Pixieland Stoke has amazing facilities for all age ranges of children, from birth to 5. The nursery has been awarded a Level 4 in Healthy Eating in the Early Years and The Early Years Healthy Child Quality Mark. So from snack time to playtime, Pixieland children are extremely well fed both in body and in mind.

The sheltered, heated and lit outdoor area is spacious and suitable for the children to learn to ride bikes, use their imagination in the pirate ship and discover the world around them by growing and planting their own fruit and vegetables. The nursery has free flow for the preschool children so they can independently choose whether they want to play inside or outside.

The purpose-built soft play area allows the children to have gross motor play all year round. From drama and imaginative play to yoga and music instruments, there is so much for children to do.

The welfare of the children is of the upmost importance, through an exceptional key worker system, practitioners can ensure the individual needs of the children are met.

The staff are always so amazing. They have made my child's first few months so easy. From our first viewing till now, they have been outstanding. My child loves coming to nursery he runs most mornings. Jodie is his favourite and we are so happy with everything, keep up the good work.

My daughter has been attending Pixieland Day Nursery - Stoke since July 2020. We were nervous at first about leaving her in someone else's care but we couldn't have hoped for a better nursery. Right from day one we were left reassured that we could call at anytime to check on how she was doing. Our
daughter quickly became accustomed to her new environment and was clearly enjoying the variety of activities available. Two members of staff have been amazing and have formed a great relationship with our daughter. I was especially reassured on the few occasions I collected her and the member of staff that met me at the door didn't recognise me, so they got someone who did know me to check who I was before handing my child over. Our daughter is very well looked after and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to others.

I find this nursery absolutely fantastic! The staff are always very welcoming and friendly. My child has already come on in leaps and bounds developmentally and always has lovely stories of what she has done throughout the day.

My daughter started nursery at Pixieland when she was 4 months old. She's almost 2 now and is so bright and caring. Her social skills are remarkable and I don't doubt for a second that the staff at Pixieland plays a huge role in this. She loves nursery and I can tell the moment she goes in just how
happy she is. The staff in the nursery have taken such good care of my little one and I can't thank them enough.

All the Pixieland staff are so caring towards my daughter. I couldn't ask for more, she is really happy to go every day. We were apprehensive as we had not used childcare for 6 months due to lockdown. My daughter was welcomed into a fun environment and has ran back through the door every day since.

My son has been at the nursery for just over 6 months. He’d never been to a nursery before. From the minute he started the girls that work there have been nothing but lovely with him! He settled in really quickly and always looks so happy and at ease when I pick him up.
A great nursery!

My son has been at this nursery for over a year now and he has developed so well, from his social skills to his speech and language.
I moved him from a different nursery, and I couldn't recommend this nursery anymore! Currently pregnant, I will be putting this baby into this nursery when I go back
to work.
Highly recommended! My son hated going and since being at this nursery he goes in happily and is excited to go.
The staff have supported all requests I have ever made, such as potty training. As an anxious mother, I feel really assured that he is happy and being looked after well. Big up to the staff in the toddler room. Fab people and absolutely brilliant at looking after the toddlers.

Pixieland Stoke has been an important part in my daughter's understanding of the world.
My daughter started there around her 1st birthday and the people she has had care for her in all of the rooms have been brilliant. They show compassion, understanding of children and they are amazingly supportive.
I
wholeheartedly recommend this nursery, so much so that my son will also be attending.
The little lady my daughter is turning in to is because she has a good support network in nursery and at home.
Pixieland staff are very supportive and encouraging.
If you are thinking of putting your child/ren in this nursery, do it!

The staff in this nursery are absolutely amazing with my son, since he started there at 6 months old he has progressed so much and is meeting all of his milestones. The nursery keeps me up to date with emails reminding me of things to remember, special events going on in the nursery, also they inform
you if there are any illnesses going around and they are very informative. My son is in little Todd’s now he started off in the babies room and his transition into the new room went smoothly. When dropping him off they always ask how he’s been always asking if there’s anything they should know. Also when we pick him up they always let me know how long he’s napped, what he’s eaten, how many nappy changes and they really pay attention to not just my son but all the other children too, as they notice when he’s more emotional than normal, or when he doesn’t seem himself. This is an amazing nursery!

My son has settled in really well at Pixieland - Stoke, he had changed nurseries 6-months earlier, and I was worried about the transition for him, but the staff at Pixieland have been amazing not just with my son but have been supportive with me too listening and communicating well about my son as he
has a few extra needs and is a little behind the other children. He has made some good friends and has come on a lot since being at Pixieland. The meals are varied and balanced, and my son eats well and is very happy there. Can't praise Pixieland high enough for everything they have done and continue to do for me and my so

Our experience so far with Pixieland Day Nursery - Stoke has been brilliant. Our son started in babies and is now in little Tedds. His progression in the last six months has come on leaps and bounds with the help of the staff. Our son has formed good relationships not only with other children but with
the staff and we feel happy and confident that our son is enjoying himself and learning every day at Pixieland Day Nursery.

My son is the happiest child ever attending this amazing nursery. He started to speak and count till 20 at the age of 3 so good. All the teachers are true fairies supporting him in everything. They are using many modern methods of education and in general, they are always busy doing something interesting:
singing, dancing, crafts, yoga, playing in the garden, painting etc. Administrative support is good as well. Any questions- they will be sorted on time and everybody is informed about nursery plans or events. There is a good parking area and also a nice park near. We are absolutely sure that our child is in good hands as he stays full time and can see how happy he is when picking him up in the evening. Very proud about the staff and can't find enough words to say how thankful we are.

Our daughter has attended this nursery for just over a year now and has come on leaps and bounds in that time. The staff are truly amazing and our little girl loves going into them. Love the fact we get daily updates and pictures sent of their activities and milestones. Would highly recommend this nursery
to friends and family and have no concerns with our youngest going there when mum goes back to work after maternity leave.

I love this nursery. Both of my children go here, my daughter is in the pre-school room and my son is in the toddler room. They both look forward to going and have so much fun. The support from the staff is excellent. My daughter has neurological related special needs and staff have gone above and beyond
to source her extra help and to support her external therapists. My son has severe food allergies and they are extremely careful to ensure his safety and willing to help me in terms of providing food for him when needed.
In February, we suffered a sudden bereavement when my father died. The staff were amazing and so caring towards both me and the children. They helped them make a special card for grandad and were there to help me answer questions and support them.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone in the area.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.302)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.302) out of 10 for Pixieland Day Nursery - Stoke 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 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 4.889 for Pixieland Day Nursery - Stoke is calculated as follows: ( (32 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.889
  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 3.413 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Pixieland Day Nursery - Stoke 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 92 number of registered child places is 18.4. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.4 = 0.163
  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.
