Paper Moon Gamston has been a consistently great nursery for my both children. My youngest has settled very quickly. The staff are nurturing and my daughter is always happy to go there. The nursery underwent some much-needed refurbishing recently.

A lovely nursery that has been an extension of home for our two daughters. The management and staff are always approachable, helpful and adaptable. We are impressed by the daily activities which are great for children's social and neurodevelopment. I would recommend the Paper Moon Nursery to any parent
without reservation.

Staff are all lovely and really care about the children. My daughter loves her days there, regularly enjoys arts and crafts, time outdoors, messy play, and also gets to eat a wide variety of meals prepared each day for her. Honestly can't fault them and would highly recommend!

From our first visit I knew this would be the best nursery for our little boy. I never, ever feel like I have to worry whilst he's there. He has such a lovely time and does so many different, enjoyable things whilst he's there. He's always so well looked after. The staff are all so reassuring and informative
about his day. I was so nervous about him starting nursery and returning back to work but we are 6 months in now and I have 0 regrets because of this nursery.

We couldn't be happier! As a first-time mom I didn't know what to expect and I was very worried when I sent my daughter with strangers for the first time. But at Paper Moon it immediately felt like a second family, my daughter is looked after in the best way possible and I couldn't ask for more! Very
much recommended.

Absolutely Brilliant. My daughter loves going to nursery from day 1. They are so welcoming and great with the kids and the parents. My daughter has come on so much since starting at the nursery. Her speech was delayed but they have worked with her and now she's a right little chatterbox. I would strongly
recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter previously attended a different nursery, a brand new nursery less than a mile away from Gamston Papermoon. I was deeply disappointed with the previous nursery and their behaviours, and lack of working with me to guide my daughter. So, as you can imagine I was very thorough when looking for
a new nursery for my daughter to attend. I actually visited seven nurseries and Papermoon Gamston was on my shortlist. I immediately gelled with the manager and she understood my daughter’s daily pattern and assured me we would work together. On meeting the other members of staff, I could not be more thrilled with their passion and enthusiasm and their genuine care for all the little people they look after. My daughter adores this nursery. I could not recommend this nursery enough. They have become mine and my daughter‘s second family. When I drop her off, I walk away, knowing she’s in the absolute best care with the most amazing people looking after her.

The staff at Paper Moon Gamston are all very friendly, caring and attentive. It is clear they care very much about the children who attend. They are always very positive and enthusiastic. They’ve made us feel at ease leaving our little one whom we’ve never left with anyone before. We couldn’t be happier
with the nursery.

Fantastic nursery with fantastic staff! It feels just like home, my little boy loves his day at nursery and has a brilliant bond with all the ladies, in particular his key worker. The management team will go above an beyond to meet any needs and requirements and you are always a priority to them! I
would recommend sending your child to this setting if you want peace of mind that your child will be in the best hands

My daughter absolutely loves coming nursery every morning. I'm actually dreading when she leaves to go to school. All the staff are friendly, caring and understanding. The laughter and joy I hear from the rooms when walking in puts a smile on my face every day.

My little boy attends this nursery and he couldn't be happier. We recently moved to the area and worried about how he would settle in his nursery, however, he sprints in so excited every single day and comes out with the biggest smile.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough! They go big and beyond
to ensure you and your child are happy!

My son has been attending this nursery since January 2022 and myself and my partner are both unbelievably happy with how well he has settled! He loves being at nursery and has formed lovely bonds with his key worker and baby room leader! We love seeing what he's been getting up to on the parents app'
and seeing all the lovely activities he's been taking part in. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming and have made us feel very comfortable with taking our child to the nursery! The manager has been super helpful and is always there to greet us with a bright, happy smile in the mornings, which sets our day off to a great start. If you are thinking of taking your child to this nursery, then do not hesitate. We absolutely love it here!

I could not ask for a better nursery for my son. He has come on leaps and bounds since starting in January 2022 and was eased into his new nursery beautifully. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone, nothing is too much trouble. All staff go above and beyond and I’m so grateful to have found
them.

I love this nursery, and so does my son. He was struggling with separation, and he was made to feel right at home, and it didn't take long for him to feel comfortable. Lovely outside area and friendly staff. The manager is really nice and is always present when I'm picking him up, which is nice to see.
Thank you.

My son has been attending almost a year and he absolutely loves going. Most mornings he’s too excited to get in that he forgets my goodbyes. Make me so comfortable knowing he’s happy and well cared for. His development is amazing learning new things every day that surprise us all. Very highly recommended.
Thank you Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston.

Our son has started nursery last April just before he turned 2 in June. He gets so excited every time ‘nursery day’ comes. He can’t wait to see his friends, the lovely staff and he just wants to play. He is happy when we pick him up which obviously makes us happy too. He sometimes pretends he is on
the phone to the manager at bedtime just to ask if the nursery is open yet. He has grown in confidence so much and his vocabulary is amazing. Happy child, happy parent! Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.939)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.939) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.939 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston is calculated as follows: ( (292 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 310 Ratings = 4.939
  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 - Gamston is based on 26 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 26 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.
