Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little one has just left Hopes & Dreams, ready to go to big school after 3 wonderful years. She has grown so much with the help of the staff who were always there to encourage, comfort, teach and listen to her. The staff were always accommodating, knowledgeable, kind and ready to help.
Our little
one has gained immeasurable confidence and skills to take her through to her next stage at big school. We are very grateful.

Our daughter joined the nursery when she was 18 months old. We are very pleased with the care and support she receives. She enjoys going to nursery, has made friends, and gets along well with carers. Her communication skills (fluent bilingual), curiosity, and physical abilities have developed superbly
over the 2 years she has attended nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Hopes and Dreams Montessori Nursery School for about 9 months now.
She is extremely happy and is very excited going to play and learn with her friends, every single day.
The staff are both very professional and also care a lot about the children. They are the key outstanding
strength of the nursery.
They have gone out of their way to make sure our daughter is happy on a daily basis and support her in her growth and development.
The children are engaged in many different activities, have the chance to taste many different types of food and are extremely well taken care of.

A brilliant nursery, run by wonderful people who really nurture and care for the children and understand how they tick. They taught our daughter all manner of things and made memorable events and moments for families.

Review from Thomas G (Father of Child) published on 21 February 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hopes and Dreams is an excellent nursery, which I feel confident saying, having had children attend several.
Our son is extremely happy at the nursery, and the staff and especially his key worker, are hugely kind and clearly care for him. He likes the other children at the nursery and often talks
about his friends and the staff.
The Montessori elements seem to engage him and are evidently extensive. In addition, the “core” play equipment is impressive - including his favourite climbing frame and kitchen area.
Whilst the nursery does not have any outdoor space, per se, the nursery does an extraordinarily good job both of using the spaces it has available, including the downstairs sports area, and most importantly the parks and library. The additional staff who come in for sport and music clearly add to the fun.

Review from N B (Mother of Child) published on 10 November 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We had a very positive experience for the 8 or so months my 4-year-old attended on an ad hoc basis using the drop-in service. We didn’t need fixed sessions or as much as the minimum requirement for a place so although significantly more expensive per hour, this gave me flexibility with days and timings.
I found the management and the team always accommodating and efficient in arranging sessions but also great with the kids. Things always felt organised and the nursery is a nice, bright, modern space. The kids seem to be exposed to a range of activities that are led by caring and engaging staff who seemed to know my daughter well despite our irregular attendance. My daughter also found separation very difficult and the team were excellent in helping to settle her. I would definitely recommend Hopes and Dreams.

I am extremely pleased with Hopes and Dreams Montessori Nursery School for my son. The teachers have been incredibly helpful and supportive in his progress and development. They show genuine care and kindness towards him, making us feel confident and happy with our choice.
The nurturing environment
at Hopes and Dreams has played a significant role in my son's growth. The teachers go above and beyond to provide a positive and engaging experience for the children. They understand each child's unique needs and tailor their approach accordingly.
I highly recommend Hopes and Dreams to other families seeking a nurturing and enriching nursery experience for their children. The dedication and professionalism of the teachers, along with the overall welcoming atmosphere, make it a wonderful place for kids to learn and grow.
Thank you, Hopes and Dreams, for providing such a positive experience for my son and our family. We couldn't be happier.

Review from Samantha W (Mother of Child) published on 8 March 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hopes and Dreams is an outstanding nursery, and I would recommend it without hesitation in the strongest possible way to everyone! Our daughter has attended in a 'drop-in' capacity, which has always been ideal for us as my husband and I run our own company, so our working lives are never the same from
one week to the next! This service has been gold dust, and the flexibility has been remarkable, thanks to the fantastic staff at the nursery. Our daughter's teachers and key people have been warm, patient and kind with her, and our little one is quite shy, so I was worried when we first started as to how she might get on without me. She has loved every minute of it, asking to go every morning and if it's not a nursery day, asking when the next one will be! The education, the activities, the staff, the food, the resources, the communication with parents and generally everything they do are second-to-none, and we are so happy we joined Hopes and Dreams - it is the best place!

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.231)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.231) out of 10 for Hopes and Dreams Montessori Nursery - Worship Street 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 5 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 4.898 for Hopes and Dreams Montessori Nursery - Worship Street is calculated as follows: ( (53 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.898
  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 4.333 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hopes and Dreams Montessori Nursery - Worship Street is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.833
  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.
