We love explorers 2. One little one has come leaps and bounds since starting. The staff are fabulous. I really appreciate how much time they spend outside, and the daily (which is wild, so thorough and thoughtful) updates are so fun to see.

We have been really happy with our experience of the nursery so far. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel that your little one is safe and cared for and loved and they are all wonderfully happy and friendly. They nursery seems to share our values of bringing up our little one prompting curiosity
and independence in a safe, fun and caring environment. My little one has settled in really well and the value she gets from socialising at nursery has really helped her development. Very very happy and would highly recommend Little Trees to anyone. Thank you x

Incredibly friendly staff who really care and make an effort to get to know you. My son always has a smile on his face when we arrive in the car park and is always greeted enthusiastically. The food is varied and changes to suit any occasion e.g lunar new year. The facilities are great and seem well
maintained. The garden is fantastic. Overall this is the best nursery for us with 10 out of 10 staff.

Little Tress has been wonderful for my son. They have helped him develop in so many ways emotionally and intellectually. He settled so well and grew amazing bonds with the staff. They do very well at keeping me in the loop and reassuring me on how he is doing.

I was so nervous leaving my child, as a first time mum, but I had nothing to worry about. From my child's 1st day all staff are inviting, smiley and informative. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough. My child absolutely loves it here and so do we.

Little Trees has been brilliant for our little girl! We moved from Birmingham and felt really apprehensive about moving but the entire staff were amazing at the transfer of nurseries and she has settled incredibly well. Her development has been amazing to watch and it is down to the attentive, caring
and experienced staff. Thank you so much!

I am really pleased with how my daughter has progressed since attending Little Trees Lansown. The staff are always welcoming when dropping off and really informative about how her day's been when I collect her. The environment appears clean at all times and is a great space for her to learn and develop.
I can't thank the staff enough for how happy my daughter is on a daily basis, and to me that is the most important thing.

I cannot thank this team enough for their ongoing support in the development of my two and a half year old toddler. From the moment my friends suggested Dean's Close and to me having an interview to make sure it was a great fit, I absolutely knew I made the best decision. My daughter has ultimately
gone on leaps and bounds and it really is down to the fantastic teachers and practitioners that have guided her.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.785)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.785) out of 10 for Little Trees Day Nursery Lansdown is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.785 for Little Trees Day Nursery Lansdown is calculated as follows: ( (306 Excellents x 5) + (54 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.785
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Trees Day Nursery Lansdown is based on 30 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 93 number of registered child places is 18.6, which has been reached with 30 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
