Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I couldn’t be happier with the care and education my son receives at Snowdrop House Montessori Nursery. He currently only goes 1 day a week, but from how happy and settled he is there you wouldn’t know it! He talks positively about his time there and the staff who look after him and I’m very impressed
with the daily feedback through the Famly app. It’s so nice to see snippets of his day. His key worker is so lovely and she knows him so well! My son is about to increase his days and I know that he will continue to do amazingly there. Thank you, everyone!

Snowdrop House is an amazing nursery. All the staff are so loving and caring with our son and also support him to do so many fun activities. They share photos and videos throughout the day, so I can see what lovely things he is getting up to. They have managed his cow's milk allergy amazingly, and I
feel so confident that he is getting the best care and love while I'm at work. The facilities are so lovely, clean, new and with fantastic resources for all ages. All my children have gone through this nursery, and my older two were so ready for school thanks to the brilliant activities they did in the pre-school room.
I can't recommend them highly enough.

Snowdrop House is an excellent nursery - the staff are all professional, friendly and welcoming. The facilities for outdoor and indoor play are great. The daily updates and general communication from the whole team are great!
Most importantly, my daughter loves going every day - she has made lots of
little friends, and I can see the positive impact the nursery is having on her development.
Highly recommend!

We chose Snowdrop House for our daughter during lockdown when we weren’t able to visit the nursery when it was open and full of children. Naturally, it was a little nerve-wracking, but the staff soon made us feel at ease. Our little lockdown girl settled almost instantly! She adores everyone who works
there and runs in every day. She is a confident, creative little girl who has been nurtured and loved so well, and we couldn’t be more pleased! We absolutely love the Montessori influence as well, and it is showing in our independent little girl.

We've been at Snowdrop House Montessori Nursery since late 2019 and our daughter will leave to go to school this September. I feel tremendously fortunate that we found Snowdrop House. Our daughter has been looked after from Day One, always happy to go in, and she's learned so much. The children are
always well behaved, and they focus on constructive and calm activities, rather than burning off energy. During the lockdowns the staff were incredible during very difficult times. I can't thank them enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
What can I say, this nursery is outstanding! The staff are brilliant, so accommodating and professional and how I know it's a great nursery is all down to how my daughter talks about the place. My daughter refers to the nursery staff members as her best friends, she talks about her day with pride, happiness
and absolute joy! They have honestly been amazing with my daughter's routine, mirroring her home life, the food is great and she is always learning something new. They give every child all the love and attention that is needed and I don't ever feel that my daughter is left out or not getting what she needs. The facilities are great, with all the educational toys that you could need or want, and my daughter is always coming home with something new that she has made or drawn which is lovely. The Famly app which is where you can follow what your child has done in the day is informative and easy to use. I can honestly say I would recommend this place to everyone they are simply outstanding!

We are so pleased with our choice of nursery - Snowdrop House Montessori Nursery is a home away from home for our son and he absolutely loves attending every day! We have seen huge progress in his speech, development and maturity since he has attended the nursery. The staff are so warm and attentive
and always so helpful and supportive if you have any questions or concerns. The nursery setting and facilities are also fantastic, with a lovely big outdoor space and lots of fun play equipment.

A wonderful nursery with amazing staff, excellent facilities, outside space and fantastic communication, especially over the pandemic.
My daughter loves it here and has made some great friends. She looks forward to going and has learnt so much along the way. Her brother with be joining soon, and I

My daughter loves Snowdrop. Every day she has a new story to tell and how the staff look after her when mummy and daddy are not around. Our girl has really become a very confident, funny little girl since joining Snowdrop, and I couldn’t be happier with the communication from staff and the overall experience.

We are very happy with the nursery. Our daughter loves it, and she goes in with a smile. The staff are amazing! We thought a lot before we made the decision, and we visited another nursery, but this one was by far the best choice for us.
We are very lucky.

Snowdrop House has and continues to be such an amazing nursery.
My son has come in on leaps and bounds since going. Staff are so friendly, knowledgeable and approachable.
Can’t wait for my youngest son to start in March this year too, and to see how he develops away from us at home!
Thank you
so much to all the staff at Snowdrop House for making me, as a parent, feel at such ease knowing my boys are and will be in such great hands!

Snowdrop welcomed my daughter with open arms and she is treated so well there. The staff are incredibly accommodating and have completely adapted to my daughter's needs. The app is an absolute bonus, which allows me to keep in contact with the nursery as well as see updates on my daughter's day. As
a first time mum, I need security and reassurance, and that is exactly what I have received.

My daughter has been in Snowdrop for more than two years as a full-time student, and she's been very happy there. The teachers and staff are very friendly and responsible. They do care about the well-being of children, and the teaching is well structured. My daughter learnt a lot from nursery and formed
very good habits and manners.

Great nursery - well run, accommodating and kind staff throughout. Teachers are wonderful, as is the manager and owners. Our son started with them during lockdown, so there are some limitations as to what we can rate (ie, cleanliness and outside facilities etc), but they take every measure to make sure
the children are safe from bugs and are considerate of the wider family too when these things inevitably arise. They have been great for our son and flexible for us as a family, which helps so much having just had our second child. Would highly recommend Snowdrop House.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.796)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.796) out of 10 for Snowdrop House Montessori 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 7 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 4.904 for Snowdrop House Montessori Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (76 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 83 Ratings = 4.904
  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 3.892 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Snowdrop House Montessori Nursery is based on 7 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 + 0.05 = 3.6
    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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.292
  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.
