Raphael Nursery is a group of award-winning bilingual French nurseries. They are a family-owned setting. The Hammersmith branch is located only a short walk from both Hammersmith tube and bus station, making it the perfect spot for commuting families. The nursery welcomes children aged between 3 months and 5 years old. They open 51 weeks a year from 8.00am to 7.00pm.

They provide a living culture and creative exploration through the eyes of the child. By building on Montessori methods and linguistic arts, they have developed their unique curriculum. As a result, they prepare a child to excel in their foundation years.

The early years of a child's life are vital, they provide the foundations for thinking, communication, vision, attitudes and aptitudes and is the perfect time for children to learn foreign languages. Teachers at Raphael Nursery are French and English. These early years are ideal for a teacher to guide a child’s willingness and ability to learn. In the French nursery, bilingualism helps children to make sense of the world around them. It also helps them to discover the joy of communication.

A high level of academic achievement is a natural outcome in most Montessori schools and nurseries because of the supportive environment. All children are born with a curiosity to discover new things. They are eager to try and develop new skills in the world around them. Raphael Nursery combines Montessori methods and early teaching of a foreign language, equipping children with the right tools to thrive in their development within the bilingual French nursery.

Montessori is a dynamic international education platform. Through continuous observation and tailored approach, they strive to meet each child’s needs. By meeting physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional, children grow with excitement. In the bilingual French Montessori nursery, children blossom.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since starting at Raphael Nursery Hammersmith 9 months ago we have nothing but positive things to say. All staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. Always happy to help and go above and beyond for us when we have needed the support. We are fully confident every time we drop off our daughter she is
in a safe, fun and educational environment. We continue to look forward to her developing at Raphael Nursery.

Review from B P (Mother of Child) published on 30 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Raphael Nursery is a top-notch nursery. I couldn't be happier with the level of care and attention the children are receiving. Our daughter has been going there for 18 months (she started as a baby and is now 2 years old) and she has been absolutely loving it from Day 1. It is such a joy to see her
running excitingly every morning to the nursery!
I am profoundly impressed by how kind, caring and dedicated the staff is. They put a lot of energy into stimulating the children's development (wide range of activities daily), my daughter loves it! Also, they provide regular in-depth feedback to the parents (app for the child's daily routine, written reports, 1-on-1 meetings to review the child's development).
The nursery also encourages the development of bridges between the family and the nursery which creates a very friendly environment for both the children and the parents.
Finally, the food is cooked daily onsite with fresh elements.
I highly recommend it without any hesitation!

Our munchkin loves coming to Raphael Nursery to "play with my friends!"
The staff are very attentive to our little one who has grown up a lot since joining, they do many varied activities (parents get to see pictures from inside on the app), eat well, rest well, are cared for and loved. We are always
welcome, love that it is a bilingual setting and have seen its impact on our family. Thanks so much!

Thanks to Raphael Nursery my daughter's confidence and speech have improved since attending. The staff are very friendly and attentive and are always happy to answer any questions. My baby loves her key teachers, especially one in particular as she was really helpful during my baby's settling-in process.
Seeing my baby's happy face is a big relief for me.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started the nursery when he was six months old and he is a year now, he really loves it and I could his big smile when we appreciate at the door. He has lots of friends in the nursery and learns a lot, we are very happy with my child’s development. There is an app with daily updates which is
great and as a parent I am always informed of the learning activities including photos, food, nap timing, changes and so..
the staff is really professional and friendly. Clean and nice. The nursery is next to Hammersmith station which made easier to drop my child at the nursery and get the tube to work.

Our son transitioned from a previous nursery into Raphael after we moved house and he loves his new nursery. The staff are great and very caring, the kids do amazing activities that you get to see on a daily basis through the app and the artwork they take home and they have great facilities.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.992)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.992) out of 10 for Raphael Nursery Hammersmith 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.992 for Raphael Nursery Hammersmith is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.992
  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 Raphael Nursery Hammersmith is based on 21 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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 21 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.
