Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has absolutely loved going to Mulberry Bush in Walmersley. From the very beginning, I've felt so comfortable and reassured leaving him with the wonderful staff. They are incredibly caring, kind, and genuinely take the time to get to know each child as an individual. It's clear how much
they love what they do, and it really shows in the warm, nurturing environment they create. My little boy has thrived there and made so many happy memories and friends. We will all miss it.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mulberry Bush Walmersley has been a great nursery for our daughter. She was at a smaller nursery for 2 years then moved to Mulberry for Pre-school. We felt like Mulberry was a hybrid between school and a nursery environment for little ones. This is particularly apparent with their Pre-School Academy
which is focused on preparing them for starting school. My daughter felt secure and needs met by the nursery staff. I'd do the same again with our baby when he's about 2 years old. As a working Mum, I appreciated the Nursery's flexibility too. Overall I'm glad that we sent her there and grateful for the staff who looked after her.

It is emotional to write this, because between my two sons, Mulberry Bush Walmersley has been a part of our lives for the best part of 9 years now. This platform won't allow me to write names, but to the manager that we have dealt with from day one, you are running the most incredible nursery that any
parent could dream of. Your attention to detail, with regards to safety, education, creativity, individuality, fun, has far surpassed mine and my husbands expectations, year on year. There isn't another nursery to match you. Our son will leave at the end of August, and we cannot thank you enough for the wonderful environment that you have created for our two sons. They were in the best hands possible with you. And we will miss you and your team dearly. Thank you for everything .

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Mulberry Bush Walmersley! From the very first visit, we felt completely at ease leaving our child in the care of such a warm and dedicated team. The staff are incredibly nurturing and genuinely passionate about what they do - they take the time to understand
each child's personality and needs, and it shows in how confident and happy our little one has become.
The setting is clean, bright, and full of engaging activities. There's a fantastic balance of free play, structured learning, and outdoor time, which has really supported our child's development and independence. The team communicates regularly with updates and photos, which we absolutely love - it's so reassuring to see our child thriving and having fun.
The girls and staff have all been wonderful, and my son has had an amazing four years there. They've been incredibly supportive, especially during the transition through toilet training, offering helpful advice and best practices.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.354)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.354) out of 10 for Mulberry Bush Nursery Walmersley is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 4 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 4.729 for Mulberry Bush Nursery Walmersley is calculated as follows: ( (36 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.729
  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 3.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mulberry Bush Nursery Walmersley is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.25
  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.
