Elmdon Day Nursery is a privately owned nursery established in 2004. The nursery is single storey and all the rooms have safety gates, not doors, which gives the nursery an open friendly atmosphere.
There is a small car park at the front.

The nursery caters for all children from birth to five years, with each age group having its own dedicated staff and rooms. Each area is colourful and bright with children's work on display, artistic wall/window murals and plentiful toys and resources. It also has a large, private outdoor area which has a sensory room, mud kitchen, giant sandpit plus lots of space for ride on toys, climbing frames and balancing beams.

The staff plan weekly themes, fun days and charity events to ensure all children have a stimulating and safe environment in which to learn and develop. To compliment this, it has professionals who give music and dance sessions four times a week, which parents can opt their children into. Leapfrog sports and football sessions are also provided.

The setting is part of the Startwell Healthy Lifestyle programme and children have a healthy diet and lots of daily exercise. The nursery can cater for different diets.

I am extremely happy with the nursery and cannot recommend it enough. I was so anxious for my little one starting nursery but all the staff has been so supportive! I am so grateful. It's a comfort knowing he is being looked after by caring, loving people who always have his best interest at heart. Not
only has his confidence grown, he has really came on development wise. We couldn't be happier with the care he is provided.

Thank you for the lovely review. Your son is developing so well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I knew straight away Elmdon was the one for us - instant good vibes from the owner and her team,v.impressed with the building and facilities.
Great at accommodating different dietary requirements, our little boy is vegan and it was no trouble at all to cater for him-he eats a really good variety of
food each week. Love the daily photos - it's clear to see that he is having a blast and enjoying the amazing daily activities. The baby room team are awesome, they keep us informed of what's happening and if there are any issues let us know straight away - my son clearly loves them and now jumps into their arms at drop off! They really care about the babies' development (as well as having fun), we received our first report detailing how our son is progressing and next steps.
My little boy is so happy to head into nursery and this makes me so happy -as a first time mom I was expecting nursery to be a really daunting experience but thanks to Elmdon it's been an absolute delight for all of us.

My daughter has absolutely loved attending this nursery (currently in the baby room) since she started going about 9 months ago. The staff are very friendly and always change up the activities for the kids on a daily basis. My daughter attends the dance class every Thursday which she loves as well.
In addition, the nursery offers a very varied choice of meals for the kids every day which is amazing. I would highly recommend this nursery.

100% recommend Elmdon Day Nursery to anyone. The staff and manager are so lovely and kind and have been amazing with my son, who is now at school and my daughter who attends the nursery now.
My daughter always comes out of nursery happy and smiling so I know she's had a great day. Always lots of fun
and engaging activities. The garden space is fantastic with lots of space to run around and lots of lovely equipment. Couldn't have asked for a better nursery. Thank you all.

Lovely nursery. Great communication with staff. I know my daughter is in the best place and well cared for, she has lots of fun while I work! I love how transparent they are, I often get to see my daughter playing as I collect her. She is always happy and engaged in the enriching activities nursery
provide. Very safe with releasing daughter with other family members and always check with myself and have a password. A beautiful outdoor space too. Lots of people recommended Elmdon to me and I can see why! Thank you Elmdon Day Nursery

I am extremely happy with the nursery and cannot recommend it enough! My son absolutely loves attending, and it's clear to see how much he enjoys his time there. The team has been incredibly supportive, especially in helping him with his speech delay. The progress he has made has been amazing, and I
truly feel at ease knowing he's in such caring hands. His key workers are both so wonderful and attentive - they are absolutely adored by him. I'm confident that we've found the right place for him, and I'm relieved knowing we won't need to change nurseries until he starts school. The peace of mind this gives me is priceless. Thank you to everyone at the nursery!

Our daughter has really settled in well at Elmdon Day Nursery. She enjoys attending and loves the painting activities and playing outdoors. The staff are all really friendly and easy to speak to. We feel our daughter is well looked after as well as their being a wide range of opportunities for our daughter
to develop interests and start to develop her own opinions. Over the term, our daughter's confidence has improved, she is a lot more vocal and expressive. As parents, we are really happy with the care our daughter receives and looking forward to seeing how she develops even more the longer she attends there.

Elmdon have been brilliant with my first children who are twins! As an anxious mum they have gone above and beyond to make the girls feel so welcomed and have helped them settle in. They work individually with my girls to encourage their interests and reassure them that they can still be together throughout
some of the day. My girls have really developed into confident little girls. The staff are all very helpful.
They have been wonderful in catering for one of my girls with a milk allergy too!
Thankyou to everyone at Elmdon!

The staff and management have been incredible for both of my sons. My 3 year old started in the twos room and is now in the preschool room. He started Elmdon with a speech delay and has come on in leaps and bounds. We are so grateful to them for all their hard work and dedication to helping him. He
runs in happy and smiling and is always delighted to be greeted at the door. My youngest son, started in January is the baby room and is absolutely loving it. I highly recommend Elmdon to anyone looking for a nursery in the area.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at this nursery when she was 1 in the baby room and is now in the 2s room, soon to be turning 3 in May. The staff have been wonderful in both rooms, you can tell they really care for the children, the manager/owner of the nursery is very hands on and communicates well. Staff turnover
seems low which is a great sign, and is also reassuring when it comes to consistency of care. They hold parent evenings as well as bi-annual reports which is great for discussing development in more detail. Photos are uploaded daily and in real time so you are able to see what activities your child has done. My daughter is very happy here and looks forward to seeing her friends and the staff. Extracurricular activities such as dance and football are also available through external companies at a small cost if you wish for your child to join. I would recommend it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was recommend to Elmdon Day Nursery by my sister and I will be forever grateful we were able to get a space at the nursery. I was so worried being apart from my daughter but the ladies there put both me and my daughter at rest. She has blossomed since joining and the fact she now just walks in and
doesn't look back brings me so much happiness. The communication is fabulous and the girls who work there are lovely. They go above and beyond to ensure the children have a fabulous time everyday with various tuff trays, different themes, making friends but most of all showing the children how much they are loved. Special thank you to one Nursery Practitioner who our little girl has formed a bond with but also to all the lovely ladies who are always so welcoming and understanding! I couldn't recommend this nursery more! The love and care put into the building and the equipment does not go unseen! Very clean and just somewhere your happy to leave your children.

My daughter has been attending nursery here since she was 8 months old and she absolutely loves it. She’s come on leaps and bounds and it is so reassuring to know she enjoys her days so much.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.961)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.961) out of 10 for Elmdon Day Nursery 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.961 for Elmdon Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (294 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 305 Ratings = 4.961
  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 Elmdon Day Nursery is based on 26 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 65 number of registered child places is 13, which has been reached with 26 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.
