Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
An excellent, nurturing setting with skilled staff, who consistently go over and above to provide a safe and stimulating environment for my little girl.
I'm always kept in the loop with current themes via a newsletter and updates on the app; photos of my child undertaking learning activities enable
us to share in her learning.
External providers regularly come in to enrich opportunities; she loves the weekly music and football sessions.
Visiting the library, local care home and a nearby school have been recent highlights for my little girl.

Fabulous setting. Our children settled very quickly at Ladybirds. The staff are warm and caring and our children are excited to go in on a morning and are happy when we collect them. They are both learning new things everyday and progressing well.

Review from A O (Father of Child) published on 18 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Choosing a nursery school is a high-stakes decision, but this school has made it an easy one. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted by a serene and inviting environment that feels like a second home.
What truly sets them apart is the balance of heart and intellect. The supportive staff go above
and beyond, treating every child with genuine warmth and patience. This care is backed by a robust curriculum that challenges my son daily, fostering both curiosity and critical thinking.
Most importantly, I am deeply impressed by their commitment to high moral standards. They aren't just teaching ABCs; they are nurturing character, kindness, and integrity. Seeing my son thrive in such a safe, values-driven space gives me immense peace of mind. Highly recommended!
Thank you Ladybirds Day Nursery.

Both of my grandchildren have attended this nursery from 9 months old until starting school. My youngest grandson is still there. The facilities at ladybirds and the staff are absolutely fantastic, it's a happy safe place for the children and they blossom into clever independent individuals and are
well prepared for when they start full time school.
Kylie and the staff go that extra mile and it's so lovely to hear the sound of laughter and children playing when you lock up and drop off.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have 2 boys at the nursery and they love coming! We have now had experience of all the room and the consistency in training, flexibility and care is amazing as well as support while children are moving through rooms in setting! Staff clearly know the children's individual needs and how to support
them.
The children have so many well planned out activities as well as lots of extras such as music and sports groups.
The whole team at ladybirds have always been approachable, caring and supportive to not just the children but us as parents.
I have two very happy boys so that leaves me a happy mum knowing they are in very good hands and they will come home with something exciting to tell me about their days! Which is what you need after a day working. Thank you to everyone at Ladybirds.

My son attends LadyBirds and I can say he went from never leaving me, too absolutely loving leaving me to go to nursery. The staff support you and your child. Whenever we have had other sibling issues I have always been able to count on them to give me a helping hand. They have my child eating everything
possible when he would never eat anything before! He now socialises with other children where he didn't at all before.

Ladybirds have been a massive support for me and my child. We recently went through a difficult time involving a custody issue. Ladybirds were amazing, offering support and being flexible to suit our unusual situation. Thanks to them, my child had consistency, support and care when he needed it most.
Kylie, Shannon and Tanya have been particularly fantastic - my son loves them! Ladybirds has really aided in my son's development, they provide great activities, good food and love and care. I wouldn't send my little boy anywhere else!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From getting shown around the nursery to my child attending it has been amazing.
Staff are super welcoming & friendly. They genuinely show the children their love and upmost care.
My daughter is only 17 months old but she can't wait to be welcomed at the door by Kylie! This is a massive relief as
leaving your child at any age is awful but seeing the happiness when she gets to the door just shows everything.
Julie makes sure the children's tummies are full with nutritious foods & I love how they make so many different options of food too!
Staff update the app daily with pictures, activities your child has taken part in, when your child naps & nappy changes too. Which is brilliant.
They're amazing with the creativity the children do & are super thoughtful when it's special events, they really do go all out to give the best experience you could ever want for your child.
I'm sad I never knew about this nursery sooner for my older children!
Thank you ladybirds

Ladybirds has helped my daughter grow so much with confidence, knowledge and communication. The staff are patient, kind and very caring. I feel at ease dropping off my child there knowing that she will be well looked after. My son will be joining shortly and I'm sure I will still have the same feelings
towards the place.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We decided to look at Ladybirds after an unsettling previous placement for our son. As you can imagine we had little hope with our walls up. However upon visiting the setting our minds were put at ease almost instantly. Kylie made us welcome and put any/all of our concerns to bed.
My son has come
on such since starting here in the caterpillars room and it's so lovely to see him playing and getting on with other children. To us, socialising is key for a young child!
Their naturing and kind approach is something to be so proud of.
We're so happy with how he's getting along here we've recommended to family and friends!
Well done LadyBirds!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at the nursery since the start of Janaury 2026. It is clear that she has built a positive relationship with the staff that care for her, smiling when she sees them in a morning. I can see from the app that the staff are encouraging her to development, whereby she is becoming more
curious and confident in herself.
The staff are always taking picture of what my little one is up to and you can see from this that she truly enjoys the activities.
The staff are friendly and approachable. Its always nice to read what different food she has tried week by week which is a compliment to the kitchen staff!

We absolutely love this nursery and, most importantly, so do my children. The staff are incredibly kind, caring and supportive, and my kids adore the girls who look after them every day. That alone means everything to me as a parent.
They are also very flexible and helpful when it comes to moving days
around or dealing with changes, which makes life so much easier. There are always lots of activities going on and the children are constantly engaged and learning through play.
I visited five other nurseries before choosing this one and I am so glad I did. The nursery is always clean and fresh. It never smells and you can tell it is well looked after.
A special mention to the chef- J, who is absolutely lovely and does an amazing job with the food. My children eat so well there and always talk about what they've had.
I genuinely feel lucky to have found this nursery and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring, safe and happy place for their child.

Ladybirds is an excellent provision. Our daughter has attended since she was 7months old (now 3) and she has been encouraged to grow and develop. She's grown in confidence and made lovely progress. Daily updates from the staff are always positive. Highly recommended.

We are very happy with the nursery and the care our son receives. The staff are incredibly caring, attentive, and always make the children feel safe and supported.


Our son absolutely loves going to nursery and comes home happy every day. It's clear that he enjoys his time there, and we love seeing

how excited he is to show us the things he has done and learned during the day.


We also really appreciate the variety of food provided. The meals are well balanced, with a great mix of vegetables and nutritious options, which is very reassuring as a parent.


Overall, we are very pleased with the nursery and grateful for the wonderful environment the staff create for the children.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.941)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.941) out of 10 for Ladybirds 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 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 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 4.941 for Ladybirds Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (420 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 444 Ratings = 4.941
  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 Ladybirds Day Nursery is based on 37 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 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 67 number of registered child places is 13.4, which has been reached with 37 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.
