Review from Natalie C (Mother of Child) published on 12 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Both our girls attend this nursery - one in preschool and one in the toddler room. The teachers are amazing in both rooms. Not only are they very attentive, they care about the kids and want the best for them. My girls are quite sensitive and sometimes find it hard to part in the mornings, but the staff
has helped me find ways to make the drop off easier. By the time I pick them up, they don't want to leave! They have so much fun, eat well, do fabulous activities included in the cost. The children are all happy, go to the staff easily, they are learning new things all the time and the nursery is clean and a fun and safe place to be.

My daughter has been enrolled at Sutton Day Nursery for about a year. I would recommend it wholeheartedly - the staff, management, activities and variety offered are all excellent. We will continue to send our daughter there for so long as we remain living nearby.

My son has been going to the nursery for over a year and I am happy with how he is looked after.


At the end of the day my son does not want to come home and runs away from his dad at collection time as he is having too much fun. They do loads of fun activities and the girls are lovely, caring and

do genuinely want what's best for the children.


The one thing that drew me to the nursery was how clean and tidy it is and how children were going up to staff members for cuddles, which to me is a great sign.


The management is good as they listen to parents and deal with any issues or concerns quickly and in an efficient manner.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have complete confidence in the staff and services this nursery provides. Each morning my daughter races to her shoes and attempts (unsuccessfully) to put them on herself as she can't wait to go to nursery. After she gets dropped off in the baby room, I know that she is being taken care of with
plenty of interesting stimulation. The room is well equipped with many varied areas and toys, and the food must be great because she tends to eat everything there. The room is secure and there are always multiple staff available. My daughter will definitely keep going to this nursery until she starts school.

Review from Hannah R (Mother of Child) published on 1 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Choosing a nursery is really difficult and can be a daunting time for any parent. You want the best care and essentially a home from home where you child will be loved and cared for with a variety of activities, in order to support their learning and development. I can honestly say that Sutton Day Nursery
ticks all the boxes! We are delighted with how the team at Sutton Day Nursery look after our son, especially considering the complex health needs he has as well as the food allergies. Both of which have been accommodated with no problems.
The staff are friendly, approachable and supportive. I know that when I drop him off in the morning I can go to work without worry and they do a fantastic job with all the children there. My son comes home happy and looks forward to going to nursery each day.
The activities that the staff provide are educational and stimulating and this has allowed my son to progress ahead of his peers. The Nursery has the right balance of space and feels homely and inviting for children. All childcare is expensive however, with Sutton Day Nursery the access that they have to additional facilities on site provides excellent value for money.
The atmosphere amongst the staff at Sutton Day Nursery is great and the management have great relationships with staff and parents and are always available to talk to should you need. Communication home is brilliant and you feel that you are a part of what is happening. Sutton Day Nursery has a parent partnership where parents can contribute their ideas and feelings about what they want to see happening which is taken incredibly seriously by the staff.
Location wise it’s excellent and has great parking facilities which are a huge added bonus for dropping off and picking up! I know that it’s a fantastic place but don't just take my word for it go and have a look!

I am extremely pleased with the Nursery as a whole. The staff are friendly, supportive, understanding and very good with the children. My daughter has been attending the Nursery for over a year now and she is very content and happy. Her progress and confidence has grown and I am sure the staff at
Sutton Day Nursery have contributed to this. If I have any queries or problems, I am always treated with respect and understanding and any problems are sorted quickly and efficiently.
I would definitely recommend this Nursery to my friends and family.

My daughter is very happy in this nursery. She has been here since she was 18 months. Must congratulate all the staff for being a guide to my daughter. She has learnt a lot and has started socialising. Great nursery. Also very kind and good nursery chef. Well done to the Manager and team.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.189)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.189) out of 10 for Better - Sutton Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 10 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 4.621 for Better - Sutton Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (106 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.621
  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 4.568 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Better - Sutton Day Nursery is based on 10 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 88 number of registered child places is 17.6. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.6 = 0.568
  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.
