Situated in the heart of the Edwinstowe community, on the edge of Sherwood Forest is Cherubs Edwinstowe. Cherubs Edwinstowe has been providing high quality early years care and education for children since March 2019. Spread across 2 floors, 3 age-appropriate rooms and with a Baby Garden and large outdoor space for children to enjoy - this nursery really does tick all the boxes. The nursery prides itself on its community links and was shortlisted for Community Nursery of the Year in the Nursery Management Today Awards (2020).

Their approach to early years, inspired by Montessori, Hygge, Reggio and Forest School has been reflected in the look and feel of the nursery and translated into the broad and ambitious curriculum for children. Children’s learning is planned and tracked using Blossom Educational software - and parents are encouraged to be part of their child’s nursery experience by downloading the parent’s app.

Cherubs Edwinstowe is an all-inclusive early years provider, fees are inclusive of:
1. Biodegradable nappies and wipes - from Kit and Kin
2. Sun Cream
3. Healthy snacks and meals
4. Amazing extra-curricular activities including Forest School, sports coach and baking/cookery sessions

Children and their families are central to everything at Cherubs Nurseries. To support parent partnership, the nursery has its own Family Room. Here parents are encouraged to get together with other families, meet with the nursery team and even work from the nursery. Every morning parents can also get a tea or coffee to go - making those early drop offs a little easier!

If you’re looking for a real community nursery with a home from home feel, Cherubs Edwinstowe is the nursery for you.

Review from Daniella C (Mother of Child) published on 1 December 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Leaving my child at Cherubs is like leaving him with family. The team are so great. The Manager Sarah is so knowledgeable and professional. The early years educators have a challenging and tiring job but they have a great energy and the nursery does loads of extras. My son had thrived there. They keep
up to date on the app really well and they do great observations on his progress. Its always daunting taking your child to nursery you want them to be cared for and happy and cherubs definitely provides that and is worth every penny. The chef is brilliant too, she makes a variety of food and my sons seems to be enjoying the food. Highly recommend Cherubs Edwinstowe.

My child has been attending the nursery since June 2025 and we are extremely happy with our experience. When she first started she didn't speak any English, but the transition went smoothly thanks to the incredible support from the staff. Both my daughter and I were given so much are, especially during
the first few weeks when she would cry. The team was always there to reassure making us feel welcome and supported. A big thank you to all the staff for your kindness and professionalism.

Review from K B (Mother of Child) published on 29 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children have attended Cherubs's for a couple of years each since 2021. They have absolutely thrived at this nursery. The staff are attentive, caring and nurturing. I have seen my children's confidence grow, their social, physical and emotional skills develop and they thrive in a nursery environment.
The nursery has great resources, including indoor and outdoor and has recently had a lovely refurb. The menus are excellent and the updates we get through nursery in a box are fantastic. We are given regular observations,reports and opportunity to sit down with staff at a parents evening to discuss my child. All of which relate to the EYFS curriculum meaning they are ready for school when this comes round.

I have previously had my daughter in another nursery and it doesn't have a patch on Cherubs. Management and staff are friendly and always help. And my daughter is so happy here. The app is helpful and puts my mind at case knowing what she is doing.

Lovely nursery, the staff look cuter my child like he is their own. They look after his needs and nothing is too much for them. Being able to see what my child is getting up to throughout the day and seeing pictures of him is a great bonus here too!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are kept well up to date of our granddaughter's progress, via our family messaging group. I am extremely impressed by the efforts of staff to both educate and stimulate her. When we visit we regularly pick her up from Cherubs at the end of the day. The staff are friendly, courteous and efficient.
The levels of security/safeguarding are impressive. There is a definite 'caring' atmosphere, which is obvious, from the moment we are allowed onto premises. Trust needs to be earned usually, but I can honestly state that my trust is implicite in all at Cherubs.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since both my children started at Cherubs Edwinstowe back in June 2022 they have loved every session they have attended. It didn't take long for them to settle in and I feel this is down to the excellent staff who made them and continue to make them feel so welcome. Both my children have fantastic relationships
with the staff and other children. They always come home happy from nursery and are happy to go to nursery. I would highly recommend Cherubs Edwinstowe to anyone looking for a nursery for their child. We have never had any issues and both I and my partner are able to go to work with peace of mind knowing our children are happy and being well looked after in every respect. Thank You!

The Edwinstowe team have made us feel very welcome and our daughter enjoys her nursery days very much. She is building confidence and the team have helped her settle into her new environment with ease. We appreciate how informed we have been about our daughter's activities and it is so lovely to see
her happy and smiling in photos on the app. A huge thank you from our family!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.995)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.995) out of 10 for Cherubs Edwinstowe 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.995 for Cherubs Edwinstowe is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.995
  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 Cherubs Edwinstowe is based on 18 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 18 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.

Job Title: Assistant Head of Nursery Joined: 2019

Hello, I'm Rebecca - Assistant Head of Nursery at Cherubs Edwinstowe. I have been part of Cherubs Nurseries since 2019, having the pleasure of working across multiple nurseries. I hold a Level 3 in Management and a Level 3 in Childcare. I have always been incredibly passionate about the early-year sector and find it incredibly rewarding.


I have been the Assistant Manager for the past 5 years, having worked my way up from an Early Years Educator. Thinking about my favourite activity, it would definitely be a role-play one because there are so many different scenarios and learning opportunities to be had. It also encourages the children to explore their interests and communicate with one another.
