My son has been attending since he was three years old and is very happy there. He has settled in very well and loved the nursery. The staff are wonderful, very knowledgeable, welcoming and they provide an excellent environment and care. I love this place and does my child.

My experience with Rayners Lane Montessori Nursery has been positive so far. The staff are very polite, always willing to help, and very nurturing towards my baby which makes me very happy and secure to leave him in their care.

We have had an excellent experience with Rayners Lane Montessori. They helped my daughter to settle in and now she loves going. We like that she does a variety of activities such as music and sports as well as lots of learning through play. My daughter has allergies and the nursery have been very supportive
and willing to adjust the menu especially for her.

Ever since my daughter went to this nursery I feel really good because I know she is safe. She is calmer, more attentive, does not throw toys or objects about but puts them down slowly, drinks more often from the cup, plays more carefully and she is more friendly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Many thanks from the heart for all your hard work, love, dedication, and patience with the children and for keeping personal belonging in order (toys, clothes etc) and making every day a fun environment to go to which was also very important.
Rayners Lane Montessori and all the lovely staff were part
of our son's development and first stages in life and helped prepare him for school through creative and educational activities. They also learnt the months in the year, the days of the week, numbers, and extra curriculum activities like creative cooks, show and tell sessions, Boogie, Mites, Physical - sporty, Spanish class through play and song that were easy to memorise. Also for our son to expand his wide learning abilities. A big thank you to all the team we will never forget you.

My son started nursery in July last year and although it hasn’t been an easy start for him, I only have words of praise for all the staff at Rayners Lane Montessori. Daily feedback is great and I can tell that they are supportive and provide him with so much care and attention. Thank you from the heart
for all your hard work and dedication.

Review from Carmen D (Mother of Child) published on 24 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
At first, I was a bit nervous to leave my son with a stranger. However, I can now see how happy he is when he goes to nursery and I can only be grateful for having someone like Rayners Lane Montessori contributing to my child’s growth and emotional well-being. They always take the time to smile when
we arrive and they are having the patience to say goodbye ten times when we leave because my son simply loves waving at the door, on his way out and then again at the window. I am very happy with the progress he made while being under the nurseries protective wing. The staff at Rayners Lane Montessori are pleasant to my son and I feel comfortable being away from my child, knowing that they will care for him and they will guide his steps to a harmonious future.

The nursery has really helped my son; it has helped him have a better attitude. He has got much better at listening, and when I tell him something, he will do it. I have seen a very big difference in his behaviour - for the good. I really like this nursery. I think its good for children, and I will
be sending my younger son soon.

My son has been going to this nursery since he was a year old, and now he is three and a half. He enjoys going to nursery and playing with his teachers and friends. He has grown to be an independent and compassionate individual. Thanks for all the efforts that the staff and admin put in.

Very pleased with all the staff, they always take care of the children. They teach them how to behave and use things in real life. The staff are caring, the place is very friendly and clean. My son has learned a lot during his time at nursery, and we are very sorry to leave it. We will miss everyone
dearly.

My daughter has attended the nursery since Jan 2018, there has a been a big change in her behaviour and the way she interacts with other children that's completely down to the nursery.
Before attending nursery she would be really shy and not interact with other children.
I am really happy with the
staff at nursery they are excellent. I would 100% recommend the nursery to new parents.

I am very pleased by the way my son is being looked after in the nursery. He is growing into a confident young boy and I can see him growing and learning things too. He is very happy going to and coming back from nursery.
He is fed well and is never without a clean nappy. Good luck to the team! Well
done!

My two-year-old is very happy at this nursery. The teachers are very caring and always have time to chat when they come to the door. There seem to be lots of different activities organised for the children daily which is great.
The teachers are always keen to engage and are always willing to listen
to me. Cannot fault the settings. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.891)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Rayners Lane Montessori 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.891 for Rayners Lane Montessori is calculated as follows: ( (139 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.891
  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 Rayners Lane Montessori is based on 13 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 13 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.

Purva Vig

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2021

My passion about childcare started over 18 years ago and with each passing year it has grown stronger and deeper. I am highly inspired by Maria Montessori words, "The greatest gift we can give our children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence". I strongly believe that children are strong, capable citizens who are full of wonder and curiosity to learn. Our aim is to provide a healthy and positive environment that encourages the holistic environment of the children. At Rayners Lane, we help your child develop independence, a sense of empathy and social justice, and a lifelong love of learning.

Gemma Lester

Job Title: Group Quality Director Joined: 2020

I have worked in childcare for just over 16 years. I started as a Nursery Nurse and worked my way up to Senior Management, working with a group of nurseries primarily in London and the surrounding areas. My biggest strength is that I am a people person, I love to spend time with families and colleagues to create a collaborative way of working which encourages honesty and transparency. My role within Inspire focuses on driving quality and listening to and engaging our people. This alongside leading and working closely with the headteachers and teams at each nursery on my weekly visits. I have a huge passion for early year’s education and developing children to be lifelong learners, which I believe is crucial in the ever changing world that we live in.
