Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I really like the school especially how welcoming the manager and staff are, I was nervous going to the school for the first time since it was past the normal school admissions calendar but the manager made me feel so relaxed and my son loves going here. He’s always looking forward to going to school
even on his off days. It’s a shame we can’t be there longer because he’s going to big school in September. We really loved it there.

My little boy has been going to Ashbourne since November 21 and he has come on leaps and bounds since with his speech, interaction, and use of cutlery. He loves going, he's got a great key worker and he loves all the staff just as much.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely wonderful nursery and team at Milton Keynes Central. My little boy started in September, I was starting a new job and the manager and the team couldn't have been more supportive. My son built relationships quickly with staff and peers and I feel this is due to the setting and environment.
The feedback I receive on how much fun he has had in the day is comforting knowing he's happy and having lots of fun while developing and learning new things.

My son started in lockdown and we were made to feel welcome from the tour up to his enrolment. He absolutely loves it and waves goodbye with a big smile each morning.
He has shown confidence and development since starting there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little one started in January, the Nursery has been brilliant in accommodating his needs. He has settled very quickly and has made friends since starting nursery. The staff are very professional in all that they do and any queries I have they are quick to rectify. They send regular updates on his
progress with photos, every week you are informed of the topic and pictures of displays they are doing with the children. I can highly recommend this nursery.

My son has been attending this nursery for the last 2 years and I can see immense growth in him in all areas. I am very happy with the Ashbourne Milton Keynes Central team. They provide proper communication and interesting activities for the child. They always come up with a solution if a child is facing
any problem in the nursery. Thank you team.

I was welcomed by the great staff when I wanted my daughter to join, I had to start university. The staff are really great and kind. My daughter adjusted really well and bonded with her key worker very well and all the management there. My daughter loves the nursery and she’s always looking forward
to going and playing with her friends and the place is clean and safe. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to join the nursery.

The nursery staff are very friendly and caring. I can tell for a fact my daughter cannot wait to come to nursery even though she only does three days a week. I can't believe it's almost 3 years now and she is currently in pre-school. This is a testament to the hard work of the staff and I say thank
you. I am very satisfied with the care, learning, nutrition and services provided at the nursery.

My daughter has been at this nursery for 3 years and is now in the preschool room. I can honestly say that all staff from her being 9 months old to present are absolutely fantastic, they have my daughter's interest at heart and really strive to continue her development. The staff also work with you
if there are any areas in which you would like to improve e.g. encouraging eating vegetables. I'm really impressed with my daughter's development and I would recommend this nursery to anyone. We will be sad to leave when she starts school in September.

My boys love coming to nursery, they settled in so well. The staff are lovely and communicate with me regularly when I pick them up, or phone or email, and on a weekly basis I get pictures and update through the app they use. Good variety for lunch too.

It is a quite spacious and nice place to drop kids and especially the staff are friendly and nice. Among them, one member of staff, in particular, is very good and the manager quite competent compared to previously. My daughter goes 3 days a week and she looks good and happy when I go and pick her up.

My daughter absolutely loves Ashbourne. The staff are amazing and very friendly. The nursery is very accommodating and will do their best to help out even if its not part of their policy.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.863)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.863) out of 10 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Milton Keynes Central 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 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 4.988 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Milton Keynes Central is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.988
  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 4.875 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Milton Keynes Central is based on 14 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.875
  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.
