Excellent Nursery. All staff are kind, caring and considerate. My son thoroughly enjoys his time at nursery and settled in very quickly. I have no hesitation recommending this nursery to anyone. Five stars.

Both my girls have attended this nursery and loved it, my third is about to start. The staff are brilliant and there is loads of outside space for them to run around in. It’s in a great setting with lots of nature around! It’s also had a great makeover recently!

My daughter started at Cherubs Ruddington in August 2020 at 11months. She has come on leaps and bounds since starting. Not long after her first sessions, she was able to spoon-feed herself, crawl and was saying her first words. It's lovely to see the bond between her and the staff. It's very clear that
she enjoys her days. Although we cannot enter the nursery in the current climate we are informed via the parent's Facebook page and app what the children have been up to. My husband and I are extremely happy with our choice of childcare setting for our child.

This is a lovely nursery. It has thrived under its new ownership and we feel really happy with the way they have updated the setting. The core staff have remained much the same in the five years we have been using the nursery and they are wonderful. We would highly recommend Cherubs Ruddington.

Review from Gunars S (Father of Child) published on 4 November 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little man everyday runs to the door to get the temperature scan done and to get going for the day with Cherubs. He really enjoys time there and a big proof of it is piles of photos Cherubs is providing, where he is always busy and a happy boy. Staff is ensuring kids are always involved in various
development activities, they are also trying their best to use the app to communicate with parents regards any progress made. Staff is always listening, helpful and ensures any reasonable requests from parents are followed.

Review from Catherine K (Mother of Child) published on 4 November 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a fantastic nursery. My daughter really enjoys going and she loves the staff who are always so happy, friendly and caring. I am kept well informed both from speaking to staff when dropping off/picking up and through receiving daily diaries which tell me what my daughter has eaten, when she has
slept, the activities she has done and photos of her during the day. I used childminders with my previous children because I wasn’t a fan of nurseries but Cherubs Ruddington has definitely altered my view on nurseries and I am so pleased that I chose to send my daughter there. I would highly recommend them.

Such a lovely, cozy, homely nursery. The girls are so welcoming 0 my little girl loves them. Always something (dancing, painting, cooking, etc) going on.
The staff are always available to have a chat and inform you about your little one's day.
It's a little gem!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.820)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.820) out of 10 for Cherubs Ruddington is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.820 for Cherubs Ruddington is calculated as follows: ( (193 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 228 Ratings = 4.82
  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 Cherubs Ruddington is based on 19 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 19 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.

Job Title: Area Manager Joined: 2016

Hello, I'm Kayley - Area Manager for Cherubs Ruddington. A career in childcare is something I have always wanted to pursue. In 2014, I took the plunge and started my journey with Cherubs Nurseries - I’ve never looked back! I started as a student and worked my way up to Assistant Manager at Cherubs Executive House before being promoted to Nursery Manager at Cherubs Ruddington in 2021. I have had the pleasure of both supporting and being based at other nurseries within Cherubs Nurseries, which has given me invaluable experience. I also support our Apprentices through their Training Academy journey, which gives me great pride in seeing them succeed and flourish into wonderful knowledgeable Early Years Educators.
