This nursery is exceptional! I have two kids there at the moment, the staff look after them so well and the communication with the parents at the end of the day is very good. They listen to what you want, as a parent, and are very considerate carers. Definitely recommend!

We have absolutely loved Claverdon Village Nursery. Our daughter has been there for over two years and our son is in the baby room now. Both children love it there and are so happy about going. They are always learning so much, like social and emotional skills, independence and life skills, problem-solving
and creativity. The staff are knowledgeable and kind and really know my children and notice what makes them tick, what their interests and passions are. The Montessori approach is brilliant and leads to a calm, happy and playful atmosphere filled with purpose. Also, the food is excellent, with a brilliant nutritious variety.

Consistently excellent care of our little boy. They concern themselves with every bit of his care and development and have wonderful connections with the children in their care. Our son loves it and is coming on leaps and bounds compared to when he was at a different one.
Claverdon Village Nursery

Claverdon Village Nursery is truly amazing, has that family home-from-home feeling soon as you walk in. All 3 of my children went here and all have marvellous memories including their keepsake creative models. They still always want to go back to say hello and often tell me how much they miss it. One
important factor for me was the great staff retention, all 3 of my children had the same key workers - happy staff, happy children. Facilities are great, with plenty of space indoors and outdoors. I would highly recommend this village nursery to anyone looking.

The first steps for a mummy leaving their little one are the scariest but Calverdon Village Nursery made that transition flawless. My daughter flourished throughout her time with all the staff and especially thrived in the Montessori activities! I could go back to work stress-free knowing she was in
the safest hands. I miss her nursery days.

We couldn't have asked for a better nursery setting for our children. Both our children flourished there. The staff were all so friendly and nothing was ever too much trouble. At times they went above and beyond their call of duty to support us. The team became like an extended family to all of us.
I have recommended the nursery to a lot of friends and family.

Claverdon nursery is a fantastic caring, supportive and forward-thinking team who have the well-being and needs of my child at the forefront. Their communication is great both in person and via the app. I also like the fact that the Montessori setting brings on the learning and education of the children.
Both
my boys have previously and currently thoroughly enjoyed the Claverton nursery experience- great large outdoor space and activities.

My youngest child has been in that nursery from 6 months to 4.5 full time. Oldest from 2 till 4.5. By far the best. The staff is amazing. Every day they were happy and smiling. The food is great. My child still tells me that at nursery they cook better than me at home. They really know what they are
doing.

Claverdon Village Nursery is the most wonderful, family-oriented, nurturing place you could wish your children to experience. Both of my children have attended and the foundation that it has given them is phenomenal. Their approach allows children to be prepared for the paths that lay ahead of them.
In particular, it has allowed them both to learn key socialising skills and the educational tools that prepare them for school. This nursery really does put the village feel into their approach and it has been the best choice I could have made.

Amazing nursery. Had all 3 children here and just knowing that my children were happy, well looked after and enjoying their days at the nursery with staff who genuinely cared about them and were interested in knowing them as individuals, made being away from them bearable. Hard to trust people with
your children but this nursery cares so much about them, you always know they're being looked after. All a parent wants is to know that their children are happy and cared for in a wonderful setting, and this place does that.

We are so happy with our choice to send our daughter to Claverdon Village Nursery. She settled in very quickly and always comes home with a big smile on her face. The nursery has a lovely feel which is created by the caring and experienced staff. The purpose-built setting is fantastic and the meals
prepared on-site is excellent.

Our daughter has been going to Claverdon Village nursery for over 2 years now and I honestly can't fault them. Our daughter is always keen to go and comes home talking about her friends and activities she's done with the nursery staff. They're flexible, accommodating, really supportive and all the staff
are just lovely. We are very happy to be sending our second child to the nursery later this year too and feel very lucky to have such a lovely nursery in the village. We chose it because the format isn't too structured or formal - children can be children, and despite not knowing any of the staff beforehand, we also felt like we were leaving her with a family friend which meant we've never worried about her time there. I'd recommend it to anyone!

I cannot recommend Claverdon Village Nursery enough. They have been so helpful and supportive of our child starting nursery and really made us feel completely at ease with the transition. Our child loves going to nursery and they are confident and relaxed being there which I think speaks volumes in
itself! A lovely village nursery, with incredible and hardworking staff who put the care of your child as an utmost priority from day 1.

Claverdon Village Nursery is a caring, nurturing and loving place to help raise your children. Both my daughters attend with my oldest about to transition to Primary School. Claverdon Village Nursery have gone above and beyond to help make that transition as easy and exciting as possible even with
the added pressure of the COVID regulations, they have comforted, educated and guided my children through the changes, even helping to put my own worries at ease. My children always come home with a smile on their face. All members of staff are friendly, smiley and make so much effort to get to know your child individually as well as the parents. I cannot recommend this nursery enough. Thank you!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.960)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.960) out of 10 for Claverdon Village 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.960 for Claverdon Village Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (242 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.96
  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 Claverdon Village Nursery is based on 21 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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4, which has been reached with 21 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.
