All the staff at Greengables Day Nursery are very friendly and helpful. They really helped my child settle in when she moved due to the pandemic. She has flourished at this preschool with the help of the staff. They have encouraged her to do the things she loves and supported and guided her with things
she has found hard to learn. I would recommend this preschool to any parent who wants a safe, loving environment for their child to be happy and learn in, they have made sure my child is ready for reception and excited to move on. Thank you to all the staff for helping my child on her journey.

We have used the nursery for both our children as when we had our tour, there was no doubt that this was a place our children would love. Throughout their time at the nursery, the staff have been amazing and we are so grateful for their help and support in getting our children to flourish. We are sad
that it is now time for the second to leave but would highly recommend this setting to anyone!

I am so pleased I picked Greengables as the nursery for our daughter. She started when she was only 10-months-old and she loves it. The team are great at keeping me updated and letting me know how she’s got on every day. This week I had the opportunity to pick her up earlier than normal and I was able
to enter her room and watch her without her noticing. She was so content, happy and relaxed, listening to storytime, it was almost a shame to bring her home. Thank you in particular to the team in the Caterpillar room, you have really eased any initial worries I had about leaving my precious little one when I went back to work. Thank you Greengables, would recommend to anyone.

I think I am honestly Greengables Owlsmoor number one fan! This nursery is the best thing to have ever happened to my 17-month-old son. I have seen how he has developed as a direct result of the care and personal investment by the staff in ladybirds, all the teacher friends and Greengables staff. My
little one was welcomed from day one and he is always so happy to be at school. He has fond attachments with many of the staff at Greengables and that is reassuring for us as parents to know our little one is happy, independent and confident. I cannot express enough how thankful we are for the kindness and support they have shown towards his development and character building. Truly excellent school.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the staff at Greengables, they have been an absolute pleasure to deal with. But more importantly, our 2-year-old son has been made very welcome in his first few weeks of nursery. He has been a bit shy after not spending much time with other children during
the multiple lockdowns etc. and the staff have done a fantastic job at building his confidence and getting him involved in activities and mixing with the other kids. He always has a big smile on his face when we go to pick him up which is obviously lovely to see.

Constantly creating, endless nurturing and as ever professional! Examples for each have been consistent since our warm welcome and throughout. Given the current circumstances with a pandemic, we could not be happier with the response from the team in an environment that has been suitably adapted. Evidence
of our children's growth is often complemented by small gems we receive as updates throughout our day (telephone application). Safe to say our children are thriving in a great setting. It's easy to be biassed towards our key carers but our thanks are extended to all staff members. We really couldn't ask for more from Greengables.

Greengables has been a very positive experience for our daughter. She is very engaged, entertained and cared for. She has made lots of special connections with her teachers and other children. We are very pleased with the standard of care our daughter receives.

Greengables has always been fantastic with our son, and we have always felt safe and confident leaving him the girls care. He always comes home smiling, talking about his teachers, which makes us feel at peace knowing he's had a good day. We get good updates through the app on what he's been up to.
Definitely would recommend this nursery.

My 2-year-old son has been attending Greengables for 4 months now and is thoroughly enjoying his time there. It's taking a while for him to settle at drop off, we still have tears but the staff are very patient and understanding and he calms very quickly once in the room. In the months he has been attending,
I've seen him learn new words and start to learn actions to songs, and develop his ways of communication. The covid protocols at the nursery are excellent and the communication to and from the nursery is very good. I would highly recommend Greengables to anyone.

This is an amazing nursery and my daughter loves it. The staff are amazing and have been so helpful over the last few months. I love that they make healthy food on-site for all the kids and are always changing the toys and learning so there's always something new for my daughter to play with and learn.
The app is great, it's the highlight to my day when I get photos and updates whilst at work which show what she is getting up to with her friends!

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.
