Such a welcoming place and very polite staff. My daughter is always happy to attend the nursery, updates regularly on the app for parents who worry like me constantly, which is very comforting. Overall a great nursery, wouldn’t go elsewhere!

My daughter has been here since the beginning of December, and I couldn’t fault it at all! She absolutely loves being here and has developed so much! I get updates daily of my daughter's day, and we love to come home and discuss what she has been learning and how much fun she has had!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children love it at Hamilton Nursery. My youngest settled in so quickly, and I know that this is down to the staff. Staff take time to listen to parents and really care for the children. My eldest has made so much progress, and this is due to the carefully thought out activities. I would definitely
recommend Hamilton Nursery.

Review from Baljit (Father of Child) published on 3 April 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
There’s a great team that makes this nursery a fun, welcoming and supportive place for its children. My son was apprehensive about nursery at the start having not settled at a different setting previously. The team here were so flexible and supportive in helping him settle and now he really enjoys himself.
He has a nut allergy and it’s great that it’s a nut-free nursery and all the team are trained. Recommended.

Review from H P (Mother of Child) published on 28 January 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son is in the baby room, relatively advanced for his age. Due to the new starters, he was acting up due to more faces and now not being the baby anymore. Staff recognised this and started to discuss with us; looked at moving him with trials in the next room. He loves his trials there, and as soon
as he is able and ready, he will transition over. So happy it was not just put down to acting out, but that he needed more challenges to stimulate him, due to the level he is at compared to other children.
Very child-focused and I am so happy.

We are very happy our son has attended Hamilton Nursery. We were a little unsure of the structure when the nursery changed ownership, however, our son has continued to thrive and develop really well here. The nursery nurses are absolutely lovely. We as parents can drop him off and feel confident he
is in very kind and capable hands. Thank you all for your support.

Since it's been taken over it's definitely become a lovely environment to learn in. I liked it beforehand and was really dubious about the changeover, but the staff are fab and lots of new ways to explore and learn, long may it continue.

Review from Victoria A (Mother of Child) published on 19 November 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My two and half year old currently attends Hamilton Nursery. He was at this nursery also prior to the change of ownership. At first, I was a little worried about these changes, but it ended up being extremely positive and brilliant in improvements on the whole, and it has only been a couple of months
so far.
The staff are all approachable and put the needs of my child first. If I have any questions, the staff are always there to help and support me as a parent.
My son is always happy when we drop him off, and when I pick him up he's all happy and running/playing around. The staff are kind and friendly and when we are at home my son talks about the staff regularly. I would definitely recommend this nursery to any parents who are looking for a place for their child, have a look around and you can see how happy the other children are too. My son has built relationships with many people there which is lovely to see. This is definitely a brilliant place to give your child a head start.

Review from Jez S (Grandmother of Child) published on 19 November 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My granddaughter has attended this nursery for many years and is now sadly leaving as she is getting ready to go to school.
Her confidence and social skills have been encouraged at the nursery, as she is an only child her 'diva' spirit is evident ~ but they have curtailed this and encouraged her to
share. My granddaughter gained a very special bond with a nursery member of staff and even though she has moved into several other classes during her time at Hamilton Hilltop, she still goes back to give this said staff member a big hug before we are allowed to leave the building!!!
So for me, it's an easy, genuine, 100% review from me.

My daughter attends Hamilton Nursery and it’s her first nursery she has been to. I was anxious at first leaving her but the girls in the Discoverers room are amazing. They have made me feel at ease leaving her but knowing she is cared for, looked after really well. The vibe I feel when I come to nursery
is a home from home, and that’s why my little girl enjoys it so much. Thank you to the girls in the Discoverers room for making me and my girl feel so welcome.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.366)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.366) out of 10 for Hamilton Nursery 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 11 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 4.908 for Hamilton Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (121 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.908
  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 4.458 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hamilton Nursery is based on 11 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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.458
  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.
