Meadow Kindergarten is quietly located off Blackpool’s Whitegate Drive and provides affordable childcare in a friendly, warm, homely atmosphere.

The nursery is housed in a single storey property and comprises of two buildings, one with the baby unit and Toddlers rooms, and a designated Preschool room. There is also a large outdoor play area/garden, that is separated into two sections to keep the older and younger children safe while being able to play freely.

Meadow Kindergarten understands the importance of a balanced and healthy diet, particularly in the early stages of physical development for a child. The nursery and pre-school offer activities that are created to enable children to gain knowledge and understanding of life topics through fun everyday activities.

Look forward to you coming and looking round this beautiful setting and meeting the team.

My son has been attending for 6 months now and the progression he has shown in all areas of development is amazing. All the staff are so helpful and communication is great. The app keeps me at ease so I’m not worrying and I know what he’s getting up to. Overall a great nursery with great staff, my son
is coming on leaps and bounds!

My daughter started this nursery in September 2021. The staff are absolutely amazing with her and understand her health needs. All the staff put all of their love, care and affection into the children. We always get a warm welcome as soon as the front door is opened and you just get a family feeling
from the nursery. 5* all round.

I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent. The staff are of a high quality with a very caring nature. Nothing is too much trouble. My son struggles socially and needs extra help. The nursery have worked closely with myself and other professionals to make sure everything possible is being done
for my son. He absolutely loves going to nursery. It's fairly priced and a wide variety of food for the children. Thank you to all the staff you are amazing!

Meadow Nursery are a great nursery and I feel extremely confident leaving my children in their care. They are the right amount of caring and cuddles and just the right amount of learning and play.


They have been in the babies room and toddler 2s room and have enjoyed both.


My twin's keyworkers

have been amazing with my little ones.
I receive videos and updates on them which I Iove seeing throughout my day.


They also use a parent app which provides live updates on how much food your child has eaten to whether they have visited the toilet.


I chose the right nursery for my little ones and if I have any more children I would choose them again.

I would recommend Meadow Day Nursery to any parent. They are welcoming to both child and parent which, as a parent makes you feel able to ask questions and not feel intrusive as I have in the past with other nurseries. My daughter has been here since April and I can now understand exactly what she wants
(she’s not even 2). She is so confident and happy to be going into nursery. As a family, we have been through a tough year and the nursery has helped support us immensely. The staff and the premises are lovely and we are grateful to have them. Without charging ridiculous fee’s, they have managed to provide a fantastic caring practice.

Amazing nursery. My little boy feels so happy and secure there. The staff are really caring and attentive. There is always an engaging range of activities and learning for the children. Communication is excellent. Everyone is really friendly and are always willing to help and chat whatever the matter.

My kid really loves his time at Meadows! All the staff seem so happy to see him when he arrives! Very good price, considering the long day and nappies and wipes are included, which is good. Also, the manager is extremely helpful and replies to any questions in an instant.

I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery to send their child here. My little girl has attended since she was 5 months old from the baby room and now she is in preschool, and she loves the garden. She absolutely loves attending. Through each room within the setting the love and support
my child has been shown is second to none, to the point where she considers her key workers her best friends. Her meals and daily activities are always communicated to me via her book or the app which is great. I love seeing photos of what she’s doing throughout the day on Facebook too. The managers are always approachable with any concerns or queries and the whole team are just great.

Fabulous nursery. My grandson attends at present after recommendations from my son, whose daughter attended. The way he has come on is amazing. His social skills and the learning he is receiving without realizing is tremendous. The staff are always approachable and food is very nutritious with a regular
menu change.

Since my daughter started pre-school the staff have been amazing and made sure when she got herself worked up when we leave her, they reassured her and dealt with her calmly and patiently. The staff are very helpful and supportive with any problems we may have or had since she has started. The staff
are always dressed well-presented. This is probably the best nursery she has been to by far and I am happy to keep her in Meadow Kindergarten until next year.

The staff at Meadows Kindergarten are amazing! My daughter started in the Baby room, moved up to Toddlers and is now in Preschool. She has had a close bond with her key workers in each setting calling them her best friends, which makes me so happy and it’s reassuring as a parent to know that she is
settled and happy too. She has so much fun and has made lots of friends. She is so excited to tell me what she has done or what she has made when I pick her up. I can’t recommend Meadows Kindergarten enough, I feel that the staff there are so lovely and definitely go above and beyond.

When collecting my little girl from nursery she comes out beaming and smiling saying how much fun she's had. Before reaching the end of the car park she will be asking to go back in!


Some days when she's a little tired and not wanting to go in, the staff are lovely and make sure she doesn't get too

sad.


She has developed so much since starting nursery and it's really showing.

Such lovely, friendly staff! Also greeted at the door with a smile. They have made us all very welcome since joining and nothing is too much!
My little girl was upset starting nursery but she has grown to love the staff so quickly and goes with a smile now. Observations and pictures are frequent and
it is clear the children do such fun activities. I know I can be pretty fussy and I wouldn't send my daughter anywhere else!

I cannot thank the Meadows Kindergarten team enough for the help and support they have given my niece the last year. She absolutely loves the nursery and has formed a new bond with her new key worker who she absolutely loves. She loves going in early and seeing her friend who plays with her and loves
the new play area. She has come on so much and can’t wait to see her progress before school this year with their help. The best nursery and I highly recommend to anyone.

Our 2 girls have attended Meadow Kindergarten since the age of 4 months and the staff and manager continue to amaze us with just how fantastic they are. Not only are they amazing with our children, ensuring they start and finish the day smiling and happy but they make the effort to reassure us as anxious
parents by taking the time to listen to us. It is clear the staff at this nursery are passionate about providing quality care and education for our precious little ones with an understanding of just how precious they are. Thank you Meadow Kindergarten!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.971)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.971) out of 10 for Meadow 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 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 4.971 for Meadow Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (302 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 311 Ratings = 4.971
  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 Meadow Nursery 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 84 number of registered child places is 16.8, 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.
