plan is amazing. I have never seen such amazing displays! The new outdoor garden play area is brilliant and my son loves playing outside. This was a big reason we chose this nursery over others in the area. For me, the most important thing is that they prioritise children being happy children. They are confident, independent and come skipping into nursery every day.

The Riverside Day Nursery is a nurturing nursery where each member of staff cares from the heart. There is a consistent approach across the nursery, reflecting outstanding leadership.
Our child loves attending the nursery and the team are always approachable and friendly.
Any parent just wants for
their child to be safe, happy and develop to their full potential; Riverside nursery ensures that this happens.
We are grateful for the entire team's effort in providing a high level of care and are looking forward to watching our child grow at Riverside nursery.
We would highly recommend the nursery to other parents and do just that, hence there is a waiting list due to the high demand!

Our Son has attended The Riverside Day Nursery from 9 months, he’s now two and a half and has loved every second! He has a great relationship with all the staff and loves telling us about his day and all the fantastic activities he gets up to including yoga, moo music and playing in the garden.
He’s
built his first peer relationships and we get regular development reviews which are all glowing, a reflection of the hard work and attention the staff put in. We are in no doubt we made the right choice in childcare.

We feel beyond grateful every day to send our children to such a special environment where they happily walk in each morning. The staff are incredible, kind, reassuring, and consistently prove that they genuinely care. And beyond that, our children are thriving - learning new things at the rate of knots
thanks to the thoughtful activities and experiences arranged by the team.

I chose The Riverside Day Nursery upon recommendation from a friend. After lockdown I had concerns over my son's development. He started in older babies at 17 months old. I was comforted by their nature and care of him. I was apprehensive about him moving into toddlers incase he didn’t do so well but
Riverside had additional team members that were equally as good as older babies. This reassured me that I had most definitely chose the right nursery. By this stage my concerns over my son were more apparent and we were heading towards an ASD diagnosis. He needed to move into preschool and my fears over whether he was ready or whether it would be too advanced were still there. Riverside have been so accommodating and responded compassionately to my concerns. I put my trust in them as the professionals and yet again they excelled. They were and are the right place for my boy. Every single team member adapted to his needs. He thoroughly enjoys Riverside and I couldn’t ask for a better team to look after him.

My daughter is leaving for school this year. Fully prepared for school thanks to the fantastic team at The Riverside Day Nursery. We are very sad to leave Riverside. Throughout her time at Nursery/preschool they have encouraged her development and always kept her interested. She has always had a special
bond with key people and has made so many friends. The staff enthusiasm and the range of extra activities swimming, Spanish lessons, yoga etc is amazing! I feel school may be a little disappointing in comparison!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.954)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.954) out of 10 for The Riverside Day Nursery Windsor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.954 for The Riverside Day Nursery Windsor is calculated as follows: ( (206 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.954
  2. 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 The Riverside Day Nursery Windsor is based on 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
