Review from Sophie B (Mother of Child) published on 9 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Wells House Kindergarten has been the most incredible place for my daughter since she started at just 9 months old. As a parent doing this journey alone, I was nervous about finding the right environment-but the warmth, care, and genuine love from the team made all the difference. My daughter has grown
into a happy, confident, and curious little girl, and I truly believe that's because of the nurturing space she's been part of every day. The staff have shown such dedication, patience, and kindness-not only to her, but to me as well. It's a rare thing to find a setting that feels so safe and supportive, and I'm endlessly grateful for everything this place has given us. I would wholeheartedly recommend Wells House to any parent looking for a loving, supportive, and high-quality early years environment. Thank you for giving my daughter such a beautiful start.

Wells House has provided a safe and exciting learning environment for my son over the last 4 years. He has loved being here every day which has meant so much to us as parents. It has a very homely feel and the staff are wonderful.

The staff at Wells House have provided second to none care for my son, from a year old to now four years old, from baby to boy. Help with speech, concentration, support and advice when he needed an operation, they made learning fun and encouraged him to take the steps he needed, along with a lot of
hugs!
The food has been a Godsend as my son is fussy at home but has enjoyed good, nutritious home cooked food at Wells House, which has given me peace of mind he can actually eat it!
He has formed bonds with staff and kids alike, and he will really miss the nursery. I am sad for him to be leaving and I truly cannot say enough good things about this nursery!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at Wells House Kindergarten in November at 9 months and settled in extremely well. The staff in the baby room ensured he was fully settled before he was due to start full days, they allowed as many settling in sessions as we felt was needed.


Since starting in November he is happy

to go into the nursery with no problems and always come home with a smile on his face. I can’t recommend Wells House Kindergarten enough they have made my son’s time at nursery enjoyable.

Overall, I am very happy with the care, attention and learning activities both of my children have received at Wells House. The staff are absolutely lovely, my son can't wait to arrive in a morning, which to me, means more than anything else. Thank you Wells House for creating a caring and welcoming
environment for my children.

The nursery is great. The feedback on my child’s day and online tools to show progress is really good to keep parents in touch with my child’s development.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Wells House Kindergarten provides a warm, friendly atmosphere. My daughter walks in like it's home from home which makes life easier for me knowing she's happy. I have been most impressed with the school room. They're providing strong guidance which I feel is preparing my daughter for school. All staff
at Wells House Kindergarten will be missed by both of us.

I feel that my child gets a great deal of learning at nursery. They do so much to help their development which makes it a nice place to send my child. The staff are really helpful and friendly and my child loves attending. They give great feedback on what the children are up to and provide online learning
journals and photos to keep you updated.

My daughter has only just started at the nursery but she has settled in well and that is due to the time the nursery have taken to ensure that happens. She had numerous settling sessions and the staff that look after are warm and friendly so you feel at ease leaving her there.

My child has attended Wells House sine 2012 when she was 9 months old and she is now nearly 3. She loves going and talks about nursery all the time. She sings songs which she has learnt at nursery and talks about what she has learnt which amazes me, and it is clear to see that the staff spend time with
her talking to her and developing her learning. The staff are really friendly and helpful. The nursery is always clean and has lovely well presented resources. I love the new online learning journeys which allows you to view your child's learning as it happens. I have been in a few times when they were having lunch or snack and the food looks lovely, a good variety homemade, fresh fruit and the portion sizes were of a good size. I would definitely recommend Wells House we are really happy and my child is really happy which is a big plus.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.083)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.083) out of 10 for Wells House Kindergarten 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Wells House Kindergarten is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5
  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 3.083 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wells House Kindergarten is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 60 number of registered child places is 12. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.083
  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.
