Review from Bridie R (Mother of Child) published on 25 December 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Picking a nursery for the first time is super hard. Is it lovely? Are they fun? Will they leave them outside for the foxes? And its how much for one day?! It’s a total emotional minefield. After a false start elsewhere I decided to try out Maggie & Rose after reading about its ethos of creating a home
from home and thinking that maybe this could be really good. The nursery interior itself is ace. Far away from basic bright colours, its warm and welcoming with a ton of interesting things for little people to see and do. You feel totally welcome. But my high fiving is one thing, this will be decided on the happiness of persons small.


However, my son absolutely adores it. They do great interesting activities, the staff are truly wonderful and have been pivotal in the development of my little two-year-old guy who is such a lovely little boy (toast thrown across the kitchen in fury this morning aside) I would recommend without question, it's really the loveliest nursery I could have found.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Maggie & Rose have proved a safe and entertaining environment for my son since the age of 1. He has enjoyed very long action-packed days there (max. 8.30-6pm), 2-3 days a week for nearly 2 years. The nursery provides healthy meals (mostly cooked) and snacks, nappies and even spare clothing and sleep
toys when required.
He was comfortable enough to sleep for up to 2 hours at nap time before he dropped his afternoon nap and has always enjoyed the exciting activities - especially the cooking, art and Spanish classes. The outdoor areas are brilliantly designed given the limited space and the toys, tricycles, ride-on cars etc are of high quality.
I have found the staff to be absolutely wonderful and engaging, both in Babies and Toddlers. They have been attentive to our individual needs. I would not hesitate in recommending Maggie & Rose as I feel the care they have shown my son has been first class.

The Maggie & Rose Nursery is vibrant and imaginative and thoughtfully designed with kids in mind (from toddler height tables and chairs, miniature shopping trolleys and kitchen corners, a village green, tree house and a double-decker bus that doubles as an arts and crafts studio, the environment is
exciting and inspiring for kids). The nursery staff I have met are all knowledgeable, caring and detail focused on your little one. The staff are not afraid to get their hands dirty with lots of fun messy activities (sand, water, paints, playdough) and provide a wide range of daily activities including reading, arts, crafts, music, sports and creative play. There is a reassuring focus on EYFS goals with different weekly/bi-weekly themes for activities and they keep a scrapbook for each child with pictures and notes of milestones in their development so parents don't miss out. My little boy has had a lovely experience there so far and they are currently helping us with potty training!

I love this nursery! From the moment I walked in the door, I felt it and that is so important when you are leaving your most precious possession somewhere.


The staff are so helpful and friendly and go above and beyond to make you and your child feel supported.


The facilities are just amazing,

not your usual church hall or white box - great for little people's imaginations to run wild.


Their seasonal menus are so well planned, my son eats better than I do.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

Right in the heart of Chiswick! Maggie & Rose Village Nursery has brilliant staff and very loving. My son is excited every morning to go to nursery. The model of the village nursery makes the children's experience a fun and enhancing.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.858)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.858) out of 10 for Chiswick House Day Nursery and Preschool 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 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.858 for Chiswick House Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (309 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 359 Ratings = 4.858
  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 Chiswick House Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 30 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 30 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.
