My daughter has attended this nursery from the age of 1 to 3 years. She has enjoyed her time there. All staff are friendly and caring. Also the app allows you to get updates on your child throughout the day. Very good nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending this nursery for over three months now and I couldn't praise all of the team enough. I was worried about her settling in but her nursery aunties have been beyond amazing. We've been supported through every step, no question left unanswered and I was kept up to date with
her day. My daughter is a cuddly baby and her teachers ensured she's cuddled as often as she needs. It was reassuring to see that our needs as a family were respected. Within these few months, my daughter's development skyrocketed. I see her hitting her milestones and I am certain that it's a big impact from the amazing team at Oak Tree Day Nursery. The place itself is big, clean, and has various rooms that can provide different stimulation. Food is fresh and nutritious, my daughter wasn't too interested in solids before nursery and now she eats everything! It makes my heart grow when I see her smiling at her nursery aunties before we walk in. Thank you!

My two boys had been going to Oak Tree Day Nursery since they were 6 months old and 2 years old and they honestly loved every single day of the last 3 years. Every single member of staff from the management and admin team to the caretaker knows every child by name and genuinely cares for all the children.
Arriving every morning to such a welcoming and homely place has made every drop-off and day at work/college a lot easier and stress-free knowing they were happy and well looked after and seeing their development and interaction with her peers is wonderful.
I would highly recommend Oak Tree Day Nursery to anyone looking for a nursery in the area and I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful and happy environment for my two boys.

My daughter has been in Oak Tree Day Nursery since she was one year old and now she is about four years old.
I am very grateful to the staff for taking such excellent care of my little girl and for teaching her so many things and making her day so much fun and training her. My daughter will miss them
so much, thank you for everything.

My little girl has loved Oak Tree Day Nursery; she comes home a happy girl every day. We are moving out of the area and are really sad to have to take her out of their care. The staff are wonderful - particularly my little girl's key worker, room leader and the manager. Great activities including Zoo
Lab on a regular basis. The app they use to share updates through the day is so great and provides peace of mind that my little one is happy and learning lots! We get regular updates from her key worker about the things she is working on development-wise with her as well. Communication is very good and the manager always has time for you even though it is quite clear she is a busy lady! Thank you Oak Tree Day Nursery team - we are sad to leave you!

Wonderful and outstanding nursery, our oldest daughter was so happy there and our youngest is there now. She bounces in every morning and doesn't look back. The staff are so caring attentive and provide daily updates and progress reports, they really know how to bring the best out of the children, help
them with their learning journeys and more important, keep them safe and very happy.

My son learned so much there and has been looked after very well.
Many thanks to the management and staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I and my partner rate this nursery as the best option to leave our children. Two of our children have been there and currently, one is in the nursery. The owner is the best lady, professionally looking after everything. The manager is amazing, caring, educated and the politest manager, very caring and
full of love. All the teachers looked after the kids as if they were their kids. We feel as if they are part of our family after many years of bringing our children there, from my 8-year-old daughter and son, and another son is currently in the nursery. We highly recommend this nursery, full of great activities such as sports and music. Food menu is top quality and play area is wonderful.

I can't praise Oak Tree highly enough. The staff are so warm and caring and committed to the children, as well as really communicative to the parents. Also, the extra things they offer like Zoo Lab visits and singing sessions are just so great. My daughter thrived there, in spite of all the disruptions
of coronavirus, and the staff felt almost like family by the end.

I really cannot recommend Oak Tree Day Nursery highly enough. Over the last four years, they have taken wonderful care of two of my sons - showing them patience, kindness and love. The staff are very professional, dedicated and care very deeply for the children. Communication is great - we receive regular
updates throughout the day about food/sleep/toilet/play, so I always know what my son has been up to. The food is nutritious and varied, and children are supported to learn to eat independently. The premises are always clean, and the rooms have a great range of toys/books. There is also a large well-equipped play area outside (well away from the sounds/smells of the road). Staff ensure that the children spend time outdoors every day. The nursery also provides additional activities, such as french/music lessons - or excursions. My sons have both loved their time at the nursery.

My daughter has been hugely happy here. She has made new friends and has really enjoyed the care and learning received by all the carers/teachers who worked with her at the nursery. She is very excited to leave and start big school with many of her friends that will be joining her there, but I will
be sad to say goodbye to the lovely staff at Oak Tree. However, life moves on.

Our girls absolutely loved Oak Tree! The staff were amazing with them, and they have developed so much since attending the nursery. Not only have they grown in confidence, but their motor skills have come on leaps and bounds. They have been so happy there - we are gutted we are moving out of London
- if we could take the nursery with us, we would!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 15 month old daughter has been attending Oak Tree nursery since she was ten months and always loves going in every day (So much so that I usually don't even get a goodbye wave or even a glance back)! The staff are always very kind and friendly every morning - even when putting away the buggy: I can
hear through the window how they greet my daughter when she enters the room: always with a big smile and are very happy to see her. Love that their fantastic outside space is used so much, particularly now during lockdown: so important for them to be able to get out and play every day. Love the regular observations on the app that are linked to the Development Matters guidelines: so important to know how she is progressing and the next steps needed to help her along the way. Really delighted that we chose this nursery for our daughter - couldn't ask for better care.

I have had two children attend Oak Tree over the last 8 years and can say that both children were well cared for and really felt like it was an extension of their family. The staff have always been very helpful and friendly. It is very clean, they have a great outside area for the children, the music
lessons were always a favourite. Thank you to the amazing staff for always caring for my children like they were their own.

I would like to thank the team at Oak Tree for the great job they did in looking after our Daughter from the age of 9 months, especially the staff in the baby room! We felt like she was really loved and cared for, and we know she definitely enjoyed as she would run in to play with her friends in the
mornings.
Thanks again and best wishes for the future.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.833)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.833) out of 10 for Oak Tree Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 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 4.833 for Oak Tree Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (179 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.833
  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 Oak Tree Day Nursery 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, 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.
