  • S4YC @ Ledsham Park Day Nursery, Ellesmere Port
Welcoming babies, toddlers, and preschoolers, S4YC Ledsham Park Nursery is a lively, nurturing place where children grow through hands-on play and meaningful learning experiences.

Following a full interior refurbishment in early 2025, the nursery now features bright, open-plan rooms thoughtfully redesigned to inspire curiosity and independence. New resources, inviting cosy corners, and well-organised baby, toddler, and preschool rooms support all aspects of the Early Years Foundation Stage while ensuring children enjoy a safe, stimulating space where they can happily develop at their own pace. Outside, an extensive back garden offers plenty of space for nature-based play, discovery, and adventure.

The nursery’s experienced team creates a warm, supportive atmosphere where every child is known, valued, and truly cared for. Daily activities are thoughtfully planned around children’s interests, helping them follow their own ideas, build new skills, and develop confidence. Staff also maintain close communication with families, ensuring strong relationships and a shared understanding of each child’s development.

Ledsham Park Nursery is proud to uphold the positive feedback highlighted in its latest Ofsted report, noting children’s happiness, enthusiasm for learning, and secure relationships with staff.

The team would be delighted to welcome families for a visit to experience the newly refurbished nursery and learn more about what makes Ledsham Park such a special place for little ones to begin their early-years journey.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter graduated from preschool in this setting earlier this month. She has blossomed into a confident, resilient, curious and skilled individual through her attendance at Ledsham. She is more than ready to start in her reception class in September and is equipped with a strong foundation in all
areas thanks to the hard work, professionalism and challenges given by the staff here. They have nurtured my daughter wonderfully and have been very supportive of me as a parent.

This place is an absolutely delightful place, the staff are amazing with the kids, there are rooms for each age set and facilities for each room too. All staff are dedicated to helping the children to build upon themselves, as well as learn new life skills each day. Warm meals each day allowing kids
to grow up liking different foods and trying new stuff all the time, while also catering for allergies and choices. Could not reccommend enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has loved her time at Ledsham, she's been from age 20 months to school age and has loved every room. The manager has made a lot of positive changes across the nursery since my little one started. She has had a great relationship with all of her key workers and all of the staff. The transition
for my child is often difficult and they've supported her through everything from starting nursery to moving room and gone at her pace. Key workers and management have worked with myself and my husband at every step to make sure that she is happy and she's thrived. The outside space is second to none and my daughter talks a lot about it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the manager and the team.

Review from Mark T (Father of Child) published on 18 December 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are very pleased with the excellent standard of care provided by Ledsham Park Day nursery. It is the nursery of our choice out of those in the local area. The induction process was excellent, especially for nervous parents such as ourselves. Management was reassuring and patient. All the staff are
extremely welcoming and friendly and always make time for us. We really appreciate the 'end of day report' when we pick up our daughter. According to them, she is always amazing. She is always happy and smiling at the end of the day and often creatively messy. We love all her arts and crafts that she has been making at the nursery and we have noticed progress in her development.
We are very impressed with the layout of the nursery and especially like the outside space. It is good that staff take the children out to play whenever possible. Indoor facilities are also very good. Our daughter enjoys the kitchen area.
We would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

I cannot fault Ledsham Park Day Nursery. Excellent communication between staff, children and parent. The app provides the updates on my child's progress (info provided by staff). He has developed immensely and is a very happy child there. Thank you!

Both of my children have been cared for by Ledsham Park Day Nursery. They were always excited to attend and were happy to be handed over to the staff. Value for money is amazing and especially the term time only option. All staff make you and your child feel safe and at ease, this was essential when
both my children started nursery. Both my children love their outside space and playing in the garden and both have made very good progress with their phonics and their love of learning in general. I would highly recommend this nursery.

We are extremely happy to have chosen this nursery for our little girl. The staff that look after her are so caring and have helped her to thrive. She is so happy at nursery and has grown in confidence and development. Communication with parents is excellent and resources for the children are great,
helping the children to develop a multitude of skills. We couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough and our daughter is so happy here, massively takes the stress out of going back to work.

My son attends Ledsham Nursery after my older son had many successful years with them looking after him. The staff are so friendly and caring and my son loves attending every week. I can't thank the staff enough. These girls are an absolute credit to the nursery. The amount of activities and various
learning methods carried out is fantastic. My son has come on so much since attending and I love how happy he always is when I pick him up. I would highly recommend this nursery to all family and friends.

Very friendly and caring environment for our little girl to learn and develop. The facilities at the nursery are brilliant, in particular the huge outdoor space for the kids to play and experience all weather conditions. The staff are superb, providing a range of activities each and everyday. They build
strong relationships with the children and that is clear to see by the way the children interact with them, that is a testiment to the work going on at the Nursery.

I would thoroughly recommend this nursery. My daughter has been there since 11 months old (she is three now) and has really settled well in every room. The staff have all been fantastic. It is not just a job to them, they genuinely care for the children. They do varied activities to keep the children
entertained- Didi Dance, Spanish lessons, Forest School etc. The garden is huge. There are lots for the children to do outside, my daughter loves being outside. She has really come on loads since being there and is really chatty and happy when I pick her up. The manager is fantastic too, nothing is too much trouble for her. She’s friendly and welcoming. Thoroughly recommend.

Our two daughters absolutely love coming to this nursery. Our eldest is now a preschooler and has been coming here since she was 11 months old. The activities are so varied and we love knowing exactly what they have both been doing each day.
The staff are so friendly and really care about what they
do, the nursery is clean and fun and such a lovely setting for our children’s early development years.

Both of my children have attended this lovely nursery.
My Daughter is currently in the toddler room and is thriving. The staff are caring and professional and I trust them with my most important person!
My Daughter does singing, dancing, crafts, free play, structured play, baking, messy play. The
children spend lot's of time in the huge garden, which is equipped with lots of play items.
My Daughter's key worker keeps her EYFS record up to date and this is all done on tapestry, so you can view it at home.
The manager and deputy are always around and know the children which is a lovely personal approach.
I highly recommend Ledsham Park and feel very grateful to have such wonderful and creative carers for my child.

Both my children attend Ledsham Park and have done since they were 6 months and 2 years old. They've been going for 18 months now and they love it there, they settled in very quickly. The staff are all wonderful. They care so much about each child and many have formed strong bonds with my children which
gives me comfort and peace of mind. The garden is fantastic they spend lots of time outside and they're constantly doing activities. I would recommend to anyone.

Ledsham has been a massive part of our lives since our first child was born. Both children absolutely love going and look forward to new, fun and creative opportunities that they are provided with. All of the staff are kind and caring and I know they are well looked after and cared for. I feel like
it’s like a second home for them.
The manager is so approachable and is always on hand to help out with any queries. I would not put my children anywhere else as they are happy and cared for well with knowledgable and happy staff who enjoy their jobs!

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.988)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.988) out of 10 for S4YC @ Ledsham Park Day Nursery 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 8 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 4.938 for S4YC @ Ledsham Park Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (90 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.938
  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 4.05 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for S4YC @ Ledsham Park Day Nursery is based on 8 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.65
    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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.4
  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.
