My daughter absolutely loved it, she was always so happy to be dropped off for the day. The staff are always friendly and communicate so well. The manager is extremely approachable. Felt like a lovely home environment for the children.

My 2 yr old daughter loves Gamston Paper Moon and classes her two care workers as her 'best friends'! During lockdown when the nursery was closed my daughter asked to go past nursery on her scooter each day as she missed it so much. She always looks forward to going and we are always so impressed with
what she learns there and the messy play activities.

What a fab nursery! Both of my children go there and my oldest has been going since she was 9 months and is now about to leave for ‘big’ school. They absolutely love going in each week and the staff are wonderful with them both. They have both come on leaps and bounds since attending and I honestly
can’t recommend them enough!

Both my daughters have attended here with my youngest due to leave soon and she will be very sad to go. Going to nursery has been such an enjoyable experience for my girls due to the kind and caring ladies that look after them there. They are always on hand for cuddles, fixing boo boos, hairstyling
and much more. Couldn't recommend a better nursery!

The staff at Paper Moon are friendly, committed and helpful. They consider the needs of my child, ensuring he is happy and is reaching his full potential. They communicate well throughout the week with videos and pictures via the app and a quick chat at the end of each day to let me know what my child
has been doing that day. I feel confident that he is safe and happy in their care and couldn’t ask for any more.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely wonderful nursery! Both my daughters attended from 10-months to 2.5years. Straight away, from the first visit, I got a really good vibe. All the staff were so warm and friendly. Both girls loved going to this nursery, they settled in immediately and soon it felt like I was dropping them off
with family.
Returning to work after having a baby is daunting, and you need reassurance that your children are not only safe and cared for but having fun, this amazing team were there, both times, to do just that.
I will be forever grateful to them all for their professionalism, care, love, compassion, humour and friendship.

Both my children attended this nursery from 9 months to school. They loved their time here and even ask to go on a Sunday. I couldn’t recommend Paper Moon enough. The staff are great and very welcoming.

Our daughter was at Paper Moon from one until starting school this September and our son is currently attending the nursery. We have been over the moon with the care and learning opportunities Paper Moon have given both our children. The staff are extremely helpful and go out of their way to ensure
the children are given the opportunity to thrive in many different aspects of nursery activities. The food has always been a very varied menu and both our children enjoy the food. I would have no hesitation in recommending Paper Moon to anyone.

Both of my children have attended Paper Moon for at least three years and they have loved every minute of it. The ladies are just amazing and I can’t thank them enough for the love they have given both of my girls. I would highly recommend this nursery. The manager should be very proud of how she runs
the nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attended Paper Moon at Gamston. During his time at Paper Moon, the staff supported my son immensely, always going above and beyond. They accepted my son for who he is and were not daunted by my son's additional needs like other nurseries were.
I am really pleased with the progress he has made.
They also made me feel at ease, I knew when I left my son in the morning, he would be safe and would enjoy his time there. I highly recommend Paper Moon at Gamston, they are amazing!

I could not be any more impressed with this nursery than I already am. The staff are 100% on point and are so warm, friendly and knowledgeable and I fully trust them and their experience. All the staff are more deserving of anything than I can put into words.
They have gone above and beyond for me
and my family more than I ever expected and we are so grateful for them and how caring they have been to not just to our child on a daily basis but to us as parents by extension.
They keep parents very well informed of everything involving your child and you never feel that you are bothering them with questions if you are a nervous or anxious parent like I am.
We all want the best for our children and I feel that my child's best interests are very well looked after under their care.

My son absolutely loves nursery. He has complex medical and physical needs and the staff could not be more accommodating. They clearly care a great deal about my son and his happiness is their top priority. They go above and beyond to support him and us as a family.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved to this nursery in 2017 and could not have been happier with the team the manager had looking after our daughter. The manager was fantastic and helped us in the transition from a poorly run previous nursery and eased our fears quickly. Our daughter has moved into a school this year as a well
adjusted 4 year old with good manners, habits and happy to go to school. They always kept us informed through the app on how she was doing and it was great to be collecting things from her tray almost every single day. We have a scrapbook almost a mile thick already just from a year at Papermoon. Thanks to the team, you're a real credit to the profession.

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.
