Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending nursery two mornings per week since January and I am amazed by all of the changes I have noticed in him. His speech and interaction with others (the main reason we sent him to nursery) has developed so quickly and I can send him off to nursery in the mornings knowing that he
is being well looked after and cared for. He was very tearful at first when we left him as it was all new to him but he goes in happily now, looking forward to seeing the ladies and other children, a sure sign that he is happy there. I love receiving his little daily report when I get in from work too so that I can see what he's been up to during the day. I looked at a few other nurseries but knew as soon as I walked in that this was the right place for my little boy and I definitely made the right choice for him and us as parents. I could not rate or recommend this nursery high enough.

My daughter attends Cheshunt Pre-school and loves it there. The girls that are with her during the day are so kind and caring and always make me feel at ease leaving her in their care. The Garden is lovely and well equipped, and she wants to be out there constantly. They cook fresh food at the nursery
and I am confident that she is eating healthy fresh food every day. Just a really lovely bright nursery in general, but the staff really make the nursery. It is such an extra comfort to know that the Nursery has recently received an Outstanding from Ofsted. Can't rate it highly enough.

Cheshunt Pre-School has provided my son with a great learning foundation in readiness for 2017/18 reception class. Apart from this, the staff and management have been extraordinary in their support to my family as a whole. I have never for a day doubted their capability in caring for my son. I will
miss you all. God bless.

Both of our daughters attend Cheshunt Pre-School and Day Nursery and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Our eldest started in the Baby Room and is just about to move into Pre-School 2. All of the staff are warm, friendly, professional and supportive. The manager is extremely helpful and accommodating.
The garden spaces are excellent and our girls love them. The nursery provides wonderful, nutritious meals and activities. We'll be sad to see our eldest leave but are excited to see our youngest move through the different rooms.

Brought my daughter back to this nursery after taking her out for a few months due to fees. I looked at 4 different nurseries and the standard was very poor. I registered her straight back to Asquith. You pay for the care and the quality of the nursery and my daughter loves it here. The girls in Toddler
2 are amazing, she never wants to come home sand is always so excited to come to nursery.

My little boy only comes to this nursery one day a week, but I can already tell he has learnt so much from attending this nursery. He has learnt to use his spoon and fork, learn body parts etc :) I know that on days my little boy needs cuddles the staff are always there to comfort him. Very happy mummy

I find this nursery really good with the security they have and the sizes of the room 12-15 children. This means my child has more one to one with the staff. All staff are really polite no matter what time you come to the nursery and always display professionalism. I would recommend this nursery to
family and friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at Asquith Cheshunt at 12 months in the Baby Room and is now in the Nursery room. From the first day, we have been absolutely delighted with the support he has received and the high standard of care that he has been given. We have seen high levels of cleanliness and attention to detail
from the team and the safety procedures in place are adhered to strictly. His key workers and nursery staff have been kind, helpful, diligent and confident and his nursery days are filled with great activities and play experiences that I could not even think of doing at home! Reporting is frequent and comprehensive and I have no doubt that he will be ready for reception class at school more fully because of the preparation work done at Asquith.

Amazing nursery! My daughter has been coming for just over a year and totally loves it. The care and attention she is given is second to none and the management are always very helpful. As a family, we felt welcome from the moment we stepped in the front door and we haven't looked back since!

My 3 year old daughter has just started at this nursery.
She absolutely loves coming here!
She only does 3 hours a day and is never ready to leave when we go to pick her up!
She can't wait to tell us about her day, especially when she has been playing with the sand or water!
She also loves the
garden!!
All the staff have been welcoming and friendly!!

I would highly recommend this nursery as it is a beautiful building. The baby room is so lovely and clean. When collecting my granddaughter on a Monday, it's so lovely to see her so happy playing and how close she is with all staff members. Feedback is always on point with what she has been doing and
what she has eaten. I always feel very welcome when I come to the nursery which is so lovely.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.731)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.731) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Cheshunt Day Nursery and Preschool 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.731 for Bright Horizons Cheshunt Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (258 Excellents x 5) + (68 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 334 Ratings = 4.731
  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 Bright Horizons Cheshunt Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 27 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 77 number of registered child places is 15.4, which has been reached with 27 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.
