  • The Old Station Nursery Marlow, Marlow
The Old Station Nursery Marlow has recently undertaken a huge refurbishment. Finished in October 2023, the setting has been carefully designed to meet the individual and everchanging needs and developmental stages of each age group.

The organic enhanced nursery has an immersive curriculum where children actively engage in nurturing plants, tending to their growth, and harvesting produce, acquiring valuable insights into plant life, various fruits and vegetables, and culinary techniques. The nursery is also cookery-enhanced, highlighting specially designed cooking and baking tools prioritising children's safety. The skills learnt through cooking can be utilised across other aspects of life.

Each room at Marlow is equipped to support the learning and development of children at different ages, and the nursery has created an environment that allows children to develop relationships with themselves, others and the world around them. The nursery follows a Montessori inspired approach alongside its Forest School enhancement, which is all about exploration and supported risk-taking through learner-inspired hands-on experiences in a natural setting.

We are so happy with the nursery. Since it had the refurb, the facilities are amazing, and so are the staff. Our daughter has a great bond with all the staff, especially two particular members of staff! They are very accommodating to our daughter’s dietary requirements. I would definitely recommend
The Old Station Nursery Marlow.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our 18-month daughter started at the Old Station Nursery in Marlow a month ago. The staff there are absolutely amazing and they helped her settle in her new nursery very quickly. She is now happy to go to nursery every day, says goodbye to us at the door and runs inside to find her teachers and friends.
The environment is so calming with plenty of nice toys for the little ones. She learns so much, coming home everyday with new words and things she learned to do there. The garden is fantastic with plenty of activities. Big sunny spacious rooms and renovated facilities. The food is healthy with plenty of options everyday. Overall, we are so happy to see our little one develop so well and being so happy there!

Thank you for sharing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy started at 10 months and I was very anxious but the nursery staff have been absolutely lovely and put me at ease. The rooms for each group are large and beautifully decorated. Toys are age-appropriate and well thought about. I like that they take kids outdoors most of the days irrespective
of the weather. So far I am a happy parent of a very happy boy at Old Station Nursery Marlow. I would highly recommend this nursery.

So pleased to hear that your child is enjoying nursery. The refurbishment is wonderful and the gardens are going to look even more stunning when the sun finally starts to shine.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Old Station Nursery has been great since day one. We’re so glad we opted for them. The Manager and the whole team take such good care of our little boy, and he’s flourished since joining a few months ago. He loves attending and has a wonderful bond with the team which is lovely to see - as do seemingly
all kids who go to the Old Station. As a parent, I can’t recommend it enough and couldn’t be happier that we made the decision to enrol our son there.

This nursery is fantastic. The staff is loving, caring and kind. I can always have a chat with the staff and ask questions. I feel taken seriously as a first-time mum and my wishes are heard and respected. Our son loves going there and it gives me peace of mind to see him so happy at nursery. The Manager
and the nursery team have been absolutely brilliant with our little boy and he loves seeing them every morning we drop him off! Can’t recommend this nursery highly enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been blown away by the staff and facilities at The Old Station Nursery Marlow and the management of the overall nursery group. The staff are so warm and welcoming that my little one - 22 months - gives me a quick hug and then runs in to play in the morning. I've also noticed a huge difference
in his speech and critical thinking since starting in August 2023. The facilities are newly renovated with all new features and toys and each room is full of age-appropriate activities. We are so happy with our decision to move our son to this nursery.

Review from Montana A (Mother of Child) published on 20 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would highly recommend this nursery/preschool to anyone.
My daughter has settled in so well, and she loves it. On the days she doesn't go, she asks to go to school.
The staff are so caring and welcoming, and every morning, welcomed with smiles. They're so helpful with any problems you are having
and helpful with anything that you might be struggling with. For example - potty training.
Highly recommend, 5 out of 5.

Our 1-year-old has grown in confidence since attending this nursery. She's so much better at being around other children and is learning loads. She also has a real bond with the ladies who work there. She's happy to go in every day and seems to genuinely enjoy it.
We have nothing but praise for the
staff. It's nice to know that our daughter is being well cared for.

Review from Jemma S (Mother of Child) published on 18 November 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Amazing nursery! My daughter was a 'covid' baby so going to groups or even meeting people wasn't happening due to lockdowns. I first met management who showed me around and answered all my questions (and I had a lot ha!) and she was so helpful, supportive and understood that my daughter hadn't had the
'normal' introduction to life. The nursery rates and options are great compared to other nurseries and they try to accommodate as much as possible. When my daughter started nursery she was introduced to the nursery manager and they have such a beautiful relationship (my daughter even gets upset when she has to say goodbye to her). She and the team have transformed my daughter into such a happy, fun-loving, independent little girl. She used to be quite sheepish with others due to covid but with their help and support it's like she is a different child and I can't thank the management and the team enough. I would definitely recommend sending your child to The Old Station Nursery Marlow.

Lovely staff and very happy children! Our eldest recently started school after 3 years at nursery and has made a fantastic start, a large part of this being due to her early years at this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.923)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.923) out of 10 for The Old Station Nursery Marlow 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.923 for The Old Station Nursery Marlow is calculated as follows: ( (275 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 297 Ratings = 4.923
  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 Old Station Nursery Marlow is based on 25 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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8, which has been reached with 25 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.
