Review from Caleb K (Father of Child) published on 13 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having been too and looked at other nurseries, nothing has felt more, home like than this one, the warm presence of staff is very noticeable.
After viewing the nursery and speaking with staff it felt like Nonna's were running the nursery.


And leaving the the most precious thing in my world with

someone who feels like a grandmother just feels safe.


And any worries soon went away after collecting my little boy after his first day at Nursery, he was so happy and it was pure joy to find a place where he is happy.


Days have turned into weeks. Weeks have turned into months, and each day is the same, my little boy wants to be here, he's happy playing with toys and running around in a big garden.


Trying to get my Boy out of nursery is a little difficult he will run back in while I'm trying to walk out, he is happy here, and im happy he's doing well and meeting all his targets and development.


Highly Recommend

My family have been using Beech House for 16 years, I can't fault them. My nieces and nephew to start with before my son attended for 5 years before starting school, my daughter is currently there, starting at 9 months old and will stay there until she starts school. The staff and management are so
caring and helpful, they really become an extended family. They help work out any problems and they encourage and praise the kids to reach their full potential. I've always found it such a welcoming place. Would highly recommend it.

My child required additional support and I couldn't be more complimentary about the staff. They were so kind and helpful to our family when we needed it!
My child loved the food and has continued to ask for recipes from the nursery at home.

I have been using Beech House Nursery for several years and have a child there at present. I always make Beech House my preferred nursery for the children I look after. The staff and managers are amazing with both parents and children. All my children have settled very quickly due to the kindness and
nurture of staff. There is a huge garden for the children to play in. There is lots of structure, fun and learning each day.
The food is varied and healthy. Staff give full feedback on the children's
day at pick-up time. I cannot recommend Beech House Nursery enough.

Beech House Nursery is exceptional. All three of our kids have attended and are highly recommended. The nursery manager is exceptional and our interactions have only resulted in a positive experience. We have been involved with the nursery since 2016. The nursery has been superb and we have built some
great relationships with various members of staff.

I took my daughter to this nursery after being at another nursery and she came on leaps and bounds, Beech House Nursery is so clean and has a lot of safety in place and the staff are amazing, they are so caring and supportive of the children and the children always comes first. Now my son goes here
and is getting on so well, he absolutely loves his nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our child has attended the nursery since 11 months old (he's away to be 4!), and absolutely loves it. Beech House has a real family feel, the staff care for your child like they're their own. The warmth you get is so reassuring knowing that your child is safe and happy whilst at work. The app is great;
as it allows parents to see updates throughout the day. The staff ensure the needs of every child are achieved and if you ever have a query they jump right on the case until they have an answer for you. The staff are always coming up with creative and fun activities for the kids, managing to keep them engaged whether it's roaring sunshine or raining cats and dogs.
When our time comes to move on to school, we really will miss the Beech House family.

I've been using the nursery for the last 8 years and cannot fault it at all. The staff are all amazing, kind and inspiring. They do a fantastic all round job and both my children have loved attending.
The manager is a brilliant asset to the organisation, she's supportive and very approachable. The
team currently looking after my son is well bonded and as such provides a great atmosphere for the children.

The staff give plenty of feedback on the day and the app has helped to feel more involved. I couldn't feel more relaxed knowing my child is in a safe setting, in safe hands.

My child went to this superb nursery for almost a year, from January 2024 to December 2024. The staff are very friendly and doing a very good job there. If anything I needed to ask or know about how my child was doing they were always happy to talk to me about it. The management in the nursery were
just great, two lovely ladies. In general, I was very happy and pleased with Beach House Nursery and so was my boy. Thanks to everyone there. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for child care!

My son's been attending since he was 2 and is now nearly 5 and we have nothing but praise towards Beech House Nursery and all of the staff! I couldn't recommend this nursery enough. My son has busy days filled with activities that he enjoys, a huge garden that they use almost daily, close bonds with
staff and other children - staff and management communication is fantastic. The food options are great too.
I really wouldn't be able to find a negative thing to say - the nursery is an absolute credit to the manager. We'll definitely be sad when the time comes to leave Beech House behind and move on to school!

Beech House Nursery set my little one up for a bright future and great start in primary school. They encouraged her to explore her independence and confidence - which she would really struggle with. The staff went above and beyond with her and they've made a mark on her for life. Even more so, that
she still sings the songs she learned there, remembers her graduation, remembers the girls names and looks back on her time there with fond memories. She loved the outdoor play that was promoted - if your little one goes here - they will love the garden and what they do with the kids there.

Fabulous nursery and staff. Would have kept our daughter there if it hadn't been for a house move. Great memories whilst Beechhouse looked after our daughter for over two years. Highly recommend for anyone thinking about putting their child to nursery here.

My daughter attended Beech House from 6 months old until we moved house when she was 2 and it was no longer feasible to keep her there. The staff were amazing from the start, very supportive especially when we were trying to figure out our daughter's allergies. She was always excited to go to nursery
and didn't want to come home. It really felt like home from home which made it so much easier, especially as I didn't want her to go so young but the staff made the transition perfect. If we hadn't moved so far, we'd never have left, absolutely fantastic nursery and I always recommend them.

They did a lot for my daughter's development and learning. She was 2 and a half when she started and was there right through to her nursery graduation. Her speech was delayed due to COVID pandemic but when she started at the nursery her speech got so good. All the staff also had good communication with
me.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.973)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.973) out of 10 for Beech House 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.973 for Beech House Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (396 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 407 Ratings = 4.973
  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 Beech House Nursery is based on 34 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6, which has been reached with 34 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.
