Review from K L (Mother of Child) published on 14 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I highly recommend this nursery! From the moment we visited, I felt welcomed and assured. The staff were incredibly kind and took the time to address all my questions. She settled in so well, and it's been wonderful to see her grow and thrive in such a nurturing environment. My daughter was a very picky
eater when she started, but with the staff's patience and support, she's made huge strides! She now tries new foods, which I never thought possible! The nursery team truly goes above and beyond to encourage each child's development, not just in eating habits, but across all areas. The setting is lovely, bright, clean and full of engaging activities. My daughter enjoys going to nursery everyday, and I feel completely confident in the care and attention she receives.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has being going to Mindful since January and I can't recommend them highly enough. The care they provide for my child is second to none, my daughter goes in happy and always comes out smiling and telling me about her day and what she's been learning. I can see such a difference in my daughter
with her speaking and all other areas too. The nursery staff are honestly so caring and accommodating, they help and advise on things I'm unsure about as a first time mum.
The nursery is beautiful and clean and you can see that all staff have such pride in working there.
We honestly love the nursery a lot and I'm
so glad my daughter first nursery experience was at mindful.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A wonderful, kind, warm, atmosphere. The main reason I picked this one and I've seen many! Also it's the same company as another setting who are a very established brand, so you're safe in knowing they have been going this for many years!
Mindful nursery serves veggie food, and cares about where food
comes from, getting the children involved in baking and fun activities.
You use the app to keep track of what they are up to during the day, and my son has settled in superbly, despite being 13 months old. I found the transition harder than he did!
I would recommend this nursery to anyone

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.495)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.495) out of 10 for Mindful Nurseries - Addiscombe 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 6 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 4.986 for Mindful Nurseries - Addiscombe is calculated as follows: ( (71 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.986
  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 4.509 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mindful Nurseries - Addiscombe is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 33 number of registered child places is 6.6. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.6 = 0.909
  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.

Kirsty

Kirsty Savage

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2024

My name is Kirsty, and I am the Nursery Manager at Mindful Nurseries, Addiscombe. I am very excited to be part of the opening of this setting, where we can provide a safe and secure environment for young children to thrive and develop an understanding not just of themselves, but also of those around them.


I have worked in early years for over 16 years, and during that time, I have taken on many roles—from starting as an apprentice to becoming a room leader, and eventually working my way up to manager. I am incredibly passionate about early years because the care and support we provide, not just for the children but also for their families, is so important in helping to bring out the best in every child we care for.


I have three children myself: an 18-year-old, a 9-and-a-half-year-old, and a 20-month-old. I enjoy spending time with my family and going on little adventures with them, as you never know where the day will take us! I also enjoy going to the theatre (even though it's been a while), reading, and spending time with friends when possible.
