Banana Moon Hatton is different to other nurseries in the area. Situated in three converted barns in a rural location and set in 6.5 acres, including fields, a paddock, an orchard, a tennis court and a vegetable plot, there is plenty of outdoor space to run around and have fun.

The team provides a safe and caring environment for children aged 3 months to 5 years, and is open from 7.30 am to 6.30 pm for 51 weeks of the year.

Banana Moon is able to accommodate 110 full-time children and able to offer sessions from half a day a week to five days a week.

The nursery is very close to the major road networks – the A46 and M40, and only minutes away from both Warwick Parkway and Hatton train stations for trains to London.

CCTV is installed in all rooms and there is a biometric fingerprint entry system, ensuring the safety of the children. The nursery offers two home-cooked hot meals each day, cooked on site by the talented nursery chef.

Staff are very experienced in Early Years Education and offer a very loving, stimulating home from home, in the most beautiful setting - come and see for yourself and visit Banana Moon Hatton.

We are delighted to have our daughter at Banana Moon Hatton, our child absolutely adores going to nursery and will miss it when she goes to school! I always feel that my child is safe, the staff are very professional and detail-orientated in ensuring the best care is provided.
I really appreciate
all the time that the staff give to talking about our child's development and the many fun extra activities that they put on for the children and parents - Halloween parties, summer fayres, Christmas performances and plenty of dressing up opportunities.
The paddock is by far the best outdoor space I have seen at a nursery and the children are out there multiple times a day unless it's very poor weather. It's been a real weight off my mind knowing how well our child is cared for in the week while we work.
Reply from Sophie Jackson, Manager at Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick)Thank you for your review. We will pass on your lovely comments to the staff team.

The nursery setting, facilities and staff are all excellent. They have made a huge effort in introducing Christmas themes to the children and put on a fantastic Christmas performance for children of all ages.
The children are passionately cared for and my daughter is thriving.
Reply from Sophie Jackson, Manager at Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick)Thank you for your kind words. We all thoroughly enjoyed the Christmas performance and all the children were brilliant!

We have a daughter in the babies’ room and a son in playschool. Both settled in immediately and are always happy and content at drop off/ pick up which is a great endorsement for the nursery.


We love how much outdoor space there is and how much time the children spend outdoors, in all weathers. The

chef cooks food that seems to be very popular. The phone is always answered promptly which I find reassuring. The manager and all the staff are approachable and respond to queries quickly.

This is our 2nd time using Banana Moon Day Nursery and it's as amazing as it was 1st time around. It's literally the best nursery around, with caring staff and gorgeous surroundings for the little people.
I think it says a lot when the same staff are still there 7 years later. I've been amazed that
they remembered our family and 1st son's time at Banana Moon 7 years on.
Our 2nd son is so happy and contented here too, it's just in a league of its own!

We just love Banana Moon Nursery Hatton! All of the staff are fantastic and really care for all of the children and the parents too.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the moment I stepped into Banana Moon I knew this was the right nursery for my son. Warm, inviting and caring was exactly the environment I wanted, and I found this and more. The staff have been fantastic, the outdoor space was a big sell after long lockdowns with the Covid restrictions, and on
our first visit, the home-cooked lunches being served looked fantastic. It's a big decision leaving your child in the care of others, but that decision has been made so much easier by the staff at the nursery and I know my son is safe and cared for, he has thrived whilst being there. I look forward to the updates on the app and it's nice for me to be able to talk to him about his day.

We visited Banana Moon when I was pregnant and despite being the only nursery we visited, we fell in love with it straight away. It has been the best decision we ever made - our son is so happy here and has developed so much since starting in September. The staff are all amazing and show such an interest
in what he likes and enjoys doing. The outdoor space is wonderful and gives our little boy the opportunity to interact with other children from different rooms whilst being in the fresh air.

I would highly recommend Banana Moon Hatton nursery. Our son is very well cared for and we never have any concerns about his welfare. He enjoys daily playtime in a large paddock, and healthy home-cooked meals and has formed strong bonds with staff and children. We are able to share his experiences through
the app which is updated with photos and information throughout the day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been going to Banana Moon since he was 9 months old, starting in ‘Under 2s’ and now in ‘Toddlers’ and I can honestly say it’s the best decision we made when going back to work full time. The peace of mind it gives us knowing he is happy, well cared for and learning lots on a daily basis is
invaluable. The food is amazing (we echo what others have written, he eats better than we do!). The staff are so caring, helpful and friendly, and his key workers in both rooms have been amazing. If you ask our son who his best friend is, he will say his key worker and another member of staff at nursery which I think is a testament to how much he enjoys nursery and their care.
We would thoroughly recommend Banana Moon Hatton!

We thoroughly enjoy Banana Moon, as do both my boys. We are relatively new starters and have been made to feel completely welcomed by everyone. All the staff we come into contact with know the boys, who their key workers are, and have been made to feel part of the family. The food is amazing (even for
my picky eater!), and both boys sleep well there (testament really!) … the activities and learning opportunities are amazing, and their approach to emotional well-being is perfect. Thank you, Team!!

Our son attends Banana Moon 4-days a week. It was difficult for me to let him go after maternity in lockdown and return to work full time, but Banana Moon made the whole experience so easy. Our little boy has developed so much over the last 6-months; his eating, walking and talking have come on in leaps
and bounds. We are constantly informed of changes through the app and find the day to day updates so reassuring when my husband and I are at work all day. We love the outdoor space - this was a big thing for us - we wanted him to be happy and at home outdoors. The range of activities he takes part in is mind-blowing to us; we really enjoy seeing the challenges they come up with each day for the children. Also, the range of food he eats is an absolute wonder - he eats better than us! All home-cooked and such a variety. Most mornings, you will find him at the front door with his nursery bag ready to go; we’re so happy he’s happy with you!

We are now on our second child with the nursery (our first now at school), and he is doing so well. He has recently moved up to the toddler room and is with a key worker he adores. We see photos throughout the day of the activities they are doing, and regular updates on what they have had for food etc.
Feedback at the end of each day is great, despite Covid restrictions. The grounds the nursery sits in are fabulous, and the kids are outside every day in all weathers bar storms, which I think is so good for them! The office staff are equally as great as room staff and always get back to you after enquiries. Thank you, Banana Moon.

The photographs help keep us in touch, and to see all the wonderful activities that you do with the children is a testament to how you prepare the children for the next stage in their lives.

My daughter loves Banana Moon Hatton. She has attended the nursery for 2-years now, she has made new friends and looks forward to going in each week. The staff are all kind, friendly and very creative; they do plenty of learning/fun activities for the children, and the outdoor paddock is amazing. They

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.941) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick) 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 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 4.941 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick) is calculated as follows: ( (387 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 408 Ratings = 4.941
  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 Banana Moon Day Nursery Hatton (Warwick) 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 110 number of registered child places is 22, 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.
