The team are absolutely fantastic - they've made not only our daughter feel comfortable and happy, but us as parents too. Everyone is always smiling, creating such a warm, welcoming environment. It's the perfect balance of care, fun, and development, and we couldn't be happier with the support and positivity
they bring every day.

My child hasn't been at this nursery very long but since she started she has developed so much (some big and some small) and I think this is due to the wonderful environment, created by the lovely staff. I'm so pleased she is at this nursery and am thankful for the lovely nursery staff that keep us
updated with key moments, pictures and constantly keep us informed and in the loop.

Both our boys have attended this nursery, with our eldest leaving last year, and our youngest currently in pre-school.
Greengables has helped both boys develop numerous skills with their dedicated team, all whilst the boys come home and always want to tell us about their day in a happy and enthusiastic
manner.
The food appears to be excellent (both boys eat most of it - despite one being very fussy).
I can't imagine sending our boys to any other nursery!

Amazing journey for my son, the staff from the baby room all the way up to pre-school have been superb. He's thoroughly enjoyed his time there, learnt so much and is more than ready for his next step into school. Would highly recommend Greengables, location, staff, setting all exactly what you want!

Our daughter started at the nursery in the Caterpillar room at 11 months old. Right from the start, we felt completely at ease leaving her in the care of the warm, attentive staff who clearly loved her and took great care of her. Since then, she has transitioned seamlessly through the various rooms
and each transition has been positive. Our daughter has developed so much; she's confident and a sassy 3 year old who thrives in the setting. The staff are welcoming, environment is nurturing and most importantly daughter loves it. Each room is filled with engaging, age-appropriate activities and the communication with parents is excellent. We highly recommend this nursery to any parents looking for a supportive, enriching setting for their child.

As a first time parent I was really anxious about my child starting nursery but the whole experience with Greengables has so far been amazing. The staff are all lovely and seem to know my son and understand his needs so well. They've been really proactive at trying to link in with outside agencies to
help support his development as best as possible. I always feel comfortable dropping him off for the day and know that he'll be well cared for, getting updates and photos through the app is also lovely to receive.

Absolutely fantastic nursery, with wonderful staff who go above and beyond. A friendly and nurturing environment that helps children blossom.
Our son who has now left the nursery formed lovely friendships and loves going back to visit when picking up his siblings. He formed a special friendship with
a staff member and still asks about her. Our baby who has never been left until starting nursery absolutely loves the setting and is always happy/ smiling at pick up. As a mum who worries about leaving him, I feel so confident that he is left in great care with staff that really care.
Our daughter who will shortly be moving to Pre - School has learnt so much since attending and again has formed lovely friendships.
10/10 would highly recommend this outstanding nursery!

I cannot thank Greengables enough for the wonderful experience, care and education they've provided both my daughter, who has graduated and my son, who continues to thrive there.
All of the staff are incredibly loving and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment where my children have
and continue to feel safe and excited to attend. They have both developed important social skills through fun and engaging activities. My daughter has built lasting friendships that have continued through her transition to school. I love hearing about all the adventures and new things learnt each day - from fun arts and crafts to engaging storytelling sessions. The communication from the nursery is excellent, keeping me informed about progress and daily routines.
I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a place for their little ones to be happy, content, and grow!

I am an anxious first time mum and I cannot fault Greengables Day Nursery. They have made me feel so at ease. My little boy has only been attending for 4 months and in his short time he has learnt so much. The staff are wonderful, friendly, caring and welcoming. Trust was a big thing for me when you
are leaving your little one's and I feel so comfortable and love the updates on the app to see how much fun he is having. This is also provides me as a parent with reassurance. When I first visited Greengables, I just instantly knew I wanted my little boy to go here. The facilities are great, clean and my little boy's confidence has grown in the short space he has attended. I can't wait to watch him grow and develop at Greengables.

My son (16m) currently attends Greengables Day Nursery.
He has developed so much in the short time he has been attending (joined in September 2024).
The staff will give regular updates on progress and what they are working on which is great for peace of mind. There is also an app where you can see
how your child is doing each day for meals, sleep and nappies.
Absolutely recommend - the nursery is fantastic.

Greengables is a wonderful nursery and we have never had anything to complain about. Our two sons attended until they went to school, our youngest started as a baby and moved through each room. The staff are so kind and caring, the food and range of activities and facilities are excellent and both boys
went to school very very well prepared for their next chapter. Thank you Greengables, we miss you all!

My little boy went to Greengables for just over 2 years.
My little boy's confidence, speech and character soared once he started. Every single member of staff is lovely and friendly and knows every child by name and makes them feel welcome and comfortable daily, the setting ensured he was well prepared
for school.
I would certainly recommend this nursery and use this nursery again.

I couldn't recommend a better nursery! Both of my children have gone through every room at Greengables, and over the past six years, it truly became part of our family. Saying goodbye was incredibly difficult- it felt like the end of an era.
The staff are warm, and caring, and always go above and beyond
to accommodate the children's needs. The setting is always clean and beautifully maintained, and the facilities are outstanding. The variety of activities they offer keeps the children engaged and excited to learn.
The dedication and hard work of the entire team are so evident. Thank you for taking such great care of my children and equipping them with the skills they need to thrive in the next chapter of their lives!

Greengables has been a really supportive, fun and friendly setting for my son throughout his 3 years there. He built strong relationships with his teachers and made friendships that have continued after nursery.
In our experience, the staff are caring and knowledgeable and clearly take an interest
in each child as an individual. The rooms are fresh and well-maintained and the activities are engaging.
We really like the community feel of the nursery, the charity fundraising and events help create that.

Greengables are a fantastic nursery for our daughter. She settled in quickly, the staff are all lovely and welcoming, she has gained confidence and has a brilliant time at nursery. We love the updates we get on her development and snapshots of her days in nursery - it's so reassuring and heartwarming
to see her having fun and exploring. We couldn't be happier with our choice for her childcare.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.969)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.969) out of 10 for Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor) 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor) is calculated as follows: ( (279 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 288 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 Greengables Day Nursery (Owlsmoor) is based on 24 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 89 number of registered child places is 17.8, which has been reached with 24 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.
