My son joined in January, having been to a nursery previously I was a bit picky; the staff are excellent. My son loves this nursery so much!
He’s so happy to go every day, he’s speaking more, he’s doing more, the progress and daily updates are amazing for me. They go above and beyond. Thank you so
much, ladies. Definitely recommend this nursery.

My daughter started at St George’s Oadby almost a year ago. She is getting on fantastic and she loves all of the staff. She is always happy to go to nursery which is a big help. I love that they have an app too so I can see what she has been up to and how she’s eaten etc. Thank you St George’s, you
are fantastic.

We have been very happy with the nursery. Even with COVID-19 and all the difficulties that have followed, we have always felt supported by the nursery.
Our child settled in very well and really enjoys being there. All the themed days have been great fun, the emphasis on arts & crafts and the general
atmosphere is very pleasant.

Have had no issues with the nursery at all, I’ve had two children attend and third to be starting in the following year. All the staff here are really good with the kids and I love hearing about my little lens day as he tells me everything. They let you know on the app what’s going on, reports, the
daily activity and pictures too! If you had any concerns they will reassure you straight away and help you out.

Review from Gemma R (Mother of Child) published on 13 January 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has progressed through all the levels and now in the preschool group, prior to starting school in September (all being well).
I can therefore recommend to children of all age groups, from the baby room upwards.
I can say that my daughter has always been looked after according to her own
needs, and my fears that she would not eat or sleep were groundless and I am told by her that the food she gets at nursery is wonderful which is high praise for such a fussy eater!
The staff are lovely and my daughter has loved all her carers and always speaks about her carers in glowing terms and following the COVID reopening could not wait to go back.
We also have a great app that shows photos and gives though the day updates which is so reassuring to check all is well, and lovely learning observations too.


Great nursery and I highly recommend!

Staff are good. It's a good place, but I think they could do better with the food they offer the kids. We pay a lot of money but the food the kids eat is not up to the Standard or expectation. I also don’t like the fact that kids with runny noses are left like that, this was before the covid when we
could go inside and see other kids like that. As for now, I’m not sure if they do wipe the kid's noses.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started his social life from this nursery. He started his afternoon sessions from last year and gradually increased to whole day sessions. Words are not enough to explain how good this nursery was. My son was lacking his social smile until he joined this nursery and he is always happy to go there.
I extremely like the short feedback of the day from his nurses, when I come to collect him. I will recommend anyone to this nursery.

My child has been attending preschool since January and it has been brilliant. It’s in a convenient area for ourselves and staff are always welcoming and helpful. It is always clean and when we go to pick our child up they are always doing fun looking activities and all of the children always look happy
and content to be there. Would highly recommend.

My daughter has been at the nursery since May 2014. The settling in period was managed very well by her key worker and she quickly adapted to being away from home and attending the nursery. The staff and management are approachable and have dealt with issues in a satisfactory manner.

Lovely nursery, with lovely, understanding and welcoming staff. Leaving our daughter at nursery for the first time we were quite apprehensive, but we were offered excellent settling in sessions and our daughters key person even came to visit us at home to see our home environment and get an idea of
what our daughter liked to do, what her favourite toys were etc.
The team at the nursery put us completely at ease and have supported us settling our daughter in. Great communication and our daughter now enjoys her nursery sessions and really loves the nursery workers who care for her. Also a perfect purpose built environment with lots of space and a brilliant outdoor area.

My son has been attending this nursery since he was 8 months and the care he has received it truly outstanding. He is now 2 and a confident and bright young lad. He loves nursery and has a special bond with his key worker. The staff at the nursery are extremely supportive and provide a nurturing environment
for the children. The children are offered consistent snacks along with breakfast, lunch and tea. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.885)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.885) out of 10 for St George's Nursery (Oadby) 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.885 for St George's Nursery (Oadby) is calculated as follows: ( (272 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 305 Ratings = 4.885
  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 St George's Nursery (Oadby) is based on 26 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 84 number of registered child places is 16.8, which has been reached with 26 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.
