Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The staff are lovely and my child seems to have a good relationship with the key workers. I do wish that the nursery would send a bit more information about my child to me through the app or email though. When my child first started, we were told that there would be updates via the app every 2 weeks
minimum but after almost a full year I've still not received a single update other than the handover at the door! My child seems happy at the nursery and she has flourished since starting there. Her development has come on leaps and bounds!

My son has attended for 15 months and he absolutely loves it. The main thing he loves about nursery are the staff themselves. On our way home each day he tells me the names of all the staff he’s seen that day. Nursery have gone above and beyond to make sure my little boy is included in everything they
do. For example at a jubilee celebration when there was a buffet that he couldn’t eat due to his allergies - I thought they might have a separate sandwich for him but rather than making him feel different in a negative way the cook made him a whole box of safe options and made him feel extra loved instead! My son has multiple allergies and there’s never been a single slip up where he’s been served something he shouldn’t have or managed to get another child’s food as they manage this so well. He’s learnt so much from nursery and comes home singing a new song most weeks that they’ve been singing. I’m fortunate that my son is only almost 2, so he has a few more years to spend here!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My eldest son had attended this nursery since September 2020 until July 2022 and he has absolutely loved every second of it. Staff have been so encouraging with his development. He was behind in quite a few areas, especially his speech. Since he has attended he has come on by miles. Staff are amazing
and very approachable both for my son but also general day by day updates. Even provided home pack activities for my son when he was off due to an injury ensuring that he didn't miss out on anything, which my son was so happy about. Couldn't have picked a better nursery to take care of my child. Which is why I have now since started sending my youngest child as I have 100% confidence in their abilities to further the children's development. I 100% will be recommending this nursery to my friends and family.

I currently have both my children attending Welcome Nurseries @ Padgate, my eldest is 4yrs and has attended since she was 9 months old. She absolutely loves it, and I wouldn’t of chosen anywhere else for my youngest who has recently started there. Staff are warm, friendly, knowledgable and brilliant
with the children. I found that this really helped them to settle in and to enjoy going back each day. The environment is spacious and I love the large outdoor area, my eldest just loves the space available to play in. Food is healthy and the cook is amazing when providing a variety of snacks and meals which my children always eat. Management team are great and very approachable, I know if I have a question or query about anything they will be happy to help straight away.

My daughter has been going from 9 months old, the baby room was very good with lots of sensory play and adapting to her when she started to walk. As she's moved up through the nursery they do lots of play learning and also help with any concerns that I have had and supported me. I feel she has always
been well looked after at nursery as if they were one of their own. I'm sad that this is an end of an era but so happy I chose this nursery, I've watched my little one blossom into a very confident clever little girl and would highly recommend all the staff and the nursery.

We absolutely love this nursery. The staff are very polite and welcoming. My daughter has learnt so much over the past few months since starting nursery. I always feel confident she is being well looked after when I drop her off and the staff always have time to talk about her day when I collect her.
The nursery puts on different events to involve the parents and their children. This is greatly appreciated and so lovely to be able to see her interacting with the other adults and children in the setting. Thank you!

My daughter has been here for nearly three years and loves going, she comes home each time with something new to show and tell me. The staff are amazing, very caring and give each child the time they need. The food is different every day and always balanced. I recommend this nursery very highly and
my daughter will be very sad to leave in September.

My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery which is the greatest testament as to the standard and quality of Birch Grove Day Nursery Ltd. She is thriving in every way and I honestly believe that we wouldn’t be able to achieve that, or at least certainly not to the same level, without the input of
the nursery. Thanks to all of the staff and most notably her key worker for shaping her into the happy little character that she is.

Amazing nursery. Both my boys go there, one being disabled and the nursery go above and beyond to accommodate. They both love going into nursery and run in every morning. I’ll be really sad when my eldest leaves for school this year.

My son has been at nursery since he was 8 months old. He absolutely loves to be in there. Staff are amazing, knowledgeable, kind, funny and always happy to help. I have never come across any that didn't have time for me. They have genuine interest if you need to talk to them. My son learned so much
and teachers make learning so fun. He has grown up into a confident, smart and kind little boy who is ready for reception in September. We both will miss the lovely staff and atmosphere from Birch Grove but I can truly and honestly say that they have made him ready for this big next chapter of his life.

Birch Grove Day Nursery has always been a great place for my daughter. She started when she was 10 months old and the staff were amazing, kind, friendly and gave lots of support. My daughter loves her friends and staff at nursery and is now in the preschool group loving all the activities. Love the
nursery and appreciate all the care and attention the staff give each child.

Wow! Such a welcoming environment for both the children and the parents. Both my boys settled quickly and enjoy going to the setting. All staff are friendly, helpful and supportive. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I am confident that my boys are in excellent care when I leave them. I would recommend

My son has been at Birch Grove since he was a baby.
He has progressed marvellously. This all down to the staff who have been very supportive and professional.
My son has loved being at Birch Grove, it's played a big part in his development.
Soon he will be leaving to go to reception at his new school
and he will miss all the wonderful staff greatly.
And so will I.
Thank you for all your great support and help over the years, we will miss each and every one of you!

Great staff, friendly atmosphere. Our son started this nursery crying every day at drop off but by the end, he loved going and made a few friends. Staff worked with us to potty train. Homework was given to boost learning, great staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son joined Birch Grove just under 2 years ago, aged 2.5 years. He was very shy, nervous and quiet outside of his comfort zone.


The staff at Birch Grove took on his needs with kindness, patience and compassion. He soon came out of his shell and was allowed to do so at his own pace whilst also

receiving gentle encouragement.


Big plus points for us have been the large and well-maintained garden, outside areas and play equipment. Inside there are lots of little areas for different activities like role play, IT, reading etc. The age groups are taken to their own areas to do age-appropriate learning activities.


Staff are knowledgeable, friendly, polite and courteous. It is clear that everyone who works there is there because they love their job. As a parent I have never worried about leaving my son in their care, it is undoubtedly safe and well managed. I have felt supported and have had a lovely relationship with both my child's key workers.


I highly recommend Birch Grove.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.944)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.944) out of 10 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.944 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate is calculated as follows: ( (205 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.944
  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 Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Padgate is based on 18 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 18 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.
