Review from Rachel W (Mother of Child) published on 18 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been going to Ashbourne day nursery at Alfreton since Jan/Feb 2025. She has taken a lot of settling in but the staff couldn't have been more accommodating to helping her and us as parents. Regular updates and reassuring us. She is provided with lots of play opportunities, eats nutritious
meals and I genuinely feel the staff care about her and her well being. We massively appreciate everything they have done over the last 9 months and know they will continue to provide exceptional care in the coming years as she progresses from babies to toddlers and preschool. Thank you for being so patient with our baby.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our son started at Alfreton in January 2025 and has settled in really well and taken to all the staff who have been really lovely and accomodating.
The communication via the app can sometimes not be updated and as a parent it is important and reassuring to know how our son is getting on throughout
the day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been coming here since June 2023, and she loves it!
All the staff are amazing with her, even from day one, when she cried when left.
Now, she goes in without looking back.
The manager is very accommodating with requests and always helps as much as he can.
Our daughter has so much
fun some days she doesn't want to leave.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sons loves coming to the nursery and has taken a shine to all the staff, he's made tonnes of friends and tried new foods, he also learns new things everyday. He loves the arts and crafts they do with him and enjoys playing outside with his friends. The staff are very caring and look after him exceptionally,
they always make sure to call if there's an incident even if its minor which is great.

Review from Sophie A (Mother of Child) published on 14 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery is amazing, great location right by Alfreton town centre. It’s been taken over in the last year and you can already see the potential, the staff are working so hard to make it really special.
The manager is very friendly and approachable and the other staff members are always smiling and
have a lovely nature. My little boy struggled to settle at first but with lots of patience and perseverance from the team he’s much happier now and we’re really grateful for that. He enjoys a wide variety of home-cooked food and comes home tired but happy. Thank you!

Excellent nursery, my son loves attending daily, staff are always welcoming and friendly, staff keep you up to date on what my son has been up to and what he has played with ect, they also do occasional fun days where parents/carers are welcomed to join them in an activity. The inside and garden areas
are excellent with a very good variety of toys and games for children to choose from.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.324)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.324) out of 10 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Alfreton is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 4 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 4.729 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Alfreton is calculated as follows: ( (40 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.729
  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 3.595 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Alfreton is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 91 number of registered child places is 18.2. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.2 = 0.22
  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.
