Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.
Reply from Alice Walsh, Manager at Meadow NurseryThank you so much for your lovely review! We really appreciate the time you have taken to share your experience, and we're so happy you are loving your time at Meadow.

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.
Reply from Alice Walsh, Manager at Meadow NurseryThank you so much for your kind words! We are so glad you are happy at Meadow.

Review from A C (Mother of Child) published on 5 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
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.
Reply from Alice Walsh, Manager at Meadow NurseryThank you so much for this lovely review! I am so glad we could help reassure both you and your little one, on their first day!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The preschool team always go above and beyond for my son. The communication is amazing with all the preschool team. And my son's key worker regularly keeps me updated on what he's up to. No matter who is present when I collect him they give me a detailed account of his day. He's developed so much since
starting preschool with his confidence, speech and development. I would recommend the nursery to anyone and both my children have attended meadows.
Reply from Alice Walsh, Manager at Meadow NurseryThank you! Means so much to hear these lovely words! The Preschool team are thrilled with your lovely comments.

Since my Grandson has started at Meadows, I have been so impressed with the entire setting. Security is enhanced, as you ring the bell to gain entry, you are always welcomed with a smile and polite staff.
When I go into my Grandson's room, the children are always engaged in an activity. I have even
been sung to, which I joined in with wholeheartedly.
I always get an informed handover, including food, sleep and toileting. I honestly can not praise the whole setting enough. Without a doubt, this is a nursery which has each and every child's well-being, security and happiness at the forefront of every day. I must also add the staff are so lovely, friendly and welcoming. I wish I could stay every time!
Thank you Meadows. I love collecting my Grandson.

My Grandson is 22 months old. The nursery quickly identified some development issues and requested the help from other professionals. Who came into the nursery and assessed him. Set some strategies. The nursery shared the information with me so I can use the strategies at home as well as at nursery.
He
is making great progress. He loves going to nursery. The staff are very attentive to the children and meet their individual needs. I am very happy with them and would highly recommend this nursery.

My daughter has attended Meadow now for almost two years and I cannot recommend it enough, all the staff have played such a huge part in my daughter's development and she loves them all like family. Never have we once had any issues or problems, she absolutely loves going in. She's currently in Preschool
and the staff really go the extra mile and have done in all areas of the nursery. I now have many friends and family that take their children to the nursery too and will be forever grateful for how they've helped my daughter grow up into the little girl she is today we will be so sad to leave for school in September. Thank you to all at Meadow.

My daughter has been attending meadow for almost a year, and we have had brilliant experiences so far in both the baby room and the toddler 2s room! The staff are so attentive and caring towards the children, they have always made contact if they have any concerns, and the app is an amazing way to stay
updated throughout the day. The food is amazing! My daughter can be picky but she always loves the food, especially dessert! The manager is lovely, she always tries her best to accommodate my daughter if I need her squeezing in for an extra day, and is always friendly and approachable! I have no bad words to say about Meadow, my daughter loves coming here and I am happy that I can go to work knowing that she is safe, clean and cared for the way she would be at home!

My son started at the beginning of December and he is loving it, he's coming on in leaps and bounds and the staff are so good with him. I love the app that tracks everything so I can see what he is eating etc throughout the day. I feel so relieved that he is in such great hands whilst I'm at work. So
glad I chose meadow nursery 100% the best choice!

Fantastic nursery. My daughter has attended for just over a year now and I have received excellent support for her additional needs.
I really don't know what I would have done without their extra support.
Many thanks.

Just want to thank all the team at Meadow Nursery for helping our shy little boy settle in. They have gone above and beyond to provide him with everything he needs and to reassure us as parents he's okay when morning drop-offs are hard. The communication with everyone at Meadow is very excellent. Thank
you.

They are so kind, attentive and caring. I couldn't ask for a better group of people who care for my little boy. He's been going there nearly two years and never once have I had any issues. The children always seem so happy and there's always so much going on for them. I would highly recommend this nursery
as a first-time parent. I was nervous choosing a nursery but I'm so glad I chose this one. Thank you girls, you're all absolutely amazing.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.969)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.969) 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.969 for Meadow Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (313 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 323 Ratings = 4.969
  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 27 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 27 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.
