I could go on forever from the support involvement from multiple agencies NHS Early years and updated staff training and meetings to help the children meet there needs for most it would just be a job but not to these girl go above and beyond and it doesn't stop there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I couldn't complement the staff enough, they are amazing with all the children, my daughter started nursery at 5 months old which can be daunting for a mother to leave their child at such a young age, but the staff in the baby room and management made the settling in for my daughter and myself a smooth
transition. They upload pictures on the parents only site which really helped with my transition of separation from baby. She is now 13 months old and absolutely loves going to nursery in the morning, seeing her excited when she recognises the nursery I know I made the best decision in choosing ABC and there amazing caring team.
The resources and activities are well planned and help massively with the development of the children. I love to hear them all having fun in the garden when I come to collect my daughter.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
ABC castle is an amazing nursery the staff are fabulous too. My child has been going since she was 8 months old, I have never had no issues and have a good relationship with the staff. Recently we found out Isla had a milk allergy. With my child going to nursery 3 days a week I was a little worried
what food she would eat ect. The staff where so helpful giving me advice on what my child can eat ect and give her a milk free diet at nursery. Anything I need to ask they are always there to help. 5 star if I could give more I would. Thanks for all your help ABC castle x

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent facility and set-up for children. The staff are incredibly amazing and care for our daughter just the way family should. Faith values and morals are given consideration. Our child is always happy and has learnt so much through ABC Castle. Would highly recommend this nursery to parents especially
as they are so accomodating for parents and children. Child development is treated as a priority.

Absolutely fantastic nursery. My little girl was born just before lockdown so had never left my side in 16months. ABC Castle made going back to work so much easier as my daughter Absolutely loves it here. She has settled in so quickly and is so happy when she goes in.
They always write down in her
diary everything that she has eaten, every nappy change, naps, and what she has done during the day. I would definitely recommend them as an excellent nursery.

Friendly and professional staff. Excellent facilities. Great safety protocols. I always feel like my child will be happy and safe as soon as I hand her over to their staff. She is well-fed and clean when I pick her up and I am given a full rundown of her day, both written and verbal.

This is a fantastic nursery, with a superb atmosphere, my son has been attending here since he was a couple of months old, and in all honesty, it was the best decision choosing this nursery as it is so well managed, all the staff are very welcoming and experienced. I would give it a million stars if
I could because it such an incredible nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My experience from day one with this nursery has been amazing! My son is very, very well looked after and the staff are amazing. He has attended full time from 4 months old and is now 26 months old and he will stay within this nursery until it’s time for him to go to school as I couldn’t imagine him
anywhere else.
The staff, the owner and the manager are all hands-on and very easy to talk to and get along with. It’s a beautifully run business in which you can see everyone is treated as an equal and the staff aren’t drained. They are always very happy and bubbly. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone with children.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.429)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.429) out of 10 for ABC Castle Nursery 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 7 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 5.000 for ABC Castle Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (82 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 82 Ratings = 5
  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 4.429 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for ABC Castle Nursery is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 0.729
  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.
