Review from David R (Father of Child) published on 6 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
St Margaret's nursery was recommended to us by a friend who's child also attended and we are extremely happy with this recommendation. We were very impressed with the structure in-place to develop the children throughout their time at the nursery and our son has thrived here, and he very much enjoys
his time at the nursery.


The nursery staff are great, we couldn't have wished for a better team who keep all parents well informed and we have enjoyed the engagements with the team to hear how our son in developing within the nursery.


Brilliant nursery with great staff - highly recommended.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We couldn't be happier with our experience at St Margaret's nursery. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are incredibly caring, professional, and genuinely invested in the children's development and well-being.
Our child has thrived here,
developing socially, emotionally, and academically. The daily activities are well-structured and thoughtfully designed to engage young minds, and there's a great balance of indoor learning and outdoor play in their beautiful, safe playground area and also in nearby gardens.
Communication with parents is excellent. We receive regular updates, photos, and progress reports, which really help us feel involved in our child's day. The nursery also puts great emphasis on healthy meals, diversity, and kindness-all values we strongly appreciate.
Highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing, stimulating, and safe environment for their little one. Truly a gem of a nursery

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.375)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.375) out of 10 for The Nursery at St Margaret's 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for The Nursery at St Margaret's is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 5
  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 3.375 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Nursery at St Margaret's is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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 40 number of registered child places is 8. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.25
  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.
