We have total confidence in Children 1st and feel comforted knowing that our son is in safe hands and his development is top priority for the staff. The regular updates we get is proof our little boy loves being at his nursery.

Our little boy joined in February this year and we are so happy we chose this nursery for him to go to. All the staff we have met are so friendly and we can really tell that he is loved by them all. He has come on in leaps and bounds since starting and this is all down to how wonderful and hard-working
the staff are. We can't thank you all enough, we feel so comfortable leaving him in your care and know that he is really being cared for in your nursery. The nursery also keep us updated as much as they can with what he has been up to during the day and we really love receiving photos of him playing at nursery!

A wonderful nursery. The staff are welcoming, professional and are brilliant with the kids. The space is bright and spacious, and I like that its all one level. The garden is great too and very child friendly. My daughter absolutely loves it here and smiles and waves at all the staff. I would highly
recommend it.

Lovely nursery. It took my boys a few weeks to settle in but the staff were great. So welcoming and patient with them and knowledgeable on all the children’s activities etc throughout the day. I can’t fault them at all.

Excellent nursery, Daughter is very happy there, staff very friendly and have built a great relationship with her. Always come back to emails/queries quickly and kept parents well informed throughout the pandemic. Also love the parents' app which I receive updates on weekly with regards to my daughter's
development (including pictures). Highly recommend this nursery.

Both my two children attend Children 1st and they both love going. The staff are all fantastic. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them.
They have gone above and beyond with my youngest who needs a little extra help and without them, I don't think he would have received it. I wouldn't want my children
to go anywhere else now.
100% would recommend this nursery to anyone.

My daughter has recently started Children's 1st @ Mian Street, she absolutely loves it. She's happy going in after a few wobbly starts, the staff are lovely and so welcoming to children and parents too. She loves every day she spends at nursery and is always smiles. She has come on a lot as she is quite
shy and has learnt a lot more words and how to do things in the little time she has been there.

My little girl has recently joined the baby unit at 5 months. The staff have put my mind at ease for returning back to work and I know my little girl is happy and safe at nursery. All parents want their children to be happy and settled and that definitely applies for this nursery. My daughter smiles
at the ladies as soon as we arrive and she’s still very happy at collection!

My little one loves going to nursery. She was two in March, my eldest who is now 13 went to Children 1st @ Main Street and I'm glad I decided to choose them again. The staff are lovely. What I like is their always happy and smiling, they always tell me how my child has been and they are approachable.
That is key when sending your child to nursery for the first time.

Our daughter absolutely loves coming to this nursery and is always so happy, and exhausted at the end of the day. They clearly foster their individual personalities and encourage them in doing what they enjoy. We really enjoy the updates via the app and would have more if we could. It's also useful
to have their developmental stages portrayed through there. We have no issues or complaints.

My daughter has attended the nursery for the last two years and she has loved it. It has had a very positive effect on her, through play and support from the staff, she has made lots of friends and has enjoyed learning. I have been very happy and confident leaving my daughter in the safe and capable
hands of the staff. Communication is great with parents and my daughter has positive relationships with all the staff. My daughter will always have fond memories of her time at Main Street.

My son started here in January and I can already see his development!
The staff go above and beyond to make sure that my son is happy and nothing is ever too much trouble. The staff are always so friendly and approachable and helped settle my son in quickly. Management are so flexible in our needs
and the quality of care we receive is excellent. Would not take him anywhere else.

We have always rated Children 1st @ Main Street highly. From our first viewing, we knew straight away that our children would be safe, comfortable and allowed to thrive. Now that our youngest is there it has been so lovely to see all the familiar faces from when our eldest attended. We actively promote
this nursery to people with young children in our local area and can not praise it highly enough.

This nursery is of the highest standard. My 3-year-old granddaughter attends the nursery and is always happy smiling and forever telling stories of her activities when she comes home. I have found it to be welcoming and of a friendly atmosphere, with happy helpful and efficient staff. Always a great
atmosphere and when you visit the food is of a high standard and it always smells delicious on entering the nursery.

My son has been at their nursery from 8 months old. Staff have a really good bond, as one particular staff member has gone from trainee to qualified manager. Cannot do enough to help with whatever is asked. Very clean and well-managed nursery. Staff are an absolute credit.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.853)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.853) out of 10 for Children 1st Main Street Nursery School 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 4.881 for Children 1st Main Street Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (149 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.881
  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 4.972 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Children 1st Main Street Nursery School 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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.972
  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.
