Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent nursery and supremely happy with how our son is being cared for. The extra support for his development has been outstanding and the staff truly go above and beyond for the care of the children. There has never been any issues, but I know if there were issues they will be dealt with professionally
and efficiently!
Fantastic all round :)

Review from Hannah N (Mother of Child) published on 27 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Little Sunflowers is an amazing Nursery. I can't sing their praises highly enough! My son has suspected autism, is non verbal & has special educational needs. The level of care & attention that has been given to him is faultless. The staff are so attentive, kind & genuinely care & my son is so happy
there. Little Sunflowers do so many different activities with the children through out the day, provide excellent food, & the staff are always happy, bubbly & give excellent communication on how my son has been during the day. My son has thrived since being at Little Sunflowers & I'm honestly dreading the day when he has to leave. I know 100% that he's happy, safe & well cared for.
We're currently preparing to apply for an EHCP for my son & as parents, the support we've been given by Little Sunflowers is amazing. The staff are so approachable with any questions we may have & so giving of their time, we couldn't proceed without their help! As a family, we love Little Sunflowers Nursery!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have used Sunflowers Nursery for 3 years and we are extremely happy with the care, support and quality of the service. Our son loves going to the nursery and we have seen him flourish over the years. He is a SEN child and the nursery went above and beyond to support him. This was not only noticed
by us but also health professionals involved in our case. This nursery sees each child as in individual and really cares about the journey for the child and the family as a whole.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.928)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.928) out of 10 for Little Sunflowers Nursery 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.928 for Little Sunflowers Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (256 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 276 Ratings = 4.928
  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 Sunflowers Nursery is based on 23 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 105 number of registered child places is 21, which has been reached with 23 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.
