The care and attention our daughter has received from the entire team has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment she joined, she has felt safe, supported, and encouraged to explore and grow. Each day she comes home full of joy and new words, eager to share what she's learned, which is a
true reflection of the nurturing environment created by everyone there. The team consistently shows warmth, patience, and genuine care, treating each child as an individual and taking the time to understand their unique personalities and needs. We've watched our daughter grow in confidence, independence, and curiosity - she is truly flourishing thanks to the thoughtful and structured approach the team provides. What stands out most is the balance of professionalism and heartfelt care that defines every interaction. As parents, nothing matters more than knowing your child is happy, safe, and thriving, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found a place where that is genuinely the case.

Excellent nursery for babies to pre nursery.
I was immediately impressed by the staff's enthusiasm with supporting a child's early year's development and also the quality of the food. I love that my daughter gets homemade food that is not ultra processed and without refined sugars.


The learning

is all centred around imagination and as a parent you get regular updates on your child's naps, nappy changes and food. You also get pictures each week and a summary on how their development levels are, as well as tips to support their home learning environment.


My daughter, who is EBF and fed to sleep, naps easily with the amazing team in the room. She gets really excited as we walk up to the nursery which is comforting!!..
The garden is large and they rotate between the classes so each group has the reign of the garden, including sandpit and mid garden.


They also go on little excursions to the market and they learn about the fruit and veg.


The team are outstanding, too!

We could not be happier with our little one's start to nursery life. The staff and facilities at Kinderzimmer Berkhamsted are five star and every day she comes home happy and exhausted from the stimulation and exertions. Zero criticisms and every praise for her keyworker so far.
All of that said, prospective
parents beware. Unfortunately the journey to our first day was incredibly frustrating. The organisation's lack of communication was appalling and the opacity of the waiting list policy was a total enigma. Head Office's refusal to apologise or engage in constructive dialogue added insult to (significant) financial injury.

Reply from Katherine, kinderzimmer Team at kinderzimmer Berkhamsted

Thank you for your review and we're so pleased to hear your little one is settling in well at kinderzimmer Berkhamsted - it's fantastic to hear you have zero criticisms of the team. We do apologise for your experience with the Support Office and the lack of communication whilst you were on our waiting list; we have made steps in the right direction to improve this for all of our families, but we know it was not seen personally for you. We continue to take every piece of feedback on board to better improve our processes and communication points.

I'm so happy to have my daughter here. Knowing she's in such a beautiful and enriching environment. The staff are extremely knowledgeable, kind courteous and conscious of my child's needs and interests.
During my time spent at work, I'm frequently updated throughout the day and receive pictures of
the activities she's engrossed in, always with the most beautiful smile on her face. It's the highlight of my day.

Absolutely thrilled with this nursery. From the outstanding facilities and the bespoke rooms catering to each age group to the amazing and attentive staff. I could not be more pleased with how my daughter has settled in.
Her speech has progressed so well, she’s learning amazingly through play which
is ideal.
Her excitement upon arrival is a testament to the fantastic experience we’ve all had since she started at Kinderzimmer.
I would highly recommend it to friends and family alike.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.918)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.918) out of 10 for kinderzimmer Berkhamsted is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.833 for kinderzimmer Berkhamsted is calculated as follows: ( (73 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.833

  • b) 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 4.085 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for kinderzimmer Berkhamsted is based on 7 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 = 3.7

    • ii) 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 91 number of registered child places is 18.2. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.2 = 0.385

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
