We have had an excellent experience with Paper Moon Nursery since our daughter started there a couple years ago. She absolutely loves the staff, the activities and has made lots of great friends. The staff are very supportive and management is always on hand to answer any questions we have (often out
of hours too).

My daughter started attending the nursery in May and the transition has been very smooth. She really enjoys spending time in nursery. Like many families, we had some concerns about how she would settle in, but so far everything has gone wonderfully. The experience has been positive, and it's clear that
she is happy and well cared for.

All the employees at Papermoon Nursery are lovely individuals; they're extremely friendly, caring, and clearly passionate about their work with children. They provide a variety of fun actives thoughout the day - which my son definitely seems to love! They provide updates to parents throughout the day,
including picture updates. I feel total reassurance in the fact that my child is very well cared for, and that he has all of his needs met while at Nursery.


My child really enjoys the time he spends at paeprmoon and this is evident by the smiles and affection shown when we greet the staff in the morning, and the yawns and cuddles, still content when I collect him. I really couldn't fault this nursery one bit, the staff here do there jobs amazingly! Thankyou all so much

Papermoon has been a brilliant nursery for my daughter who started from 12 months old. She comes home saying new words and singing songs I didn't teach her! The staff are always so enthusiastic and I love that I can see updates about her day so easily. Would definitely recommend.

All the staff has been really amazing and supportive
My child had a bit of a cranky phase but the manager has been amazing throughout.
I requested to particularly focus on his colours and animals recognition and she did really well with it , I can see significant improvement.
They always pay attention
towards his food choices etc.
Quite pleased with everyone !!
Thanks

My daughter started in the baby room in May and has loved every minute at this nursery! The staff are caring and passionate about their work and I have complete confidence in them looking after my little girl. Like all parents I wanted my daughter to have the best care and Papermoon go above and beyond
to accommodate my daughter's needs and interests. The baby room is so inviting and I know my daughter always has an amazing day full of exciting activities led by experienced staff. I couldn't ask for a better team and nursery!

Everyone looking after our daughter has been nothing but caring and sweet, she loves it!
There are always new activities for her to do, we get updates and more importantly, we know she is safe, she is fed, changed, and looked after.
We have received a massive help with regards to paperwork and how
to do things, out of roughly 6 nurseries in the Gamston/WB area this is the cleanest, most flexible, and most helpful we have seen.
Thank you!

My son has been at Paper Moon Nursery for almost a year. He has settled in so well all thanks to the fabulous staff. All of the staff have made a connection with him due to their child-centred focus and genuine love for their work which is clear to see. They do learning and fun activities daily and
regularly share updates which brightens my day! I am so grateful to all of the staff and the manager for always working with us to make sure my son is happy and settled! Thank you!

Paper Moon Nursery is highly recommended by me and My Husband all three of our children have and have attended here. The staff are totally amazing And very attentive to our children. At the outset, we were looking for a Nursery We had boxes we wanted to tick and Paper Moon ticked them and more. They
have been exceptionally great over the last four years and continued to improve
If you're looking to place your child in a nursery, this would come at the top of our list. Highly recommended.

Paper Moon Nursery has been a fantastic experience for my littlest boy who is 1 and 3/4. The staff there are really good and make it a fun experience for the little ones. There is excellent communication through the app and I receive regular photos and videos of the day! This is the second time we have
used Paper Moon as my eldest who is now nine also went to Paper Moon and the staff were very good with him as well. Would recommend!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.940)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.940) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.940 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston is calculated as follows: ( (314 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 333 Ratings = 4.94

  • b) 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 - Gamston 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:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, 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.
