Absolutely love this nursery, my son went here from 14 months and he is nearly 10, so when I had my daughter I knew I wanted her to have the same experience that he had, even some of the staff were the same which says a lot. We love the outside space and the range of activities, we would 100% recommend
the nursery.

Always doing creative, fun activities but also teach kids how to tidy up and be polite.

This nursery has been amazing from the moment I called. My son has extra needs and nothing phased the team at the nursery. He’s developing so well there and they all go above and beyond to help anything he needs. I cannot fault them on any front. They care for all the children like they are their own
and I am so grateful to be able to go to work fully confident he’s being looked after so well with no problems. Thanks to the amazing team.

So pleased to have found this nursery. Cannot fault the staff in how they have lovingly supported and nurtured my boy through his settling in which had been a bit overwhelming for him. Such amazing patience and reassurance from a member of staff in the baby room, she has made this process a lot easier
and always has time to give a detailed debrief on pick-up. Really appreciate it, thanks again.

Our son has been at this nursery for three weeks now and after much deliberating about which nursery to send him to, I can honestly say we made the right decision in sending him to Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school. From day one, the staff have been and are friendly and attentive. My son comes
home every day happy and smiling after a day at nursery which fills me with confidence that he is receiving the best possible care. The daily updates via the app from the nursery are a big help and aid with direct communication with the nursery.

Review from H K (Mother of Child) published on 5 April 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Initially felt very nervous applying for a nursery with my baby only being 11 months. We were welcomed to an open day where we got to look around one-on-one and meet the staff members, see the baby room and our baby came along as well. This put us at ease.
The settling-in period was very impressive
with lots of opportunities for our baby to get used to being dropped off. It’s really not been long and now our baby is all smiles at drop-off and pick-up.
The staff are incredibly warm and personable. They clearly love what they do and it shows. The whole experience of using this nursery has taken away any anxiety I had about going back to work. Our baby has come along so much, they are more inquisitive, play with toys on their own and are very confident with new people and other babies/children.
Would highly recommend.
Reply from Laura Wiltshire, Marketing Executive at Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-schoolHi, thank you for leaving such a lovely review. We are so thrilled that you and your family are happy with the service we provide a Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school. We understand that leaving your little one at nursery for the first time can bring up a lot of feelings of unease and anxiety. That’s we put a lot of time and effort into our settling-in sessions to make you and your family feel completely safe and at ease without our setting. To help us achieve this, we aim to hire well-qualified, kind and enthusiastic staff who put the child at the centre of all we do.

My son has been attending Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school for the last five months (in babies) and he absolutely loves it now. As soon as we came for the open day we knew we had to send him here. The outside spaces set in the forest are so much nicer than some other nearby nurseries and
the staff are all so lovely and have been working there for a long time and so it feels like a big family. I receive good updates from the staff on his day there when I collect him and now get lovely photos and updates throughout the day via their new app.

Wonderful nursery with kind and helpful staff. Our son has thrived within this setting, and we absolutely love that he spends so much time outside. The nursery is surrounded by big gardens and forest, and our little boy is able to come home and tell us all about the exciting things he has learnt with
his friends. The staff are communicative and fun and are always happy to go above and beyond. Highly recommend!

We are really happy with this nursery. The management are very visible and always available to answer questions, provide updates on the nursery and generally interact with parents. All staff are really enthusiastic about the children and it is clear they enjoy their jobs. As a parent I am always greeted
with a smile and a warm welcome. My daughter enjoys attending the nursery and often asks to go in on the weekend and days she doesn't attend. The nursery have supported our daughter with life skills, speech development and general good behaviour. We are very happy with this nursery.

My daughter has been going to the nursery for the past 2 years and she absolutely loves it. It has 3 outdoor playgrounds, and in the warmer months, they play all day outside. They do many interesting activities like growing caterpillars and then releasing the butterflies back into nature, they did forest
school, kids yoga and they also have their Guinea pigs. They do a lot of improvements in the nursery and invest constantly in it. I would not hesitate for my next child to go there as well.

Since my son started attending in March of this year we have seen such amazing growth in him. The staff are amazing and have supported my son so well. Initially a very clingy baby, he has grown to love the staff there and has such a great time. The kids spend so much time outdoors and have such a variation
in their play that I know my little one will continue to flourish there.
As time goes on, we see such great improvements in the nursery and I have no doubt that they will continue growing from strength to strength.

A brilliant nursery! The outdoor space is just perfect for kids who want to be kids and enjoy their time at nursery. I have a 2-year-old and a 4-year-old, both boys who absolutely love the nursery and the staff. Most days I can’t drag my kids away from the nursery and they are excited to go there in
the morning. The staff are wonderful and friendly and are able to communicate and relate to the children on their level. My 4-year-old's communication skills have vastly improved due to the time and effort the staff have put in and their potty training was exceptional, considering my child has difficulty communicating. Since the new management team has taken over I have observed a big difference in the staff morale and the aesthetics of the nursery. It’s comforting that their staff retention is so high. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a fun, stimulating and friendly place to send their child! I am looking forward to sending my third child there.

From the moment we wandered around we fell in love with this nursery. Set in a surrounding forest we are regularly greeted by squirrels, muntjacs and a variety of birds with amazing greenery all around us.
Our little girl loves it here and is extremely well looked after and loved by the staff who are
easy to relate to and very welcoming to both students and parents. We are regularly updated about her progress and milestones (and behaviour!)
Since the introduction of its new manager, the nursery has gone from strength to strength with lots of outdoor play, learning activities and even baby yoga!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.754)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.754) out of 10 for Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.779 for Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (178 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 226 Ratings = 4.779
  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 4.975 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school is based on 19 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 = 3.975
    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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4, which has been reached with 19 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.
