My children love Bishops Hull Spring! The staff are incredibly caring and take the time to get to know each child. Both my kids settled in so quickly. They always give photo updates and pick up handovers. The team are so lovely and supportive and I couldn't recommend them enough! Kelly and her team
go above and beyond.

My daughter has been in the Bishops Hull setting since 1 year. After a big move, the staff were very good in supporting her through this transition. She has felt very much at home and comfortable here. Staff are kind yet firm, which is great at this age. My daughter is always busy there despite attending
afternoon sessions. Lots of outdoor time too, which she loves. A good variety is offered for tea which has helped my daughter be exposed to a lot a different textures and types of meals. Overall, she is very happy there and that's given us a lot of peace of mind.

My child (under 2) has been at Spring Nursery for 6 months now and I couldn't have asked for a better nursery. All the staff are friendly and know me by name. They all quickly got to know my child's needs, likes, dislikes and I know that he is in 'safe hands' when he attends.

I would like to start the review by wow! My daughter was 6 months when she started and myself and my wife, were very nervous and anxious, but the staff at the nursery were and still are fantastic. They listened so carefully to our daughter’s routine and followed it to the dot. We had regular updates
via the app with pictures and messages, we could also message anytime we wanted. Our daughter loves it there and has blossomed so much since being there. Lovely nursery.

The nursery has been a wonderful and welcoming homely atmosphere. Which has helped my little girl grow in confidence, and encourages her to partake in her own time. We would highly recommend this nursery.

Absolutely love this nursery and all the staff.
They are so warm and welcoming, my son loves it here!
They do so much with him, his development has come on leaps and bounds!
So grateful for all the staff and what they do.
I know my son is in safe hands with them.
They’ve re-tarmacked the outside
so it’s safer for the little ones to run and play, they’ve put a new safe video entry on the gate. My son and I both love it!

Another year and we are still very happy with our nursery choice. As our child is getting ready for school this year, his nursery leaders are working on preparing him. I feel he will have a good start to school because of this, although we are going to be very sad to leave.

Fantastic staff, both my daughters have been to the same nursery. My youngest loves going. If she is ever upset, they are brilliant with her. The development reviews and photos they give us are amazing. I'm happy cause my daughter is happy and settled in nursery.

Just brilliant. Staff are friendly and more than approachable. Supportive and reassuring to the child and parent in extending days. Management goes above and beyond to help with any queries, and most importantly, in every single collection, my daughter is happy, full tummy with lots to tell me about
her day.

The nursery has provided excellent care, being mindful of the fact that my 18 month old son has never been away from us. They provided adequate settling in sessions and are patiently taking care of his needs, while gradually easing him into the nursery environment. Excellent staff. Great care. Thank
you.

Absolutely a brilliant nursery. From the moment I walked in I knew my son would be cared for and well looked after in his sessions. He absolutely loves going to nursery, especially to see his key worker, who he has a really great connection with. Also his friends that will also continue his journey
in school. The staff currently there are all lovely, friendly, super helpful and they are amazing with my son, They provide brilliant feedback and take on board all comments and requests. We receive regular updates on the app with lovely pictures, giving a great insight into the activities they do and places they go.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
No hesitation in giving a five star review.
The team have been incredibly helpful with the process of our daughter's enrollment into the day nursery.
Shy and unconfident at first, our daughter has made a complete u-turn and clearly loves the environment she gets to be a part of. Without the guidance
and support of all at Spring Nursery Bishops Hull.
100% would recommend any parents to consider this nursery as a viable option for their child’s early learning development.

We recently enrolled our daughter after being very impressed with the team and the facilities. They genuinely care about the children which sounds obvious but is sometimes found lacking. Needless to say, our daughter has thrived and loved every minute of being there so far.
I can't recommend this
place enough.

I was so anxious sending my toddler to nursery for the first time, however, the team at Spring Bishops Hull have made it so much easier and more enjoyable than I could have imagined! My 19-month-old daughter has settled so well at Spring and I am forever grateful for how kind, welcoming, accommodating
and compassionate all the staff are, even the ones who aren’t in my daughter's room.
They regularly update the app so you can see meal times and how much they’ve eaten, nap times and how long they’ve slept, as well as photos and their progress. I enquired at several nurseries around Taunton but I am so pleased we chose Spring! Thank you all!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.911)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.911) out of 10 for Spring Nursery Bishops Hull 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.911 for Spring Nursery Bishops Hull is calculated as follows: ( (156 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.911
  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 Spring Nursery Bishops Hull is based on 14 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 32 number of registered child places is 6.4, which has been reached with 14 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.
