My daughter has been in this nursery since she was one and a half years old. She has been progressing and learning so much from this nursery. She loves it so much that we still keep her in this nursery even though we moved out of the West Drayton area.
I am glad I chose this nursery and would like
to say thank you to all the teachers for being so professional and amazing.

My two youngest children attend the Nursery and I couldn't be happier with how they are cared for.
The staff are amazing - friendly, transparent and have great relationships with the children.
I love that I can see what they have done through the app which they regularly update and upload pictures
to!
I would recommend this nursery to anyone and I always bang on about how grateful I am that my babies have a place there.

First the staff, they are friendly and welcoming that was the first impression I received from them. They are good with the children and all the children receive the same attention from their teacher. Well organised and communicate effectively when needed. My child has been happier attending there.

My little one has been here since June 2022 (10 months old) and has thrived, shes loves it all the staff and has made some really lovely friends along the way. Always happy to go in when I drop her off and tell me about her day when I pick her up, they go above and beyond here and I will always recommend
them to anyone looking for a nursery in the area. I never have to worry about the food as it's always fresh and cooked on site and she's always learning something new. One very happy mum.

Really helpful and welcoming staff. My daughter got settled very well after a few days. Absolutely loves all of her carers, happy to come to nursery every day and leaves still giggling. The nursery provides a nutritious well-balanced diet and she eats a variety of meals throughout the day. She receives
great attention, both in group and at individual playtime, improved her social skills and her development has skyrocketed since she joined a couple of months ago.

Both of my kids go to West Drayton Day Nursery and really enjoy it. As a mum, you feel guilty about sending them to nursery for a long day but I can see that the staff really care about my kids and have built bonds with both of them. You can keep up to date on the app and particularly when I want to
find out how my youngest is doing the staff are always very responsive in providing updates. I have had no issues with any of the staff over the past 2-3 years and I can't thank them enough for taking good care of my children.

My son has been going for two years (including when the nursery was called Happy Tree before), we've been very happy with the level of care. The staff are all lovely, attentive and caring and they do lots of nice activities with kids. And the menus are varied and healthy which is something particularly
important to us too.

I’ve visited many nurseries but I hadn’t felt that welcoming in any other nursery. The staff and children looked so happy.
The settling-in was quick and the staff made it feel stress-free. Daily feedback is great, they really care about children’s learning and development.
I feel so lucky to leave
my daughter in such capable and warm hands!

My daughter joined the nursery this September and she is having a great journey so far. All the staff members are very efficient and know exactly what is the need of a child. She has grown personally and started doing things by her own. She enjoys her stay at the nursery. We get regular updates of her
daily activities and detailed observation reports periodically. I would strongly recommend the West Drayton Nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.870)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.870) out of 10 for West Drayton Day Nursery 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 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.870 for West Drayton Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (438 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 500 Ratings = 4.87
  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 West Drayton Day Nursery is based on 42 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 97 number of registered child places is 19.4, which has been reached with 42 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.
