When I was looking for a nursery I was looking for one that the staff were as caring and loving as if they were their own child and that's what I instantly felt at Flowerpots Boxmoor my son loves it! The class rooms are lovely bright and colourful, They do so many different fun activities to keep them
busy also have a lovely garden which they use lot which is great for my son as he loves being outside rain or shine! My son has a food allergy and Flowerpots are very good at meeting his needs also have home cooked freshly made meal! My son learns something new everytime he comes home from nursery, couldn't recommend Boxmoor enough

Our son joined nursery as a baby and has flourished in his time at Flower Pots. The facilities are good and the team on site and friendly and caring. We have been really happy with the experience and how our son has developed.

The staff are really caring and put on a wide range of activities for the kids every day and also take them out into the garden almost every day. Our daughter was quite reserved but the girls have put in a lot of effort to help her come out of her shell and feel comfortable there and it's really paid
off and is helping her development. They are responsive to any questions and provide good daily updates. They seem to have a varied and healthy menu of fresh food. Really pleased with the setting!

The staff there are wonderful. We love seeing our child grow and joyfully wander in to such an immersive and safe space. The food is so good that our child often has double portions, and talks of missing the staff

My daughter has been coming to Flowerpots Boxmoor for just over a year now and to say her learning, speech and overall personality has come on leaps and bounds. She wasn't too keen on nursery at the start, very much a home girl but the team at Flowerpots went above and beyond to support her when she
came in. Fast forward 4 months and she couldn't wait to go to nursery every Monday and Tuesday! Her development in terms of speech and motor skills has come on so much and we are very grateful for the Boxmoor team on how they have aided her and supported her. Everything is communicated via the app, so we get pictures of her throughout the day and also know when she is having a nap, when she's had her nappy changed and what she's eaten - their daily menu is packed full of yummy goodness too and has really helped us at home with new flavours. Can't recommend the nursery and team enough.

My son loves his days at Flowerpots. He started when he was just 10 months and settled into the baby room really quickly. He's now coming up to 2 and loving getting involved in the activities in the toddler room and playing in the newly renovated garden. All the staff have been amazing and know him
really well. He always comes out happy and chats about his day and his carers and friends. The app is great for getting the necessary daily updates like sleep, food and nappies and we love seeing pictures too. He always eats really well and the menu is really varied. Would definitely recommend flowerpots to other parents.

I've been so happy with Flowerpots Nursery in Boxmoor. My son loves attending. The staff all know him well and are very supportive in those days when he needs a bit of encouragement to go in.
They have a great space and they get the kids out in the fresh air multiple times a day (weather permitting).
Really great.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Flowerpots Nursery. From the moment you drop your child off, it's clear that the staff are genuinely nurturing and supportive. They take the time to understand the child as an individual, providing just the right balance of care and encouragement.


One

of the things that sets Flowerpots apart is how they stretch and challenge children in a way that feels natural and empowering. Whether it's through creative play, problem-solving activities, or early learning, they gently guide children to explore their potential while building confidence and independence.


The garden is a real gem - a beautiful, safe, and stimulating outdoor space where children can run, explore, and enjoy nature. It's clear that outdoor play is a valued part of the day, and the children absolutely thrive in it.


Overall, Flowerpots Nursery is a warm, welcoming place where children are truly supported to grow, learn.

Flowerpots Boxmoor have been great since our daughter started in October 2024. She took a while to settle into the setting but the staff were really patient with her. She really enjoys her time there and I'm still surprised about the range of activities they do with her. Her development has come on
lots since starting there. We really appreciate the regular feedback we get from the nursery on and the staff are really caring and attentive to all of the children.

My three children have attended Flower Pots Boxmoor. We all love the environment and staff are so fruendly and caring. We have never had an issue in all these years. Our youngest is in the toddler room and he is so happy to go every day. At nursery they have a nice routine and children settle so quickly.
Staff listen and support parents every day and are always happy to accomodate children's needs. Couldn't ask for more.

Our son has been attending Flowerpots in Boxmoor for almost 3 years and he/and we have had such a great and positive experience. He settled in really quickly due to the staff being so caring and reassuring to us also, he enjoys going every day and has made a some lovely friends.
They spend lots of
time in the garden which he loves and we get regular updates via an app so we can see what he has been up to and detailed reports on his development.
They have been super accommodating and careful around his dietary requirements and flexible with last moment requests, the manager and the team are very personable and attentive.
I have already recommended this nursery to friends with littluns who have now signed up. It will be very sad when he leaves the setting for school!

My experience with Flower Pots Nursery has been nothing short of wonderful. Both of my daughters currently attended this nursery, and I can't praise the staff enough.


My youngest started at just 10 months old, and naturally, the transition was quite challenging for her. In the beginning, she struggled

with being away from home, often crying when we dropped her off. However, the team at Flower Pots was incredibly compassionate. They took the time to comfort her, cuddling her until she felt secure and fell asleep. It was so heartwarming to see how much effort they put into making her feel loved and safe during those early, difficult days.


My eldest daughter (3) absolutely adores the nursery! She loves to role-play with us at home, making us pretend to be her carers on the weekends. This speaks volumes about the nurturing environment they have created.


Variety of food is brilliant! I also love the app and updates on education.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.901)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.901) out of 10 for Flower Pots Day Nursery (Boxmoor) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.901 for Flower Pots Day Nursery (Boxmoor) is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 274 Ratings = 4.901

  • b) 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 Flower Pots Day Nursery (Boxmoor) is based on 23 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
