My Son loves it in Pixieland Saltash.
The staff are so polite and friendly.
I’m happy with the security they have so I know my son is safe.
Even when my son is poorly he misses school.
I would recommend Pixieland to all mothers.

My son has been attending the nursery in Saltash since he was 10 months old and seeing him grow and develop has been amazing. He is now in Toddlers and he loves the staff and enjoys his days at the nursery. He gets a variety of activities to stimulate him and he loves coming home and telling me what
he has done. Brilliant nursery

After viewing nurseries in the area I opted for this one as it was the best.


This nursery isn’t cheap, but then, none of them are. So it’s an average price for the service in the Saltash area.


My little girl enjoys herself while she is there. She has been attending since she was 1 1/2 (she is

now almost 3) and I intend to keep her at this location until she starts school at 4 years old.

We’ve had children in Pixieland for the last 9 years. All three have gone through from babies with our youngest now in little Todd’s.
We wouldn’t put our children anywhere else. The staff at Saltash are all especially lovely.

Both of my children have been in the care of Pixieland Saltash since around 9 months of age- my eldest went through all of the ages/groups in the nursery and started primary school this year with masses of both confidence and skills he could take to school.
My youngest is in Preschool and thoroughly
adores his time there and all of the staff he has grown to know from yeah of the rooms he’s passed through- and is always filled with stories about his day!
The staff are warm, friendly and really know my child’s personality and interests, which gives me peace of mind and regular updates of activities he’s been doing and skills he’s learning. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery and all of the staff in it. Thanks for taking such wonderful care of my boys!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 8 month boy has just started and the team have been inviting, friendly and have gone the extra mile to ensure I was happy with my decision of Pixieland. Everything is tracked from their naps, changes and feeds which lets me know he is being looked after. I completely trust the team to know what is
best for him. During the introduction stages it was extremely important for them to understand how we (Mum and Dad) feel and what our expectations are. They will adapt to your child’s needs. I feel that Pixieland has made a friendly and safe home environment - with a lot more exciting activities than we can arrange at home. The food menu is brilliant and they are happy to cater to his needs as he continues to try new foods. From the team in the office, the kitchen team to the nursery team are all so friendly when I walk through. They genuinely love what they do and that passion shows through. Activities are educational as well as fun and all tracked. I cannot praise them enough.

Saltash, Pixieland is a lovely nursery. The staff are friendly and do an amazing job with making a connection with the children in their care. My ten month old son seems to learn something new every time he goes to nursery. He loves the staff and when I drop him off each morning he has the biggest smile
on his face. I couldn't ask for a more caring environment for him.

Our son comes out every day with a massive smile talking about everything he has done. He has come on in leaps and bounds with his talking. He knows lots of shapes, colours and can count easily to 20 and on his fingers. The girls in the pre school room are fantastic not just with him but us aswell.
Brilliant place, keep up the amazing work.

I have been blown away at how amazing everyone at Pixieland, Saltash is. My little girl loves going to nursery and experiences so many different things there. All the staff are brilliant and so friendly. They have high security so you know your child/children will always be safe. They eat well, the
food always smells fantastic and lots of healthy dinners. I also love that they have so many different rooms with different activities - never a chance for the children to get bored and they get them outside in the gardens whenever they can. My little girl always sleeps well after a day at nursery! Thank you to everyone at the Saltash branch.

Pixieland offers a very welcoming and caring environment for our child which enables us (parents) to go to work without any worries. Staff always provide detailed information about the day and will phone if necessary i.e. if the child is unwell. It is lovely to receive updates and photographs of our
child's learning journey and staff genuinely care about the children providing them with stimulating activities in a safe and well-equipped setting. We are thoroughly pleased with Pixieland and are glad to have chosen them for our child.

3 of my children so far have attended here. Have been extremely happy with the nursery. The boys always enjoyed going and the staff were always very kind and caring. My 3rd son recently attended and has special needs. Was extremely pleased with all his care given and happy to leave him in their care.

Would highly recommend Pixieland, Saltash to all my friends with babies. My son has been there for about 4/5 months now and he enjoys himself every time he attends. He has never cried when I have dropped him in and to me, that shows he feels safe and loved by his baby teachers. The nursery is always
clean and all the staff are always happy and go out of their way to say morning or bye.


Thank you Pixieland for helping my son come on leaps and bounds.

My son started at 9 months old and is very sociable. He loves being around the staff and children and enjoys all the activities provided for him. The staff have been extremely supportive in relation to his late walking and helped in every way possible.
He especially enjoys using all the different facilities
on offer the sensory room and garden playing with the balls are big hits for him.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.400)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.400) out of 10 for Pixieland Day Nursery - Saltash 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 3 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 Pixieland Day Nursery - Saltash is calculated as follows: ( (35 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 35 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 3.4 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Pixieland Day Nursery - Saltash is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.15
  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.
