Review from S M (Mother of Child) published on 16 August 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started after lockdown and she spent there almost two years. She was going at Hampstead Baby Care Nursery Monday to Friday.
Every day she was happy playing with friends and doing activities.
The facility is small and very well managed. Excellent cleaning, delicious food and the extreme
care of babies and toddlers.
The management is professional, very attentive to the kid's needs and also good to reassure parents.
I strongly recommend Hampstead Baby Care for babies and toddlers. The kids will learn a lot in a family-friendly environment with a high standard of teaching.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryThank you so much for this amazing review. It was very rewarded to see your daughter grow and develop so much. We are very pleased to know that you are happy with the care we provided and wish you a lovely holiday! Thank you again.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My youngest son went to Hampstead Baby Care Nursery from June 2022-August 2023. From 1 year old to just over 2 years old. (Hampstead Baby Care Nursery didn’t exist unfortunately for my eldest he went to a different nursery)
Hampstead Baby Care Nursery is so loving and caring. The managers are like
no other nursery managers I’ve come across - they are so thoughtful and inviting that you feel you’re leaving your child with family. The kids become independent (age appropriate of course) and love learning and exploring. I also love how we parents are invited to the most wonderful celebrations like Christmas or Mother's/Father’s Day. We are always welcome inside the nursery (still not a given for some nurseries/schools even though Covid is long over) and it’s precious catching them for a split second frolicking in their element. I hold all the staff at Hampstead Baby Care Nursery in high esteem and will remember my son's time there so fondly. I cannot recommend this small nurturing nursery more highly.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryThank you so much for your fantastic review. He will be so missed very much and we wish you all the best for the future. It was wonderful to see him growing and developing at our nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hampstead Baby Care has been the perfect starting point for my sons education. From the moment I stepped into the premises as an expecting mother I instantly was confident this was where I wanted to send my son. As a teacher of Early Years, I could see the vision for the nursery and was so excited for
my son to join.
When it was time to send my 12-month-old boy to nursery, I felt confident in the care he would be getting by the staff.
Every day he is greeted with love and care from not only his fantastic key worker, but all of the staff, which makes me a first-time parent very at ease with leaving him there.
They provide fantastic learning opportunities and real-life experiences such as watching ducks hatch. They involve the family community so well, inviting us to a Christmas meal and also a Mother's Day music session.
I would not want to send my son anywhere else. Thank you to the manager and your team.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryRuby,
We are so glad to know that you are enjoying our team and the nursery and we are grateful for trusting your son to our care. You made our day sharing this positive feedback.
Thank you so much! Sofia

Review from Marie B (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at Hampstead Baby Care Nursery when she was six months old - she was so small, but they took such great care of her. Definitely, the best place to start for a young one.
I was very concerned about her sleeping pattern and the fact that it could be noisy, but she got used to it really
quickly - she had good naps over there.
She stayed for ten months - she has been looked after very well. We were really happy. We are missing the place and the professional so much.
As for the outdoor space, they don't have a private one - but kids are going out most days in the closer parks, and it is really safe and great for them.
We can only recommend this nursery - if we were to move back into the area, with no hesitation, we would definitely go back to Hampstead Baby Care Nursery.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryWe all miss your daughter very much and it was very special to have her since such a young age. Thank you so much again for your wonderful words and we wish you all the family a great new journey!

Review from Laura A (Mother of Child) published on 12 January 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son stayed at Hampstead Baby Care Nursery for a year and we couldn't have been happier.
All the girls are very professional, caring and respectful to the different cultures and languages; as well as the management who is always available and present to check on us. They were all incredibly sweet
and we will miss them.
We were kept informed with daily notifications in the app, posting photos and messaging or calling us if anything important had to be communicated. The carers were also writing reports on our son's development, identifying his achievements and next milestones. They showed great care for the parents, inviting us to participate in events, workshops and helping us understand our child's changes.
The nursery has many learning toys, often doing artwork, Spanish music lessons and encouraging them to exercise.
We would recommend anyone to join this nursery. We left in tears after seeing how this amazing team took great care of our son and we couldn't be more thankful to them.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryDear Laura
Thank you for your wonderful words about the team! We much appreciated and we could not be happier to have your son at the nursery during the last year - it was great to see him growing and developing and he is already very much missed! Hope you settled well and wish you a Happy New Year. Sofia

10/10 recommend. Truly the most fabulous nursery of all time. The manager and her staff are incredibly kind and caring towards the children (and parents!). Our daughter loved attending nursery here and we were terribly sad when it came time to relocate and find a new nursery. The manager and her team
will always hold a special place in our hearts, they were the first to care for our precious daughter after we returned to work.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryDear H C
Thank you so much for your kind words. We were sad to see her leave and I hope you settle well in the US. It was great to see her having fun, being happy and learning. I am pleased we had the chance to be a little bit part of your lives. All the best, Sofia

Review from Ana A (Mother of Child) published on 22 September 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Hampstead Baby Care Nursery since she was 10 months old.
She started in the baby room, only a few mornings per week and currently she is almost two years old and attending the toddlers' room every day - we love it and she loves it!
We all feel at home there, it's great to see
how happy she is to go to nursery every morning.
They have a great routine, which includes outings to the nearby park, loads of activities related to current events or festivities.
The staff is super engaged and you can see that they try their best to nurture each child's potential to the max.
My daughter loves the food there and, as a Nutritionist, I am also very happy with the diversity and quality of all meals.
I definitely recommend Hampstead Baby Care Nursery!
5 stars.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryHello Ana,
Thank you so much for your review. It was a pleasure to see her develop and enjoying her time here. Your daughter will be very much missed and we wish you all the best in your new journey. Keep in touch! Sofia

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son went to Hampstead Baby Care for one year. He was very happy there and I couldn't be more grateful to the staff who are really exceptional and took great care of him. It's a nurturing and bubbly environment and my son asked to go to the nursery even on the weekends! I also liked the variety of
activities - music circle every morning, outings, reading and sensory play. The only reason why we left is because we moved too far from the nursery. It was a hard decision, the nursery was a second home to him.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryDear Raquel,
Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to see your son grow and develop and he will be missed very much!
All the best on your new journey and see you soon.

Review from Ashley O (Mother of Child) published on 12 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hampstead Baby Care Nursery is a fantastic nursery. From day one management and all of the staff were dedicated to our daughter’s development and ensuring she was engaged throughout the day. Each activity was well thought out, with a purpose of enhancing the children’s social, cognitive, or physical
well-being – of course always with fun in mind. Our daughter came home singing new songs, enhancing her vocabulary, and overall was extremely happy. As the nursery is small, management is attentive to each child, focusing on individual needs. You can truly tell the owner has a passion for teaching and is extremely dedicated to the nursery. We would strongly recommend Hampstead Baby Care, particularly for younger children, and hope the nursery continues to successfully grow with time.

Hampstead Baby Care was an excellent choice for my daughters. The staff are very caring and work hard to make the children feel happy and comfortable.
I can't recommend this nursery enough, it was an ideal first nursery and the food offered was also very good.

Review from Jonathan D (Father of Child) published on 11 October 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hampstead Baby Care is a recently opened nursery in South Hampstead. The staff are warm, the nursery is well-designed and cosy, all the equipment is brand new and the teachers have a hands-on approach, taking personal care for each and every child. The nursery itself is small but very inviting.
My
little daughter, two and a half years old, started there recently after a long time that she had no daycare arrangement, due to the pandemic, and the teachers are very patient with her, showing her lots of love. She goes to nursery happily and never stops talking about the teachers, the activities and her day.
The owner/manager had worked for many years in a top “big brand nursery” and during the pandemic has taken the initiative and decided to open her own place with her own personal approach concept.
We are really happy there and would highly recommend you joined.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurseryThank you so much for your kind words, we are delighted to know that you are both happy with the high-quality care we provide for your daughter. She is a bright young girl and she is enjoying her time at the nursery. Thank you again, Sofia

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A fantastic nursery and setting for younger children. My daughter was incredibly happy to attend Hampstead Baby Care Nursery for summer childcare and enjoyed the variety of activities, stations and set-ups prepared daily. It was clear that a lot of thought went into the activities for the children in
terms of learning themes and for their interests. The staff are incredibly caring and attentive, I could tell as my daughter warmed to them from the start. Management is professional and the app system in place was well run keeping us updated. Despite the nursery having just started, we were offered a great experience from day 1 and can definitely recommend Hampstead Baby Care for reliable and quality childcare.
Reply from Sofia Palma Carlos, Nursery Manager at Hampstead Baby Care NurserySarah, thank you so much for your fantastic review. We were delighted to have your daughter attending the nursery during summertime and hopefully, we will see her again.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.945)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.945) out of 10 for Hampstead Baby Care Nursery 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.945 for Hampstead Baby Care Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (362 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 382 Ratings = 4.945
  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 Hampstead Baby Care Nursery is based on 32 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 35 number of registered child places is 7, which has been reached with 32 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.
