Review from A P (Mother of Child) published on 3 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
This nursery was not meeting my child's needs and deliberately delayed early intervention for almost a year despite several requests. In the end, the local council got involved and encouraged me to take my child out to a much better quality setting. Unfortunately, the delays were enabled by the SLT
and Head and then covered up so they are not honest or supportive. The nursery manager is not honest at all or caring and has an aggressive bullying streak and encouraged bullying against parents. I wouldn't recommend the early years setting at all to any parent under this nursery manager. The key workers however were always very caring and went above and beyond to the best of my knowledge. I believe the upper years have caring teachers but the nursery is just a business and operates separately to the primary years hence why they did not care at all about my child's needs which need to be flagged to OFSTED.

My son has been attending here for just over a month now and the improvement in his speech and sharing and listening as improved. The care they give the children is amazing and the setting is clean with plenty to keep them occupied. The food selection at lunch is also amazing. I would recommend this
nursery/school.

WPS has been a very positive experience for my child. The staff are kind, caring and intuitive. They listen to the need of parents and child and put support in place quickly and effectively. The preschool does an excellent job of preparing children for school - teaching them phonics, maths and rules
as well as embracing fun and enjoyment with forest walks and dancing. Very happy with our experience.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Warlingham park nursery is warm, welcoming and the staff are truly wonderful. My one year old daughter has settled so well. If there are days she's feeling off colour or upset the staff are brilliant. I leave knowing she will be cared for and within minutes I'm updated with happy, smiling pictures,
which is so reassuring before a day at work.
The activities are varied and stimulating. She eats and sleeps well throughout the day.
I can't recommend it highly enough.
I also have a daughter in Year 2 who also absolutely loves the school. As a family we call it the hidden gem in Warlingham!

Our daughter has loved being at the nursery from the age of 1, where she was in the baby's room. She's now moved up to the nursery and they carry out so many great activities with the children, keeping us parents updated via the app.
She goes in happy every day and sometimes doesn't want to leave!!

We have been very pleased and impressed with the nursery from day one. The staff are kind and inviting. We appreciate the level of care and attention given to our daughter when she settled in. To the extent you have any concerns or issues, the staff are there to talk anything through with you and suggest
approaches to tackling any issues quickly / effectively which we appreciated. We have yet to lose any clothing and our daughter comes back looking as clean as can be after a full day - it's a small thing but having experienced another nursery I really appreciate it as a parent!

We couldn't be happier with Warlingham Park. Our first child had a fantastic experience here, and now our second is thriving just as much. The progress in their learning, development, and confidence has been incredible. The staff are so caring and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment
where children truly flourish. Highly recommend. They also have chickens on-site!

Review from C F (Mother of Child) published on 13 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my sons attend Warlingham Park nursery. We moved my eldest over from another nursery as we wanted him to have a bit more structure and learning to prepare him for school. We have not been disappointed - he is very happy and well cared for and is excited to go in the mornings. The staff obviously
care very much about the children and the access to school facilities is a wonderful bonus.
My youngest has recently started in the baby room and so far so good - the staff are very attentive and flexible to his needs and he has slept brilliantly for his naps.
My only criticism is the food can be a bit 'beige'. We've seen some improvements recently and management are responsive to feedback so hopefully things will get even better from now on.

My child has settled in brilliantly. I really can see the efforts of the teacher's support and commitment to the children's play and learning.
The environment feels warm, friendly, safe, and caring - everything needed for a child to thrive. Well done everyone, this is an incredible school. I am proud

We moved to Warlingham Park Nursery from somewhere else when our child turned two years old. We love the enthusiastic approachable staff and wanted somewhere our child could learn and develop in an environment that helps them be happy and confident. I would thoroughly recommend Warlingham Park School
with no hesitation - best decision we made!

We adore sending our daughter to Warlingham Park. Her teachers are on the ball, extremely caring, and they clearly love their jobs. My one and only criticism would be the food offering, which I can see has massively improved recently but is still quite meat heavy and quite a lot of processed foods such
as ham and white bread. Seeing her developing relationships and build confidence over the past year has been magical and I'm so grateful to the staff for making this experience so lovely.

I have had three children at Warlingham Park School, from the baby room through to pre-school. We love the setting and how the school has prepared our children for school being well ahead of their peers, but what makes this school exceptional is their staff, the way they care for the children like their
own and the fact they take an interest in the children outside of school setting too! I couldn't ask for anything more from the staff in the baby room and the preschool class, you take away the mum guilt of them being at school as I know they are safe and well cared for.

I couldn't be happier with our experience at Warlingham Park Nursery. My son is in preschool, they offer varied activities for children, including forest school and dance classes, tailoring activities to the children's interests and ages. Its a very inclusive and friendly environment, the staff are
always supportive of the children and adapt teaching for children learn through play in the early years, exposure to a school environment such as access to the library, cooking classes and IT have a good grounding of school life before heading to reception.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.714)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.714) out of 10 for Warlingham Park Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.714 for Warlingham Park Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (236 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 287 Ratings = 4.714
  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 Warlingham Park Nursery 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:

    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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 23 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.
