This is the first nursery that we saw when we decided to out in daycare. It's a very cosy place, gives a homely feeling to him. He has settled very well in this place. He has started to learn things and I can see his progress. The staff here are very friendly and they take good care of him.

To all the staff at Snowflakes Day Nursery, all we feel today about you is love. I can't thank you enough for being all amazing in everything you did for our daughter as well as for us the parents. Thanks to you our daughter have become a social, independent, very well educated and confident in everything
she is doing, but most importantly she is a happy child. Our daughter said I give everything at nursery and I don't want to go to another school. I'll definitely recommend you. Thank you for being always there when we weren't. You will always stay in a special place in our hearts.

Snowflakes Day Nursey have been all we could have wished for in a nursery. I have visited many nurseries but this one is absolutely the best! Snowflakes have always been the second home for our daughter. They have the best staff in the town and my daughter never stops talking about the key persons,
staff and her friends at home. Her daily activities are updated via an app and briefed by ever-smiling staff at the time of collection.
Our daughter has developed in so many ways. She is more confident and balanced and loves going to the nursery every morning. She looks forward to meeting her key person every morning. We love all the teachers who are warm, caring and very professional. I would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents. Thank you so much for making the difference. We will miss the nursery very much.

The staff at the nursery are very polite and professional.
I feel like my child is very well taken care off. The Montessori is great and has really made a difference as well as the care that they have with potty training.
The only negative thing is the staff change over.

My son is going to Snowflakes nursery for the past 3 years now. I have seen lots of good changes in him from when he started. He never used to talk to other kids or play. He was a very quiet kid. He used to cry when I used to take him but now he keeps asking me to take him to nursery. He is a more confident
person now, he plays with others, he has a few good friends there and also 2 favourite teachers. There is nothing I would change in this nursery as everything is just perfect. Thank you Snowflake team for everything you have done for my son. He always talks about what he did in the nursery and says he loves nursery.

My son was at Snowflakes Nursery for over 2 years. He has had a great time in the company of wonderful teachers and made plenty of friends. The premises were recently renovated and are in beautiful clean condition with areas for learning and playing organised well. The recent subscription eyLog app
has been really nice to see what our son gets up to during the day with his friends. He was helped with his eating habits, potty training and interactive play over the years. Since the new management, we have been invited to sports days, Christmas plays and graduation to name a few.


The staff are all very caring and get to know your child like their own. My mind was at peace knowing my son was being well looked after. The nursery were very organised and prompt to call and inform us of our child was unwell.


I would highly recommend this nursery to my friends and family as a wonderful place for a child to grow up in! Thanks again for all your efforts and hard work!

The nursery provides excellent care and I find my child is learning every day. He is happy, motivated. He is encouraged to be independent. He is well cared for. I find he is well stimulated and is learning plenty. His speech is improving all the time.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our daughter started Snowflakes last August and we feel this was the best decision we made to change her to Snowflakes. The teachers and staff are great! And the nursery has a warm and friendly atmosphere. The nursery manager is always willing to listen to our feedback and welcomes and encourages suggestions
and improvements from the parents.
I would highly recommend this nursery. Our daughter is very happy and has settled well.
She even talks about going to nursery on a weekend as she misses her teachers and friends. Snowflakes have actively encouraged our daughter to be independent and her confidence is growing day by day. Last month we got the opportunity to read some stories to the children one afternoon. This was so rewarding and we look forward to being invited again! Thank you to all the staff at Snowflakes.

My daughter started a year ago after having a bad experience and changing her from another nursery and it was the best decision I made. She loves it here and has made so many friends. The staff are warm, friendly and very good at their job. I don’t feel I need to worry when I drop her as they look after
her like their own.
If I could give this nursery an 11/10 I would, I’m also looking forward to putting my second child to be looked after here.
Best nursery around.

Snowflakes is such a lovely nursery. We send our daughter to this nursery. We are so happy and content with the care she receives from the staff and what they do at this nursery. We get daily updates on how our daughter is progressing and what she has done throughout the day. The staff are very nice.
Lovely people. Highly recommended.

Snowflakes has been such a breath of fresh air.
Both my older children went to a different local nursery but after multiple recommendations I sent my youngest son to Snowflakes.
I am so glad I did.
The environment is so welcoming.
All the teachers clearly care about the children.
My son is learning
so much.
He already knows more of his letter sounds than my older daughters knew when they went to Reception.
When I drop him off in the morning I don't worry because I know he is in a safe and happy environment.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Snowflakes.

I am so glad we chose to send our son to Snowflakes.


He comes home every day singing nursery rhymes and telling us the amazing activities he got to do. Even if he didn't tell me, the the teachers give me lots of information at the end of every day about what he has got up to. I can see him learning

so many new things. You can tell that the teachers really care about the children at Snowflakes.


Go Snowflakes!

I highly recommend Snowflakes Nursery! The staff are great, they really helped my daughter settle in and gave me a great peace of mind and reassurance when I went back to work.
When you visit the nursery, it really feels like the staff care about each child.
They have varied and fun activities every
day. My daughter loves it and is excited to go in every morning.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.800)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.800) out of 10 for Snowflakes Day Nursery & Montessori 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 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 Snowflakes Day Nursery & Montessori is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 108 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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Snowflakes Day Nursery & Montessori is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.9
  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.
