Excellent nursery and cannot praise enough. I feel totally secure and at ease that my 2 children receive the best care and attention on the day they attend. All the staff are friendly, approachable and professional, and the nursery appears to be managed extremely well with good communication. My children
love going to nursery too and have built up good relationships with the staff.

My daughter only joined in January and she has loved every bit of it. She gets a little upset when we leave her but the staff make her feel welcome. It's helped me a lot with interacting with other children and it's helped her speech more.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started in January 2017 and since the day that he started you can see so many changes in him. He has learnt so many nursery songs and lots more words. He has also learnt to share and play with many children. He loves playing outside and they also have a variety of activities to do every day he
goes. I also know that he has had a really good day of playing because he is always tired when he leaves the nursery. He really enjoys eating breakfast and lunch with his friends and has been learning independence as they teach him to serve his own breakfast himself which he loves and has started at home also. Whenever I arrive at nursery it is always very secure to get in and out and the rooms are always clean and sometimes tidy depending on what the children are playing with at the time. All of the staff are very friendly and polite and my son loves all of them and every day when he wakes up he wants to go to nursery so that must mean something.

Great nursery who have very friendly and caring staff. They do lots of activities with the children and always ensure there are plenty of dates in the diary for forthcoming events and try to involve parents where they can. Good communication with parents with happy children.

I find the staff to be friendly and the nursery sufficient for my daughters needs until she starts school in September. The nursery is in a great location and the rooms are a good size considering the space they have. There's lots of activities and learning for the children to do as well as a spacious
garden to play in.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Paper Moon Day Nursery is a very friendly, safe and welcoming environment. Staff recognise that the children have different needs and learning styles and encourage personal expression in a safe learning environment. Staff continuously ensuring that children reach learning and development targets and
adapt their approach as required in recognition of children's different needs. The staff are an asset to the nursery.
The nursery has 3 separate rooms tailored to the needs of each age group. The nursery also has a great outdoor space to allow for the different learning settings. The outdoor space encourages learning with purposefully designed spaces.
Learning opportunities extend beyond the nursery walls. The children are often taken on walks to learn about nature, amongst other things all encouraging personal development.
Food is prepared daily on site using fresh products. The variety of food offered on a weekly basis is excellent.
I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery.

I am really pleased that I picked Paper Moon Nursery for my son, he really enjoys it there and there are always a lot of different activities for him to do. The teachers are always so friendly and helpful and they have also taught my son a lot of new things (putting on his own coat, hat on etc).


I

would highly recommend Paper Moon Day Nursery. My son is also now eating a wide range of food he would never eat at home due to the good variety of food.

All the ladies are amazing. Both my sons have settled well. My eldest has been in since he was seven months old and has thrived and developed beyond his years in speech and physical ability. My youngest has just started full time and settled well and enjoys all the activities. As a full time working
parents, this gives us great comfort to know that while we are away from our children they are being cared for, educated and nurtured.

My daughter thoroughly enjoys nursery. She enjoys all the sensory activities they do and playing with the other children.
I love coming home and reading her book to see what she has been up to during the day.

The staff at Paper Moon are excellent. I know my child is going to be well looked after and the environment is very enriching to his development and education.
I am always informed about what he has been up to and I even got a Valentine's letter in the post from him which the nursery made.
The amount
of effort that goes into everything, is first class.

All the staff here make my little boy feel welcome and they all do a great job in looking after the children. I love sending my son to Paper Moon and I think he enjoys going too. I love the fact that he comes home with a diary so that I can see how he's progressing and everything that he's done in the
day, it's a great idea.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
What better review is there than my 2-year-old saying "yes" and reeling off the names of his favourite staff when I ask him every morning if he wants to go to nursery. Upon arrival, he runs to the door and heads straight to the breakfast table, excited for the day ahead. When I collect him at the end
of the day, he wants to stay and help with the cleaning so I am in no doubt that he's happy, stimulated, well fed and well looked after at Paper Moon.

Absolutely love all the staff at the preschool. My son is so happy here, always coming home showing us things he's made or things he's learned. New songs, the colour of mars, even his left and right! That's only a few of the amazing things he's learned here. Staff encourage my child to be imaginative
with his stories and dressing up. The connection he has with the staff is incredible. Dropping my son off is so easy to do because I know he's safe and very loved there.

My daughter has settled into this nursery very well with the help of the fantastic staff and management, she has very strong bonds with staff and the cleaner. Attending full-time, she is always doing stimulating and exciting activities and comes home very tired at the end of the day. The food she eats
at nursery is very well nutritionally balanced and she eats lots! The range of activities she does is excellent, as a parent, I look forward to the stay and play sessions as they get very messy! My daughter can do 'please' and 'thank you' in sign language which she has learnt to do here. It's great!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.957)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.957) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Doddington Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.957 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Doddington Park is calculated as follows: ( (403 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 420 Ratings = 4.957
  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 Paper Moon Day Nursery - Doddington Park is based on 35 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 35 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.
