Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the moment we stepped into Dove Tree Montessori Nursery, we were impressed by its warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff exuded confidence and professionalism, instantly putting us at ease.
One of the most remarkable aspects of Dove Tree is the seamless transition for our child. Our daughter
settled in without a single tear. She was eager to explore the inviting environment and engage with the staff.
The nursery's outdoor space is truly a gem. The garden is thoughtfully designed and our daughter loves to explore the natural surroundings. It's heartwarming to see her develop a love for the outdoors.
Another highlight of Dove Tree is the emphasis on healthy eating. The nursery prepares delicious and nutritious homemade meals, which our daughter always looks forward to.
As parents, we feel incredibly lucky to have found such an exceptional nursery for our daughter. We highly recommend Dove Tree Montessori Nursery to any family seeking a high-quality, child-centered education.

Dove tree has become a massive part of my baby-to toddlers development and journey. She has learnt so much from their input in her care. Not only do I trust them to look after and keep my daughter safe whilst I work, but they take a keen interest in her learning and development. They take note of her
likes and dislikes and really personalise the activity they do with her. Would recommend the nursery to anyone who asks! I couldn't be happier with our decision to send my daughter to Dove Tree!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is the perfect nursery for my little boy! It offers independence to grow at the child's own pace with no assumptions on what a child's timeline should be. The children's individuality is celebrated and children are stirred to learn in their own way! The staff from this chain of nursery's are exceptional
child carers I have never seen so much care thought and kindness go into everything they do! It truly is a magical experience for you child and anyone who is lucky to get a place will see as their baby grows! I wouldn't trust any other place for my child to go. The management put so much into training the staff and making sure the recourses are thier for the staff to create amazing activities. I always see such exciting things on blossom. My little boy will only eat certain foods at home but I'm blown away every time I see a dish he's tried and eaten more than one potion of. My little boy is always happy when I drop him and pick him up!

Dove Tree is a fantastic place and we love the Montessori approach. Our son is 18 months and has developed so much since he has been at the nursery: the time they spend on modelling and developing children's independence is excellent.


The staff are really helpful and welcoming - they are keen to

offer further advice and support where they can. Our son settled quickly and can't wait to go each morning. We're really happy with the range of activities on offer to engage children. Each activity is purposeful and skills-focused and we love the updates and pictures that we receive.


Dove Tree is a brilliant place to send your child and you can rest assured that they will be in great hands.

I can't say enough good things about Dove Tree Montessori Nursery! My little boy has attended the nursery since it opened back in February and he has absolutely loved every single second of being there. His independence and confidence have grown massively since attending and it's down to the hard work
of the staff.
The nursery has such a positive, calm and friendly vibe and it's really reassuring as a parent. Not to mention it is such a beautiful, well-presented nursery. Every single staff member from the management team all the way down to the cook go above and beyond for the children. Providing them with great care, amazing experiences and delicious meals! My little boy adores everyone there. It feels like I am dropping my child off with family! I couldn't recommend it enough.

Dove Tree has been a wonderful Nursery for my 4-year-old. They treat her like a unique child and care for her like their own. She has built positive connections with key worker and all staff and is learning so many beautiful things. They are always busy with activities and also helped with potty training
exactly like I was doing at home. I am also going to send my 2-year-old for a day here as well as Dove Tree has built so much trust with me. Now my child also loves their food and so happy to see her progress, I am glad she will be doing a bit more days now after being on the waiting list for a while. My husband and I love Dove Tree for our children even though it's about 20 20-minute drive from us. Such a calm and unique setting. The staff are extremely professional and loving.

We are so grateful for the wonderful experience our daughter has had at Dove Tree since April 24. The staff are trained in Montessori principles and create a warm, nurturing environment where the children can grow at their own pace. The classrooms are thoughtfully organised, encouraging independent
learning and fostering curiosity. Our daughter has developed cognitively, socially and emotionally since joining. She has built her confidence, communication skills, and made several friendships. The communication with parents is also great, with regular 'golden moments', photos, and updates on the app 'blossom' keeping me up to date on her daily activities. There is a great outdoor space, perfect for exploration and exercise. Overall, Dove Tree has exceeded our expectations. Our daughter is happy, engaged, and thriving in such a supportive, inspiring environment. We highly recommend it to any parent seeking a holistic, Montessori-based education for their little one.

Very good nursery. Can already see developmental improvements after a few months. All staff are very friendly and really active with updates on the nursery app (pictures and time-stamped activity updates). Great variation of meals with a balanced diet.

Dove Tree Montessori Nursery is a wonderful place to send my child to. I had such a great experience with all the staff members, taking great care of my child. All very professional and nice people. I also liked the variety of games and curriculum activities they do with my child to help him with his
development. They also monitor his development in various ways, language and fine and gross motor skills and they report it very frequently. I highly recommend this place to all my friends.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.964)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.964) out of 10 for Dove Tree Montessori Nursery 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 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.964 for Dove Tree Montessori Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (347 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 360 Ratings = 4.964
  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 Dove Tree Montessori Nursery is based on 30 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, which has been reached with 30 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.
