My son has had a great start at Riverside. The staff took great care in ensuring he was in the right room, with the right key worker, and most of all, happy. He settled quickly, has a great time and this is due to the excellent care.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been really happy with Riverside and most importantly our son is very happy there. He has always been very well cared for. Since he has been in pre-school he has made great progress with his learning as well as with social, emotional and self-care skills. There’s also a brilliant range of activities
and enrichment trips for the pre-school children - our son particularly enjoys his swimming lessons. Communication with parents has improved significantly since the nursery started using an app. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Riverside to others and look forward to continuing our relationship with nursery when our baby daughter starts next year.

I have a 3-year-old who doesn’t speak or understand English. She had a hard time settling down but I was very surprised with the loving care each one of the staff gave her. They were always cuddling her when she was nervous and were very patient to understand her needs. Besides, they have plenty of
outside spaces to play. I definitely recommend The Riverside Day Nursery!

Before signing my daughter up to the nursery, I could see there were plenty of activities to keep her entertained and the facilities appeared clean and well maintained. Upon her joining, the staff did a wonderful job at making my daughter feel secure, settled and happy. They really went the extra mile
to ensure she had an enjoyable time when she struggled being away from home, she now cannot wait to go to nursery and I have to fight for a kiss goodbye! The carers are all are wonderful in ensuring my daughter is continually learning new skills, improving her language and communication and encourage her to eat and sleep well. The introduction of the app to keep up to date when how my daughter is getting on throughout the day gives me real peace of mind. I. Would highly recommend the nursery to parents.

Riverside Day Nursery is about the children.
They are always doing new exciting and creative activities to keep the children entertained. Our son loves his music classes and is very excited for his first trip to the local theatre this Christmas.
They have introduced a new feedback app which is brilliant.
Getting instant feedback including photos and small clips of what my son is doing during my working day melts my heart.
They even go the extra mile and look after us parents too with special Mother's & Father's Day Teas and Breakfast.
A well organised and team-spirited nursery... thanks Team for making it easier to leave the little fella in your safe hands.

Our son has been here for over a year now. We highly recommend this nursery to all parents. He has a really good time and the carers are very attentive and switched on. We have no concerns about leaving him there. They are a trusted pair of hands. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been delighted with the care shown to our son since he joined the nursery earlier this year. We sent our daughter to another nursery in Windsor last year before she started school and were pretty unimpressed. That disappointing experience prompted us to look at alternative nurseries and we have
been so pleased with our decision. I would recommend the Riverside Nursery to any parents looking for good quality childcare.

Review from C D (Mother of Child) published on 6 December 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When I walked through the door, I instantly knew this was where my daughter would be happy and so would I. Everyone is so creative that each week the children’s imaginations light up to see how each room will be. The effort, care and personal relationships with each child is established with all the
early education you would want but your child thinks it’s all just fun. You can see that time, money and thought is put into how all the children are cared for and when you drop your child off you feel confident that they will have a fun and happy day so you can get on with yours. There are many choices in Windsor but once you meet the manager and all the wonderful staff I’m sure, like many other parents, your search will be over. Plus if you’re that way inclined you could always use the gym.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been attending Riverside for nearly two years now and we couldn’t be happier. The nursery staff are friendly and helpful, enthusiastic and genuinely happy in their jobs and our daughter loves it there. She is always welcomed by name and her individual needs are always met. They get
plenty of time to play outdoors even in the cooler months and there are a wide variety of activities to keep them occupied indoors too. We are frequently amazed by the things that our daughter learns during her time there and can definitely see the advantages of her spending time at this wonderful nursery.

Review from Rebecca C (Mother of Child) published on 6 December 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having researched into several local nurseries for my 12-month-old Son, Riverside were the most welcoming and left a lasting impression. The defined areas for each ages group of children are bright and inspiring, the new baby room and pre-school rooms impressed me the most, they have a choice of outdoor
areas too. The staff are brilliant with the children, encouraging them to engage with both other children and adults and develop their skills. They are proactive in wanting to know how your child has been when you drop off and are keen to help settle your child taking away any anxieties. The nurseries new app for parents is brilliant, it reassures you that your child has eaten, slept and is happy, through up to date data, pictures and videos rather than the end of day debrief. Thank you, Riverside.

As I’m sure all new mums are, I was incredibly nervous to leave my son in nursery, but the ladies at Riverside were wonderful. They gave him all the cuddles, attention and food required to help him settle in and made me feel at ease. He’s been there eight months and has been in younger babies and older
babies, both lovely rooms with attentive and caring staff who go above and beyond every day (it still amazes me that all the staff know all of the children’s names). Since he started there, I can see how much his confidence and communication skills have grown and I know he genuinely enjoys going and has a great bond with so many of the staff. I urge anyone looking for a nursery to pay a visit to Riverside, you won't regret it.

I know my little girl loves going to nursery and it's such a relief to leave her and not worry. Plus they do lots of activities that are too messy for home. The team are lovely and very accommodating.

Our daughter has been at Riverside for almost a year now and she loves it. The staff are all so happy, enthusiastic and engaging and they have a genuine connection with her. She has learnt so much since being there and has made some lovely friends - as have my husband and I! It's a truly special nursery
and we feel very lucky to have it just down the road from us.

My daughter loves the nursery and the extra activities that they provide e.g. swimming. She reduced her hours in march and I was worried that it would have a big effect but she's done well.

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.
