Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife and I have been so happy and impressed with the care and attention our daughter has received since starting at the Apple Daycare at Wild Hill. They always meet us with an enthusiastic smile in the morning at drop-off and we've seen our daughter settle right in and is excited every time she goes
to nursery. The site itself is also in a lovely countryside location with immediate access to nature and outdoor spaces. The daily updates - either in person when collecting her, or via the app which includes photos of her playing and interacting - is greatly appreciated and gives us such a lovely insight into her day there. It was definitely a bit nerve-wracking when we were looking at different nurseries to whom we'd be entrusting the care and development of our daughter, but we could not have made a better choice and we are so happy with the Apple Daycare team and everything they provide - we would definitely recommend them to any parents looking for a safe, happy, and stimulating environment.

My child has been at the nursery since 1. The staff are all lovely and she has built strong relationships with them, often excited to see them each day. The staff go to great lengths to set up lots of activities including dedicated shaded areas during the hot summer days, sports events on the tennis
courts and participating in various engaging sessions such as dance or singing, sometimes facilitated by external entertainers. Overall, she thoroughly enjoys her time there.

The team at Apple Day Care Newgate street are exceptional they are very loving, caring and helpful .They truly understand each child's individual needs and nurture their growth through imaginative play and thoughtfully designed learning activities. We appreciate the daily updates and delightful photos
that keep us connected to our child's experiences. Communication from staff is outstanding.
We have noticed a huge change in our child's speech which is amazing for the short time he has been there. My child loves going in to nursery and loves seeing everyone. The nursery boasts impressive outdoor areas, including access to a nearby park, allowing children to enjoy fresh air and active play in all weather conditions. Fresh, home-cooked meals the variety is amazing our child is quite picky and they always go above and beyond to make sure they are catered for. We would wholeheartedly recommend Apple Day Care to any family looking for a nurturing, enriching, and well-run early years setting.

Apple Daycare Will Hill is fantastic! The setting is very spacious and relaxed, with a wide variety of indoor and outdoor activities for the children. The staff make sure there is a good mix of adult-led educational and fun tasks, as well as having child-led time to explore independently. We've had
some lovely arts and crafts to bring home and keep, and the staff go the extra mile to know your child and their interests. Each day we receive a detailed update of the activities, food, sleep, and nappy changes, along with photos, which is so reassuring when you are not with your child. The staff are so lovely and I am very comfortable leaving my son in their hands because I know he's being well looked after and having fun! He often doesn't want to leave to go home!!

Wild Hill Hall is managed by a warm, genuine and highly knowledgeable team. Most of the staff moved over when the physical setting transferred, so they have many years of experience and they have created a cosy, caring space, which our daughter loves. The garden space is being expanded and improved
at the moment, and we're told there will soon be a forest school section using the woodland.
Apple Daycare have a "no bad weather, just the wrong clothes" ethos, which has been great for our daughter. They have puddle suits for the children and bundle them up and get them outside every day that they can.
The nursery itself is well appointed, clean and bright, with lovely toys, tough trays of incredibly creative sensory play, books and loads more. They have a visiting music and dance teacher too.
The relationships built by these guys and the children means you know they're cared for not just physically, but emotionally too, and it shows in how comfortable and confident the children are.

An amazing nursery! In the beginning I was very nervous leaving my children but the management and staff are absolutely amazing and always reassuring - updating me. If I ask for any tips they're always ready to help. Always friendly and happy with greeting both parents and children. My kids started
with limited speech and now are able to form sentences in less than a year of being at Appleday Care Newgate Street. A wonderful learning environment!

We are absolutely delighted with our daughter's experience at Wild Hill! From her very first day, the care and warmth shown by the staff have been exceptional. Every morning, she goes in happily and comes out full of stories, songs, and laughter!
We've been amazed at how much she has developed in such
a short time. Her confidence has blossomed, her language has grown so much, and she's forming lovely friendships. It's clear the team put so much thought and care into creating a space that is not only fun and engaging but also supports each child's learning and emotional growth.
The range of activities offered is fantastic. From messy play and outdoor adventures to stories, music, and creative projects. We truly couldn't have asked for a better nursery experience. Wild Hill has given our daughter such a strong, joyful start to her early years, and we feel incredibly lucky to be part of such a nurturing community. We recommend it wholeheartedly!

We are so grateful for the brilliant care our son receives at Wildhill. From the beginning, we've felt completely at ease knowing he's in such kind and capable hands.
The staff are really amazing - warm, attentive, and genuinely care for your child which was a huge thing for us when selecting a nursery
for our son. Every day he's welcomed with big smiles and reassurance, we've really seen him grow in confidence because of the environment they've created. Recently we had a new baby and they have really supported us as a family to help our son with the transition - they really do go above and beyond!
A special thank you to his key worker for being such a positive, supportive part of our son's early years and we will without a doubt be sending our daughter when it's time for her to start nursery.

We love sending our child to Wild Hill. He toddles in with a smile on his face to be greeted by such lovely staff. And as excited as he is to see us at the end of the day you can tell he's sad to leave. We get some amazing photos showing him learning new things and having fun with the staff. When we
had our settle in session the staff had taken the effort to learn his name and knew that he liked playing with cars. It's a lovely atmosphere and we're so pleased to see how happy he is there.

Our little one has just started at WildHill, the staff are warming, kind and always keep us in the loop with how the day is going and how he is getting on. He has only just joined nursery at 16 months and although he still cries a bit when I leave I know he is in such good care and the tears don't last.
The staff always respond promptly to my questions and I'm really pleased I chose WildHill.

Our son has been going to Wild Hill since February and it is his first setting that he has been to and I am so pleased he has settled in so well! The team at Wild Hill are so accommodating, ensuring that if we had any queries, they would be dealt with quickly. We love that everyone we have met has been
so welcoming and loving towards our son and to us too! Communication is fantastic which helped settle nerves for us as first time parents. One of the main things that we love about Wild Hill is the activities that they provide, they are exceptional! We found that our son has come on leaps and bounds since starting and feel that it's down to the opportunities that Wild Hill provide. Thank you so much for everything you do!

My daughter has been at Wild Hill since May, and I cannot recommend enough! She is thriving and I am so impressed with how well she has settled in. She's

My little boy has been coming here since his first birthday in March and I've been so happy we picked apple daycare. I viewed loads of nurseries and wasn't sold on a lot of them but got a great feeling when viewing Wild Hill and have been so glad since we went with it even though was a bit further away
for us! All the staff are so lovely and kind which is so comforting knowing your little one is being looked after with love! My little boy took a little while to settle which I know is completely normal for most regardless of the nursery but the staff were amazing and reassuring which made it so much easier for me and now I always look forward to seeing the pictures from the day as I can tell how happy he is and how much he enjoys his days which makes being back at work so much easier! Thank you to all the lovely staff at Wild Hill for all you do.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Apple Daycare! From the very first day, the staff have been so welcoming, caring, and supportive-not just to our daughter, but to us as parents too. It's clear how much love and attention goes into everything they do. Our daughter absolutely loves going
to nursery each day. She's always excited to go in and comes home smiling and full of stories. The environment is nurturing, fun, and thoughtfully planned to support each child's growth and confidence. We've seen such amazing progress in her development since starting at Apple Daycare-particularly in her speech and communication. Her vocabulary has grown so much, and she's now expressing herself clearly and confidently. It's been a joy to see her personality shine through even more.
The team really takes the time to get to know each child, and it's clear they are passionate about helping them thrive. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful place for our daughter! Highly recommend

After scouring every single nursery in Hertford; I'm so glad I found Apple. My son has been there since he was 1. starting at the "House" and has spent the past several months at "Wildhill."
Everything has been perfect. Even at the start - his settling in sessions where the emphasis was purely on
his welfare, settling in and getting to know him and now to understanding what he is interested in and tailoring his learning towards that interest. Every request I've ever made has been honoured with the upmost care. Dietary changes/nappies/change of hours/ the odd extra day. The team and bond my son has with them makes me feel less guilty for leaving him and gives me one less worry while I'm at work. He's excited every day to go and see them. I know his day is fuelled by good food, people who care, fun learning and alot of fresh air when he wants it. Such a gem of a place. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.959)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.959) out of 10 for Apple Daycare Wild Hill 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 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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 4.959 for Apple Daycare Wild Hill is calculated as follows: ( (472 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 491 Ratings = 4.959
  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 Apple Daycare Wild Hill is based on 41 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 41 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.
