Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a really wonderful nursery. Our daughter absolutely loves going and runs to the door when we arrive. The staff are really friendly, approachable and helpful and have taken great steps to ensure the children are safe in these crazy times. The new garden looks amazing and I love that they asked
the children what they wanted to see out there. I hope one day we're allowed back inside to see what the children are getting up to.

One of our three children has been attending New Beginnings Loughton for the last seven years and I honestly cannot fault it. The management team is excellent - very approachable, transparent, kind - as are all the staff within the rooms. They should be particularly commended for their Covid response
which was swift, clear, and appropriate. The facilities are purpose-built, clean, modern, light, airy, and spacious, with a fabulous big garden. All of our kids have loved coming here, they have built excellent relationships with staff and other children, and I'll be sad when we have to leave!

My son goes to New Beginnings in Loughton and they are a fantastic nursery. I wouldn’t want him to go anywhere else, they are so helpful, caring and kind. He's come on leaps and bounds since he joined. Highly recommend New Beginnings in Loughton.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am extremely happy with this nursery and am so glad that we chose this one for our 18-month-old daughter. She settled in very quickly and I believe that this was down to the warmth and friendliness of the staff who work there. On her first couple of days, I was instantly reassured through regular
feedback and a couple of telephone calls to let me know that everything was ok which really put my mind at ease. My little girl is so excited to go in the mornings and always comes home with a smile on her face. I am always kept up to date and excellent communication is provided in the weekly book so I know what she has been up to that week. I can not recommend this nursery enough and have friends waiting to put their children in.

Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are pleased your child settled in quickly and enjoying their time at New Beginnings.

My 18-month-old boy started at the nursery a few weeks ago and we absolutely love it. He has settled in perfectly and there are no issues when dropping off or picking up, which is really reassuring for us.
The staff we have met are all absolutely lovely and my wee one is clearly comfortable with them
all.
I have nothing but praise for the nursery!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A wonderful nursery who have responded remarkably well to the challenges of lockdown. I've been really impressed with the way they have adjusted to the new normal- providing a clean and safe environment where my son has been very happy to attend each day. New Beginnings are clearly invested in the social
and emotional development of each child and show genuine compassion and care for all the children at the nursery. My son has been there since he was in the baby room and I have been really impressed with how quickly he has built relationships with each of his key workers. Any issues are dealt with swiftly, professionally and with long-lasting resolutions. A nice space for outdoor play and role-play which provides variety in the style of activities he wants to pursue.

I have two boys at the nursery, they both look forward to going into the building and both have huge smiles on their faces at the end of the day, for me, this is the best review you can have. Both my wife and I feel very comfortable with staff and think that the level of care and attention is second
to none. I would recommend this site to anyone.

My daughter loves it. She's just gone up a room and the staff were so good settling her into her new room.
The staff are very friendly and always happy to see us. They always greet us with smiles and ask how we are. Their feedback given at the end of the day is very thorough so I, as a parent, know
exactly what she's done/eaten etc. The place is always super clean with different activities every day.

My daughter has been attending New Beginnings since September 2016 and I have been nothing but pleased with the service they provide. The staff genuinely care and go above expectations to ensure both child and parents are happy.
My only negative comment would be I'd like it if the nursery did annual
'class' photos. My son's nursery did this and I love having all of the annual pictures from nursery right through to end of primary school.
It's a real keepsake for parents.

Thank you for your feedback. Will we now go back to parents to gather information on the interest of parents to see if this is something we can provide.

The staff at New Beginnings Loughton are amazing, very easy to talk to and really good with my son.
They take time to get to know each child and their needs individually.
I am very happy with how my son has progressed since starting. He is more confident and independent and enjoys his time and nursery.

I have only positive things to say about New Beginnings (Loughton). My daughter has been there for one and a half years now and loves it.
The staff are well qualified, friendly, caring and take an interest in each child.
The premises are great with lots of natural light, sensory room and an outdoor
play area.

Review from P H (Mother of Child) published on 21 January 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We are pleased with the nursery and know that our daughter is safe and happy there. The nursery gives her the opportunity to get creative and we like it when she comes home with things she has created such as cards, mini pizzas and mince pies, which surprisingly tasted great! In the summer the outdoor
area is a great facility for them.
Our daughter went through a phase of being scared of loud and sudden noises. We were impressed with how sensitive the staff and management were in dealing with this.
The nursery gives parents the opportunity to comment on menu's and make any suggestions, which I think is great.
I value when the team leader proactively gives me feedback on how my child has done and enjoyed on any particular day. As my daughter spends 4 days at nurseries it's important to know her likes / dislikes on a regular basis.

Excellent staff and good facilities. Friendly, clean environment. Big garden for children to play.
The only criticism relates to the policy regarding the inability of staff to administer children child pain relief when unwell with high temperature waiting for their parents to pick them up.

New Beginnings is a lovely nursery where the staff really care about the children. They were patient and calm when my little boy found it hard to settle initially. My little boy loves it now. Facilities are really good.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.971)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.971) out of 10 for New Beginnings Day Nursery Loughton is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 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 4.971 for New Beginnings Day Nursery Loughton is calculated as follows: ( (429 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 442 Ratings = 4.971
  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 New Beginnings Day Nursery Loughton is based on 37 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 37 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.
