I am delighted to review NRP School for their commitment and dedication to my daughter. My daughter is such a happy, bonny girl, always smiling, jumping around, singing, chatting and excited to go to school. However, there has been some few moments in which she felt school wasn't for her, for whatever
reasons I do not know, until she was moved from that classroom to different classroom before she became herself again. Since then, she has been absolutely good, cheerful, enthusiastic with full energy to school. Moreover, the school has been helpful in helping her to fit in. Teachers and principal are all very caring, supportive, helpful, good people, compassionate and kind etc. I'll not hesitate to recommend Chestnut Nursery Norwich Nursery to people in all backgrounds to take their children there. Lovely, clean, spacious and hygienic place for children to start their school, because the beginning and start of everything in life matters.

So much work put into making the children feel happy and safe away from their parents. My daughter has not long started, but already gets excited to see her key person. The facilities are amazing. I'm actually a bit jealous that I don't get to enjoy them myself.

My son started at Chestnut Nursery School @ NRP a year ago following our relocation to the area. We were nervous how he’d settle in after moving from one nursery to another, but Chestnut Nursery has been wonderful. The settling-in process was managed with care and kindness and my son settled in faster
than ever expected. The staff are absolutely wonderful. They build such strong, trusting and close caring bonds with the children. The food is (my son tells me) delicious and there is a varied and healthy menu. The nursery has fantastic facilities and lots of activities to keep the children entertained and educationally stimulated. My son particularly loves the amount of space outside and the different gardens. I am so glad we chose to send our son to Chestnuts and would highly recommend it to all parents.

Chestnuts are a great nursery, they regularly update the parent one system so I know what my child is up to throughout the day - this is really reassuring for a first-time parent like myself. All the staff are wonderful and my son absolutely loves going to nursery each day. Updates during every pickup
are really nice too. Everyone seems to really enjoy their job which makes it easier for me to drop him off. From our first visit, the nursery asked us to give in our phones during the walk-through, which instantly assured us of their great security measures! The nursery are great at responding to emails quickly and putting me through to his key person. This is the best nursery experience I’ve had so far and look forward to seeing my son's growth with them!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been at Chestnut NRP for 18 months and I cannot fault the care they have given him. He found the transition to nursery difficult, but was always met with a warm cuddle and big smile. He clearly adores the workers in his room and they meet him with such joy and fun. The staff have been so
supportive with the various transitions (potty training, becoming a big brother), meeting his needs with consideration for him as an individual and working with us to ensure the smoothest outcome for him.
Chestnut Nursery School is a place where children and staff are happy. They communicate with us well and hold parents evenings regularly as well as stay and plays. The staff have been proactive and supportive with my son's SEN and gave excellent communication throughout the assessment process and beyond, involving us with every step. Our son loves the range of outdoor spaces from the forest school to the bike garden. This has been an environment where he continues to thrive.

Our daughter started at Chestnut Nursery School at 15 months and is now leaving to go to school. Our son also attends the nursery. We have had a fantastic experience with the nursery. The children are happy, feel safe and are developing rapidly. The staff take great enjoyment in helping them succeed.
They eat healthy food which they enjoy. They have developed wonderful friendships and have access to a super outdoor space and meditation room. They engage with parents very well - stay and play, open days and parents evenings. We are looking forward to our eldest child's graduation! Thank you.

I have nothing but praise for the nursery in all aspects. The girls in the Innes Term Time room are so lovely and my son loves going to nursery and always comes home happy having had so much fun. They accommodate needs such as naps or avoiding naps depending on plans outside of nursery. Handover is
thorough at pick up. We are kept up to date with my sons progress and were supported so well with his speech development. We are pleased to be sending our second son in September to the same room.

Our son has been attending Chestnut Nursery School @ Norwich Research Park for a year and a half. He started in Toddlers and then moved up to Pre-School/Term Time! He has absolutely flourished here and he thoroughly enjoys going to nursery every day that he’s in! He has come on leaps and bounds since
being at Chestnut Nursery School @ Norwich Research Park and a special thank you goes to the staff members in Toddlers, Pre-School and Term Time as they have been incredibly supportive and nurtured him. As well as all of the other incredible staff too! We can’t recommend Chestnut Nursery School enough! We have always felt comfortable leaving our son there, knowing he is safe and happy. So thank you for easing our minds and helping our son to flourish. You are all amazing!

My child is happy in the nursery, the staff there are so kind and they are always helpful. The staff are truly outstanding. They are not only highly qualified professionals but also caring individuals who fostered a warm and nurturing environment for the children. Each teacher displayed a genuine passion
for early childhood education and went above and beyond to create a stimulating and inclusive setting. They took the time to understand individual needs and interests, ensuring my little one felt valued and encouraged in their learning journey.

My daughter has been attending Chestnut Nursery School for the past three months and our experience has been nothing short of exceptional.
My daughter's learning progress has been outstanding, and she surprises us every day with new skills and knowledge she has picked up at school.
The teachers are
not only qualified and experienced but also display a genuine love and understanding for children. Their commitment to nurturing each child’s individual capabilities and interests is truly commendable. They have shown remarkable patience and dedication in helping my daughter grow both academically and socially.
In addition, the administrative staff is efficient and responsive, making communication between the school and parents seamless.
We feel extremely fortunate to have found Chestnut Nursery School. It offers a supportive, engaging, and nurturing environment that has given us peace of mind as parents, and more importantly, it's a place my daughter is excited to go every day.

My daughter has been attending the nursery since July 2022. She is currently in the baby's room. She is always happy when I drop her off and pick her up. Her development has excelled, and this is down to the fantastic staff at the nursery. She is really settled here, and we can't fault any of the staff.
They send us regular updates and photos via the app and also send us regular activity ideas, which we can do at home to support our daughter to develop further. I would recommend this nursery.

My son joined the holiday club for the summer holidays. At first, he was a bit nervous and upset as it was a new environment but after some patience and time, the practitioners calmed him down and updated me later in the day with how he was feeling and doing. When I collected him at the end of the day
he was very happy with the whole experience and couldn't wait until his next session. He made loads of friends in his time there and did loads of unique and fun activities, bringing home some lovely pieces of art he created such as a dragonfly made from sticks and leaves. Myself and my partner have been so impressed with the practice that we book him in every half term and he is very excited to go.

Chestnut Nursery School is a fantastic nursery. The staff are so dedicated to the wellbeing, happiness and development of the children. My son has thrived during his year there, made many friends and always comes home happy. The facilities are fantastic and they do something different and fun every

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.627)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.627) out of 10 for Chestnut Nursery School @ Norwich Research Park 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 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 4.814 for Chestnut Nursery School @ Norwich Research Park is calculated as follows: ( (298 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 322 Ratings = 4.814
  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 4.813 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chestnut Nursery School @ Norwich Research Park is based on 26 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 160 number of registered child places is 32. 26 Positive Reviews ÷ 32 = 0.813
  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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2017

I have been working in childcare since 1989. I left college and started my career as a nanny. Having children of my own made me rethink my childcare career and I decided to become a childminder. When my children began their early learning I went on to further my education and started working in Pre-schools, which is where I worked my way from being a practitioner to becoming a Leader. I now have a BA Degree in Early Years and am an Early Years Professional. I have always had a deep connection with children and feel a great sense of accomplishment in helping children achieve and enjoy their learning journey throughout their early years.


Working with children always gives me so much joy, inspiration and happiness. My vision for our nursery is to enable every child to reach their full potential and to do this I have a strong, highly qualified team with a range of experiences and qualities that create a warm and welcoming nursery environment.
