We've been at *Alphabet House Nursery School Eastham* for six months, the staff are caring, the rooms are clean and bright, and the daily updates (photos, notes, activity reports) keep us in the loop. My daughter (Amirah) loves the outdoor play area and the weekly themed crafts. Highly recommend for
parents looking for a safe, nurturing environment.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would like to share my best experience about my son, Shehran, who is 2 years 7 months old and currently attends Alphabet Nursery. Before joining, Shehran used very few words and had difficulty maintaining eye contact. But after attending this nursery, he has improved so much.


A special thank you

to Yesmin, who has been incredibly supportive and patient with Shehran. She always works closely with him and I can truly see the positive changes. I am also very grateful to Daisy and all the other staff members - they are extremely caring, kind, and always make sure my child feels comfortable. They even hold him and give him the emotional support he needs.


Because of their care, I feel completely safe and confident leaving my child at this nursery.


I also want to mention Sarafeen - she is absolutely the best. She always supports me and guides me regarding everything related to my child. I really appreciate her dedication and kindness.


Overall, Alphabet Nursery has made a huge difference

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Overall, we are extremely happy and pleased with this nursery 'so far' for our little one who started in the Buttercup section since he turned 9 months (he's turned 15 months now). We'd 'highly recommend' this nursery as it has a really positive, inclusive and impactful environment mainly due to: a)
Highly patient, kind, committed, value driven and caring staff. To name a few directly impacting us are: Lakki, Sarafeen, Aiysha & Khondoker (many thanks for all their support and hard work). b) The variety of activities offered including creative learning to support and boost child's confidence, physical and social development. c) Child's habits/interests and routines are properly established, understood, and followed on an ongoing basis to ensure progress with consistency. d) Meal options are varied, nutritious and can cater to different dietary needs and preferences. e) Timings are great from 8am-6pm.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son, now 18 months has been here since he was 12 months and i'm so happy with our choice. The staff make this place wonderful. I'm very confident my son is well looked after, they care very dearly for all the children, they have so much energy. Safeguarding is very good. They will call if needed,
but they are not calling parents for every little thing, they keep us well informed, only if my son is very ill/contagious must he stay off, so this is good for work. They keep the app well updated, lots of pictures and updates on development. My son is singing, vocabulary is amazing, he can do his alphabet and count to 10. This is all learning from the nursery. They host stay and plays sometimes so parents can come visit which is wonderful. Its not perfect, the nursery is not super shiny, sometimes admin is a little off. But this is occasional and it doesn't matter because my son is happy and doing well.

I cannot speak highly enough about the outstanding care and dedication shown by the teachers at Alphabet Nursery. From the very first day, they have created a warm, nurturing environment where my child feels safe, happy, and excited to learn. The teachers are incredibly loving, patient, and attentive,
always going the extra mile to ensure every child feels supported and encouraged. Their passion for early childhood development is truly inspiring, and it shines through in the way they engage with the children and communicate with parents. I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for my child to grow and thrive

My son attends the nursery, he really loves going. I like the fact it's a mixed nursery, the staff are wonderful and kind. My son doesn't want to miss a day, he looks forward to seeing his teacher and his friends. I do recommend this nursery even if you live 30 minutes away. I promise you your child
will become one of the smartest kids you know. Lovely nursery for everyone.

I'm delighted to inform that we as parents of our child are very much satisfied with the activities happening at Alphabet House Nursery, Didsbury Close. Our child has improved in several ways, from being independent and eating and doing her day to day activities with pleasure and we do enjoy observing
her singing songs and talking with us about what she does at her nursery. I take this opportunity to thank the Management and the Staff who were very keen on children's behaviour monitoring and well being. I thank everyone and heartiest best wishes to be the best Nursery in London. Thanks.

I would recommend this nursery since it does have a good environment in terms of friendly staff, basic facilities, healthy food and a nice learning opportunity for children. My daughter has learned a lot from the nursery in the time span of 4 months and hopefully she continues to do so.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.108)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.108) out of 10 for The Alphabet House Nursery School East Ham 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 7 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 4.929 for The Alphabet House Nursery School East Ham is calculated as follows: ( (78 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.929
  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 4.179 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Alphabet House Nursery School East Ham is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 73 number of registered child places is 14.6. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.6 = 0.479
  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.
