We have 2 little boys that attend Summerhouse and they absolutely love it there. Their outdoor area is second to none and the children are always out playing and exploring. The staff are all so welcoming and caring towards all the children in their setting. Parents are well informed about what their
child has been up to through verbal communication and we love receiving pictures of the fun that the boys have been up to. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for childcare for their little ones!
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Director at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments - it is lovey that both the boys have very different personalities and enjoy all the outdoor activities and exploring the garden area. - I will pass on your lovely comments to the Aunties

My children have been in summerhouse for a few years now and I can honestly say it's the best nursery I have ever used. It's a home from home, the staff are amazing and always go that extra mile not only with the children/family but the community too, what they do with the Christmas and Easter collections
and let the children distribute them back to the community is such a lovely thing to do and it also teaches them how to give back. My children always hate leaving there because they have great friendships and so much fun that says a lot too me. Thank you summerhouse for all you do
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Director at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments - We do try to make the setting feel like home for the children and actively involve them in what is happening. in the community. I will pass you rlovely comments on to the Aunties

We moved to the local area back in summer 2025 and our youngest joined Summerhouse September 2025 and we have never doubted our decision. They are amazing, very communicative and caring. It feels like one big family and our daughter loves all her aunties. We love it's mostly an outdoor setting as
our daughter thrives with this environment. We would recommend Summerhouse to anybody!

My daughter joined in January and is thriving at this nursery. She is eager to go every morning and gets excited to put her bag on and greet the staff who take her to learn and play. Seeing her so happy, and confident to leave my side , tells me she's enjoying each and every morning there even when
she can't explain this herself yet. The nursery updates of photos each day is a joy to see and is so reassuring that everyone is having a wonderful time both indoors and outdoors with many different activities.

I cannot recommend Sumerhouse Out of School Club enough! My son has come on leaps & bounds since joining the nursery in January. If I compare what he was like then in terms of how upset he was to be leaving me, to now it is like a different child completely. This is all down to the support & nurturing
of the Aunties at Summerhouse. They have been very patient and have brought my son out of his shell to the point that now he has become very social, enjoys playing with other children and is excited to be going to nursery & seeing his friends. Regular updates on the app have been very reassuring that my son is having a lovely time. Thanks so much.

My granddaughter started in Summerhouse over a year ago as a shy 2 year old. Within days she was excited to go to nursery every day and see the Aunties and to be with her new friends. Summerhouse has a wonderful range of indoor activities for the children as well as a large outdoor area where they can
play as well as help with the nursery garden. The quality of food at snack and mealtimes is excellent, varied and the weekly menu is always displayed for parents to see. Thanks in no small part to everyone at Summerhouse, I have seen a shy 2 year old develop into a happy confident little girl who loves her nursery days.

Absolutely amazing!
I love this nursery as 2 of my children have been here over the years, my youngest one still attends and has loved this past year and looking forward to transitioning into nursery. They helped him settle in amazingly. He struggled with his speech when he first attended and the nursery
aunties picked up on this and helped us get help. He know is a confident well speaking little man.
The aunties are so good with all of the children and nothing is a problem, always there to help them grow and genuinely care for each and every child!
The communication is great and I can't fault anything.
The outside space is so good for the little ones with lots for them to do. On nice days they will have little trips out.
Honestly the BEST nursery ever
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Owner at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you so much for your lovely review all the Aunties are in tears. It has been a please to be part of his journey and seem him develop in the time he has been with us.

My daughter's been going to Summerhouse for a year now and it has been the best thing she started! The staff are incredible, they're friendly, kind and show that they genuinely care for the children in their care. The food is always healthy and has a wide variety of options available. My daughter
comes home bouncing with happiness after spending a day there, and is always full of stories of what she has been doing; the same excitement is there in the morning when I take her in. They allow the children to explore in a way that is safe and secure. The garden is lovely with lots of activities for them to do. They regularly send updates via the app showing what they have been up to that day.

Back in July 2024 my son started to attend Summerhouse Out of School Club after having to withdraw him from a previous setting, the staff did everything to make sure he was ok even me too. Fast forwarding to now, putting him in Summerhouse was without a doubt the best thing I have ever done. The staff
are constantly happy, caring, welcoming and just absolutely perfect, every one of them takes time to personally get to know your child inside and out. The setting is truly like home from home with great outdoor space and plenty of equipment for inside and outside learning. The learning, my son has come on leaps and bounds there not only with his learning but his confidence too. He always has a full belly, comes home clean, I feel he is 100% safe there, management is brilliant, every day is a happy different day. There isn't a day he comes out unhappy and he looks forward to going. I can't thank the staff enough and definitely would recommend anyone to send there child here.

Having used Summerhouse throughout my children's pre-school and school time journeys I am more than happy to sing their praises. My children's time at Summerhouse has always been a positive, and educational experience.
The Aunties know my children well and I feel they all get their individual needs
and interests met. Having spent some extra time with them over the Xmas period my kids have made some beautiful crafts and things I will keep in their memory boxes.

Summerhouse is an amazing setting which we're so glad our child attends. We've seen our child learn and pick up so many new things and enjoy his time there every day. It's a great environment for children and we especially love the outdoor area. It's a great peace of mind as a parent knowing how cared
for and safe our child is going to Summerhouse.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.976) out of 10 for Summerhouse Out of School Club 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.976 for Summerhouse Out of School Club is calculated as follows: ( (243 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 249 Ratings = 4.976
  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 Summerhouse Out of School Club is based on 21 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 34 number of registered child places is 6.8, which has been reached with 21 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.
