A wonderful, safe, nurturing nursery, with outstanding caring, loving, enthusiastic and dedicated staff. My son thrived here, loved going in every single day. The staff are amazing, Georgina leads the nursery with pride, and her staff are one in a million.

My son attends Wellingtons nursery and loves it there. He has a good group of friends and is comfortable leaving us and being in the care of the staff at the nursery. The SENCo lady has gone above and beyond in her role of supporting my son, along with the nursery manager. My son is looking forward
to another year with you all before he starts big school!

Review from Nae J (Mother of Child) published on 5 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
My son attended the nursery for 3 days, the rooms are nothing like the pictures, lack of organisation and lack of care to children. On my son's settling in session there was a little girl who's nose was running the whole time I was there and not one member of staff thought to wipe her nose until I asked
them what the procedure was for this. I have been overcharged on my invoice for two consecutive months. The manager is very rude. I called and the phone was hung up to which she then said it was due to connection - later saying she thought the conversation had ended.
There is no routine for the children, they do as they want, some play with toys, some draw and some just cry for long periods of time (witnessed first hand by myself). Poor handover from staff to parents. When asked what my child had done for the day and what he ate, no one knew. I would avoid sending any child to this nursery as the care for the children is very poor. A couple of good members of staff. Avoid at all costs!

Review from Favour O (Mother of Child) published on 2 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our child has had a wonderful experience here.
The teachers are incredibly understanding, patient, and caring. They've handled every situation, including potty training accidents, gracefully. We love the daily feedback the teachers provide at the end of the day.
The teachers also have a knack for
keeping the children excited and learning, even during challenging moments.
The all-inclusive meals are a huge plus, and we're so grateful for the nutritious meals our child receives. We've noticed a significant improvement in our child's vocabulary and social skills.
Overall, we are incredibly impressed with the quality of care and education provided here. We highly recommend this preschool to any parent seeking a nurturing and stimulating environment for their child.

He was in the baby room for 6 months (left due to work reasons) they made us feel so comfortable and happy leaving the little one there, we got regular updates which helped ease my mind whilst working, and the smile on my little one's face when he saw his key worker in the baby room said it all and
how much he loved being there and with her. They continuously helped develop his skills and progress in all areas. Although in the baby room, we saw other staff members due to the later pick-up time and they were all great with my little one making him smile.

My daughter has started at Wellingtons a few weeks ago. She is only ten months old, and I was quite nervous for her. I am so grateful to the staff members who made these adjustments much easier for her. They update me every day and from time to time send photos to the app. I can see that my daughter
likes the people there very much even though she still cries in the mornings.

Both our children have been at Wellingtons since they were 1 year old. Our oldest had such a positive experience that we had no reason not to send our second one there. She loves it. Staff are friendly and helpful, there is a real sense that they genuinely care for the welfare and development of the
children and they keep us up to date through the online app (and regular parental sessions pre-COVID). Any issues are always taken seriously and dealt with appropriately, and the owners are responsive to feedback. Nurseries are run on tight margins, but we've never felt they've short-changed us.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.565)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.565) out of 10 for Wellingtons Regent Place Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 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 4.365 for Wellingtons Regent Place Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (73 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.365
  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 4.2 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wellingtons Regent Place Day 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 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 = 3.7
    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. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 14 = 0.5
  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.

Jo

Jo Owen

Job Title: Manager Joined: 2015

Jo now manages our site at Regent Place, and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience from her previous position at Wellingtons Lawford Lane. Jo works hard to ensure our staff, children and families at Regent Place are all happy and motivated, and has lots of wonderful ideas for activities with the children and opportunities for them to flourish and grow.


Our parents are particularly appreciative of the support that Jo offers, in ensuring that their children settle into a warm and nurturing routine at Lawford Lane.


Jo managed Lawford Lane from its opening in 2015, and was a key contributor to its growth and success. Jo's incredible organisation skills and positive attitude allowed the nursery to manage significant growth in occupancy, ensuring children, families, and staff all received an excellent level of service. The nursery was sadly forced to close in 2024 at the end of its lease.

Beckee has worked in childcare for over 8 years and has a real passion for the profession, and for ensuring that children are given the best opportunities to flourish and grow. Qualifying in 2021 as an Early Years Teacher, and now working on a PhD, Beckee works hard to keep her knowledge and skills up to date and ensure that developments in thinking and practice are conveyed to her team.

This unique career gives us breadth and depth of experience in childcare and the Early Years curriculum, along with the very important requirements of staff training and development.
