I have seen a massive improvement in my son's physical, emotional and social development since attending the nursery. The staff are very kind, thoughtful and polite. My child's needs are met. Everyone goes above and beyond. I am so happy to have placed my child in a thriving and successful nursery.
Thank you for everything.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sunflower Nursery has been an amazing experience for my two children. I trust them and always know that they are in safe hands when I drop them off. Both my children settled in quickly with one member of staff in particular. She has a motherly touch which my children love. Another member of staff has
been amazing in the butterfly room. My child absolutely loves her and feels comfortable with her. They love coming to nursery and we will all be very sad when the time comes for them to leave.

My daughter loved Sunflower Nursery. The staff are very nice and friendly. She learned so many good habits and manners from her talented aunties. They always made her feel comfortable and secure around them. She loved one auntie in particular still talks about her, she is amazing.

Review from Meriem Z (Mother of Child) published on 7 May 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a great nursery and I’ve noticed many improvements in my child’s speech and language, as well as social skills since attending. The staff have built a great relationship with my children and I have the utmost trust leaving my children in their care. My children have become more outspoken and
always leave with a smile on their faces at home time. The children engage in many educational age-appropriate activities that are fun and beneficial for them and I can keep track of their progress on the app. Overall, I’d recommend this nursery for any parents who is unsure about what childcare arrangements to organise for their children, the staff receive you well and treat you with respect!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attended here a little while ago and I remember when she finished at Sunflower and entered year 1 she was already ahead of most of her class! I was very impressed with what she had learnt and when she left, she cried so much! This is how I know she really enjoyed it there. They did everything
from going on local trips and made sure she felt included. Can't fault the nursery, the staff were warm and welcoming and I personally didn't have any problems. They catered to our needs and I had a really happy experience with them.
Thank you ladies!

I couldn’t rave about this nursery enough! I’ve sent both my boys here and have highly recommended it to all our family and friends. It’s very hard to find a nursery that ticks all the boxes and feel happy and safe with sending our children here. The staff have been amazing! You can tell it’s not just
a job for them and they genuinely care for all the children at Sunflower.

I absolutely love Sunflower Nursery since my daughter's time (2014) til now, my son (2003).
This nursery has always been very accommodating. My daughter loved it as soon as she went in. When I met the staff I knew I would be here forever! The manager has been magnificent in understanding my needs and
taken full responsibility of my children. All the staff are amazing. The nursery since, has had a massive upgrade and looks even better than before. I look forward to resending my son again this September. I would choose nothing other than Sunflower Nursery!

Review from Saba S (Mother of Child) published on 30 April 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attended Sunflower Nursery who wasn’t eating very well. He was also very attached to me which meant that limited me on things I could do. After two weeks with the experienced staff he started to eat meat and pasta he took leaps in his learning and started to walk. He struggles to be comfortable
around other adults and build relationships with other members of the family apart from me. He absolutely loved going to nursery and we miss the setting very much since we have moved. The leadership do an amazing job they are flexible hardworking and ensure that children are provided with a variety of foods and many resources to stimulate development and build confidence in children. They ensure children eat well and get plenty of outdoor play. Thank you all for everything you did and continue to do on a daily basis and we miss you all since we have moved! Would definitely recommend this setting to anyone looking for experienced staff and excellent service!

Both of my children have attended this nursery and I have nothing but good things to say. Clear communication, kind staff and my children have been very happy here. Fresh food cooked from scratch and healthy snacks. Great indoor and outdoor activities planned for children. Making friends and developing
their social skills.
Both my girls developed great reading and writing skills.
I am one very happy parent with lots of happy memories from the nursery. I will keep recommending this nursery to all my friends and acquaintances.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.891)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Al Falah The Sunflower Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 63 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 63 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 4.891 for Al Falah The Sunflower Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (679 Excellents x 5) + (66 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 753 Ratings = 4.891
  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 Al Falah The Sunflower Nursery is based on 63 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 65 number of registered child places is 13, which has been reached with 63 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.
