  • The Cheshire Day Nursery @ Thelwall, Warrington
The Cheshire Day Nursery has been established since 2000 and places a strong emphasis on play, laughter, learning, and fun. The nursery is guided by a philosophy of 'praise, guidance, and encouragement', which aims to foster a happy childhood while helping children build a healthy self-image and grow in confidence.

Recently refurbished, the nursery provides a bright, welcoming, and well-resourced environment, catering to families in Thelwall, Lymm, Grappenhall, Stockton Heath, and Latchford. It features four distinct rooms tailored to different stages of development: the Baby Room, Early Explorers, Early Learners, and Kindergarten.

The highly trained practitioners have years of experience in childcare and are committed to working in partnership with parents. Parents are encouraged to discuss their child’s day with their key worker, and the nursery uses an online app to share observations and track each child’s progress.

With a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities, The Cheshire Day Nursery provides a nurturing space where children of all ages can thrive.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been attending the nursery since September 2024. He has thoroughly enjoyed meeting the wonderful staff and making friends. He has come on so much in terms of his development and looks forward to each day. The facilities are great and the staff are very professional, friendly and attentive.
I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone. Well done on the recent Ofsted.

We have had 3 children go through the Cheshire Day Nursery at Thelwall over the last 6 years and have been blown away at how great the staff have been with all of our children. Our youngest is super happy and confident going in every day and has learnt so much from the staff and facilities. It is such
a safe and transparent place for children to go, explore, learn and grow. I would recommend to everyone.

My son attends The Cheshire Day Nursery at Thelwall and has been coming since 8 months old. He absolutely loves nursery and kindergarten where he is currently based now. He has learnt so much during his time at nursery and flourished in his development. All the staff are brilliant and they all give
the home away from home experience and make you feel like family. The nursery app is updated daily so you know exactly what they have done during the day and they upstate you with all information including any stay and plays and festivities happening in nursery. Brilliant nursery and really happy with our experience. 10/10

Our son has recently started at The Cheshire Day Nursery Thelwall in the Babies room. Every member of staff we have been in contact with so far has been fantastic - caring, happy and attentive to both our son and our queries. Our son was able to attend various setting days which really helped us all.
We are given attentive feedback at every handover and pick-up. All facilities have been clean and safe. Our son has only been attending for 2 months but we already have crafts and pictures as keepsakes. We couldn't be happier!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started nursery in November last year. She had several settling-in sessions, more than friends have had at other nurseries, that helped both her and I adjust to our new routine. The ladies in the baby room are lovely and my daughter quickly adjusted to nursery and loves to have a cuddle
with all of them. We get regular photos where she looks so happy and contented and we are glad we made the choice to send her to the Thelwall nursery.

We could not be happier with The Cheshire Day Nursery at Thelwall. My little girl has been attending for just over a year and loves going, the staff are all very caring and have the children's best interests at heart. We are very impressed with the facilities and it is always extremely clean and welcoming.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery!

It is testament to how amazing the nursery is when your children wake every morning wanting to go. I never have to question that my children are well cared for and loved by all the staff. The support we have received, as a family, is second to none. As a solo parent, knowing that I have another “family”
I can rely on is very comforting, thank you The Cheshire Day Nursery for all you do.

My little boy loves nursery. I feel that the staff are very interactive and supportive of him! The baby room staff are a credit to the company. If I have any questions, the office and baby room are always happy to listen and find an answer for me. It is a fantastic nursery.

From the moment we first viewed The Cheshire Day Nursery @ Thelwall, we knew it was the nursery for our children. Friendly and approachable staff who always endeavour to go out of their way to help, playful, yet always professional.
The activities, play area/outside space and equipment is amazing
and the children always have a balanced and nutritious meal.
The Cheshire Day Nursery @ Thelwall has always been the best choice we ever made for our children. Keep up the good work.

The Cheshire Day Nursery @ Thelwall is, in our experience, an outstanding establishment, for which we are privileged to send our daughter to. All the staff, across the entire facility, are kind, welcoming and clearly very passionate about childcare. The attention to detail regarding the care of my child
is outstanding and we know all of her needs are met throughout the duration of her stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Cheshire Day Nursery to any friends or family.

My daughter loves nursery and I feel confident dropping her off knowing she is well cared for and the staff really care. She had made great relationships with staff. They have gone above and beyond since my daughter first started and I can’t praise them enough.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.681)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.681) out of 10 for The Cheshire Day Nursery @ Thelwall 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 5 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 4.950 for The Cheshire Day Nursery @ Thelwall is calculated as follows: ( (57 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.95
  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 3.731 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Cheshire Day Nursery @ Thelwall is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.231
  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.
