Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery is so welcoming the staff are lovely and happy, my son loves going to nursery, he settled so quickly he feels so happy and safe. And the bond he has with all the staff is so special.
The app is so nice to see what he's been up to do during the day,
The meals are all fresh and bakes are
all homemade which is so good.


The activities are so great and educational but at the same time he's having fun.


The nursery is always clean and tidy.


Can highly recommend

I have been with Ashbourne Mawsley since they opened, but the manager and some of the other staff have been my children's childcare since 2016 under the previous nursery.
My daughter leaves this year and am devasted that we can't take the staff with us. I feel so safe leaving my children in their care
knowing they love and care for them like they are their own. I couldn't recommend them enough and am going to miss them very much, as will my daughter.
They are more than just a nursery provider they are extended family and friends. I have a great bond with them all, including the most amazing chef, as does my daughter. 100% 10/10 nursery

Both of my children love coming to this nursery and constantly talk about the staff and their nursery friends whenever they aren't there! Their confidence has grown since coming to the nursery and they really enjoy all of the activities that they do throughout the day. The girls who work at the nursery
are lovely and very welcoming to both children and parents, and the lady who prepares and cooks the food is brilliant - my children love the food and seem to eat a lot more of her cooking than they do mine haha!

During the period our son has gone to the nursery I cannot fault any part of it. He loves going and looks forward to seeing his friends and the staff. The food is great, varied and good value. Whilst at the nursery his speech, counting and knowledge has grown, he's definitely benefiting from the friendly,
fun atmosphere generated by the staff.

Wonderful nursery. Both of my boys love all the staff. Everyone is so warm, friendly and caring. So patient and understanding especially during the settling in period when they first start. Will do whatever is best for your child. They communicate well with each handover and between the different rooms.
Highly recommend!

Both my kids are going to Ashbourne nursery in Mawsley and they absolutely love it. The team is so caring and made settling in for both of them a very smooth experience. My kids go in happy and come out happy, and have created really lovely connections with the team and with other children. I feel so
at ease dropping them off in the morning and know they are in the best hands, being looked after and loved.

As a first-time mum I was very nervous sending my 10-month-old to nursery but as I had to go back to work after maternity leave and my partner also working full time I had to, from our first nursery visit and meeting the team at Ashbourne Mawsley I felt at ease, a couple of months in and all my nerves
have gone, I love receiving updates during the day of my child and reading what he had for lunch, I love that they make food fresh on site every day, the team are so lovely and my son really enjoys going to nursery, if you're thinking of putting your child into this nursery I would highly recommend it.

Our little girl started at nursery in December, after never really being away from me or her dad for more than an hour or 2. The manager and another member of staff in particular have been absolutely fantastic in helping her settle and now she's happy to walk into nursery with no tears. The food options
are great, lots of activities and regular updates from the staff made the transition smooth for both me and my little girl. There's always a smiling face to open the door and we couldn't fault the team, they're all brilliant.

We looked around a number of nurseries before deciding on Ashbourne and I couldn’t be happier with our decision.
Every member of staff is lovely and clearly takes excellent care of our little girl. They communicate really well with us and I find getting updates throughout the day on the app really
useful. I love getting the pictures as well - it always looks like she’s having such a good time.

My son started here in January after having attending another setting between September and December. We could not be happier with our decision. Our little boy goes into nursery happily every morning and is cheerful and content when we collect him in the afternoons. He is learning so much and tells
us all about his days with enthusiasm and excitement. The staff are amazing. His allocated key worker is a gem who shares little stories and snippets of his day whenever I see her - my little boy adores her! The commitment to the children is obvious from every staff member you interact with; everyone is friendly, professional and so nurturing toward the children. Can’t recommend this setting enough- it’s like a home away from home for my little one.

Since our son started at Ashbourne the staff have been very welcoming with the nursery itself in a clean and tidy condition (considering it’s a nursery that’s high praise). We are kept well informed of our son’s development and general well-being via the app and during drop-off and pick-up.
Our son
has quickly become accustomed to the nursery as a result and has a wonderful time while there! He sleeps well after nursery!

I can't recommend this nursery enough. My little girl attended from the age of 1 and has recently left as she has started school. They certainly gave her the best pre school years! My little boy has recently started with them. He is a very clingy child. They have invested a lot of time in him to make
sure he feels comfortable. The staff are what makes the place amazing! They make you and your child feel like family.

My daughter has been attending Ashbourne at Mawsley since it opened and she loves it! She has developed so much since attending nursery and really enjoys being there. She has made a lovely friendship group with the other children at Ashbourne and she is very comfortable with all the staff members. The
nursery always seems very clean and inviting. The food they provide for her seems to go down well too, as I often hear she has had second helpings. They have a lovely little outdoor space too and close access to the local park. All the staff have been friendly, welcoming and supportive and I couldn't recommend the nursery enough.

The Mawsley staff at Ashbourne Day Nursery are incredible. I find it difficult leaving my daughter with anyone, but they have made the transition easy and don't mind how many times I check in throughout the day.
My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since attending here, the level of attention and
care the staff provide is nothing less than outstanding.
We have gone from my daughter crying at drop offs, to her running in smiling without looking back, this is such a big thing for me, it starts my day off right knowing she is having fun and is happy when I leave her.
I can't thank the staff enough for all that they do, simply amazing! Highly recommend this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.940)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.940) out of 10 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Mawsley 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.940 for Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Mawsley is calculated as follows: ( (156 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.94
  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 Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Mawsley is based on 14 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 14 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.
