Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter went to Oak Tree from 1-3 so all the way from the baby room to just starting in pre-school. It's a wonderful place and we're so pleased we found it. The staff are friendly, helpful and really get to know the children (not just the children in their direct care). If you have any concerns
they are very responsive and respond quickly. There are also great activities that you may not find elsewhere such as french, music, the annual farm trip, various other trips and parties-visits from the animals with zoolabs and the Christmas party were always a highlight for our daughter. She really enjoyed her time at Oak Tree and was almost always happy to go to nursery in the morning and always happy when we picked her up, chatting about her day. She made lots of friends amongst both the children and staff and has become a really sociable, happy little girl.

Review from Natalie A (Mother of Child) published on 2 September 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am a mother of 4 children and every single one of my children has attended Oaktree Day Nursery. The nursery is very clean, the classroom and toilets are cleaned throughout the day. In the evening cleaners come everyday to give it an extra wipe down which is very important to me. The staff are warm
and welcoming. They are very easy to talk to and any concerns I have had, have been dealt with immediately. I really enjoy the professional bond I have created with staff. I truly believe they prepared my 2 older children for school by encouraging them to write their names, circle time, simple problem solving and also introducing other cultures to them. Oaktree is a very diverse Nursery and really encourage children to experience new things by taking the children to Polka Theatre, and inviting zoola bugs. Music lesson with boogy mites and French lessons every week. They provide breakfast, morning snacks, lunch and afternoon tea which all consist of healthy 5 day balance which my children really enjoy and makes life a lot easier for me. Overall I have no faults with this Nursery and definitely recommend it. It's a wonderful Nursery truly happy with the nursery.

Review from Martina B (Mother of Child) published on 20 August 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is a gem in Streatham Hill and I would recommend it to any prospective parent wholeheartedly. My daughter attended Oak Tree Day Nursery from when she was 1 1/2 years old all through to when she started school. The staff at the nursery were very caring, attentive and guided her through all
her milestones and key stages. Days are wonderfully planned and organized, and there are many extra activities - both on and off site - to choose from, not least a regular annual trip to the farm which my daughter always enjoyed. I would particularly like to recommend the Nursery Manager, who is the perfect combination of competent and caring, making sure all parent's, children's and staff's needs are met, and never forgetting even the tiniest requests that we had. Our time with the nursery was a very positive one, my child is a more confident and engaging as a result of the atmosphere she received there and our years of loyalty have proved our satisfaction with the care received there. I wish all the staff and management of the nursery all the best going forward.

My son has been going to Oak Tree Day Nursery for over 12 months now and I'm pleased with his progression. The staff members are always very friendly and I like the settings of the nursery and their day care. Would definitely recommend!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been at Oak Tree Day for the last 3 and 1/2 years and had our last day this week as our daughter starts school in a few weeks. Our youngest went there too. We are very sad that we cannot leave our son there (too far from the primary school and home). We extremely recommend Oak Tree for any mums
who needs a nursery. Our daughter grew into a social, lovely, bubbly, intelligent girl and all thanks to the staff at nursery. She will be the youngest in school, but the staff made sure she will OK, and she is ready. They have been talking about big school for months and all the children in Pre-school are very excited! We have no negative things to say about Oak Tree. Our daughter started when she was 6 months old with a milk allergy. I was always happy with the care they gave her, from adapting to her diet, to teaching her how to walk, weaned her off the dummy, getting her into a daily nap after lunch, to being potty trained in a week. My daughter always got a personalised Birthday Card from the staff, as well as Christmas ones too. The outside is bigger than any other nurseries we have seen in the area. They organised trips to the library, local parks, theatre and a yearly trip to a farm. They also have weekly music and French lessons which my daughter absolutely loved! The staff managed to make me cry on our last days with personalised goodbye cards, filled with photos of my children with their key worker. Oak Tree is a big family that we will deeply miss!

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.
