Village End Nursery in Ascot was chosen out of 2078 early settings to receive the prestigious award.

This award is based on nursery reviews from the children’s families and carers on the review site daynursaries.co.uk.

All facilities were rated on overall standard, facilities and outside space, learning, resources, equipment, resources and equipment and ICT, care, activities, staff, food and nutrition, management, cleanliness, safeguarding as well as value for money.

Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of daynurseries.co.uk, said: “We would like to congratulate Village End nursery on being rated by parents as a top nursery in the Southeast!

"Being chosen as one of the best nurseries in the UK by family and carers of children that attend the setting is a huge achievement.

“Our award is recognition from parents and carers that this nursery is offering their children a high standard of care that is key to their social and emotional development as well as their learning.

"We hope these awards give parents that much needed guidance in choosing the right nursary for thei child."

This is Village End's third year running in the top 20. 

Olivia Fielder, deputy manager at Village End Nursery, said: “I’m so proud of what my wonderful team of practitioners have achieved over the past year, and to once again receive a top 20 review rating on daynurseries.co.uk, especially when up against over 2000 other exceptionally operated day nurseries in the South East of England, is just super special.

“I truly believe that our 10/10 review score that has awarded us a top position on the Berkshire nurseries review table for three years running is not only due the professionalism of my team, but also our flexibility.

She added: “Parents are able to download the Village End app, open a credit account and start booking ad hoc childcare the same day. Parents who have children aged 18-48 months can truly take control of their childcare costs by booking childcare on an hourly basis and then extend, cancel or swap a booking at the push of a button.

“I would also like to wish our class of 2022 graduates the very best for the future, it has been an absolute pleasure supporting them during their time at Village End helping them to achieve their goals and we can’t wait to hear all about their adventures at big school.”
