My child has been attending Boys & Girls Nursery since 2017. All the staff have been amazing and genuinely care about the wellbeing of the children in their care. They have worked with me to get the best out of my child and it gives me peace of mind when I drop off my child to know that he is in very
good hands. I honestly cannot recommend this nursery enough. Great environment and great people.

My son has now attended Boys & Girls Nursery in Rickmansworth for 6 months and his time there has been wonderful. The staff are kind, caring and above all, reassuring. I wouldn't have been able to return to work so smoothly without the devoted teams, and my son's development is thriving on a day-to-day
basis. Good work!

My daughter has been attending since she was just under 10 months old and really loves it. The team are all really warm and friendly. Settling in sessions and availability of the screen to check in after the first few, slightly traumatic, drops offs was a huge relief especially to see that she recovered
and was happy and comfortable again within a few seconds of us disappearing. Enjoyed the meet the team evening and having a chance to hear more about the days. She loves eating there with her friends and has progressed a lot with the variety of food she eats since joining the nursery. I'm always happy with what she eats as they have a really good varied, healthy menu available including puree options when she started out. All in all have been really happy with the nursery and little one is flourishing there. Would definitely recommend.

Review from Lara T (Mother of Child) published on 13 November 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my son and daughter attended Boys & Girls nursery from babies until the end of Preschool. Due to work commitments, my children attended three out of the four nurseries - Watford, Rickmansworth and Croxely.
Each setting maintained high standards of childcare and really enabled my children to reach
their developmental milestones. Both were very excited to go to the nursery each day and made lifelong bonds with their key workers and the other staff in the nursery.
Leaving your children to go to work and trusting someone else can be daunting but I can defiantly say that Boys & Girls Nursery was a home away from home!

My daughter has been attending for 18 months now, she absolutely loves going. The facilities and staff are first class, the friendliness and feel of the nursery are simply brilliant. From the moment we get in the car to go she is excited to see her friends and staff.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
this nursery to anyone considering a nursery in Rickmansworth.
Keep up the great work!

Review from Jamie D (Father of Child) published on 29 October 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been attending Boys & Girls Rickmansworth since the start of August and, after a brief difficult settling in period, he is thriving and really enjoys his time there. He initially struggled to get used to being away from Mummy and Daddy but, with the support and kindness from the team in
the baby room, he is doing so well.


We can’t say enough good things about the girls that work in the baby room. They are lovely and seem to genuinely care about our son (and all the children). We are happy when we drop him off that he is looked after, embraced and encouraged to develop and not just ‘kept an eye on’.


The manager, Natalie, is amazing. She has been so helpful and very understanding to these first-time parents dropping off their pride and joy!


Overall, we are delighted with our decision to send Alfie to Boys & Girls Rickmansworth and couldn’t recommend the nursery enough!

I have two little ones at Boys & Girls, staff are friendly, warm and nurturing towards the children, especially the babies room. I have loved the fact there is sibling time, which allows my little ones to spend time together too during the day, which is helping my youngest one to settle into nursery
life. Such a lovely, caring nursery. Thank you.

My daughter has been coming to Boys & Girls Nursery for the last two months. I was nervous at first sending my daughter to nursery but the staff made my husband and I feel very relaxed. She's settled in brilliantly with the help of the wonderful staff. I always watch for a few minutes before collecting
her and she's always having a ball. I would recommend Boys & Girls Nursery to everyone.

Both my daughters attend Boys & Girls and both of them love it. Never a day where I have a problem getting them motivated to leave the house for nursery. The staff are attentive, caring and creative. Especially in the baby room they really give everything to ensure a smooth settling in period. Food
is excellent too. As well as all the extracurricular activities they offer.

When entering Boys & Girls Nursery, we knew straight away it would be the right choice and they haven't failed us. My daughter only took a few sessions before she was settled in and having the CCTV in reception to watch her, really helped with my own anxiety of leaving her for the first time. There
is always lots of activities for her to enjoy which change weekly.

Our daughter has been at Boys and Girls since she was 11 months old to 2 years old. She has blossomed and developed thanks to the support of the nursery. They have been attentive and extremely flexible when we have needed to change, extend or add sessions, which has been really useful returning to work.
The daily activities are varied, music sessions are a hit and the on site chef cooking, home cooked food a favourite with our little one.

It was with a lot of apprehension and doubts that we choose B&Gs Rickmansworth for our pre-schooler being new to the area at that time. But it turned out to be my baseless fear within the first few weeks of her starting the nursery.
Her key worker, an amazing lady took her under her wing and from
then on it was a smooth journey for a year. I can hardly remember of any mornings when she said she didn't want to go to nursery. Being there full time Monday to Friday it was truly her second home. She adored her teachers and loved all the extra activities like Sports, French and TinyMites. Sadly, it is now time to say goodbye as she is moving to big school. I really wish she had more time there. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to any parents who are looking for childcare.

My daughter is in the pre-toddler room at Boys & Girls Nursery Rickmansworth. The girls in the room have been brilliant in helping her to settle in. She is learning new things every day with their help. Seeing her so happy, waving me goodbye and having a special relationship with her key person means
I'm a happy Mumma who is confident that she will be will taken care of whilst I'm working.

My son started Boys & Girls Nursery when he was 6 months old, they provide a nurturing environment and the staff are passionate about the care they provide. The meals are freshly cooked on site and my son always eats well. His day is full of wonderful, varied activities and they have a large garden
which he loves. It’s very heartwarming to be able to drop your child at nursery for them to run off and play with their friends waving goodbye to you from across the room. Happy child = happy Mummy! I would highly recommend this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.955)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.955) out of 10 for Boys & Girls Nursery Rickmansworth 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 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 4.905 for Boys & Girls Nursery Rickmansworth is calculated as follows: ( (76 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.905
  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 4.05 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Boys & Girls Nursery Rickmansworth is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.35
  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.
