Since my son started at Westwood Day Nursery he has really developed. He struggled to settle in at first, but the staff were really patient and reassuring with both him and us! My son now loves coming into nursery and I trust that he will have a lovely day with lots of activities.

I recommend the nursery to anyone who is looking for recommendations for nurseries as I cannot recommend them enough. We moved 45 minutes away and still kept our children here as they love it so much. The staff are amazing and do such a great job. Thank you, everyone.

At Westwood Day Nursery my daughter is always greeted warmly in the morning and I can go to work knowing she has gone into her room happy. At Westwood, she gets to be a part of a wide variety of activities that help to develop her understanding and knowledge of different concepts that I would struggle
to teach her about at home. Her language has blossomed in the last few months and this is down to the enthusiastic staff having conversations with her and allowing her the time to talk and be herself.

Staff are knowledgable and welcoming. My daughter has been in the nursery for a year and a quarter and her confidence has developed lots in this time. She enjoys coming to nursery and everyone is approachable and caring towards her. There are a wide range of activities available and she enjoys learning
new skills and information.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my daughters have attended this nursery and we couldn't be happier with the service provided. The meals are all made fresh on the day and there is always so much variety, we are confident our daughter has eaten well. The one thing we really love is all the rooms have their own gardens and most
can just free flow in and out.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has attended this nursery for nearly 9 months now and the standard of care that has been provided has been exceptional. Nothing is ever too much trouble and I feel very comfortable asking questions too which for me is very important. It's such a hard decision to hand over care of your child
but this nursery goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and at ease. She is developing so well now and I’m so proud of how much she has learnt. All of the nursery staff are so friendly and welcoming it’s such a warm environment.

Outstanding in every way. My daughter has thrived in her time at Westwood Nursery. The staff are always welcoming and attentive to the needs of the child.
I'm so happy that I chose Westwood and cannot praise them enough. A particular thanks to three staff members in particular.
I love the cultural
diversity and activities the nursery offers.
Thank you.

Review from Yuwaraj P (Father of Child) published on 4 December 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter joined nursery recently and we have seen improvements in her. My daughter has explained the target set for her in the next 6 weeks to address her communication skills. We recently had a parent's meeting on 8/11/18 with staff and she briefed us about our daughter and her day-to-day behaviour.
It was good to know how my daughter has been observed. We also liked the targets set by staff to improve our daughter's skill set. We think our daughter needs to be challenged at different levels than normal and the staff has promised to look into this. Thank you, we were all very impressed by Diwali 2018 decoration and all staff are great.

We send our son to the nursery and he loves it and has developed so much.
At first it seemed expensive but when you break it down they are receiving the best care and its all inclusive with the food and amount of activities they have so really works out reasonable compared to others. We are looking
forward to seeing him grow as the nursery prepares him for school.

We have been really impressed with the nursery, the staff are very friendly and welcoming whenever we drop off or pick up our daughter. The overall communication between the nursery and ourselves is excellent. The feedback received daily on our daughters day at the nursery is very informative and detailed.
Our daughter has come on a great deal since attending Westwood and enjoys it there.

As our child's time at Westwood is drawing to a close with her impending school adventure about to begin, this is our final review!


We can not recommend this nursery enough, it is everything we had hoped it would be during the 3 years our daughter was in their care.


The single level layout of

the building lends itself to a very safe and secure environment for the children with designated playground areas for different age groups providing sufficient learning and play for all. The staff are always welcoming and caring towards the children and genuinely show an interest in their individual needs. Their progress and development are monitored by an online system called Parentzone which we have found invaluable in understanding her day to day activities and learnings.


Thank you to all at Westwood who have supported out daughter on her nursery journey!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.873)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.873) out of 10 for Westwood Day Nursery (Coventry) 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 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.873 for Westwood Day Nursery (Coventry) is calculated as follows: ( (382 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 432 Ratings = 4.873
  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 Westwood Day Nursery (Coventry) is based on 36 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 36 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.
