I've been extremely pleased with all aspects of care which my son has received since starting at Paper Moon 5 months ago. I find all the staff friendly and professional and my son has settled in really well. I would have no hesitation in recommending Paper Moon nursery to other parents/carers.

I have had 2 children at this nursery between 2012 to the present and I can not recommend the nursery enough. I trust the staff and always feel comfortable with my children in their care. Both of my boys have enjoyed their time at this nursery and it has stood them in good stead for starting school.

Very nice clean nursery with friendly helpful staff. My children love to go and have so much fun. The diet is very mixed and has a lot of variation. My only criticism is that they are too quick to report an illness sometimes which later turns out not to be.

The Ofsted report “outstanding” speaks for itself. I’m really comfortable with my daughter being here after moving her from another nursery, staff are amazing, so reassuring and experienced. Nothing is too much trouble, staff make us feel so welcome! My daughter's speech is absolutely amazing and her
social skills are developing nicely. I’m really grateful to the staff who look after my daughter.

Review from Becca G (Mother of Child) published on 22 March 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Brilliant place. My son is autistic and really struggled around other children and was unable to vocally communicate. The staff worked so well with him and helped him settle around the other children and his speech is coming on amazingly. He has also always been a fussy eater, but eats or at least tries
absolutely everything on their humungous menu. He is so happy to be there and is clearly very well looked after.


In terms of contact, no query is too daft. I often email with questions, and I struggle with communication also due to autism and the replies are always friendly and helpful as much as can be.


Absolutely 100% would recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is an absolutely OUSTANDING nursery, as quite rightly rated recently by OFSTED! The staff are always very friendly, helpful and show a great interest in my son and facilitating his continual development. They have great nursery-parent communications and even a regularly updated app to track my
son's activities and development day to day.
The setting is brilliant, being purpose built with fantastic outside play spaces as well as excellent indoor play and learning facilities. I have been using the nursery now for nine years for all of my four children and it just keeps getting better. I cannot recommend it highly enough, I would not send my little ones anywhere else.

I am very pleased with every aspect of Paper Moon, I was very apprehensive about putting my daughter into daycare. I can easily say it was the best decision. The staff are amazing and my daughter loves her time here. I will never use a different nursery and will always recommend Paper Moon to anyone
wanting to put their child into daycare. Thanks.

I would absolutely 1000% recommend this nursery, my son has made fantastic relationships with all staff and children, he jumps for joy in the mornings when I tell him it’s a nursery day. The menus reflect a good, healthy, balanced diet and I am kept up to date with my son's progress by his key person,
who shares regular reviews about my child’s next learning steps.
I leave my son knowing that he is safe and very well cared for by the amazing team at
Paper Moon Day Nursery.

It is with a saddened heart that my daughter leaves Paper Moon after two years of being with all the staff and her friends there.
I personally cannot fault one bit of their care and personally thank everyone, for their personal support to me.

My son has loved attending Paper Moon Nursery and I feel that his needs have always been met. The staff have been very helpful and have followed through with any requests that I’ve had, also he had extra support with his toilet training - which again all staff were very happy to help with. Although
still shy sometimes I also believe nursery has helped him come out of his shell and his confidence has increased which is fantastic to see. He has also loved doing the extra activities like the mini kicks which I think is great that they have outside groups that come in and do extra with the children. Great nursery overall with a nice environment, he’s my second child to attend this nursery and I’m also using them for my third child.

Very impressed with the continued care my child receives. Staff are very approachable and caring. My daughter is always happy when she is there. I am fully updated by staff every day and feel the activities offered are very varied. I particularly enjoy the photos of my daughter that are uploaded onto
'tapestry' - so nice to see what she is up to and how happy she is. I would definitely recommend this 'outstanding' nursery to family and friends.

My son has now been at Papermoon for a year, and we love it! He has settled well and is always happy to go to see his friends and carers. I have been impressed with the care and attention from all staff, and appreciate the warm, family atmosphere in the nursery. The facilities are excellent and always
clean too! Congratulations on your Outstanding OFSTED Report - I totally agree!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff at this nursery have continued to provide outstanding care for my son and I couldn’t recommend them enough. They regularly monitor his behaviour and development to which resulted in him moving up into the toddler room which has since provided appropriate stimulation. The staff are always smiling,
friendly and attentive - answering any questions that I have. When dropped off in the morning, the staff are great at reassuring my son if he is feeling a little anxious and leave us as his parents at ease knowing he is in capable hands. The facilities and meals provided are fantastic and I intend to keep my son at this nursery up until he is ready for school.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since walking into the nursery on the very first visit it felt like home. All the staff are so friendly and everyone knows my child's name even the lady who cooks the dinners which I think is so lovely it makes you feel valued and you know your child is in safe hands.
I found the nursery accommodating
when my son has a dairy allergy and supported us through the reintroduction stage. They provided all relevant dairy-free food which I've heard in other nurseries parents have had to supply.
I feel I am kept up to date of my son's progress and love the fact they take the time each day to discuss what he has done rather than just hand me his book.
My son loves attending nursery and I love that he is happy there. So thank you Papermoon you are all stars.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.958)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.958) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Sutton-in-Ashfield 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.958 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Sutton-in-Ashfield is calculated as follows: ( (366 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 381 Ratings = 4.958
  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 - Sutton-in-Ashfield is based on 32 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 134 number of registered child places is 26.8, which has been reached with 32 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.
