My 2 year old has attended Sunnybank since March of this year. The staff are all angels, so accommodating and friendly, they are my little boys second family. He loves going to nursery and has come on leaps and bounds since starting.
When looking at nurseries, the outdoor space was important to us
When looking at nurseries, the outdoor space was important to us
and Sunnybank has such a lovely garden and the children are always outside when the weather allows.
I love seeing what my boy has been up to throughout the day via pictures uploaded onto the app, activities are well planned and a lot of effort goes in. We feel like we struck gold with this nursery and would recommend to anyone.

Extremely happy with the care provided for my little boy. The staff are friendly and attentive. They are always coming up with new and engaging activities which my son loves. The communication has always been great! We wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Lovely nurturing nursery. Both my little children go there and love it, the staff are warm and welcoming and it is like a home from home. They do different creative actives with them and always encourage outdoor play.

Started sending my daughter to Sunnybank Nursery from November, was worried about how she would be doing there but to a lot of surprise she suited well to the atmosphere of nursery. The staff are supportive and excellent. Could able to see quite a change in her hobbies also and engaging more in activities
like playing with other children. And most importantly we could really get all the activities updated also. Definitely going to recommend the nursery to my friends.

Sunnybank Nursery is absolutely fantastic! My daughter is only in Rabbits so she'll progress to Hare's when she's older but in Rabbit's we've had the best experience. I love seeing the activities she's been up to on the app! All the staff also update her care diary every day so I can see when she's
had a nappy change and what food she has eaten throughout the day. The staff in Rabbit's are all brilliant, but we absoutely love her key worker, my daughter has come on with her development so much since attending! She enjoys nursery so much it's her favourite place! I know my daughter can be difficult sometimes so I'm so grateful for the work all the staff do. Sunnybank also holds little events and parties for the children (e.g. Halloween party) which I think is really nice and a lot of effort is put into it. The manager Is lovely too and does a fantastic job at what she does. The whole team is a credit to the nursery. I'm so grateful we found Sunnybank. Would 100% recommend.

Myself and my child have had the best experience ever with this wonderful nursery. The staff are all wonderful, kind, caring and helpful. They've shown my child nothing but support and compassion during his settling in stage, they have helped me with areas of concern for my child and they go above and
beyong every single day for the children they care for. My child adores all the staff members and genuinely loves and enjoys going to each session. They provide my child with stimulating enjoyable activities in which he can learn and play and stay entertained all at the same time.

Sunnybank Nursery are wonderful with our son. All of the staff are friendly and very supportive. They have been very helpful in the process of getting referrals for our son due to his developmental delay and have made the process much easier, we are so grateful.

Sunnybank and its staff have been an absolute lifesaver for my son and our family. They are wonderful, and he loves going to nursery. I feel 100% comfortable and happy with sending my son there four days a week because I trust the staff completely, and they feel like family.

Sunnybank is an absolutely wonderful day nursery setting. The staff are incredible and go above and beyond to make sure that our child is happy and developing - they feel like a family who cares just as much about our children. They do different activities and especially do lots of outdoorsy things,
which our child loves.
Recently the staff have been doing activities and intervention strategies specifically for our child to help their development in a few key areas, and this has helped so much! Our child gets really excited when they see the staff there and often doesn't want to come home.
I really can't say how brilliant Sunnybank is and how thankful we are as parents that our child attends the setting - where they are safe, happy, and developing.

A friendly and welcoming nursery. The staff are all lovely and really get to know the children. This is my first child, so it was daunting sending her to the nursery, but the nursery was so lovely to me and my daughter with her settling-in sessions and when she started, which was so lovely. They really
made the effort to get to know us as a family, and it made me feel a lot better, and knowing how happy my daughter is at nursery is everything. She is always happy when she is there.
The nursery has also been very supportive of my daughter's dietary requirements and ensures she is never left out.
I could not wish for a better nursery.

My daughter started Sunnybank Nursery in September 2022. Since she started, I can honestly say she has come on in leaps and bounds; she has learnt so much and has really benefited from being with different children and the lovely staff! During December, especially, they invited her to take part in a
number of activities even on the days she wasn't there, which I thought was really nice that they wanted to include her. The staff are fantastic and welcome her each and every morning with the biggest smile. She is a sensitive child, and slowly but surely, she's really coming out of her shell! Im pleased that we chose this nursery for her, and we can't wait to see what this next year brings!
Thank you, Sunnybank!
Thank you, Sunnybank!

We absolutely love sending our little girl to Sunnybank. The care she receives there is second to none, and we have total faith that she is in very safe and capable hands. She has come on so much since starting and can sign, sing and socialise beautifully!

Sunnybank is an excellent nursery. My eldest left to start school in September 22, but she loves to go back and talk to the staff, who are always engaging and happy to see her. My youngest is currently at the nursery, and her confidence has grown. All staff have been flexible when I needed it, and
I really appreciate that. Both my girls loved/loves the food at nursery and tried all sorts (unlike at home!).

Amazing home-from-home nursery. Really good outdoor space for children, real mud and grass! Fabulous staff, caring and genuine. Extremely accommodating and flexible. We couldn't wish for a better nursery to care for our children.

When I was looking for a nursery for my daughter, I was really anxious due to having her in lockdown and her never being away from me, but as soon as I visited Sunnybank Nursery, I knew it was the nursery for us. All the staff were so warm and welcoming. I love the homely, safe feeling you feel as soon
as the door opens. I can't thank Sunnybank Nursery for all their support and kindness towards my daughter. I know when I leave my daughter at nursery for the day, she will be safe and well looked after and have an amazing day learning lots of new stuff and making new friends.

Current
Review Score: 10.0 (9.967)
Overview of Review Score
The Review Score of 10 (9.967) out of 10 for Sunnybank Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
- The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
- The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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:
- 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.967 for Sunnybank Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (326 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.967
-
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 Sunnybank Nursery is based on 28 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
- 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
- 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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2, which has been reached with 28 Positive reviews. Points = 1
- When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
- If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
