My son has attended Meadows since he was 7 months old and is currently in preschool at Meadows. Over the last few years I have found all the team at meadows to be amazing they all go above and beyond. The care and dedication to the children is amazing, and the communication with the parents is great.
I would definitely recommend Meadows to other parents.

My little boy started at Meadows Nursery in June 2025. This is my first time dealing with nursery funding and the paperwork associated with that, which I found incredibly daunting! The staff at the nursery were so helpful, each time I called they were more than happy to help with my enquiries. When
my little boy started in the baby room, the staff were and continue to be great! I love the regular updates we get on the app. My little boy has settled in well and he is happy to be passed over in the mornings, often reaching out for me to pass him over to the member staff who greets us at the door. This makes me feel so relieved. Even the members of staff who don't work in the baby room know my little boy and will often share updates when I go to collect him. It feels very personable. Our experience has been very positive. I cannot thank everybody at the nursery enough.

Our little one joined meadow nursery in September 2025 and it has been a great experience so far. Our little one always comes home with a smile which is certainly down to the staff making him feel so comfortable and building a fantastic relationship already. The nursery is always clean, communication
through the app is great and staff are always so friendly. The staff in the baby room always ensure that you have the information you need and clearly work so hard to enhance the experience for all the children in their care. We are provided with photos of his activities as well as staff being available at the end of the day for any updates. We are so glad we chose meadow nursery!

Review from Shilpa J (Mother of Child) published on 2 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little one has been going to Meadows Nursery since the age of 2. The beginning was a very difficult phase for her, as she was emotionally attached to me, but with the care and support of the wonderful teachers and staff, she soon settled in beautifully. Now she looks forward to going to nursery every
single day without any fuss.


Over this one year, I've seen such amazing growth in her. She has improved her communication skills, cognitive development, and vocabulary in English (which is not her first language). She has also learnt to express her feelings and emotions so well. With their constant support, even toilet training became a smooth journey for us.


She will carry with her many special memories from these early days, and I know she will miss her time here. Thank you to the entire team at Meadows Nursery for nurturing her with such warmth, patience, and love.

Our eldest daughter started here in January 24 and has come on leaps and bounds. She loves coming to nursery to see her friends and the nursery staff.


Our youngest daughter only started a few weeks ago but with the supportive and caring team in the baby room she has adapted really well.


All

the staff are always really friendly and it's clear that they love all the children. They go out of their way to let you know how the children have been throughout the day.


Would highly recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking!

My little boy has Attended Meadow for almost 2 years and we love it! He loves coming to nursery and always has the best time. The staff are so amazing and always welcome him into the room full of smiles. The level of care and attention that goes into the activities within the room and keeping the parents
updated is unmatched! His progression has been incredible to see whilst he's been at Meadow. My little boy can't wait to tell us all about what he has done with his day at nursery and we love to hear all about it, couldn't recommend them enough.

For anyone considering this nursery, you will not be let down. From management down to room staff, they are amazing and go above and beyond for our little boy. We've all built up some great relationships from the baby room and going into the preschool. The room leader of toddler 2's is incredible with
our boy and he's come on leaps and bounds but I also want to mention the whole room staff are amazing! We are excited to start pre-school in January with the room leader there as equally our little boy has an amazing bond with him already. MiChild do really pride themselves with the staff they hire and the care is amazing. 10/10 thank you once again for welcoming and helping our boy.

We sent our child to school and she was a little under the weather, they took amazing care of her all day and around 3ish she took a dip and the ladies spotted it immediately and rang me. I took her to the walk-in and got her seen.
We are so grateful to the women who work there, their work and care
show and we are happy our child is cared about and loved. Thank you all.

The nursery and all the staff are amazing. My toddler cries every morning at drop off and there's always someone there to pick him up and give him a cuddle, which makes it easier leaving him. One of the staff is brilliant with him and he's even started calling him his friend and although he is not in
the baby room with another staff member anymore, he still talks about her all the time and loves getting to see her on the odd occasion.

My little girl started at Meadows due to her old nursery shutting down. As a parent I was so nervous and scared for her but the whole team made is so easy for us to both feel settled, they go above and beyond for the children and also support the parents and extended family. My little girl has come
on so much and you can feel the love as soon as you enter the building. I get updated throughout the day in every detail to what she has eaten, from her nappy changes to what time she goes to sleep and wakes up. I couldn't thank the team at Meadows enough, she has recently moved into the next room and they ensured a smooth transition for my daughter. Thank you, Meadows.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have 4 children all of which have attended private nursery at some point and this is by far the best one I've experienced. My daughter is absolutely thriving. She's been here now for almost 3 months and settled in in less than a week, loves going and gets excited every night before bed when we talk
about going to nursery the next day.
The staff are all friendly, kind and always prepared to help with any queries or even just for a chat about your little one.
The teamwork among the staff members also seems really on point. And management are continuously implementing new things to improve all aspects of the nursery and ensure parents/carers are kept up to date with these changes.
It's just a genuinely friendly and welcoming place to be and I couldn't be happier I chose it for my daughter.

Pre-school at Meadow are absolutely fantastic, they are all so caring and lovely. My little girl just loves going. I can't thank one of the staff enough enough for taking her under his wing. They are all absolutely brilliant in there and the girls from the baby room are all brilliant, my other little
girl started at 4 months and I couldn't have felt more relaxed leaving her with the girls in the room, they are all so lovely.
I can't recommend Meadow Nursery enough.

I just wanted to send a little thank you message to the whole team. To say we were anxious for our son to start nursery is an understatement, but the care and support we received made it such a smooth transition.
We arrived for our play sessions with such a warm welcome from the manager and the baby
room team. The team made sure both my son and mummy felt comfortable and really took the time to get to know him. From one of the staff singing his favourite boy band song to make him giggle and reading him stories to another staff member adding ramps to every surface for his cars to roll down and plane spotting with him in the garden, my son was so engaged that mummy could sneak away with no tears.
On his play sessions and first day, we received regular updates on the app, which was so reassuring. At collection, the staff gave such a thorough handover, which highlighted all the time and care given to my son throughout his session.
We're so pleased we chose Meadow for our son and know he will thrive in such a nurturing environment.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.971)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.971) out of 10 for Meadow Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 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 4.971 for Meadow Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (302 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 311 Ratings = 4.971
  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 Meadow Nursery 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.
