Review from Mary B (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son joined Orange Day Nursery in December and initially found it difficult to settle. However, the care, patience and support from the team have been exceptional. He's now thriving and genuinely enjoys going to nursery (he's particularly fond of the garden) which has been wonderful to see. Since
joining, he's had opportunities to celebrate his culture through creative activities, and we've also enjoyed taking part in parent mornings. We really appreciate the regular updates and photos shared on the parent portal.
Delighted with our choice & would highly recommend it to other parents.
Reply from Dilan Cam, Manager at Orange Day NurseryThank you so much for your kind words Mary. We're delighted to hear your son has settled so well and is enjoying his time with us-especially the garden!
It's lovely to know you've felt supported and are enjoying the updates and activities. We truly appreciate your recommendation.

Review from Clara S (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have had a very positive experience starting our 1 year old at Orange Day Nursery in January 2026. The staff are lovely and have formed close bonds with my child. He is now excited to see them in the morning, and goes straight into their arms for a cuddle. The premises are not big but are utilised,
clean and tidy. The outdoor space is great. The nursery staff are very flexible and accommodating to our child's individual needs - he has 2 naps a day in his own cot with his own sleep sack, and they have got to know his appetite, preferences and behaviours really quickly even without us having to explain them all. They organise lots of activities which we don't do at home - painting, messy play etc - and upload photos of this weekly. We are very happy at Orange and frequently recommend it to other families.
Reply from Dilan Cam, Manager at Orange Day NurseryThank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback Clara. We are delighted to hear how happy your child has settled in and that you've had such a positive experience with us. It means a great deal to our team to know their care and efforts are appreciated.
We truly value your recommendation and look forward to continuing to support your child's development.

Review from C E (Mother of Child) published on 17 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our child has attended this nursery for several months now. The staff are very competent and kind. They speak many languages and fully support our child's developing multilingualism. They keep us informed through detailed reports and pictures on the online platform. The nursery also organises events
and parent evenings. The location is also very convenient, next to a tube station. Overall, we're very happy with our choice!

I couldn't be more happy and feel safe leaving my child in this nursery. He's been already there a year and more and the staff at the nursery has been really helpful and supportive by helping him to learn quickly and in a funny way!

Review from Ivy B (Mother of Child) published on 26 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am thoroughly impressed with the care and support provided by Orange Day Nursery. My daughter is always excited and happy to attend, a true testament to the nurturing and stimulating environment created by the staff. The team is not only professional and approachable but also deeply invested in the
well-being and development of the children. Their warm and attentive approach ensures every child feels valued and supported.
I am particularly grateful for the care taken in managing my daughter's allergies. The staff's meticulous attention to detail ensures her safety while allowing her to fully engage in all activities, giving me peace of mind.
Since joining Orange Day Nursery, my daughter has flourished both academically and socially. The staff's dedication to fostering a positive, inclusive atmosphere has been instrumental in her growth. I highly recommend Orange Day Nursery to any parent looking for a supportive, safe, and enriching environment for their child. Well done staff.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.810)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.810) out of 10 for Orange Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 6 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 4.875 for Orange Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (64 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.875
  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 3.935 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Orange Day Nursery is based on 6 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 = 3.55
    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 78 number of registered child places is 15.6. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.6 = 0.385
  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.
