Our little one enjoys spending time with the carers at Riverside. He enjoys turning up each day and always walks out with a smile. We love hearing about his day and the things that he has been taught. Would highly recommend it.

I have 2 daughters attending Riverside full time and they absolutely love it there. We are all extremely happy - The staff are wonderful, and the indoor/outdoor provisions and activities are excellent. Highlights are the outdoor garden and the opportunity for our pre-schooler to attend weekly swimming
sessions.

We absolutely love this nursery! Chose Riverside over the four others we viewed due to the lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and new outdoor play area. The staff always go above and beyond for the children - they honestly feel like family to us. The special parent events are amazing (e.g. Mother's Day
tea with scones and games, Christmas concert, Father's Day surprise) but the best thing is the day-to-day experience: welcoming, lively, supportive, and highly effective staff. Loads of messy play and outdoor time. My daughter has come on so much during her time here. She runs in without a backward glance every morning!

My daughter has been attending The Riverside Day Nursery since she was 9 months and is now 16 months. The teachers went of their way to show patience, care and empathy to help her settle in as she did find it hard, to begin with. She now has a strong bond with her key carer whom she chose.
The range
of activities they do every day is amazing and far exceeds what I could do at home such as painting, baking etc. The food menu is varied and visible to parents and they’ll accommodate any food preferences.
The staff make sure to provide at least one picture update a day, mostly two, and I always look forward to their posts showing what my daughter has been up to and what she is achieving. They also provide updates on her development and progress she is making on important milestones.
My daughter comes home having learnt new skills and songs and it’s wonderful to practice these together and watch her become more independent.
I am so glad I chose Riverside and would highly recommend.

We absolutely love this nursery! The girls are all so lovely and caring! They have an app where you can see what your child is doing all day, what they have eaten and photos of them etc. (Great for paranoid mums.) It’s by far the best nursery around!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
First of all, I cannot say enough thanks to the Riverside team, they really look after the kids. I feel they are in a safe place and well supported/taken care of. The quality and variety of activities they have on a daily basis are fascinating! Our little one has shown amazing progress there, joining
the nursery from a really young age and with no English skills was tough on him and probably the nursery staff as well, now all in the past. Also, having regular and detailed reports on progress is amazing. What is especially comforting is that he loves being there, he likes the staff and the food (which is great ). The staff takes a lot of photos and videos throughout the day which are then shared through the app. The nursery is blessed by being in the sports centre, hence they can do various sports there, including water sports. Playgrounds are spacious and awesome. What we like especially is that nursery is always ready to support on urgencies and that really means a lot!

Absolutely wonderful nursery. My daughter has been going for almost a year and she’s come on leaps and bounds. She adores the staff and children and I couldn’t be happier sending her.
She is excited to go every morning and the staff are so attentive and caring. She’s learnt so much already and their
outside space is wonderful. Highly recommended.

I am constantly amazed at the quality, variety and number of activities my grandson enjoys every day. The staff put so much thought and energy into everything; it’s clear they are really dedicated and caring. I can see he is making progress all the time. Most of all, he obviously loves being there.
I love seeing the photos and videos of him taking part in everything. This is a really excellent nursery.

I couldn't ask for any more from Riverside. It's a hard decision choosing a nursery, especially during covid when you can't look inside! As soon as I met the staff at Riverside, I was confident that my son would be happy there. Since then, I have seen them go above and beyond to support the wellbeing
and development of my child. They make you feel like family; my son rushes to the door every morning and smiles when we say the word 'nursery'. What more could you want? He has come such a long way since he started, all thanks to the creativity, care and hard work of the staff. What a lucky boy!

My child is really happy at nursery, and he has made so much progress since he started. The staff are really helpful and caring, and he loves all the members of staff that look after him.


The communication is brilliant, and we love seeing the photos and videos of what he gets up to every day. Especially

since our son is a 'lockdown baby', it's been so important that he spends time with other children and has different opportunities. The Riverside staff always make sure he is doing a variety of fun activities every day with lots of opportunities for play indoors and outdoors, which has helped him to develop even under these circumstances.

We have two children at nursery and they both love going, my son actually skips to nursery every morning! We love the amount of different activities they do such as painting, cooking, drawing and general playing. The outside area is great for playing football, going in the mud kitchen and riding the
small trikes. The staff are lovely and really care about each and every child. The nursery was great during lockdown last year and did zoom calls once or twice a day throughout. We would highly recommend this nursery to others.

My daughter has been going to Riverside since she was 8-months-old and I could thank the staff enough for the support they give her and me. She has worked her way through the different rooms for different ages, and they review her regularly and only progress her when they feel she’s ready. She is now
is pre-school and loves every minute of it and will be sad to leave when she goes to school.
I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

It is a really difficult decision where to leave ur child, but this nursery, hands down, have given me the confidence to know my child is safe, happy and well looked after. My daughter started at a year old.


My daughter’s allergies are well taken care of, and the staff are all brilliant. She is

now in pre-school and is learning loads!


I am very satisfied and would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking at childcare options.

Our daughter has thrived at Riverside. We’ve always felt complete trust in those that care for her. They have operated safely and with so much kindness and fun during the pandemic, which is a worrying time for any parent sending their child to a setting. The staff at Riverside are just wonderful. We
moved out of the immediate locality two years ago but have made the round trip 4-days a week since because we are so happy with how settled our daughter is.

She is in a safe and happy environment with staff that care for the kids and aren’t scared to give them a hug when needed. Thank you to a great team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My two boys started Riverside in January 2021.
The eldest was returning after a few months break (whilst I was on maternity leave). He was so excited to be returning to the nursery, and he settled back in really quickly and easily.
I was more nervous about my youngest starting, as it would be his
first time away from me at 10-months-old, and he also has a complex medical condition, which means that he has additional needs. The staff were fantastic and sat down with me for an in-depth meeting to discuss his needs, and they had already familiarized themselves with his medical condition and had put some extra provisions in place for him. I really feel that they went out of the way to accommodate his additional needs and never made me feel like it was any trouble. He is now happily settled in the younger baby room, and I feel completely confident that his needs are being catered for.
I would definitely recommend this nursery, especially if your child has additional needs.

My little boy is attending nursery since June 2019. He took so long to settle, and the carers were so patient with him, also his first language isn’t English, and his career always tried to teach him as much as she can, and hi English improved a lot. I’m so glad I choose this nursery. The management
team also is very helpful and patient with me and helps me a lot to use my voucher and free hours.
I highly recommend The Riverside.

Great nursery, our 2 boys (4 and 2) love it and would stay there even on weekend. They managed a very difficult period during covid and kept the staff, children and parents safe. They have plenty of activities every day, indoor and outdoor. Follow up on the development of the children closely. Very
convenient and flexible to support working parents. Definitely recommend it to any parents.

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.
