Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending since she was a year old and absolutely loves nursery. The staff are all lovey and clearly enjoy the job and work well together. They do a good variety of activities and we've really seen her development come on in leaps and bounds.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Lovely dedicated staff. My son loves them. The only criticism I would have is that there have been quite a few people leaving and for a while there wasn't consistency in the carers, however this has now improved and we are much happier now. All in all a good nursery!

The nursery has made huge strides recently and although the building is awkward and the outside space dreary the staff are excellent and engaging and our children have thoroughly enjoyed their time there.

Review from U G (Mother of Child) published on 7 August 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Although there is a lot of staff changes going on at the moment my boy really likes going to nursery. To have male nursery staff available is a good thing too.
In addition to this, I think it's great that the children are able to learn another language (in our case Mandarin) when younger is better.
I'd like to get more involved though, with information sheets in the foreign language - as my boy is asking me to translate and I can't help.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Both my daughters have attended Magic Roundabout. They have always had fun, been well cared for, done a variety of activities and they learned loads. I would 100% recommend it as a nursery or pre-school setting. I cried when they left as the kids love it and the staff are so nice.

Review from C P (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Both of my sons have thoroughly enjoyed their time at this nursery, all the staff are lovely and caring and really know my children. However, I feel staff are being let down by management at head office and not offered the support and investment that they need. Whilst it appears more money has been
invested recently there is still a long way to go. Equally, management has decided to get parents to pay for this work in advance by increasing fees by up to 35% with a promise of future investment. Before this price rise, I would have recommended the nursery without question. Now I struggle to. Whilst I don't deter people, I also cannot recommend it.

Review from Joyce (Mother of Child) published on 8 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My daughter (2years) has been going to Magic Roundabout Bristol since she was 9 months old. She is very happy at nursery and that's most important thing to me as a mother. Even during the weekends, she shows me dance moves, counting 1 to 10 or roleplay she has learnt at the nursery, or she makes a pretend
phone call to her keyworker.


The staff are very lovely. Long opening hours. Lots of events are organised and lots of fun things they do with the children every day.

My nephew attends the nursery and since attending he has progressed so much. My nephew is always excited to go and never wants to leave, the staff are always friendly and welcoming, I would recommend this nursery highly to all parents looking for a nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.832)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.832) out of 10 for Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.860 for Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol is calculated as follows: ( (216 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 250 Ratings = 4.86
  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 4.972 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol is based on 21 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 21 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.972
  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.
