My child started nursery from the age of one year. She has grown and developed into a bright and confident child. Cherubins has played a significant part in this. The staff have been very supportive and encouraging. Good communication between the staff and us. I am very happy and grateful for all the
care that the staff have given to my child.

A very welcoming nursery. In the space of a few months, my daughter has grown in confidence. She has learned so much and is super excited for every nursery day, to see both her friends and staff. The staff go above and beyond to ensure the child and parent feel safe and happy with the day to day and
any special activities that are going on.

Cherubins has been the most underrated and supportive nursery. Incredible setting and even more wonderful staff. Each so caring and have been amazing in looking after and developing our son since he started here when he was ten months old. We feel incredibly likely to have had a place at Cherubins for
our son and will be very sad to say goodbye when he leaves to start at school in September.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff throughout the nursery are polite, caring, attentive and welcoming at all times. The child's learning and development is paramount and a key part of the ethos. I am always kept up to date with any changes or his daily activities. I have seen my son blossom into such a confident, outgoing and
articulate toddler and I am sure it is with the amazing help and support of all who partake in his care. I couldn't be happier as a first-time parent engaging in sending my son to nursery full-time.

The staff at the nursery are amazing, they are very attentive, caring and polite with both children and members of staff. I feel my child has learnt so much whilst being here, with a strong ethos on making sure that all children are developing as much as possible with their uniqueness being treated
as a great quality. My daughter has become so much more confident as a toddler, I honestly could not be happier with the nursery. I would recommend this place highly.

My daughters love their nursery. Their bond with all the staff goes beyond the nursery premises. When your child gets excited to see the nursery manager or the lovely nursery chefs, my heart melts each time. Thank you.
The building is gorgeous, well-equipped and clean, my favourite part is the playground.
Having two buggy sheds is so practical. I am very happy to have my children at Cherubins, their room teachers are all amazing and they all genuinely adore them. The finance lady was so attentive towards my family needs. I am forever grateful.

I have two children so I've had my fair share of nurseries. Cherubins Day Nursery is nothing short of an amazing place to have your children expand their social and mental abilities. My daughter absolutely loved being a part of the Cherubins family and spoke so highly of the nursery practitioners from
the day she started until her last day. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. Thank you for helping our children grow and feel comforted. Thank you for including us parents in their growth (educational growth).

Cherubins Day Nursery has become a standing family community to us and our entire family from being connective, thorough with communication and the care and education of both of my children. The learning facilities and staff have been very compassionate and devoted in bringing out the best skills and
abilities that both of our children possess and enhancing further qualities for the world! I've had a brilliant experience both with on-the-floor staff (excluding one!) and management.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.566)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.566) out of 10 for Cherubins Day Nursery - Chestnut Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.585 for Cherubins Day Nursery - Chestnut Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (68 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 260 Ratings = 4.585
  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 4.981 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cherubins Day Nursery - Chestnut Lodge is based on 21 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 107 number of registered child places is 21.4. 21 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.4 = 0.981
  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.
