Woodberry staff show a lot of support and understanding in hard moments, they are very supportive and caring.
I really trust that they are one of the best nurseries around and look after the kids, working closely with each individual.
Highly recommended!

Since my child has been at Woodberry Waterlooville his confidence has grown every day, his speech has improved. They even help and supported us through potty training. I love that we get updates during the day using the app, it keeps us informed about everything.

Woodberry Day Nursery has been fantastic since my daughter joined up in January. The staff there are welcoming, kind and pro-active. The nursery facilities are amazing and having onsite healthy and nutritious meals, saves me so much time and gives me peace of mind that she is eating healthily. The app
is fab. We get regular live updates and pictures of what our daughter is up to. She gets involved with lots of activities. She has told me how much she really enjoys it at nursery too and she is fond of the staff. I would absolutely recommend this place.

I was worried about my son starting nursery as all he knew was lockdown but it went really smoothly right from the start and he was settled in, in no time. My son loves spending time at nursery and adores the ladies there who are always lovely to deal with.

I would highly recommend Woodberry Day Nursery to all parents. We were stuck for childcare and Woodberry were brilliant at accommodating our son at the last minute. They invited us to have a view of the nursery and were brilliant at ensuring that we adhered to the COVID measures, that are currently
in place. The site is clean and well maintained and all the little ones were so happy to be there. They have a fantastic app which is updated throughout the day and you can see your little one (which is great for parents like me who miss their little ones during the day!) Thank you for everything Woodberry.

My daughter loves Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd it’s so lovely there. She comes home and talks about some of things they do and we enjoy looking at the app together. I can’t thank the staff enough, they have been so supportive with my daughter and her eating. She is trying new foods and
not just sticking to the same things.

My son started at Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd three weeks ago and I cannot fault the team. Everyone is so welcoming and my little one is always happy to be handed over, he does sometimes cry but the staff always re-assure me that he is fine. I love the app, it’s so handy and a great way
for staff and parents to keep in touch. Even in three weeks I have seen such a positive change in my little one and I’m so pleased I chose Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd.

All the staff at Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd have been very understanding of the ever changing needs due to the pandemic and have help my two year old settle in quickly, after a move from another nursery. She always comes out happy and tells me about her day. The setting is very clean
with lots of appropriate toys and the food provided is great and my little one always eats it happily.

The staff at Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd are very caring and the actual nursery is very modern, clean and a great environment! I particularly like they have an in-house cook that provides nutritious food and means I don’t have to worry about sending in food from home.

My son started nursery in January. He is now almost eighteen months and we love the nursery. The staff are lovely and so welcoming. They have been very helpful to me on numerous occasions. They noticed a slight delay in my sons social and communication skills and upon my approval, have put plans in
place straight away to help bring him up to speed with his peers. I really couldn’t recommend the nursery enough.

Since the very first contact with the Woodberry group, prior to Waterlooville being built, to our little girl starting, we have been impressed every step of the way. They have handled the current climate brilliantly with very child-led settling in and we have been kept updated every step of the way.
Their Famly app is superb and we love having updates throughout the day plus regular milestone checks and more. The nursery has only been open a month and is starting to feel like a community, with great ideas posted to keep us busy at home. Most importantly, our little girl loves it. The team are fantastic and we can see they really take an interest and genuinely care. The setting is beautiful - we highly recommend to anyone considering a nursery/preschool in this area.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.885)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.885) out of 10 for Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.900 for Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (63 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.9
  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 3.985 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Woodberry Day Nursery (Waterlooville) Ltd is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 78 number of registered child places is 15.6. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.6 = 0.385
  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.
